Thanks for the bug report. Gizmo required pthreads to communicate with the activation servers. It may be possible to rework the code using more modern features and remove my dependence on pthreads. I'll investigate and see what I can do. This won't be a quick fix though.. Thanks, Ben R.

Not yet, sorry.

Not all devs are running multiple displays. Those that are probably aren't testing for every possible layout of them. Primary left might work. Primary right might not. etc. I know for a fact that I have multi monitor bugs to work on but haven't had time to setup a dual head display and mess around with it yet.

Unlikely.

Do you have BitDefender installed? AntiVirus software has recently started blocking HTTP communication with the server. If you are using an AV package it may be worth investigating if you can add an exception from X-Plane and HTTP comms. I hope to move to HTTPS authentication in the future but it's not an easy change.

Your patience is appreciated.

This is why OP is a massive pain in the ass. No. It's not dead. OP is just a troll looking for some drama.

If you install the recommended Open.FlyBridge plugin you should be able to use the PF client app. There may be some slight variation in the data it captures but from my brief testing it looks usable. The alternative is to remember to start the PF client app after X-Plane. This is made harder by the fact that their app likes to stay running but hidden unless you kill it with task manager.

When I created the drm system I made the very deliberate choice not to allow you to unregister the machine you're currently using. You can only do it from a different machine and it will only prompt you to do so after you have registered three machines. It is difficult to break by accident.

You have the project fly plugin installed. It is known to be buggy. Their team has been contacted but doesn't seem to care. See this for a fix: https://github.com/benrussell/Open.FlyBridge/releases Or this for the story: http://blog.x-plugins.com/2018/09/projectfly-bridge-plugin-rewrite.html Sorry that you've been bothered by this. Not much more I can do about it.

It crashes for you. It works for the other 99.99% of people. File a support ticket and maybe we can figure out what's wrong with your pc.

Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

You should've approached support before you started digging a hole.

Strict Unix systems are also 1% of real world systems exposure. You know this.

This is fine. The machine ID is generated from the OS install, not the copy of X-Plane. License renewal occurs every two weeks - or occasionally when Windows Update installs a bunch of deep changes. License data is stored inside the X-Plane folder so approx every two weeks you will potentially need to update both copies of your sim.

If you are a projectFLY user and have been experiencing bugs after enabling their X-Plane bridge plugin please install this new plugin. https://github.com/benrussell/Open.FlyBridge/releases For the back story on how and why this new plugin was created see this blog post: http://blog.x-plugins.com/2018/09/projectfly-bridge-plugin-rewrite.html

Please attach your X-Plane / Log.txt file.

Upload your log files. If you have xenviro Disable it. If you use project fly start the client app after you start xplane.

@Peter T. what've you done!

Steve. I've spent some time investigating this and have found that ProjectFly and their bridge plugin will work more reliably if you start the ProjectFly windows app AFTER you start X-Plane. I'll be contact their team when I have more information to share with them. Hope that helps for now. br.

Trying to get in contact with someone is proving annoying. Can't DM via the PF forum. https://projectfly.co.uk/u/Austmitch?_ga=2.98755479.828562753.1535966773-2059027781.1535966773 Can't use their discord because it's invalid: https://twitter.com/MattDaviesHD/status/656487608680382464 Can't contact the user on FB because "Invalid": https://www.facebook.com/app_scoped_user_id/1275313569166461/ (So much for solving all the same old problems that they throw stones at. Sigh.)

ProjectFly is producing an error on my local system. I might be able to make some sense of it in the near future...

Looks like a problem in the Saab Systems scripts. Jim will have to take a look... Thanks for your patience.

Steff. The GizmoLog.txt file is in the X-Plane folder. The same place you found Log.txt already. Thanks, br.
