Hi Peter, I have always run JoinFS on a second PC which has worked fine for XP, P3D and 2020. I have just built myself a new PC and it no longer connects. I know that it is a firewall issue on the new PC but for the life of me I can't remeber which ports/protocols I allowed to let the remote version...

Hi Peter,

Just wanted to say nice job. Flew online with my Club last night and the TCAS is working perfectly

Kind Regards,


Ted.

Hi Peter, The airbuses do not show, I had only the engines show on the 777 and the smaller 737 and 717 did not show at all. All of the payware aircraft I have IXEG 737-300, FlyJSim 727, FlightFactor 757 and 767 all show, as does the freware Zibo 737-800 but then that is based on the XP default model...

Hi Peter, Today was the first time that I used JoinFS since you kindly fixed the duplicate object bug with X-Plane 3rd party AI. I found that aircraft substituted for one the AI models either only partially showed e.g. engines, cockpit or no aircraft at all. I checked the monitoring log and there ar...

Hi Peter,

You are the man

Kind Regards,


Ted.

Hi Peter,

I just wanted to say thank you so much for fixing the 3rd party AI model intergration in XP

Kind Regards,


Ted.

Hi Peter,

That is excellent news and thank you so much for taking the trouble to look at this

Kind Regards,


Ted.

Hi Peter, I found the link to the AI pack that I am using, so that you can simulate what I am seeing in the monitor screen when using one of these models for aircraft substitutions. https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/53865-ai-traffic-pack-ga-airliners-with-sound-updated-for-x-plane-113...

Hi Peter,

Thank you for looking into this. The funny thing is that all of my payware aircraft can be used for substitutions no problem. I hope you can get the other AI packages working and TCAS via the datrefs.

Good luck and may I wish you a Happy New Year

Kind Regards,


Ted.

Hi Peter, I did as you said and scanned the ZIBO directory and yes I now show up, as do the distances to the other aircraft. Thank you. I have gotten to the bottom of the Failed to read Aircraft Position message . I have the XPFW/Default AI Pack 1.2 installed which with the older versions of JoinFS ...

Hi All, OK I did a complete uninstal and reinstall. Including removing the appdata\local\joinfs directory and any other JoinFS related folders. Rebooted PC and foloowed cunuck21a procedure. I can still make the file locking error appear if I disconnect JoinFS and reconnect it without shutting down e...

Hi Peter, I already did upgrade to 1.6.6 and it has same problem ERROR: Failed to read AircraftPosition message. The process cannot access the file 'object_list' because it is being used by another process. I also cannot see any other aircraft even though they are listed in the aircraft screen. Howe...

Hi Peter, I am running XP 11.51r1 and the only version that works is 1.5.12 with this version of XP. I got a friend to test as well to prove it. I did have 1.6.2 running fine on XP 11.50 before I upgraded XP to 11.51r1. With XP 11.51r1 and JoinFS 1.6.6 I am still seeing the access error - ERROR: Fai...

Hi Peter, I just upgraded to 1.4.25 (as have my fellow club members http://www.gatwick-fsg.org.uk) and the timeouts have gone with X-Plane when accessing the XP menu whilst flying. However, flying with my friends last night showed that the elevation for both X-Plane and P3Dv4 users has reverted, in ...

Thank you Peter for your quick response. Good luck with the plugin processing.

Ted.

Hi, I know that this is a relatively new feature but JoinFS is also disconnecting when you access any of the X-Plane menus. Is it possible to make the connection persist whilst accessing X-Plane menu's as you obviously loose visual contact with the others you are flying with and when it reconnects i...

Hi Peter,

Thank you for such a rapid response. Given your answer, it looks like I am all set to go

Ted.

Hi, I have not yet installed JoinFS and know very little about it but I know people from my FlightSim club http://www.gatwick-fsg.or.uk who have just started getting into it and say It is an excellent product. I would like to ask the question if it is possible to install JoinFS on a second networked...
