Hello,
I recently discovered this site while looking for ways to update the outdated FS9 navigation world, after returning to my simulator following some years of absence. Great stuff !! Thanks indeed for keeping FS9 (and FSX) alive for those of us that insist on running sims on 10+ year old platforms.
I downloaded and started using FS Control, and I find it particularly useful and a very nice and feature-loaded app. While it is running fine through FSUIPC on both FS9 and FSX (running on the same machine with the sim), when I tried to run it on a networked pc, it fails to connect to WideClient (using FSX and the latest registered version of FSUIPC/WideFS), giving the following error:
'No Com. Error communicating with FSUIPC or WideClient [Error cause: FSUIPC Read/Process error]'
I am pretty sure it does not have to do with the network configuration between FSUIPC (WideFS) and WideClient, as at the same moment that FS Control fails to connect, other apps manage to do so and get through to the sim, no problem.
I was wondering if anyone has encountered something like that in the past, although I did not manage to find anything similar posts in the forum. I would really like to be able to use it on a networked pc, because I run FSX full screen.
Thanks
NikosK
