[Resolved]Plan-G v2.0.2 and FSUIPC

[Kurt2404]

Good evening Tim,

just updated from  v2.0.1 to v2.0.2. Until now I used the FSUIPC connection as solid communication to FSX and anticipating a future wide FS bridge to a networked laptop. Unfortunately the new version does (at least in my case) NOT connect to FSUIPC at all. Please check for the reason of this.

Here are the last lines of the log-file:
22:03:05.9 DrawFlightPlan. MoveMap = False nodes = 0
22:03:05.9 No plan - erasing line

Thanks in advance for helping me!

If you are running Plan-G as administrator, make sure you are also running FS as administrator (or vice versa). That error occurs if only one of the two programs has administrator priveleges. They must both have the same privelege level. (either Administrator or not).

Good morning Tim,

perfect - I woke up this night and had the same thought about unintentionally leaving out the "execute as administrator" tack!

Thank your very much for your perfect service!
