Active Sky Advanced / FSX problem:

Featured Replies

Jim Skorna has been kind and patient enough to get me going with ASA in spite of my ignorance or overlooking the obvious. We are having a dialogue on the AvSim HIFI forum. Unfortunately, I still have one problem he has implied others have run into. However, he did not mention their solutions, so that feedback was not returned to him assuming anyone found a solution.I am running ASA on a client computer which communicates through WideFS for FS9, and is supposed to be communicating through SimConnect for FSX. According to Jim, SimConnect is setup correctly and the ASA_Log.txt file seems to confirm that ("SimConnect SP1 instantiated!"). Never heard that word before?1. ASA and FS9 function normally and I get good ASA updated weather in the FS9 mode for FS9.2. ASA seems to function fine, but the ASA defined weather in the FSX mode never displays in FSX.3. In the ASA FS9 mode with WideFS connected, I get updated ASA weather running FSX.I first sent Jim an ASA_Log.txt file with an automatic downloads interval of 5 minutes. At his request, I then tried with a 30 minute interval. Last night I started up ASA with this 30 minute interval, then started up FSX and went to bed. A portion of that log is attached below: The only weather FSX ever got was the default fixed MSFSX weather, which automatically changes to User Defined weather when ASA weather is transmitted in the FS9 mode (Should do the same thing in the FSX mode).If anyone has been down this road and has any idieas for a solution, it would be greatly appreciated.Respectfully:RTH12:10 AM - ASA load commencing...12:10 AM - Verifying Active Sky Advanced License12:10 AM - FSX Path Value = Y:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\12:10 AM - FSX My AppData Path Value = X:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\12:10 AM - FSX My Docs Path Value = X:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\My Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\12:10 AM - ASA settings have been loaded...12:10 AM - Initializing ASA12:10 AM - FS station database update not needed (unchanged)...12:10 AM - World Magnetic Model has been loaded...12:10 AM - Wx Station Database loaded: 9961 station(s)12:10 AM - Airports Database loaded...12:10 AM - Loading Additional Weather Stations...12:10 AM - SimConnect found and initialized12:11 AM - ASA controls initialized...12:11 AM - ASA v11.0.0.433 Copyright
