New ATC and Airport Operations Application Testing

[fs1 295]

@fclaass I will provide you something to test so we can clear out this.

Perfect, thanks!

thanks Frederico, FYI I also observed the same FPS loss at LFPG after 10-15 mn. Loss is around 10 FPS as for fclaass.

[fs1 295]

@pmemery be sure to turn debug off, as debug on does affect FPS.

Next build will be more FPS-friendly, despite the fact that current release has very light code and some multithreading as well.

ok thanks

Hey Federico @fs1

 

I am having some issues with the program. It seem to cause CTD with no faulting module. While I can not pin point that it is surely ATCAPI that is causing the AppHang however I am confident that it most likely the reason. It seems to occur either during taxi out or during taxi in on the arrival airport. It has happened so far on all my flights. Either departing or arriving into my destination.

Here is the even report:

Fault bucket , type 0
Event Name: AppHangB1
Response: Not available
Cab Id: 0

Problem signature:
P1: Prepar3D.exe
P2: 5.1.12.26829
P3: 5fb44f72
P4: 2144
P5: 134217728
P6: 
P7: 
P8: 
P9: 
P10: 

I haven't tried to fly without it because it has become a vital part of my flying habits to have it on as it provides realistic operations - I am mostly flying in the US. This last crash happened on arrival into KORD RWY10R.

Here is my config file as it looked like then:

I am available to help to find out the reason if you want me to 

Kind regards,

Thanks @Balint Szarka I will be posting a new build tomorrow.

In the meantime, can you turn debug on? Add this line to the XML:

<Debug>1</Debug>.

There will be lots of txt files created in the folder where the DLL is located. Zip them and send them to fsprgrs at gmail.com

Thanks

I will do that and send them once I have them. Thanks.

Also, in the mean time what I did is I removed the second <Airport> entries to ensure it isn't what is causing the app hangs. Not sure whether I could have two airports in there simultaneously.

@fs1

I have just sent you the email with the logs.

 

Kind regards,

Balint

Morning all - i am just getting on board with this amazing tool.  Does the latest version fix the "U turn on the runway" issue?  ALso wanted to say a HUGE thank you to you Federico for your time and effort here. Much appreciated.

That is a function yet to be implemented.

Thank you Balint.

Not sure if this helps, but I am now finding on departure that I am being assigned to some runways that do not exist (but that are there for the crosswind afcad technique).

On departure from KIAD yesterday I had the program set up to use 1C/1R for landings and 30 for departures. ATC asked me to taxi to runway 10 (which is a crosswind technique 10 foot runway). 

What's more, when I go to request a different runway after getting the assignment. I can't select runway 30. I'll try and take some screenshots later.

thanks to Frederico's tool allowing the user(s) to define departing and arrival runway(s) you have to get rid of the fake runways you have in your ADE I think. This is what I did and it is working fine

@fs1What's the current build?
