A320 FMGS beta 30

[Leonidas]

An update is available on the automatic updater. It should correct some WideFMGS issues, enhance CPflight performance and a SD bug (landing gear unlocked).

Hi JL
After this update my EWD and SD are black screens with a Windows socket error on client's desktop. Is there a way to undo this update?

Hi all,

just installed B28, first version, all is running fine. Then updater runs automatically as designed and does its update to B28-3. After that, "no connection to FMGS-Server" and "not connected to simulator" is shown. Any different configuation necessary with this version? (running on W7)

Found out later: starting with the A320 FMGS starter does not work. starting the server out of the directory manually works fine.
Reason was FSUIPCconnect. manually starting FSUIPCconnect solves the problem.

Hi JL,

same problem for me. Since I run the last update, I can´t get FMGS working anymore, as soon I start some modules on the client PC´s the WideFMGSserver on the main PC stops responding. As I haven´t touched any of my settings, I assume it is somehow relate to the last update. In case you would need more information, don´t hesitate to ask

but anyhow, thank you for your excellent work!!!

Hi,

@Patrick: please check your throttle configuration. Especially make sure that during takeoff you engage the takeoff mode => THR LVR in TOGA or FLX (and FLX temperature filled in the MCDU). Check the message #213 of this thread, Startrail had the same issue as you probably have.

@All: I'll look at it...

Cheers,
JL

Hallo Jeehell,

had a full day of test behind me. Great improvements in the FMGC, means many things seems to be working.

But i am also encountered some errors in the FMGC.


_ Hardwaremodule crash with FSCockpit FCU or doesnt reacting suddenly without touching in flight. before i could take of, flight a big distance and everything seems working perfect.

- After loading a flight in FS (repositioning from ground with running engines) i could only command only selected modes in FCU, not any managed mode.

- flightplan suddenly disappear, when i reroute my destination.

some situations are easy to repeat.

By the way depature is for example EDDM8L and Destination have to be the same signature EDDT8L - you write only RW8L ( better RWY8L)

Fuel calculations are to high, but when you fly a longer leg you realize that the fuel consumption seems to be real - you fuel left...

Most of the datas are really realistic...

After this update I can't even turn on batteries. OVHD buttons are not working. Unflyable again

Did you start the server PC first?

@Chris:

- I do not provide support for third party modules such as FSCockpit. If their hardware crash, you should contact them so they can look into it themselves.

- Repositionning the ACFT from the ground to the air without trigerring Take Off phase will always result in managed modes being unavailable. I cannot do much about it, this is realistic simulation, so you cannot just reposition the aircraft somewhere.

- How do you reroute your destination?

-Navdatabase names are not my design, until I can get a better navdata source I will have to keep using what I can get, including the names.

- I'm not sure I understand your point on the fuel? Just so you know, fuel calculations is done according to the FS model and not the real acft data, as it cannot relate accurately.


Best regards,
JL
