After the dBase buildup problem (see my post 9th March) I started to continue my tests on the DEMO PF3 and ran into some issues with the RemoteText.exe.
First I tested it on my notebook, where PF3 resides. There it connected OK. More about that later.
But I want to have the remotetext window in the bottom right corner of my VC, which is far better than the FSUIPC popup and better in terms of options as well. So I copied the exe to the other computer where P3Dv3 resides in C:\Pf3 RemoteText\. I exluded this directory from my virusscanner to avoid problems of that kind. Then I clicked the exe (as administrator) and saw in explorer that the ini file was created. Further NOTHING happened. No popup to ask me on what IP or computername to find PF3. Just NOTHING. When I checked the Task Manager it was not in the list. The program simply died.
Then I went back to the notebook for further testing. My options setting were:
Show TX's to / from YOU only (No AI TX)
Show Your TX's to ATC
and all 3 boxes checked.
TGS was active with its program on the same notebook.
Further configuration details: see my signature.
When flying I see nothing from ATC, but I do see mine.
So I switched to 'Show ALL ATC TX's for all aircraft'
...and then I do see everything.
But: the highlight text, which I gave a different color, was not different from standard text. Everything had the same color. The toggle however, does give me different colors.
Maybe this has something to do with the fact that on the Option #1 page of the demo version the selection lists for the voices are greyed out. It's just a rough guess.
