FSUIPC: replacement test version 3.424

[Peter Dowson]

Hi folks,

Some or all of the interim test versions 3.412-3.423 of FSUIPC will not run
correctly on an original FS2004 9.0 installation -- they crash on FS
loading.

This was due to a very silly typo in my code and I apologise to all those who
are still stuck on FS9.0. I don't understand why you are, but it's a good
job some are so that things like this get discovered before full releases
are made.

Please replace and interim version with the one attached, 3.424. I've tested
this in 9.0 and 9.1, and even a mangled mixture of both.

Regards,

Pete

Ok Peter as it seems Matt has gone to bed, where I should be, this has fixed

my problem. FS starts up and runs as it should.

Why 9.0 rather then 9.1

Simple....... I don't want run a original CD ROM every time I start up
FS9.1, unless you force me to Pete:) As much as I start it up, working on
my project..... they DO get damaged.

So you use the 9.0 no-CD hack with 9.0, whilst I use the 9.1 no-CD hack with
9.1! Still no reason.

Unlike you, I don't (just) use no-CD to save CDRom usage. I have to use it in
order to develop and test FS software. The normal version does not only
prevent running without the CD inserted, it also prevents running debuggers
with FS, and also scrambles the FS9.EXE too much for it to be disassembled
so I can work out how to interface FSUIPC to it. Without the clever No-CD
hacks there'd be no FSUIPC or WideFS, so it's a good job they always appear
within a couple of days of Microsoft's releases.

Regards,

Pete

Oops, my ignorance just showed up..... again:)

9.1 is installed... and all is well!!

Thank you Pete.
