October 9, 200520 yr I just looked at the new website and saw that the new RC does not work with FSHotSEAT or FSHotSEATFX. I really like the sound enhancement that FX gives to the AI aircraft. Why is this program a problem with the new RC? Is there a resolution or do I have to give up this enhanced sound?
October 9, 200520 yr Commercial Member I don't know personally what the problem is, but one of the beta testers spent a long time trying to figure it out. with no luck. maybe he can elaboratejd JD Read my blog
October 9, 200520 yr Author I discovered the answer by reading the RC4 quick start guide you posted. Apparently there is a variable in FSUIPC that gets changed when FS HotSeatFX is run. I plan to uninstall that program before installing RC4, but now my question is how to restore the altered FSUIPC variable. Will replacing the FSUIPC.dll do the trick or does something else need to be done? I'm hoping that the beta tester who discovered the problem can tell me what to do.
October 9, 200520 yr Commercial Member i don't think he ever got it to work. the problem is i'm expecting the tcas info from fsuipc in one format, and the other program sets fsuipc to display it in a different format.i'll ask the beta tester to post his findings herejd JD Read my blog
October 9, 200520 yr Author After reading further, I expect that if I remove FSHotSeatFX and remove the FSUIPC.ini file and let FSUIPC recreate it, I'm thinking it should work. However, I'd like confirmation of that if the beta tester can provide it.
October 9, 200520 yr Hi Bill,I'm the beta tester that JD referred to.If you have the registered version of FSUIPC you can use the Techbical tab to reset TCASid to Flight. You might want to look at the following thread:http://www.fshotseat.com/Forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=488Cheers,Sandy
October 9, 200520 yr Author Thanks, Sandy. That did the trick. I hope FSHotSeat can come up with a solution so that I can use it, but until then it is disabled.Bill
November 14, 200520 yr Could I just ask for a clarification of this problem - I too run FSHotFX. The reference I read on the website seemed to indicate that if the two progs were run together, then RC's AI chatter would be affected adversely. Is this the only issue, ie if I had no AI chatter in RC, would the two co-exist?Bud
