November 25, 200718 yr Hello all, I have my Active Sky X on my client PC. All functions work from Active sky X to FSX on my server. The one thing that will not seem to work and just show a blank screen is the X Gauge. I have tried multiple time of uninstalling and re-installing using the XGauge Wizard, and still nothing. I also tried installing manually and still nothing, It seems like it is not receiving any data from ASX. I tried installing Active X on my Server PC and running everything from there and everything worked perfectly. So how can I get this to work over a network. I have tried all the options available to me using the manual.pdf and nothing is helping.Anyone got any ideas?
November 26, 200718 yr Hi Kris,Please try a uninstall and reinstall of just X Gauge through the X Gauge Wizard.Please let us know.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
November 26, 200718 yr Hi Kris,I see that now. If you run the AI traffic program from the client does it run OK?Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
November 26, 200718 yr I dont have any AI traffic on the Client, only on the Server. I have FS Commander, Active Sky X, and X Graphics on the client PC.
November 26, 200718 yr Hi Kris,The AI traffic program that is a part of the SDK that we suggest to use to test your network connection.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
November 26, 200718 yr Testing is successful, all programs work with the WideFS and Simconnect on the network. The only thing that doesn't work is XGauge.
November 26, 200718 yr Hi,Is this with a default plane? So when you click on the power button nothing happens?Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
November 29, 200718 yr I run only default aircrafts mainly the Lear 45 and Mooney. At this time no add-ons installed into FSX (aircrafts). Yes, when I click the power button on Xgauge nothing happens.
November 29, 200718 yr Hi Kris,Please drop Damian a note at: damianc(AT)hifisim.com. I am really out of ideas with this.Thanks,Jimhttp://www.hifisim.com/banners/hifi-community-sigbanner.jpghttp://www.hifisim.com/
November 29, 200718 yr Commercial Member Hi Kris,After reviewing this a bit, I have an assumption and a couple suggestions to get you running...The assumption is that either you have a bad share/path configuration or you have (or had) FSX installed on the client machine at some point and ASX is improperly pointing to that one instead of the true remote FSX installation.Suggestions are to first reset your share for your FS appdata folder (UserAppDataMicrosoftFSX) by removing share and recreating it, ensuring that full write access (allow change files) enabled. Then check the registry key value on the ASX machine: HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareHiFiXEngineAppDataPath and ensure this string value is set to the correct shared path (i.e. myfsxmachineFSX) where myfsxmachine = your fsx computer name and FSX = your share name (should be FSX by default)After doing this, rerun the XGaugeWizard (on the ASX Machine) which should use the same paths (if it asks tell it the correct appdata shared location) and the correct files will be installed.Then run ASX and after a while check for the written mapping image that the gauge uses, which is, on the fsx machine, UserAppDataMicrosoftFSXASXMapImage.jpg.If this is all working correctly the gauge should properly display the imagery. If you have any trouble please write me and I'll assist directly.Best, Damian ClarkHiFi Simulation Technologies
