fs2ff suddenly not working- shows auto- connecting all the time

[chloroformaa]

Hi..i was successful running fs2ff and it really is a great product...i was running the running the version 0.1.13 but suddenly it showed "unable to connect to flight simulator" when i tried connecting...i noticed that there is an update to .14 version but that shouldnt matter from what i read in one of the other threads....anyways, i decide to update it to new version which has auto-connect functionality...it keeps on showing "auto-connecting" and doesnt get connected...If i disable the auto connect option and manually try to connect, it shows the same error as earlier version which is "unable to connect to flight simulator".....i tried re-installing the fs2ff also but still not connecting....any fix to this?

astenlund no longer supports this program... There are two components that allow this connection. The Fs2FF and the SimConnect dll that interfaces with FS. Try downloading the latest FS SDK from the developer tab in game.
I have a branch of Fs2FF that I built to use GDL90 and some other fixes. You can download that version from here: https://github.com/jeffdamp-wave/fs2ff. I also suggest not using AutoConnect and make sure the IP to the device you are using is correct.

@jeffdamp-wave Thank you for taking care of the project in my absence, it seems to be in good and capable hands. Can I redirect to your fork from my page? I am no longer flying IRL, so it's hard for me to continue supporting the application. You can email me at [email protected] if you'd like to discuss things a bit.

Sure feel free to redirect. I haven’t had much time to update my code either but I think I can manage at least maintaining it. Maybe I’ll look into signing my .exe and doing some other updates (like getting on a more recent version of .Net).
