I believe they use Direct Input. I'm also using Direct Input, but they must have some black magic going on to help them out. The PTT should be fixed Grumpy in the latest version available for download. I'm checking if a button is pressed slightly differently. Thank you Roo. I shall keep a watch out...

Leads me to wonder if you could include a subroutine to check for FSUIPC and use its handlers if available. I've never written anything with FSUIPC so I'd have to do a bit of reading up first. The same goes for Xplane which I do have plans to include. Thinking about it, if I did include FSUIPC that...

Update to this.. I managed to replicate what you described above. It only happened when SIMCOM X was first run and no previous ptt button had been set. Does that sound like what happened to you? If so it should be an easy fix which I'll add next time. Before then... Simply closing and restarting th...

http://i.imgur.com/WGgFRMDt.jpg Good morning Roo, I am very used to using a button on my Flight yoke, very realistic compared to taking a hand off to punch the keyboard. HOWEVER, I allocate Button0 and Simcomm registers it as continuously live. Whats the fix for this please? Win 7 64 lots of mem as...

Dave, set you follow distance to around 200 feet. You are spawned behind the chosen aircraft some considerable speed faster than the target.
This means that if your follow distance is set too close, you will run up his tailpipe. Thus burning the plexiglass windscreen on your Spad.

Thank you peter. We are still using 1.4.3 and will follow the stable versions rour from now on. see PM

Long time since the muse has bit me and prompted me to comment....... I wonder if the name of the Flightsim in USERS can be truncated. Currently, the USERS window displays as thus... https://i.imgur.com/ZHYPXXKm.jpg how do you acquire the flight simulator name? Does this come from the user somewhere...

Pete.......... From Flybywires and me, Merry Christmas, and a prosperous new year. its 10 PM on Christmas day, here, I have sampled my stepsons whiskey, and can pronounce it as GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD Thank you, Pete, for your efforts that benefit the whole of the flying community. Without your these, w...

Good afternoon, Peter. Thinking about the time idea. Love it. If its possible. For most group flights, like we and the nice gentlemen at BFSG, do,have it so the copy time function picks up LOCAL time where the flight starts. Ie, departing EGBJ at 0900 hrs LOCAL time. We all gather, and the flight co...

Hey Pizza, you should still have my email address, keep in touch about this group flight and I will drag my team along.

Regards etc.

It has, I think, to be a windows server. you could do it with a small windows capable single board computer. I did one once on a Latte Panda, and it worked beautifully with one proviso. Seeing it when its on you local network. if you can run it somewhere else, like at work, or such, it would be perf...

Steve's away enjoying himself pretending to catch fish somewhere.

We will do just this, peter, as soon as he comes back.

We use TFDI for our webserver.
JFS is run on a different server, as is Teamspeak, and two other utilities.
Works VERY well for us.

Peter: Steve is one of our core members and we have been struggling with this for quite some time. Its got us all baffled completely. If we lived a bit closer than several thousand miles, I would completely reinstall Windows and FSX. The distance makes that difficult. I do know he has Nortons, and s...

Hi Vic, Don't use hub mode as you are right, that's for public servers. You just need to let others know you external IP address and the port you are using so they can add your server to their JoinFS bookmarks. I think there is a post on this forum which explains how to do it if you don't have a st...

The coffee pot has been retired, a cunning plan, so cunning that Blackadder would be envious of its duplicitous deviosness. We now have a permanent IP and a server to run JFS on. Thus, dear readers, FlybyWires will show up in the Hub list FOREVER!!! Sorry about that, we are not going away. Now, what...

Greetings Peter.

Idle thought.....
I would find value in having the various tables in the aircraft table sortable by the column names.
If I a, the only one who is crazy enough to want this, don't bother, pure laziness on my part.

Regards........

O well it was worth a shot Grumpy. ;) Certainly was, Roo. We are going to set JFS on a cloud server, maintained etc via a Remote Desktop Connection. The releases the Coffeecup as a flash Kodi device. Or a play toy. Or something. surely wont sit idle for long. Thanks for the thoughts and help. B

In my case, Roo its VDSL2 ONE filter on the incoming line at the master junction. Office is hard-wired via Ethernet. Router is on full-time except for power cuts certain devices are wifi. 2 phones, 2 tablets, 2 laptops.. your comments re three wire line haven't been valid here for 40 years. I am abo...

Are you in the UK? I worked as a Telecoms engineer for a short time and may be able to provide you with some tricks to help your line out. No, Roo, New Zealand is home. Thats why we rarely are online at the same time. However, a telephone line is the same pretty much anywhere. I suspect ants and fo...
