Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Hi all,
I am French and new in Condor (I bought it last week).
I saw a very interesting tool, FreeCondorInstruments, as I would like to use 2 screens (I would like to build a simple cockpit). So I downloaded the last version for the russian site, but impossible to start the application on my 2 computers. The application immediatly stops with a message "FreeCondor Instruments encountered a problem and must be closed..." (I have translated the message because I have in french.
I am using machines on XP. Is-it supported or is-it an issue?
Does somebody know this problem?
I feel a little bit stupid to not having found by myself the solution, so apologies if it is already documented, but I tried since 2 days to found the solution on the different forums.
Thank you in advance for your support.
Best regards,
Jean-Luc

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Of course it works on XP because it was initially designed on XP .
Can you provide some more details about your setup? Don't you mix up 2 screens on one computer and 2 different computers? Please attach here config file which you use for FCIS.

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Hello Tima,
Thank you for your answer.
Here is the beginning of my default.ini which is in cfd directory:
[General]
DebugLog=0
FpsVisible=0
TextFontSize=18
TextFontName=arial
Zoom=1
; System of measures (metric, imperial)
; MUST be set EQUAL with corresponding Condor settings
Units=Metric
[Window]
; Monitor
; Id of monitor to display meters on.
; If you don't know which monitor you should use then try different
; values and launch in fullscreen mode.
Monitor=1
; Mode
; 0 = Windowed
; 1 = Fullscreen
; 2 = Fullscreen Emulation (Windowed mode with size to fit screen)
Mode=1
; Border is only affected in windowed mode.
; Actual window width and height will be corrected to fit your values.
Border=0
; Topmost is only affected in windowed or emulation mode.
Topmost=1
; Following values affected only in windowed mode.
; Left and top are window offset on selected monitor.
; Width and Height are sizes of window
Top=0
Left=0
Width=1024
Height=768
[Connection]
ListenPort=55278
; instruments failure timeout (ms)
Timeout=2000
; UDP forwarding
ForwardEnabled=0
ForwardHost=127.0.0.1
; ListenPort and ForwardPort MUST be different.
ForwardPort=55279
This is the one which is on my laptop:
- Windows XP
- with an external screen which is configured as the main one
Hope this helps.

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Better zip default.ini file and attach here. I was going simply to download it and check on my computer. If it will work then problem is somewhere in your system. Another question - whether FCIS works a) with external monitor disconnected and b) when notebook monitor is the main and external one is secondary?

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
I have tested as you suggested and in all cases it is not working.
I join the default.ini file.

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
On my computer it works with provided default.ini. The next suspect is video driver. What is shown in Condor in the "Setup" -> "Graphics" tab, right side of the dialog window, just below "Video options" title? There should be name of your graphics card and below it "Direct3D TL HAL". Is this name correct and whether "Direct3D" is there or instead of it something about "RGB emulation"?

même si ta carte est en 1024 x 768, essaie cet conf qui affichera un tableau de bord en 800 x 600 sur ton ecran principal.

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Je viens d'essayer et cela ne marche pas non plus. Je suis complètement perdu...
Je ne comprends pas...
Le message est le suivant: FreeCondorInstruments.exe a rencontré un problème et doit fermer. Nous vous prions de nous excuser pour le désagrément encouru.
Merci de ton aide. Si tu as une autre idée...

Re: Free Condor Instruments suite v1.0 released
Dear Tima and PapaJules,
First of all thank you very much for your support. I really appreciate.
Following your suggestions and checks, I have started to check all the common components between my 2 computers (as FCIS was not running on them).
Firewall, spyware,.. and ZipGenius 6 used to decompress the 7Z file. So for this point I downloaded 7-Zip from sourceforge. And FCIS starts running!!!
So it was ZipGenius which unzipped wrongly the distribution file.
I have the version 6.0.3.1150 of ZipGenius.
It is the first time I have a problem with this program.
So thank you a lot, I would never have found the solution without you!!!
I will now continue the implementation as my test was on a single screen, next step 2 screens.
Best regards, and apologies.
