JeeHell FMGS on a remote Computer

[Fritz]

Hi,

does anyone run JeeHell FMGS on a remote Computer? I tried, but cannot connect to the visual Computer (Prepar3D v4). Do I need to install simconnect on the remote Computer?

THX and regards

Hi Ben,

Since my changeover to run FMGS on a dedicated computer, some things do not seem to work anymore. I guess it is FSUIPC5 but I'm not sure.
I made some assignments to FSUIPC offsets in SIOC on a client. These will no longer work. WideFS is connected to the visual PC.
FSUIPC support is only installed on the visual PC. Should I also install FSUIPC support on the FMGS server PC
or is the FSUIPC support only necessary on FMGS server PC?

FSUIPC5 should be compatible (not tested yet).
I looked at the installer code, it seems it will install only the correct files on the FMGS server PC for now (as it was a must to have the server on P3D PC then...), so for now you should only install it on FMGS Server PC and you will need wideFS there as well...
I will correct the package for next release.

For the generation of the bin files in the Navdata folder, the path to the FS and the scenery.cfg should be specified.
The bin files are generated by the FMGS server. If FMGS Server is running on a dedicated computer, then the paths to the visual PC have to be entered?

Is the installation of the flight models on the dedicated computer really necessary
They are only needed in the visual computer right?

Hello,
I need some help. I tried to use simconnect like the Tutorial of Soarbywire. I had no success. If I start FMGS on client PC it opens windows with Access denied and Access violation.
I use win10 on both PC. Something different then?
When I installed simconnect there was no .xml file created. I did it manually. Hope this was ok...

this sounds it´s more likely an issue of access rights in your network-setup. Network in WIN 10, especially after the October18 update by Microsoft, is a little bit tricky because of some important changes in the security settings in the network.

First you have to make sure, that FMGS and P3D always run as administrator. On all PC´s in the network you have to make sure, that all Clients have read and write, better full access to the necessary subfolders. Like C:\A320FMGS\ and LM P3D etc. Don't forget the related folders in "Documents" and "AppData roaming".

How to setup the access rights in WIN 10, please look into the many many existing threads via Google, because to get this right depends on your personal network and how it´s all connected.

Ok, could solve partly the problem. No Access violation anymore. Now FMGS open normally, but can not find FMGS server anymore.

Hi guys, I tried to follow above guide from Soarbywire. But I don't get a connect from the remote FMGS Computer to the P3D computer.

Could it be, because I still have the FMGS program including the server config installed (but not running!) on my P3d computer? Do I need to uninstall this first? And do I need to install FMGS at all on the P3D computer, if I don't use any of the components, only P3D?

Thanks,
Michael
