Connect Disconnect

[vh-ugw]

Hi Tim,

I am having trouble keeping my Plan-G connected. I have Plan - G running on a networked laptop and FSX running on the main PC. Occasionally I have to disconnect Plan - G then re-connect as the yellow plane freezes. It works for a while again then I notice it has not moved for while. Have tried with simconnect and auto. A little annoying. Any suggestions.

That was certainly a problem with some of the earlier versions, but I haven't seen it in quite some time. Check you're running the latest build...

The version I have is 0.9.1.423. I gather this is the latest. I might try a reinstall and see what happens.

The other thing is to check for errors in the log file at around the time the disconnect happens. You will certainly see this problem if FSX crashes or has to be restarted, because the Simconnect port gets left stuck open and you can't reconnect to it.

Thanks Tim, Will check the log next time it occurs. The strange thing is FSX never crashes. I reinstalled Plan-G today so I will monitor it and see how it goes over the next few days.
