Thanks, Robert. I know about the canopy. I'll add it to the bug list, although when I last looked at it there didn't appear to be the possibility of a solution. I'll take another look. It's interesting about the slight jitter, because I did try reducing the sample rate in the later versions just to ...

Hi Robert,

thanks for letting me know. Both of those versions ought to be compatible but there may be something I overlooked as the weather update is now in 1.0.3. I would suggest trying to use the same versions when you can.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi, Peter I transmits you my congratulations for your software. I use it with my friends, since a few days. My club of simmers would wish to use your software on a dedicated server. It is easier to connect in a fixed IP address. It's important that the access can be secured. Could add you a passwor...

Hi Michael, Sorry you are having problems with JoinFS. If the number of pilots changed to 2 then yes, you are now connected. The best thing to look at after that is from the menu, View|Aircraft. You should see at least two aircraft, one owned by 'Me' and one owned by the 'Network'. If you do see tho...

If it is ok with you, it would be really useful if you could you try 1.0.3-TEST from http://pmem.uk/joinfs/development.html This test build can co-exist with the normal version of JoinFS and puts a 'JoinFS (TEST)' icon on the desktop. If you could try running that, you will probably get the same ori...

Hi, Yes, you did the right thing on Windows Smart Screen so that's not the problem. Would you be able to check if Avast has stopped External.dll from being installed. If you look where you installed JoinFS (C:\Program Files (x86)\JoinFS), is the External.dll in that folder along with JoinFS.exe? If ...

Hi Gibbon,

currently looking into it. Thanks for letting me know! Will respond as soon as it's resolved.

Hi, By default, JoinFS only broadcasts your aircraft over the network. By enabling this all other Sim objects, such as AI traffic will get broadcast as well. It's a bit experimental at the moment. It has the possibility of linking together servers that are running different versions of normal FSX mu...

Prior to v (TEST) 1.0.3, "Model Matching" yielded 12,000 models. There are that many because I have an addon AI traffic program. With v (TEST)1.0.3 I am only getting 1,495. I think it's no longer looking in all of the simobject folders listed in the primary flight sim cfg file (FSX.CFG, e...

A new test version has been released, available at http://pmem.uk/joinfs/development.html

Thanks for the update, Re: P3D. I was involved in a group flight last night and we experienced the P3D issue where he could see us, but not of us (FSX) could see him. So just to let you know, there is still an issue. However, I have found something in the JoinFS code that may be causing it. So I'll ...

Stable version 1.0.2 released. Download from http://pmem.uk/joinfs/install.html

I think implementing this weather feature is a great idea! However, please put in some sort of option to turn this feature off. This is for a few reasons. Some people may have very bad internet. Also some of us have 3rd party weather add-ons and would prefer to use our own. Allowing the client to t...

Hi Dan First of all, a nice post, thanks. I'm beginning to regret not getting into flight simulation years ago. I've had a lot of enjoyment out of it in the last year since I started, and I do feel that this is a great way to give something back. Anyway, the requests. Starting with 2. I see no reaso...

That sounds good. And the bit about the SimObjects folder is useful. It appears that P3D v3 uses a new add-on folder structure so I'll need to cater for that.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi,

If anyone with P3D has successfully connected with JoinFS 1.0.2-TEST without any problems could you reply to this just to let me know.

Thanks,
Peter

Hi Karl, It must be something else then. Could you check that it's not model matching that is causing it. In the list you could try clicking the Edit button and changing the model to something else. Also could you cut and paste the text output that you get in the View|Monitor window. Make sure you c...

How about the .jfs files from saved flights - are those compatible between these versions?

Regards,
Robert

Hi Robert,

Yes, I'll be keeping .jfs files backward compatible, so they should work with all future versions.

A new test version has been released, available at http://pmem.uk/joinfs/development.html

Version 1.0.2-TEST is now up. Hopefully this will fix the issue.

Thanks,
Peter
