Hi,

All of you having issues with the latest widefmgs version do two things please:
1) paste the contents of the widefmgs window (server and clients) here (only the first error messages, no need for 20 minutes worth of error messages...)
2) Check and RECHECK that you do not have any firewall issues. There were changes to used ports and stuff, it could be a firewall is blocking the apps.

Hi JL,

these are screenshots from the windfmgs window.

Server:
wideFMGS_onServer.PNG

Client:
wideFMGS_onClient.PNG

Obviously there is a problem. When using the previous version, I am getting only "connected" messages once for each of the 4 ports. With the latest version I am getting "connected" and right after that "disconnected". This is repeating after approx 1 second.

I checked my Internet Security software which does not have a firewall on its own but just relies on the Win firewall. I have switched off the Windows firewall, but no change. Also my security software does not highlight anything like a blocked application.

Thanks
Stefan

I need the log at the begining of the issues. With the other ports.

Hi JL,

thanks for the update. I am currently at work now, so will be able to check this evening.

One thing I noticed: I am starting FMGS on Server first (by using Starter.EXE), then I start the modules on the client manually, first one is WideFMGS on the client. When I have done that, both WideFMGS logs show "connected". As soon as I start the overhead on the client, the connection is breaking.

Don't know if this is important, just wanted to let you know.

I will report once I have updated to the new version.

Regards
Stefan

I found another bug, which I'm pretty sure caused the error you had. I put a new update online just now with a fix.

Regards,

Hi Jl,
i install your new update and i got now the same issue with the connection between the client PC and server, like the other guys.
First I start the server, after 30 sec. connecting the clients with the server, all clients have been disconnect and didn't reconnected. The firewall I exclude because it works for 30 seconds. In the time were the clients (like the overhead) are connected with the server, I put the ext. power on the fsx on, but the OVHD doesn't recognized that.


I hope you can find a way to fix this, because I'd like to make an online flight this evening. ) otherwise... Is there a way to go back before your last update?
If you need some log files please let me know.


One more thing:
I asked some times ago about the special frequencies for the radio panel, because sometime when I fly online, an ATC got the frequency like 118.700, but I can't set it.


King regards

Hi JL -- did one test flight --

- FMGS will also not start if no joysticks are plugged in and will give an error message (with the configure tool you get the repeat error box)

- Repeat flaps sounds are there again from cold and dark until engine start.

Tried some alpha protection -- surprised that flap retraction is already implemented when in A.Floor

Also look at some light logic and good to see that strobe lights when set to auto only turn on when in the air.

Tried an asymetrical landing (left engine to idle and reverse, and right engine left at CLB) -- surprised that the aircraft still stayed on the runway. If you remember there was a real life tragedy with this pilot error.

Will do some more testing -- have some issues sometimes when descending in managed mode when the aircraft is pitched to such a degree that I get 6000 v/s.

Thanks again....recently bought PSX (747 avionics suite), but I still keep on coming back to the Bus...I guess I just love flybywire!

Time to build that cockpit...

Edit:
thanks for you new update and hard work jl!!!
I have install it ( is this right, that only the OVHD had making an update?) and the OVHD client didn't connect to the server now.
