FSX Shared cockpit bugs?

Hi,

 

Wondering if anyone has experienced bugs when using the shared cockpit and if they have any tips on how to resolve them.

 

We are experiencing problems with IAS being out of sync to the point where one of us could be overspeeding and the other near a stall, which is bizarre. We are also experiencing very different winds. Our groundspeed however, always remains in sync.

 

We are both on FSX, both use ActiveSky X and when one of us were not using it, the problem still presented itself, so we've eliminated ASX as the problem.. unless there's something we missed?

 

I run vista, and my friend runs XP.

 

Thanks

I would initially look at addons as a culprit. The interface might not know how to deal with your weather addon just as it doesn’t know how to properly deal with aircraft addons. I’m sure with enough development and resolving the bugs found in simconnect provisions would have eventually been provided for the addons developer. I believe it would be up to the addons developers to provide work arounds.

 

The bugs that you describe are all centered around weather conditions. It appears that you said both used the addon weather, then one of you used the addons weather. It appeared that you used the addons weather in all your test. You might consider eliminating the addons weather altogether then see if you experience the problems. If you isolate this as the culprit, you can then focus on how to integrate the addon weather to your Shared Cockpit environment by communication with their support channel.
