Martin Loxbo Posted June 26, 2015 at 01:46 PM Posted June 26, 2015 at 01:46 PM As I'm updating our simulator files in Sweden I'm looking at using the tower simulator connected to FSX. I managed to get it to work on the local FSD server. Is it possible to make it work via Sweatbox as well? Also I'm having some trouble getting the tower view to work online. Is the TowerViewConnectorPlugin.dll still used? I could not find it anywhere in my ES installation. Did I misplace it or is there a different procedure to connect the tower view?

Jonas Kuster Posted June 27, 2015 at 05:58 PM Posted June 27, 2015 at 05:58 PM Hi Martin The ES simulator architecture has changed with V3.2 (http://www.euroscope.hu/mediawiki/index.php?title=Simulator_Architecture). The Wiki has been updated and explains you step by step how to connect ES and the flight simulator for tower view (http://www.euroscope.hu/mediawiki/index.php?title=Tower_simulator).

Martin Loxbo Posted July 6, 2015 at 03:39 PM Author Posted July 6, 2015 at 03:39 PM Thanks Jonas but that doesn't really answer my questions. Question 1: Is it possible to make tower view work over Sweatbox or just on the local simulator? Question 2: How can I make tower view work online?

Jonas Kuster Posted July 8, 2015 at 12:26 AM Posted July 8, 2015 at 12:26 AM I'm not sure if the Connector is thought for that. I would still use FSInn directly. But it might also work if you start a ES proxy (so the proxy inside ES), then you should be able to connect locally as if the server would be local.

Martin Loxbo Posted July 8, 2015 at 02:44 PM Author Posted July 8, 2015 at 02:44 PM Online tower view used to work with TowerViewConnectorPlugin.dll, but as I can't find it in my installation anymore I'm thinking it was just a feature of the pre 3.2 beta versions. Gergely, can you confirm? Martin Loxbo Director Sweden FIR VATSIM Scandinavia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gergely Csernak Posted July 21, 2015 at 07:14 PM Posted July 21, 2015 at 07:14 PM TowerViewConnectorPlugin.dll is not really complete. It is lacking a good model matching code. So you can not find it in the installation. When you are connected to the SweatBox you still should be able to use FSInn and connect to the local ES. Gergely.

Martin Loxbo Posted July 28, 2015 at 11:23 PM Author Posted July 28, 2015 at 11:23 PM Thanks Gergely. I don't really want to install FSInn as it has a lot of problems. Would it be possible to get the TowerViewConnector dll back, maybe with place-holder planes ("paper planes" like in SB) for models that it cannot find a match for?
