Please post here all your problems related with the new Flight Logger; I'll try to answer everything as fast as I can right here.

Happy flying

[EHM-1150 Armando]

In some operating systems, you may get an error after logging in, that says something like this:
"Run-time error 430"
To fix this error, please download MDAC_TYP program from Microsoft and run it.

I opted by not including this program in the setup because it's 5.30MB in size and the most recent operating systems don't need it.

Bye bye

[EHM-0641 Rico]

I was about to mention that !!!

[EHM-1358 Tim]

What is the flight logger out?

[EHM-1150 Armando]

Sorry Tim, I can't understand you doubt; please explain better.

Bye bye

[EHM-1358 Tim]

Oh I never knew you could get the flight logger so I was wondering why you put the forum up:]

[EHM-0744 Alex]

I seem to not be able to get on...

I put my ID like this: 0744
& then the password (which I changed from the original one given, so maybe thats it).

I run Windows XP Home

[EHM-0005 Maarten]

Alex,

I tried to log in with your ID and password and I had no problems. I run Windows XP Home edition too.

If you are unsure about your password, please request it at the "Lost password?" page, which can be found at the main page of the EuroHarmony website.

[EHM-0744 Alex]

Strange... I just cant seem to log on... I'll ask for the password however I can log on at the site to submit PiReps and check my Profile perfectly.



10 Minutes later*

I found out the source of the problem, I had changed it to a password longer than the spaces in the log in box but I never noticed since once it gets to the limit it no longer writes, however in the flight logger it does not stop you, so the password I thought it was did not allow me to get it.

Cheers,

Alex;)

First impressions of teh Logger - Job well done Armando

One (and only one following one flight) complaint is that the Tour of the UK legs aren't in the database of flights yet, so I had to transpose the flight data and cut'n'paste the comments into the online PIREP form.

If I get a chance to fly a proper Class 3 flight tommorrow, I'll see how it performs in "proper" mode.

[EHM-1150 Armando]

Alex, I'm glad everything is solved - thank you Maarten.

Murray, thank you; for now, just the main timetable is in the Logger; maybe we can add the tours in the future (this is not a promise)

Bye bye

ok here goes......my one and perhaps only grouse is that it doesnt work too well in 800x600 resolution.......as in some blanks get covered and such.......plus my comp cant run FS at 1024 res and freezes everytime so i cant really use it right now.......maybe i can find a way around it........hmm........

One obvious thing comes to mind (if your GFX card supports it...); use a 1024x768 virtual desktop with an 800x600 viewport.

Yes, it'll mean having to scroll around a bit when you flip back to the desktop, but it will give you the necessary real estate to work with the logger immediately.

[EHM-0744 Alex]

I run 800x600 as well, and do have the problem with some things being covered. I have changed to 1024x768 to see how evreything goes this way... might even let it stay like this.

Edit* I just noticed there are no class 7 flights... is this supposed to be like this?
Oh, and the ACARS page does not seem to load for me on the flight logger, on the webpage it loads fine.

[EHM-0240 Joe]

Class 7 flights don't show up for you yet Alex, because your are an SCC. Once you become an ATP they will show up. Quite a nice feature I think.

[EHM-1150 Armando]

EHM-0962, I think that Murray's suggestion is good; please try it and let us know.

Alex, I found 590 flights in all divisions for class 7; please reset the selections and try again; remember that it will work like the Offline Timetable from Gergely.

The local ACARS does not show a map, it only shows the events recorded during flight.

If anyone wants to contact me directly, you can use:

YAHOO - armando_chibante

I'll be glad to help.

Bye bye

[edited]

That's right Joe. I refered that in the manual. Everybody please read it, it's not so long. If someone finds that something isn't clear in the manual, please let me know.

[EHM-1383 Syed]

Just used Flight Logger for the first time and I must say it's a very helpful tool. Especially for lazy people like me who can't take the pain to note down everything.

I dunno if this is a problem with the program, or my settings or something. After I made my flight, I checked the log and the fuel used was: -####
(#### are numbers/quantity)

Thanks Armando Chibante! Good job!

[EHM-0962 Zhen Yi]

um.......well actually i have no idea what murray is talking about :$ further instructions?

hmm on the fuel........maybe it shows the fuel change?

[EHM-0744 Alex]

Youre right Joe, my mistake.

Thanks,

Alex

[EHM-1383 Syed]

This is the problem:

[EHM-0001 Gergely]

The only thing I can think of is that your plane is refueled automatically if you stop near a fuel station on an airport; so the fuel quantity at shutdown will be greater than the one at startup.

[EHM-0240 Joe]

I was having exactly the same problem with the fuel when I tried it out a couple of times today.

This seems to be the cause of the problem: It happens when you begin your flight with the engines already running, and the flight logger already working.

The solution I found was to start the flight, without the flight logger open. Then switch off the engines. Then open the flight logger, set up the flight logger, then switch the engines back on to start the logger.

It may also be possible to resolve this problem by changing your default flight so that flights begin with the engines already switched off, but I can't be bothered to go about changing my default flight.

[EHM-0588 Paul]

What I do is start the logger and then Flightsimulator. When it starts with the engines on I shut the engines down and then press the New Log button in the logger.

Then start the engines and the logger works fine.

[EHM-1077 Emanuele]

Wouldn't be simplier to save a default
flight with the engine off, so that every
time you start FS the engines are off?

Ciao ciao!

Manu

[EHM-1150 Armando]

Thank you all for your comments, they are a good contribution.
I'm out of my for the weekend, so I can't test the fuel 0 at startup in this moment; if you start the logger with engines on, just click Stop Log, then New Log buttons and then start engines normally.

0962, please set the screen resolution of your pc to 1024X768 and your FS resolution to 800X600; I think that will solve both problems; just call if you need more assistance.

Bye bye
