vPilot unhandled exception

Hi guys,

 

long-time simmer, first-time VatSimmer.

I just installed the newest vPilot client on my machine and while trying to set it up, got an exception.

 

It happens when I am prompted to set up vPilot (for the first time).

I can enter voice device fine but when I click on the button "Set new PTT Key or Button", I get an exception.

I have tried searching the forums and came up empty handed (found a few threads about unhandled exceptions but never any solution).

Please help.

 

 

See the end of this message for details on invoking 
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.

For example:

<configuration>
   <system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.

Any ideas?

I would like to participate in a big event on Vatsim today but if I cannot get vPilot to work, I won't be able to. Actually, I won't be able to fly on Vatsim at all. That is pretty cruel punishment for poor programming.

Thoughts? Suggestions? Ideas?

Thanks

Lou

uninstall vpilot, then reinstall it. see if it fixes that issue. if it still happens after that, verify you have .net and directx installed as per vpilots minimum system requirements in the docomeentation http://vpilot.metacraft.com/Docomeentation.aspx

Thank you for the suggestions, Ernesto.

We did try to reinstall a few times, to no avail. I have not tried DirectX but will try it later, maybe tomorrow.

I also checked the system requirements and my machine meets them with no problems.

 

I actually switched from vPilot to FSInn and that client works for me so we can dismiss this problem.

And sorry about the poor choice of words in my earlier post, I was very frustrated with the bug.

That's a pretty ignorant thing to say, especially to someone who has volunteered countless hours developing outstanding applications for the network - free of charge mind you.

 

What device are you using to set the PTT? Is it a joystick button? A keyboard?

I eagerly await your new client for the network. Until then the vast majority of users of this program have no problems. Mainly because they read the manual. Stick with FSInn. You can insult the developers of it because they are no longer around or support their product.

Blame the program for something that appears to be on user end

 

..... for some reason the program isn't being allowed to access the input devices.

 

What device are you trying to use as your PTT? Keyboard, stick......

 

Just a thought, delete drivers for that device then unplug/plug to force fresh install. That might fix the issue.
