fs real time issue

Featured Replies

It is not the drive that is the problem ... it is the folder .....  Program Files (x86)

 

If you put it C:\ FSRT or the default name rather  it is ok .. it is not owned by Windows.

I did try install on programme files rather than Program Files(x86) - no effect

 

I have just sent my PC for a full virus scan, it should be back with me hopefully the lastest tomorow evenning.

 

 

Thanks

Let us know when you get a reply from FSRT Support.

Vonmar,

 

Thanks, but I have emailed FSRT since last Friday, Monday, Tuesday, but no reply, very poor service from them and I would avoid them in future.

Are you sure your e-mail was sent ?

 

And, a reply from them could have gone to your spam folder rather than your normal in box?

I'm going to throw in some legacy FS time-sync knowledge that may not be widely known anymore - yes, possibly lost to previous FS ages/versions.  :P

 

The long-standing issue pertains specifically to those who have/use AI aircraft in their Sims (FS2002/2004/FSX).  Whether the time is synced by FSRT or FSUIPC, or others, the micro time-correction they issue into the sim can and will cause AI aircraft to group (flock) into and around airports - especially Mega airports with large AI fleets.  You may notice on some occasions what appears to an invasion of AI aircraft inbound to your current airport.  This is caused by the time-sync process stuttering the AI engine.

 

To the best of my knowledge, this issue was never addressed by any time-sync utility (and I've owned/used most of them over the years).  Corrected time-zone files don't seem to be an issue, but messing with the internal FS clock can have unpredictable results.

Al,

 

Will not using AI correct the DST problem he is having now?

No, the AI flocking is simply a side affect of continuous time injection (syncing). His issue sounds like a time-zone file problem, which I know FSRT changes/updates as well. Maybe it's outdated?

I did try and disable WOI but no effect, I am not sure if it's a Timezone setting somewhere, obviously my PC won't be back until tomorrow hopefully before 1800 UK time, will try FSRT again and their support, nothing in my inbox or junk.

 

Thanks

 

 

Jordanal,

 

The Timezone files I use are the ones given with the latest version of FSRT

PC is back, it had a virus, but all cleaned out now, still no changes with the FSRT, is there a replacement Timezone I could use to override my existing,

 

Thanks

Vonmar,

 

I hope you realize that in posting the contents of your fsrealtime.ini file, you've exposed your registration details. You most likely will have to contact Josh for a new registration key as that one is compromised now. :/

I did not know the Reg key was in there ... or I would have not posed it .

Thanks for the heads up.

 

I think my post was was deleted .. will have to check again.

I did write to Josh and tell him of my mistake here.

 

Also, the OP has his key in his ini post #49. So it should be edited also.

FSRT is now new version 1.95.5

Thanks,

 

Sorry it was my fault, should have never posted those details online, I did report it to Avsim to remove those, although it had been on for some time, I have also made contact with Joshua and explained what has happened,

 

It's still a big mystery my FSRT isn't doing what it should be doing, I have got the latest version, I have also shown some screenshots to Joshua, I have asked him if it is ok to post his replies to me on the forum and he is happy for me to do that.

 

Indicated by Joshua that it is a hard wired bug in FS, just cannot understand how some people's machine with the same FSX don't have this issue.

 

Joshua responses below.

 

  

 

I see what you’re talking about. The first screenshot is simply alerting you that the scenery cannot be changed whilst a flight simulator is running. In the second screenshot, I can see that you’re using a -1 hour offset to compensate however the UTC reported by the sim is still zero. This is the hard-wired bug I’ve been talking about all along. Have you tried moving your aircraft to a different airport within the UK?

FSX is an older flight simulator that was originally released in 2006. If there’s been any changes in the law to the dates that Summer Time take effect since the release of FSX, they wouldn’t be in the simulator and even then, there really isn’t any way to fix the dates when Daylight Savings Time take effect for certain areas. Other areas, such as parts of South America didn’t have a hard-wired date programmed in and so it was more easily correctable by creating two sets of scenery for the same area and having a configuration utility make the switch to or from DST accordingly.

 

I’ve had multiple frustrations with this exact issue through the years of my passion for flight simulation software technology.
