Hi,
Now the network.cfg is at the root of all the different clients, so only one file shared by all clients. It should do the trick ;)

Hi,
Sorry for the delay,
After some testing, the result is always the same, is not possible to use AP in FSX.
Please solve the problem.
It does not happen with anyone else?
Have a nice year.

Hi,
what version of FSUIPC do you use? it might be a clue...
For now I really don't see what can possibily be wrong... I tried several flights with FSX without any of your elevator problems.
Maybe try this ACFT: http://www.jeehell.org/iFDG A320-211 Air France.zip it's the exact one I use (except I removed sounds...)
JL
Hello Jeehell.
I use FSUICP 4.30
I try with aircraft that you sugest but nothing.
I Remember you that in FS2004 I have not problem.

LM
Hi,
Pleade try updating to FSUIPC 4.60.
JL
Hello Jeehell.
I tryed with FSUIPC 4.60a but without sucess. With this version, the throtlle move in E/WD but dont acelerate the aircraft, the fcu dont control the aircraft and joystick dont move the ailerons, ruder or others superficies.
Regards
LM
It looks like you didn't launch the AP/FBW software??
Hi Jeehell!
You are doing really a great job, but I have one request:
Why are the configXXX.cfg files in HEX format? Everytime a new version needs to be installed I have to place and resize all instruments from the scratch. Is there a way to enter these values manually (pos x,y / size x,y) like the parameters in the network config file?
Thanks
Christian
Hi,
Actually you can copy the configXXX.cfg file from the previous version. Maybe in next version I'll do it as a text file.
Cheers,
JL
Thats good news. So until new version the structure of the config files will not change.
Thanks
Christian
Hello Jeehell.
I tryed with FSUIPC 4.60a but without sucess again. With this version if I close AP.FBW.exe I can move ailerons and acelerate aircraft, if I run AP.FBW.exe the the throtlle move in E/WD but dont acelerate the aircraft, the fcu dont control the aircraft and joystick dont move the ailerons, ruder or others superficies.
I think that exist disconnection between AP/FBW and FSUIPC or other. This capture the signal but dont transmit.
Can you help?
Regards
LM
Hello,
All I can tell you right now is to wait for next version, it will come out soon (probably tomorrow). I completely changed the joystick and analog axis system.
JL
Hi all,
I just finished the B17 version.
I completely reworked the joysticks/THR LVR logic.
Now you need to use an external software to assign the joysticks to use in the FMGS, it's called FMGS Config.exe, and is located in the FMGS Server folder.
It adds support for the dual stick (but not priorities yet).
I also tried to correct a few other bugs, check the readme/manual for more info!
This is still quite experimental, you may experience some troubles with it so be careful to keep the previous version!
And as usual bug reports are welcome!

Hi again!
I think that my problem is in FSUIPC, You are right, the version 4.30 or before not work, with 4.60a in my last tests I had positive results.
I will continue with more tests and I tell you something later.
Regards
LM
Aeropt: ok good to hear.
For everyone, it seems the B17.1 OVHD is bugged, you can use the B17.0 one as it is 100% compatible; I'll try update a fix tomorrow.
JL
Thank You JL.
Hi,
Just corrected the ovhd bug along with a couple small bugs.
Same link as previous release:

Hello…
Firstly I would like to say one thing to J.L : CONGRATULATIONS FOR ALL YOUR WORK !!!
I’m a French new user who discovered B16.2 version yesterday…
I was told today about the B17.1 and downloaded it on this afternoon.
I’m not very used with the software, and the French Guide is very useful for me.
I run AP/FBW and FMGSServer on my FSX computer (Windows 7 64 bits / FSUIPC 6.4).
OVHD is installed on another PC (WinXP + latest Wide FS),
Captain PFD/ND works on a third PC (WinXP + latest WideFS)
Here are my tests :
FSX is running ; as soon as I run OVHD, the IFDG A320 reactors stop : okay, OVHD is rightly connected to FSX.
As soon as I select BATT to put ELEC ON, I got this error message on the OVHD PC : “Access violation of address 00000000. Read of address 00000000”.
Then I launched FMGSServer and got the following : “Access violation of address 0053AB04 in module FMGSServer.exe . Read of address 00000000”.
Are these some results of wrong actions from me, or are these bugs ?
Regards.
Michel.
P.S : I hope that this message will be correctly posted (I was rejected at 3 times after writing, with “you are not logged” messages…)
Hi Michel,
First welcome here ;)
Concerning the OVHD error, I've just corrected it, download the package again: http://www.jeehell.org/A320FMGS_B17.1.zip
As for the FMGS Server one, the most probable cause is you didn't configure your joysticks with FMGS config prior to launching the server?
I also have received your mail, I'll answer to you right away:
Cheers,
JL
Hi J-L !
Thank you...
Effectively, OVHD works right with this new version just downloaded.
About FMGSconfig, OUPS ! I only missed it, I didn't remember it in the B16 version...
Now I've set my old Logitech joystick and it's small potentiometer...
No more error messages at this time : I've just started my 2 reactors on, with OVHD, and all seems to work right ! It's a nice beginning !! :-D
PFD and ND are working too, on the third PC...
Let's see tomorrow for AP and other settings
Good night,
Michel
Hi jeehell, I was just wondering... I have 3 computers, I have 2 joysticks and both of them are on separate client computers. Its obviously possible to setup the joysticks individually on their separate computers, but is it possible to send their individual inputs to the main computer running flight simulator? (My client computers don't have Flight Simulator installed).
According to a post on airliners.net, if both pilots are using the sidesticks, then the inputs are added up (or canceled out if opposite inputs are input). You can lock out the other sidestick by pressing the red button. However, I don't quite see how it's possible to be able to model this in FS if you have 2 joysticks on the same machine. This is my argument based on authenticity. The second argument is a bit more practical. Simply put, my joysticks are old and only work via old game ports which windows 7 no longer supports and my other 2 computers recognise those old joysticks on XP no problems at all and I was kinda hoping it would be possible to get them to work over a network. I tried using FSRemoteJoy, however, I'm pretty sure that method will not work. I think your program has the potential to have this feature included although I'm not quite sure how difficult it would be to implement and I was kinda hoping it wouldn't be too difficult seeing as how it's already possible to run the various panels via a network.
Also, I installed v17.1 and I'm getting an error in a loop...
"Access violation at address 00562000 in module FMGS Server.exe. Read of address 0000000". I'm forced to either kill it through task manager or wait for it to kill itself. It happens as soon as I open the FMGS server window. I wasn't getting this error when I didn't have FSUIPC installed but as soon as I installed it and tried opening FSX, I got the error. Any ideas on how to fix this one? I think I was getting a similar problem on past versions but I somehow managed to rid myself of it but this time I'm at a bit of a loss and was hoping you could point me in the right direction.
Hi,
concerning the joysticks, for now it's not possible to use them over a network, and I'm not sure it is worth adding more strain to the network with such a feature. Did you consider a cheap gameport to USB converter? if you really need that option, it's not technically real difficult, but don't expect it in the next weeks. As for the dual inputs adding up yes it is modeled, in fact I no longer use FS to acquire joystick data, I get it straight out of windows system, so as easy as x+y.
Which probably brings an answer to your FMGS server error: did you notice the new FMGS config software? it has to be launched (and setup of the joysticks done) BEFORE you launch the FMGS server, otherwise you get this kind of errors.
Cheersn
JL
Oh, ok, thanks. I guess it's time to try to get the adapters :).
Hi Jeehell
is there a way to merge PmSystem from Project Magenta with your add-on? Maybe through offsets?
Thanks for your work!! :)
Ciccio
Hi Ciccio,
No it's not possible, sorry.
JL
Hi Jee ****
Maybe you have heard a lots of this type of "Congrats , good job" so let ad one more
: "Excellent job, congratulations and keep up the good work"
Im working with FSUIPC 3.98 / FS 2004 / Windows 7.
I have heard that windows 7 and Vista protects the program files folder and you need to use the Run as Admin feature to let fsuipc to work correclty. (ti is in the FSUIPC documentation for Windows 7 users)
I decided to reinstall FS2004 in C:/ root then launched FS, Fsuipc is running, launched the airplane then open the server and the overhead module , I made sure that all electrical is on and the ADIRS are aligned, but Im concerned with seeing that FMS Server still shows "Not connected to FSUIPC". and the rest of opened modules appears as Connected, also all the displays appears as black.
I have re read your procedure 5 times by making sure that overhead is providing electricity, aligned the ADIRS but it seems to be a fsuipc problem
Is there any work around for this?
Thanks in advance
Adonis
Hy at first you have done a great job but i have an problem. I start A320 server as it said in the manual the OVHD works but EWD PFD and ND are black and no mather what i do there is no picture. Excuse me for my bad English..
Regards Jurica
Hi Adonis,
Windows 7 is most probably not the source of your problem, I run it with both FSX and FS9 without troubles.
How many computers do you have?
When you say FSUIPC is running, what do you mean by that? as FSUIPC when installed is part of FS (I mean FS loads itself the FSUIPC dll).
Usually when you first start FS after installinf FSUIPC it asks you if you want to let that process run, did that happen?
You can also try to resintall FSUIPC...
JL
Hi Shacy,
Did you start anything related to electricty on the OVHD panel?
You need to either:
-start the APU
-connect the EXT PWR (through FS modules menu) and switch it ON
JL
yes i have....i turn on the generators and it give me 29 volts and it works can i have all displays without enganging ovhd???
cheers
Hi
Ok you've probably only switched the batteries ON, which gives 29V on the displays.
To switch the instruments on, you need more power in order not to empty the batteries, so either from ground connection, or the APU or even the Engines.
To start APU, you need to make sure fuel pumps are ON, then click APU master to switch it ON then APU start, and wait for the APU to start (around 30s).
You can also check the FAQ at the end of the user guide (and the whole userguide as well ;) ) for more info.
No sorry, it's meant to work as closely to the real ACFT as possible, so no comrpomises here.Quote:
can i have all displays without enganging ovhd???
Cheers,
JL
Hi Shacy, / Jurica
Please make sure to turn on the Bateries , then ALIGN the Intertial system. (use the fast align) on - off - on quickly.
Once the platform is aligned the PFD and ND will show the images.
Jeehell I finally solved my problem, it was fsuipc that was not connecting. I created a firewall rule for port 8003 and it worked.
Regards
Adonis
Thanks Jeehell
Yes fsuips was part of the modules folder. And it seemed like loaded but actually it was not.
I reinstalled fsuipc worked, but was not consistent.
Finally I added the rule in the firewall for fsuipc and opened all ports, I focused on port 8003
Then It worked.
Thanks Jeehell I appreciate your kind help.
Adonis you're welcome ;)
i know that is off topic but could you recomend software on which can i have ND EWD and PFD Airbus style
well..... VASfmc, AST or PM, that's pretty much it...
Good day Jeehell.
Hope you are enjoying a nice Saint Valentines day with your friends and familiy in the charming France!
I have some news, I do not if it is actually a bug but here is description of a possible FSUIPC problem.
1) I installed FS2004 on a clean windows 7 environment, then registered Fsuipc 3.98
2) I extracted the A320FMGS v 17 to a local folder.
3) Launched fs2004 and the fmgs server, and I got the NOT CONNECTED TO FSUIPC.
4) Closed FS2004 and server.
5) I removed the key for FSUIPC then started FS2004 and FMGS server
6) The server is NOW able to connect to FSUIPC, when FSUIPC is a non registered version.
Also I moved to a Win XP sp3 computer , installed Fs2004 Fsuipc and the same error occured.
Have you heard of something like that?
Best regards
Adonis
Hello,
No never heard of that.
Unfortunately, my FS9 FSUIPC is unregistered (as I have the FSX one registered, didn't want to buy the FS9 version as well...).
But I can assure that under FSX, the registered version works so it's weird. I will try to check if other people I know use FS9 have such problems (if anyone here is reading that)...
JL
Good day Jeehell.
Everytime I get deeper into your software I amaze more and more ! Excellent.
I don't know if someone asked you this in the past.. do you have some plan or considered working with X-plane - xpuipc?
Just wonder the marvel of having Jeehell A320 and Xplane running together, Stunning!
Best regards
Adonis
Hi,
As of now, I'm not planning to add support for another simulator.
If I one day consider adding X-plane support, it'll be when we know for sure that both FS franchise and FSUIPC are dead (so let's first wait for MS Flight! release ;)). And at that time, I'm pretty sure I will not go the XUIPC way, but that's another story ;-)
Cheers
JL
