Vpilot version 2.8.1 & FSUIPC 4 v4.976

Hello, 

 

It seems that after a clean install, FSX Steam will connect with Vpilot & squawk Mode C, but when I install the latest FSUIPC, I can no longer Squawk Mode C. 

I need FSUIPC installed to make use of another program to connect with FSX SE. Above is verified because when I removed FSUPC from FSX SE Vpilot functions correctly again with Mode C.

Please advise

Regards, Jay

Carenado FA50. I don't think the issue lies herein, as the version is still the same, and before it worked (or did not actually) by selecting Mode C in Vpilot itself. Is there a vpilot version before 2.8..1 that I can try to see if FSUIPC does work with that version?

ok, seems that after installing FSUIPC 4.974 I can activate the Mode C in Vpilot, but ATC gets no readings. Another pilot who was coming in also had no Mode C and was using VPilot. The search continues... an older Vpilot version would help to see if that is the problem now

What do you mean by "ATC gets no readings" ?

Mode C ... Altitude

"I.O.W.: ATC gets no altitude readings"

Try it with a default aircraft.

Third complete reinstall of Windows 10 Pro to be 100 % sure, but verified that when using Vpilot 2.8.1 & FSUIPC 4.976 the Mode C button on the Vpilot client does not work. (Default aircraft also)

When using FSUIPC 4.974 it does work.

Mentioned it at the Fsuip site too, just giving a heads up. Don't know how.

No idea ... I don't think it's a vPilot issue or else many people would be having this issue.

John released a fix earlier today for this issue. Grab version 4.977 of FSUIPC.
