SB RELAY Problems :s

[Guest ben_hewitt]

Hey guys i am having problems connecting FS to VATSIM..i follow the instructions with SBRELAY to the letter ....but sometimes when i connect FS to the SBRELAY session i the connect SB to the session and when i try to go back into FS it is locked and wont maximise..meaning i cant get into FS without closing it via task manager. Sometimes while flying i come back to desktop and then when i want to get back into FS i can't cause it has locked up again..any idea what im doing wrong or any settings that could fix this?System details:P4 2.8HZ1GB DDR RAM9700PROWindows XPThanks in advance, I have never had this prob with FS2002 before...

Hi Ben,You wrote:"I have never had this prob with FS2002 before..."Are you trying to use SBRelay with FS2002?

Ben,Ok - let's try and get your problem sorted out.I understand you are using FS9.- Are you using SBHOST.EXE or HOSTSB.DLL?- Are you running FS9 in windowed mode or full screen?Let's try and find out what's happening.

It only happens when i use SBHOST.EXE outside of FS in full screen mode as soon as SB connects to SBRelay i cant get back into FS because it has crashed...I prefer to use SBHost.exe Thanks :)

Ben,How does it work when you run in windowed mode?My configuration is FS9 in windowed mode with the host.exe file (the .dll has never worked well for me) and it seems fine.I could be wrong but I seem to recall that FS9 works better in windowed mode. I hope someone can either confirm that or tell me I'm wrong as I am not 100%.Hope that helps.
