Ok, so here's what I did to get it to work- I copied the contents of resources/plugins/pilotedge/32 to the root of /pilotedge, which really just added the msvcr100.dll to the /pilotedge directory.

I have a multi-machine setup running x9.70 and wanted an interface to FF on the iPad and didn't want to have to upgrade the PCs to run v10, so I use RedBird Flight Simulations' Cygnus (http://retail.redbirdflight.com/collections/cygnus) or (http://www.redbirdflightsimulations.com/cygnus/) -- a bit p...

I installed the plugin on the IOS (old pc but works for IOS), and it behaves the same as the external view machines. Here is the log.txt which shows essentially the same as all of the ext views' error ("C:\Documents and Settings\Home\Desktop\X-Plane 9\Resources\plugins\PilotEdge\win.xpl : Error...

Keith- Still no aircraft visible on the external views - PE folder installed in the Resources/Plugins directory on each pc. Should the external view pcs be showing that they are running the PE plugin? they are currently showing there are no plugins installed. The Master does show the plugin and conn...

Ok, thanks- I’ll look into it further today...

Glad to see drones are back! I’ll need them for testing the external visuals- I updated all pcs on the 7-pc sim, edited the VSProSlaves.ini on the master to “5” but couldn’t see an aircraft on the ramp at KPSP last night. Keith, do you know of any issues with the upgrade and multi-machine setups? (j...

My thoughts exactly. Great job, PE - glad to be able to fly on the network more now due to a bug fix in my sim. Had to “get my fix” tonight after a long work day, even though ATC was offline - Riverside to French Valley.

Ok, so I finally figured this problem out- it has been so intermittent and unpredictable. To my surprise, the problem was actually caused by Redbird’s Cygnus plugin (it drives the output to the iPad via a Bad Elf cable for X-Plane 9.70). I run 7 PCs in my sim - 5 for visuals, one for instruments/mas...

Hi Keith & PE controllers, I experienced a first this evening. I run six pcs running X-Plane v9.70 networked. The Master PC handles all PE connectivity. It has worked without a hitch for many months, I use RedBird’s Cygnus software to connect to my iPad running ForeFlight. All has been great, bu...

Keith,

Do you prefer us visual guys to request flight following during these events, or just request a departure direction or does it just depend upon controller workload, as in the rw? (TAF shows MVFR at most of the airports so I’ll probably set my own weather )
