Feedback from networked users

[ideoplastic 86]

Since upgrading to P3dv4.3 I have not been able to use any software that resides on the remote PC, such as ActiveSkyP3D4 (updated to v4.3), etc. The error message is that the sim on client cannot be found. Sems to me that Simconnect is not working on remote in this new version, but wanted to check with networked users if they have had similar issues before I post on the P3D forums. Feedback appreciated.

Other issues encountered have been:

P3D hangs during start up and on various ocassions and having to use Delete Generated Files.

Extremely slow loading of sceneries sometimes taking up to 4 minutes.

regards

Your network problem may be causing the other two problems. Ity may be using too many resources trying over and over to connect. Also have a look at your permissions and make sure something did not change them. I had to try a couple of times to get the AS simconnect to update after loading V4.3 of the sim.

Note: not networked but advise still holds. Computer still complained about the AS simconnect utility not updating.

Working fine here, but upgrading the latest release version of windows 10 seems to reset my network permissions.

Are you sure your network is all setup, ie you can navigate through to each client PC

Both ASP4 and WideClient work fine here across the LAN with P3D v4.3 without any changes to the configurations of either host or remote machines.

Make sure you install the new SDK that accompanies P3D v4.3, and you should also re-run the ASConnect_P3Dv4_Install.exe program on your host machine after installing the new P3D client and updating ASP4 to version 6753 or later.  For FSUIPC/WideClient configs, you'll also need to make sure you're on FSUIPC 5.132 or later.

Omg what is with win 10 and what they doing to networked systems.  Every update I am losing more functionality in network it seems.  First home group is gone..   Spent hours last update to reestablish connections. had to get in car drive to lake to get away from it.

will it ever end

It appears that the problem was caused by the removal of my simconnect.xml when upgrading to P3Dv4.3 - All restored and simconnect now works on networked set-up.

 

best to all.

Joaquin,

Where  the simconnect.xml should reside in P3D4, I mean in which folder?

Thanks

if your having network problems after 1803 windows 10 update which gorfed my connections  disable ivp6 protocol on your network adapter   after looking at a lot of webpages that's what fixed it for me and editing my hosts file
