Why can't something like this be made for TWRTrainer?

 

Do you realize how much easier life would be for us VATUSA guys?

May I ask what a sweatbox server is?

Craig, cheers, what a great piece of software.

 

I'm only training on tower but I was able to get to grips with coordination in ES after writing some scenarios with ASE.

 

In my opinion a very valuable tool, especially when training on positions that don't often have adjacent controllers.

 

Thanks again.

Hi Craig,

 

I seem to have a problem with when i try to install ASE onto a computer with Vista on it, it says that it cannot find ASE.exe and several .dll files. Any Ideas?

Best,

 

Cillian

[Craig Phillips 947617]

Vista I would like to say that Vista is your problem, but that wont help you Try installing ASE logged in as an admin on Vista, if you haven't already. The reason probably why it cannot find ASE.exe or the DLLs is because they are not there in the first place. Because Vista prevents non-admins creating files in the Program Files Directory.

 

I should in future versions of ASE put something in the installer to state on Vista you must be logged in as an admin to install ASE.

Hi Craig,

Yup i was logged on as an admin onto vista...i installed ASE on an XP computer and it worked the charm.

Anyway, will have to go back to editing ES Sim Sessions the hard way

Best,

Cillian

Being logged in to a use account with admin rights is not sufficient. You need to right click on the exe file and select "Run as Administrator" to install it. It works fine on Vista32 Home Premium.

 

Having said that, I do find that the mouse cursor is very slow to respond on the black screen area.

Looks awesome Craig! That's really promizing!

 

I've heard that you would also support ES Senarios, is that correct?

 

Also if I may put a suggestion, a Copy function would be great for duplicating aircrafts to save some time. Or would "Multiple Flight Plan" do the trick??

 

Thanks, can't wait to test it out!

[Craig Phillips 947617]

The current Version 1.1 release supports ES scenarios. The multiple flight plans are only used if more than one flight plan is returned from a vRoute flight plan request.
