Ģ2:02:21:0672-Sim general message:SimConnect Msg: Data request sent. Ģ2:02:21:0609-Sim general message:Sim Msg: Connection request sent. I am now investigating if there is a way to manually close down the port connection upon fsx shutdown.Ģ2:02:21:0453-Pre Connect FS_Connected = FalseĢ2:02:21:0453-FSX Connect Pre Attempt: Instantiated = False / mConnected = FalseĢ2:02:21:0594-Sim general message:Sim Msg: fsx_simconnect is NOTHING. So even if i restart FSX the port is still in this "used" state, and the only way to get it out of that state is by restarting totally my pc. Which means that its waiting to get command to close the port, but this eventually never happens, so therefor the port remains in use. But once I shut down FSX then on the server pc, running netstat it would say TIME_WAIT, and on the client pc, running netstat would give FIN_WAIT_2. Interesting enough when ASE was connected to FSX it would show up as CONNECTION ESTABLISHED. So I tried to run the command netstat both on server and client. So I thought it has to be something with the ports to do, that maybe they don't close properly when shutting down fsx.

Once I shut down FSX and try to rerun it again it won't connect to ASE.īut if I then restart my server pc and then start up FSX again then ASE would connect. I noticed that ASE would connect to FSX only the first time i run FSX.

Okay I did some digging and found something interesting. On my client PC ive installed Simconnect.

One last note, I have installed the FSX SDK along with all the updates. I am trying myself to troubleshoot where the heck the problem might be, but since the successful connects are so random, I cannot come to any conclusion of what it might be. Does it load from FSUIPC.dll or anywhere else? I am especially interested if anyone knows precisely how where simconnect loads from. Hope some experts can come with some input.

The files are shared with FULL ACCESS to everyone on my local network. I have both FSUIPC and WideFS server paid versions.Īnd these are the files I am sharing from my server with FSX on.
#Active sky next simulator
I have another SimConnect.ini file which is on the server pc in Flight Simulator X Files folder. Furthermore this file is also placed in the Documents folder on client pc. On my client machine this file is placed in my ASE "Simconnect files" folder.Īnd SimConnect.cfg: (This file is placed on my client machine ASE "Simconnect files" folder. SimConnect.xml: (This file is placed on server pc where the fsx.cfg file is present.
#Active sky next windows 8.1
FYI I am running Windows 8.1 on server side and Windows 8 on client side.īefore you all ask for it here are my settings: I cannot figure out what the problem is, I would love to hear from some of you experts in here, if you have any problems with simconnect on Windows 8. Sometimes to make it work I need to change the port used and then for some reason it will connect again, but it's never a 100% fix, sometimes it works, and sometimes not. If I shut down FSX on my "server" machine and ASE on my "client" machine, and then reopen FSX and ASE, then ASE will just be sayin "Waiting for simulator". There seems to be some problems if using Windows 8 and Simconnect.įor some reason I am only able to get ASE to connect once with Simconnect, but it is very random.
