Hi allI just bought and installed ASE.I followed the installation instructions.I deleted FSUIPC.dll and FSUIPC.ini from FS9/Modules.Copyied FSUIPC.dll from FS)/Modules/ASV to FS9/modules (ver 3.50). It is registered also.Started ASV, configured it and saved.Started FS9, loaded the aircraft I wanted, set all and prepared for flight.When I hit Ctrl+Tab to return to ASV screen, it dispalyed the message on top "ASV Enhanced - FS Disconneted".On the ASV screen, below "Fetch a report" it displays a message saying "FS is not yet connected -"What am I doing wrong?Please helpJoao Tavares

Hi, -Make sure you press set default button on option, click save and close, (to enable online update)-Make sure you have added ASVE to the firewall.You can use the latest FSUIPC FSUIPC 3.50 from here http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.htmlThanksChris WillisHiFi Simulation Software Team Developerhttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

ChrisI had already done that, it starts online and fetches the 370K file.My Panda firewall is enabling ASV in and out on all ports.Like I said on my previous post, I copyied the FSUIPC.dll that came with ASE(3.50)to the FS9/Modules folder and registered it.I start ASV, then start FS9 and still get the "FS Disconnected" message.What else can I do?TnxJoao

Hi,In the FS04/modules folder please double check and make sure you only have 1 FSUIPC.dll file.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Nope. Only had 1 FSUIPC.dll already.There is 1 FSUI.dll 916Kb created 6/13/2003. Should it be there?Also, WideFS is registered. Any problem with that?The File FSUIPC.key, under "Programs" has an entry for:ActiveRadar.dll = xxxxxxxxxxxx 12 caracthers codeShould there be any other entry for ASV?Please help.Joao

Hi,So you have ASVE installed on a second networked computer?Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Not at all, only have 1 computer. WideFS just happens to be registered. Unregistering it didn't help either.Joao

Hi,Please post your FSUIPC.log file and your ASV.ini file.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Hi,Something is not quite right with your installation of FSUIPC. Move the FSUIPC.ini, FSUIPC.log, and key file out of the modules folder. I know, this just gives you an unregistered copy. Then start ASV and see if they connect.Post back when you get a chance.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Hi JimGuess what? I did that and ASV connects to FS now.Thank you very much.Great support.Joao

Hi,That is great and thanks!Now, put the key file back in to register FSUIPC and see if things are good.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Hi Jim,Putting the .key file back made everything wrong again. I removed it and will address that issue later.Anyway, tnx for your support.Just one last question:My graphics card is far from being a top notch, therefore I now lost about 10fps running ASV.What settings should I adjust to get some fps back without loosing too much of the great wx quality ASV has given me, until I buy a new one?Joao

Hi,Pete will be away until the 14th to deal with your key issue. You might want to generate another by re-entering your registration information in FSUIPC.Enable MIPSLimit cloud layers to 3Set cloud draw distance to 30 in FS04.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg
