  3. Installing the IXEG 737 Classic breaks the Flightfactor 757 autothrottle

    A disappointing follow-up...

    Flightfactor 757 is still broken with the IXEG installed, despite trying the version of XPUIPC recommended above.

    Is there any decent troubleshooting possible because I know from a software development standpoint these kind of integration issues are an absolute nightmare to resolve between multiple commercial parties.

    Thanks guys, I only have XPUIPC installed because a VA 'tracking' plugin requires it to read sim status, I don't use any of it's control assignment features.

    BTW I found 2.0.4.7 here: https://vasystem.org/support/vas-acars/x-plane/,

    So will give that a go.

    Grateful to hear others don't have the issue between the IXEG737 and the FF757, suggesting it's a local issue.

    Hi Chris,

    thanks for letting us know! We are aware that the IXEG 737 does not work with the newest version of XPUPIC - so if you use that to drive your hardware throttle there can be problems with the throttle not working on the 737.

    However we have not received a single report about incompatibility with any SASL driven aircraft...and the 757 is a popular add-on, I think we would have more reports if this was a problem for all people that have both aircraft installed.

    Do you use XPUIPC?

    Cheers, Jan

     

    Hi Jan, I do; and had wondered what version I should be on.

    I'm currently running 2.0.3.1

    But I have found & downloaded the following (later) versions...

    • 2.0.3.5;
    • 2.0.3.8;
    • 2.0.4.8 and;
    • 2.0.5.9

    ...but never applied them (not knowing whether it would make things better or worse).

    Does this help? If there is a version of XPUIPC that you and/or the devs test with, I'll happily try that.

    Many Thanks,

    Chris.

    P.S.

    Hi there, something the team should be aware of - installing the IXEG 737 Classic appears to break the Flightfactor 757V2 autothrottle functionality.

    Whether it is something to do with SASL conflicts; or something else would need to be investigated.

    I have installed/uninstalled the IXEG several times, and the issue on the Flightfactor 757 only surfaces immediately once the IXEG is installed and it goes away when the product is uninstalled. I tried disabling ther Gizmo plugin after starting X-Plane with the FF757, but this makes no difference.

    Does anyone know if there's a workaround or would it require code change, because it would seem there is a conflict between these products.

    Many Thanks,

    Chris.
