Somehow Google Earth Tracker is starting a new instance, and this is the reason for the error, the running instance is running well, and working, i think its a layer 8 problem ;)

Hi,
I'm glad your first problem has been solved. Yes, FSXGET requires SP2 installed. Sorry, maybe I didn't make that too clear ;) ... anyway, I might include a small check in the next version which informs you about this instead of crashing.
To your second problem: There are options to start FSXGET when FSX starts or when windows starts. If e.g. the option to start with FSX is set, and you start FSXGET manually before you start FSX, it'll be launched again by FSX and you'll have two instances running. I'll probably include a check for this, too, in the next version.
From: juergentreml (Coordinator)
On: Feb 12, 2008 at 2:18 PM
The version I've just released now contains checks for the operating system version, service packs installed and instances of FSXGET already running. So with the latest version, error as the ones you described above should no longer occur.

Hi,
I am getting this error as well but using Windows 7 RC. I can fly half way across the atlantic and then this pops up - normally when i am accessing a menu or something very strange but it runs for ages sometimes and then does it. I have updated my .NET Framework to beta 4 thinking that this might help but it still does it. I am considering going back to vista if i cant get it working - i need my fsx tracker. Any ideas?

I am attempting to run FSXGET on a networked computer which is already successfully linked to FSX using SimConnect.
I have installed Google Earth and FSXGET on the second networked computer.
On the main networked computer where I have FSX, I have run SimConnect Config Tool and made the recommended settings.
When I try to launch FSXGET on the second computer, I get a quick flash of an empty window (what I assume to be a setup screen where I need to set up the IP address), but the window immediately disappears and then nothing.
If I launch Windows Task Manager, I can see fsxget.exe under the Processes Tab, so I know it is running. However, there is nothing on screen. Alt-TAB results in nothing.
I have even manually edited the correct IP address for the main FSX computer into the FSXGET "settings.cfg" file located on the second computer.
Any direction would be most appreciated!

When you say you have already successfully linked FSX using SimConnect, how do you know? Are you using other programs with FSX over the LAN? For instance, mine already was set up to run PlanG and ASE over the LAN so it was nothing to get FSGet to work.
You may have a parameter incorrect in your .cfg file. Open the file Drive:\FSX Google Earth Tracker\SimConnect.cfg in any text editor and make sure you have:
Pprotocol=IPv4
Address= (your FSX PC IP address or computer name on network)
Port=500
Then restart FSGet.
For my setup, I am using my FSX PC's name, not the IP address and it works swimmingly. (Address=cosmos). All I do is click FSGet shortcut and open GoogleEarth and there I be. I do not get any AI traffic though yet. Still pluckin' at it.
Good luck.

I am running the configuration shown below.
When running FSXGET & GE on the same machine - FSXGET says it is connected to FSX. When I start Google Earth I see no symbol that shows the user aircraft or any AI craft.
When running FSXGET/FSX on the Game Machine and FSXGET/Google Earth on the client machine I see a message saying both the host and the client FSXGET are connected to FSX. BOTH FSXGET icons in the toolbar show small green arrows in the lower left corner. When I start Google Earth on the client machine I find no aircraft symbol. All Query settings in both the host and client FSXGET are at there default values.
I go to FSX Map and then use those lat/lon coordinates to zoom in and out in Google Earth and see no aircraft symbol.

Hi,
FSXGET : very, very nice software!
But I had a problem with GoogleEarth and I had to uninstall it. Unfortunatly, I am unable to reinstal it (error 1402)! Instead I install Google Earth Portable (GEP). GEP works well but FSXGET dont finds it. What I have to do to link FSXGET and GEP?
Thanks.

I finally succed to solve the 1420 error issue, unistall old GE and reinstall the latest version. FSXGET, FSX and Google Earth are together again!
The problem with Google Earth Portable still there but a solution is now less necessary. Thanks.

Well, the author claims this functionality is not a part of his programme, so I discovered it by pure luck and I suppose it has something to do with sim connect, feature of FS X. My setup of server& client machine:FSX is running on server; Google earth 4 + simconnect client + FSXGET 0.3.1 RC3 are on client.
-First of all share FSX(server machine)disks or folders: complete FSX, Documents and settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX&Dpcumentsandsettings\user\MyDocuments\Flight Simulator X files
Hope this helps.

Thanks for the setup instructions adr179,
I was gonna ask you for that, too ;-) ... as I already mentioned, maybe we can provide an easy to use automatic setup for that with some of the next FSXGET versions. Unfortunately that won't be too soon, but perhaps, anyone would like to contribute a howto article to the project page about the client/server setup?
I'd really appreciate that. So if anyone's willing to do so, please contact me!

Hi,
that's a good idea to implement an easy automatic setup for SimConnect.
I try to get it working for hours, but without success :-(
I found a comprehensive description how to install SimConnect with regard to Active Sky.
http://was.hifisim.com/ASXDocumentation/networkedconfig.html
I'm at my wits end
Is it possible to use WideFS instead of SimConnect?
I'm using FSUIPC and WideFS and as far as I understand WideFS is similar to SimConnect..

Hi,
The same problem over here. Absolutely impossible to connect through simconnect. I tried everything for hours and hours but I still end up with "FSX google Earth tracker waiting for a connection". I can see all shared folders and widefs connects immediately from the same client. Simconnect however refuses to connect
May I make the same suggestion as the last poster; can you make the next version of FSX GE tracker compatible to connect through widefs? Although the program is not free (simconnect isn't free either since you need to own the FSX deluxe version) it is in my opinion much much better than simconnect.

Rob

Hi,
thanks for your comments on running FSXGET on a computer different from the one running FSX and sorry for taking so long to respond.
Today I've released a new version of FSXGET, version 0.1 Beta 1. It includes options to easily setup for the configuration mentioned above. As you also need to make some changes to the Flight Simulator X configuration files, I've released another tiny tool which you'll have to run on the computer on which Flight Simulator is installed on. The tool is called SimConnect Config Tool and can be found on CodePlex here.
I've also update the HowTo article for setting up a configuration with two computers. You can find it here.
Feel free to give it a try and PLEASE keep on giving me feedback. Any errors, bugs, likes, dislikes, wishes?
Thanks,
Jürgen
PS: I didn't integrate WideFS so far. I've looked into it recently and to what I see, it's hardly documented and not completely available for the .NET framework. I'm note saying that it's impossible to integrate but for now it's just too much work unless anyone of you guys is volunteering! Since SimConnect comes with FSX and already supports remote connections and just is a little difficult to set up, I've decided to try to facilitate the process of setting up SimConnect. I hope that does the job, too!

Hello Jürgen,
Many thanks for your engagement regarding your great work in implementing the possibility of running FSXGET on a different computer.
Unfortunately I’m not able to get it running. I tried it on two different systems and on both systems I get she same error. When I try to start Google Earth from the FSXGET menu “Run Google Earth 4” a popup window shows the error message “An Error occurred while trying to start Google Earth”.
Do you have any suggestions to solve the problem?
Perhaps you can email me and we can talk via messenger or Skype in order to fix it?
Regards
Wilfried

Hi,
that seems kind of a strange problem. FSXGET doesn't try to launch Google Earth directly but to launch a KML file (which should be opened with Google Earth). Can you make sure that *.kml files are associated with Google Earth on your computer?
If unsure about that, just try uninstalling and reinstalling Google Earth.
Best regards

It says, waiting for connection and I see that it is going off of this .kml file but my IP isn't one of the options. I don't see much activity here, has this idea died?

To answer your questions: first of all: there is no readme section or help / intro file. sorry, but I didn't see the need for one.
Anyway, using the program should be fairly simple. fire up FSX and FSXGET (in whatever order you like). As soon as FSXGET detects that FSX is running, it will connect to it and the icon in the status bar should turn green. Now right-click the icon and select "Run Google Earth 4" and Google Earth should start with your FSX aircraft data already loaded.
I think though I might know where any confusion might come from: If FSXGET is not connected to FSX (i.e. the icon is not green) and you right-click it and hit "Run Google Earth" it will just start Google Earth without any aircraft data loaded. Might that be your problem?
Make sure both FSX and FSXGET are running and FSXGET displays with a green icon (i.e. is connected to FSX) AFTER ALL THAT IS THE CASE right-click the icon and select "Run Google Earth".
As for the last question: Yes, the project is kind of dead at the moment. I simply can't find the time anymore to continue working on it and since all of the other developers seem to suffer from the same problem, there's not much going on here at the moment. Sorry, but for the time being this is how it's going to be... unless there's any volunteers?!?!

Thanks for the reply,
Not sure Tacoma on what you said there, I never sent you emails, just added this new post and replied to another. Perhaps it is your preferences here?
As far as my issue, it is stated above. "It says, waiting for connection and I see that it is going off of this .kml file but my IP isn't one of the options"
It never connects is the problem, so I cannot make sure it is running (all green) because it never is, it never is because of the problem I listed. It always says "Waiting for connection". I am running this off the same PC as FSX but my IP is not listed as a choice to create the .klm file from.
I appreciate your time and thanks for the replies. I understand about time on special projects being limited. I wish I could help but I just don't know coding like this, other than some ruby batch file type stuff.

I have previously successfully used FSX Google Earth Tracker and found it very good.
Now after reinstalling FSX onto my computer, when I start FSX it says connected but after starting Google Earth manually,it now says awaiting connection to FSX and I dont seem to be able to use it.
FSX Google Earth Tracker appears on the side of Google Earth with user aircraft and current position flashing but no user aircraft showing on the map.The icon at the bottom of FSX has the green box but says awaiting connection.When I start FSX the icon says connected to Fsx but as soon as I select an airport and aircraft it says awaiting connection
I would love to have it going again.

I have asked a series of questions that were all caused by a crazy assumption I made when I first installed FSXGET - SORRY for all the bother.
I first installed FSXGET on the same machine where FSX and Google Earth run. That was a very simple installation that worked well the first try. Aircraft tracks appeared on GE and everything was A-OK except for the significant decrease in FSX Frame Rates.
SO I installed FSXGET on my laptop that also had an older Google Earth installed on it. I did the simconnect install on the remote machine with no problem.
Then I made the bad assumption! I just assumed, for no good reason, that FSXGET had to run on both the FSX host and on the Google Earth client machines. I knew Simconnect ran on both machines so I assumed that FSXGET also had to run on both machines. AND... that won't work most of the time! Occasionally it would work if the timing of starting the remote and host machine FSXGET processes were just right.
Finally, after reading the C code and watching the TCP traffic I realized that the remote FSXGET process generated the same Simconnect requests as did the host FSXGET. The remote FSXGET process did not talk to the host FSXGET - it talked to the host Simconnect. Well...DUH!
The first time I started FSXGET on the laptop with no FSXGET running on theFSX host - everything worked perfectly.
It seems obvious now but that initial assumption that the remote FSXGET process was a client for the host FSXGET process was hard to shake loose.
Great product - thanks for the hard working making the FSX mapping so interesting.

Hi:
I'm using Win7/64, with FSX on a server computer and GET on a networked client computer. I've installed GET on the client computer and the Simconnect tool on the server computer exactly as per the "how to" guides. Both computers are properly networked but I'm not 100% sure if any "sharing" options have to be enabled.
When I start FSX, the GET recognizes FSX and indicates that it's connected, but nothing happens. When I click on the GET icon, it says "waiting for connection."
So how does one actually set this up on networked computers so that it actually works?

I'm trying to install FSget on a PC not running FSX. When I launch FSget is says it needs to install SimConnect when I click install I get errors. But when I try to install the same thing on a PC running FSX everything works fine. Do you need to have FSX installed in order for this to work? It's stupid to install FSX on a PC just to have some program running. Is there a way to setup connection and have this working?

Hi Yan, FSGET links Flight Simulator to Google Earth. If you don't have an aircraft to fly, you don't have anything to link. Try Ctrl+Alt+A in Google Earth and you can sort of fly but it's a bit primitive after FSX. You will probably need a joystick but you can get away with keyboard and mouse.

Hi all, I have enjoyed using this software and have 3 questions I would love to ask. I have managed to get the GE map to move with the aircraft OK, but GE keeps changing its perspective from directly overhead the aircraft (preferred) to a different position. When I use the GE navigation tilt and compass to correct the map, it keeps springing back to the same tilted view.
Is there a way to get rid of the white line joined to the target user aircraft and is it possible to rename the user aircraft?
Many thanks, Chris Morgan

Hello...
I'm new to the open source concept, and think this is a great tool. I'm working on a project with a local museum, using SimConnect and GPS data from the "Streets and Maps" dongle.
Would there be any objection to extending the code to include data from a GPS to feed FSX and the Google map?
I've looked at the code enough to locate the "StructBasicMovingSceneryObject" structure and then, there'd be a poll in the timerQueryAircrafts_Tick event to refresh any GPS node in play.
The next issue would be to extend the Google maps integration, which I gather is in one of the .kml files?
Would there be any objection to using the source code for a one-off adaptation that supports the SimConnect project?
Thanks very much,
Kevin

Hi there.
This looks incredibly neat, and I want to use it, but it's just not working for me. I'm guessing there is a step I'm missing somewhere, since there doesnt seem to be much in the way of instructional documentation. I start FSXGET, have it start FSX, which it acknowledges connection to, have it start Google Earth, which it also acknowledges connection to... then... what am I missing from here on to make it work? Because FSXGET just sits saying 'awaiting connection' and nothing happens on the Google Earth map.
Is there some sort of setup to be done in Google Earth that I'm missing? Something to do with servers, I'll bet... but I'm not familiar with how this works. Do I have to be running a multiplayer session in FSX? Help!
Also, while I'm here, anyone know how I can make FSX run in a window? It really doesn't seem to like it when you switch apps!

Hi!
First of all to your final question: Switching to window mode is easy. When you're in a flight, press the ALT button to see the menu then click "View" and uncheck "Full screen". Pressing ALT+ENTER should do the same.
And no, you don't have to run a multiplayer session. FSXGET works fine for single player. The fact that FSXGET says "Waiting for connection..." in the tooltip seems to be a bug which should be corrected in the next version. I'll have a look at this. Anyway, the icon works fine, so if this show a green symbol in the left corner it is connected to FSX and everything should work.
One question: When you run Google Earth from the context menu of FSXGET, it started and then? Die you see some entries in google earth saying "User AIrcraft", "AI Vehicles", ... and you just didn't see any items on the map or has there nothing at all?
Make sure the you have checked "Load KML file when running Google Earth from context menu" in the options dialog of FSXGET and, although is is quite obvious, be sure you have selected at least one point on the "Flight Simulator X" tab in the options dialog. If you're not querying anything from FSX, you won't see anything. But i guess that's not the reason for your problem.
I last reason i could image to prevent FSXGET from working might be a firewall running. To export the FSX information to Google Earth the only efficient way is to run a web server, therefore FSXGET has an internal server running. Of course, as long as you running both application on the same computer Google Earth is only connecting to "localhost" ... anyway, make sure your firewall is not blocking this.
So if you still have no idea why it doesn't work, would be nice if you sent me some information about your system with the next post (Windows Version, Service Pack, .NET Framework Version, FSXGET Version). Besides, if you don't mind, send me a copy of the settings.cfg file in the FSXGET program directory.

Thanks for your reply. I think I have it all sorted now!
It seems that despite my having explicitly told my firewall to make exceptions for google earth and fsxget, my router was still silently disallowing the connection. Which I wish it wouldnt since I disabled it's internal firewall and it has a tendency to not give me any clue at all that it's the culprit. I should have realised - I've had similar problems with other software.
And I was right - it really is very neat having the two running together! thanks for such a cool little app!

Glad to here it's working fine now.
I would have been really surprised if this was a bug in my tool. "Nothing happens" is something you shouldn't find in my program. If there's a problem you normally get an error message telling you what's the problem ;-)
Anyway, if you like the tool have a look at the website every now and then. Within the next two weeks a new version should be available supporting new features such as saving recorded data to harddisk after your flight so you can view it later in Google Earth. This way you can even use the tool without Google Earth running while you're flying. Besides the next version will support loading and displaying flight plans in Google Earth (which is already implemented) and online checks for program updates / notification if there's a new version available.

Hello !
I'm looking for help about a little problem I'm experiencing with FSX-GET.
It used to work perfectly, but few days ago I had to reinstall FSX, and since then it's been impossible to launch the program again. When I try to, a message appears saying :
"SimConnect isn't installed on your system but is required. Do you want FSX Google Earth Tracker to automatically install SimConnect now ?"
I choose 'OK', and FSX-GET installs -or at least seems to- the required file. After a little while the software tells me the installation has been completed, and that it is going to restart. When it does, the initial message appears again as if nothing had happened before... and I found no way out of this endless circle. I tried to reinstall FSX-GET, to manually put a SimConnect-file downloaded from the net into my FSX folder, but nothing worked.
I'm using FSX-SP2 under Windows XP.
I hope that someone will be able to help me and I apologize if the present request isn't posted on the right part of the website.
Thank you a lot !

Hi all,
Maybe I'm wrong, but it seems that FXGET does'nt work with the latest version of Google Earth (4.3.7284.3916 (beta).
The problem is that Google Earth does no longer accept earlier version (3.xxx), even if you have it : you have to upgrade to enjoy GE...
Are some other users experiencing the same concern ? Is this issue known ? Any solution ?

Thanks for sharing your experience. I am not aware of any problems with the latest version of Google Earth either. I tried to test FSXGET with as many versions as possible and it seemed to work fine with all of them.
I see the above posts reporting problems are quite old. As far as I can remember there were some minor problems recognizing the installed version of Google Earth in older FSXGET versions. These issues should be fixed in the latest version though. So my recommendation if anyone still has problems: Uninstall Google Earth and FSXGET, get the latest version of both tools and install. If it still doesn't work, let me know and I'll have a closer look into it.
Btw: Nice to see FSXGET being used with Google Maps. Thanks for the link. I knew that in theory this should be possible since Google Maps supports KML now but I've actually never tried that myself.

You have no idea how long it took me (with my lack of programming knowledge) to get it to work with google maps. :)
The host/server machine running FSGET runs FSX Acceleration and this was the only way I could get it to show ALL traffic in Google maps.
If it was run with FSX Deluxe it would only show traffic within around a 100NM radius from the host/server.
I assumed that Sim Connect is slightly different in Acceleration and standard FSX?
Great app,
Thank you.

both pc using Windows Xp all patched.
The 2 instances of FSXGET communicate themselves (green square on the left bottom of the icon in the windows tray) but an error occurs everytime i press on the "enable tracker" button:
"FSX Exception!
Operation stopped. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004004

and it places my plane always at 0,0 (longitude, latitude), can't take my call id and other things, can't watch other planes, and so don't take my movements or nothing much.
i tryed to uninstall and reinstall it, nothing happens, always the same problem ( to take it i did a screenshot exactly after the pression of "enable tracker", cause the error stay visible just for a sec or less)
Can u help me? i hope to have written u all what u need.

I'm trying to use fsget with google maps.
I've got the kml into the map and all is working as it should apart from one major thing.
I can't see the icons :(
The info is there and if you click on the right place the bubble pops up but I need to point the info to an icon as the default won't show.
Any clever people know how I can add the default Google Aiports icon to the program?
I'm using the latest RELEASE (not any of the source codes) on vista 64 home.
I know it's probably a case of editing the program settings that create the KML but what do I edit?
Also when editing the KML with my external IP so google maps can see FSGET, the program won't show the Pictures in the bubble.
I've worked out this is because the code that writes the kml doesn't add the port needed (in my case 9016) to access the program.
For instance the picture shows this as the address http://thebigfsx.game-host.org/gfx/scenery/air/Bell%20206B%20JetRanger%20Paint3.png
Where as if you add my port like this http://thebigfsx.game-host.org:9016/gfx/scenery/air/Bell%20206B%20JetRanger%20Paint3.png
it will show.
Any help really appreciated as I've been trying for months and worked out I'm just not clever enough.

Hi Daniel,
you're right, development has somewhat stopped since the middle of June. Concerning myself, this is due to the fact that I've been busy moving back to my home country.
I've just updated the screenshot gallery so you can see some of the new features there are in the development version. The project has definitely not been abandoned. Unfortunately I won't be able to spend much time on it during the next three months. We're in absolute need of active developers! ;-)
Originally by CodePlex user juergentreml
After a new version of FSXGET has been installed, on first start it should check whether the settings file is from an older version and if so, upgrade it to the new version, preserving as many settings as possible.

Hello,
This program seems to be exactly what I was looking for. After much trial and error, I was finally able to get FSXGET on my PC (running FSX) communicating with FSXGET on my laptop (running Google Earth). I had not been letting FSXGET start my FSX and GE programs for me.
However, now my problem is that my current position in Google Earth is all zeros (0o00'00.00"N, 0o00'00.00"E) at altitude 0 ft. I am running FSXGET 0.1 Beta 3, FSX SP2, with WinXP on both systems.
What is strange is that when I started FSXGET and then Google Earth on my laptop, it initially showed me what I think were AI planes over China (where I was flying) for a few minutes. I didn't see my aircraft, but I watched the left "Places" panel blink as it was updating. I waited a few minutes and now I am stuck at 0o00'00.00"N, 0o00'00.00"E
The other possibly relevant item is that the FSXGET icons both say "waiting for connection" on mouse-over but FSXGET has added the "Current Position", "Flight Path", etc items to my "Temporary Places in Google Earth and they blink every few seconds like they think they are updating.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Try opening the KML (that you open in GE) with note pad and check the port stated is open on your router and that the IP is correct.
I had this probelm and worked out FSGET generated a KML file for my LAN and I needed it to open in Google maps, so had to change it to my Internet IP and then it showed where my aircraft was.

(Also known as "Elvis has left the building.")
I'm a long-time FSX user and have had FSxGET working in the past (up to about 2011). Spent most of the day today trying to get FSXGET going on my FSX-exclusive HPxw9400. It has tons of memory and disk space. It was behaving reasonably well (at least it was loading) this morning but now it throws "FSX Google Earth Tracker has stopped working" messages whenEVER I try to start it. I've tried configuring on another machine, wiping all trace of FSXGET and SimConnect from the machine and re-downloading/reinstalling... everything I could think of. Nada.
I'm running W7 Pro. Anybody have any suggestions?

Put all string for messages, UI captions and Google Earth KML data in the assembly resource. Thus it would be easy to create multilingual version of FSXGET.

Copy "Current Position" in Google Earth and paste back in the same folder so you have two. Rename one "Current Position Notrack" and the other "Current Position Track". Open Properties \ Refresh and select the "Fly to view on Refresh" Button. The only trouble with this is you zoom in very close until you get some altitude you won't see very far except straight down. If anyone knows how to tweak the altitude setting, please post?

HI,
I don't know if someone still reading this discussion or not but I give it a try anyway... I'm actually using this amazing tool (thanks a lot by the way!!!) but I need to have the reel elevation when GE is drawing flight path. Actually it seems like the path is at the wrong height when the terrain is check. When the plain is on the ground, GE show me 29 meters... Maybe there's a way to offset the entire path after it's saved on disk? It looks like the Height is drawn at sea level and not regarding the eight of the terrain... Many thanks,

sorry for being abit of a dunce...but how do i set this up? i was flying with someone who gave me a link to load into google earth so i could see it all happening....how do i set mine up so i can just send a link to other people on a similar sort of basis?
i have it working (i think) on my own computer, or at least my aircraft shows up on google earth where it should be :-)
is there some kind of documentation for this tool? as i couldn;t find any on a cursary glance...

You'll need to create a KML file and open it with google earth.
You can do this by right clicking the FSGET icon on the bottom right and selecting Create Google Earth KML File.
Make sure that the IP stated in the file is your external IP for other people to view it.
You can edit the KML file in something like notepad and get your latest IP from somewhere like http://whatismyip.com.
You may have a dynamic IP in which case your IP will change now and then and you will have to keep the KML file up to date with your latest IP for it to work.

No it won't so you'll have to create it for your Local IP then edit it in notepad changing the lan IP to your external IP.

Try opening FSX and google earth from inside FSGET in the system tray. (Start FSGET first) It created the kml for me automatically and I just moved it from temporary to My Places.

Running BOTH FSX and Google Earth Tracker on the Game Machine works perfectly. The User aircraft position and all the AI aircraft track just as they should in the Google Earth window.
When I run Google Earth Tracker (GET) on the remote machine the user aircraft does not display in the Google Earth window. The information balloon that appears above the GET icon in the task bar after I start GET says “Connected to FSX!” until I start Google Earth using the “Run Google Earth” option that appears with a right click on the task bar icon.
After I start Google Earth the message when rolling over the GET icon changes to “(Waiting for Connection)” but there is a little green arrow in the bottom right corner of the task bar icon.
No aircraft data ever appears in the remote Google Earth map window.

UPDATE - MORE DATA
When FSXGet starts on both the host (Vista/SP2) and remote(XP/SP3) I see the following message. I use the netsh/http/show iplisten command and find that there are no listeners established on either machine. I can get the ports established on each machine but their status (shown by netsh/interface/ip/show tcpconn) is "established" BUT NOT LISTEN. I am running fsxget.exe with elevated privledges on the VISTA machine.
How do I determine what process is preventing HttpListener to be added?

This worked for me after two days on-and-off fiddling.
Below is the "Read Me" I wrote for myself.
Vista - server/XP - remote.
To install on remote computer:
1)Set up SimConnect on both machines.
2)Run FSXGET setup.exe on remote.
3)Run FSXGET and install FSX Google Earth Tracker.msi upon prompt.
4)Run Google Earth Tracker on remote and right-click options at tray icon.
5)In Flight Simulator-Connection tabs - configure relevant settings.Exit.
6)Start Google Earth.
7)Select right-click again and Create Google Earth KML File.Exit
To run FSXGET:
1)Run Google Earth Tracker.
2)Start Google Earth.
3)Start FSX.
4)Wait for balloon notification on remote - "Connected to FSX!".
5)In Google Earth go to File and open KML file.
6)Click "User Aircraft" in left-hand pane.
7)Select/Unselect what you want to show.
8)Fly!!
Hope this helps someone.
Anybody know how to keep aircraft centered on map?
Thanks.

Nevertheless, there is an option in Google Earth when you right-click a placemark and have a look at the property pages. You can select to center the view on this placemark. This will make google earth follow it when it's position is update.
This works but isn't very smooth neither does it allow you to control any viewing options, but these features will most certainly be present in future versions of FSXGET.

Firstly let me say a big thank you, this was exactly what I was looking for for our site.
Bit of background, I run an FSX website we are not a VA just a place to share stuff (Downloads, help each other etc).
I run a dedicated FSX server for our site members (and others if Gamespy lets it show) from home on an old PC.
So just a few questions if you don't mind answering them.
I'd like to run this app on our server machine with FSX and host a Google or virtual earth map displaying the information, is this possible?
I have had 0.1 Beta 2 working by sending the KML created to my web hosting and opening it with Google earth on my other machine but could not see all the AI traffic, If i moved the host Aircraft closer to most of the traffic then I would pick up more but not all, is there a setting perhaps that limits how far the host aircraft can be?
Although I have had Beta 2 working as above after downloading Beta 3 I haven't managed yet to start the app, can somebody point me in the right direction?
P.S I have had beta 3 working on my PC running Vista but the server runs XP.
Server specs (PC FSGET and FSX are running on) are as follows:
AMD Athlon 2600+ (running at 2.8 not clocked)
1 GIG of memory
Radeon 9800 pro
Windows XP
Thanks for any help and keep up the excellent work

Hmmm, well it's been a couple years now, so how's it going with the progress? If it's stopped in it's tracks how about releasing the development version? I like the program even though I've yet to get it to work, seems to be saying waiting for connection and my IP isn't any of the choices it gives. I don't think I'd be interested though if it doesn't auto track as in stay on your aircraft. I would think it would be nothing more than creating a key press but then again the code I'm familliar with is Ruby.

I am becoming very frustrated!
OCCASIONALLY - everything works correctly and I can track user and AI craft on Google Earth - either running GE on the same machine as FSX or on a remote machine.
MOST OF THE TIME- FSXGET (both local and remote to FSX) says it is connected to FSX but no user or AI aircraft data appear in Google Earth
My problem is that when GE is displaying user and AI aircraft tracks and predictions I then shut down FSX, GE, FSXGET and then restart them and the next time I get the connection message but no tracking and no predictions.
I am pretty sure the remote and local machines are talking to each other because I can see TCP traffic that starts and stops in synch with the starting and stopping of FSXGET
I have tried all permutations of starting FSX / FSXGET(local) / FSXGET(remote) / Google Earth and no permutation conistently gives positive results.
I have been a professional systems and applications programmer for over 40 years and I know how little you can trust "BUT - I didn't change a thing!"
As near as I can tell I am making no changes to any FSXGET parameters between the succesful, then unsuccesful, then succesful again runs.
Any suggestions??
From: shedman51

Try setting the options in FSGET to open itself (in the system tray) when you start FSX. Then right click FSGET and open Google Earth from within FSGET and the FSX Earth Tracker will install itself in "Google Earth Temporary Places". Once you have it, move it to "My Places" and you can switch it on and off from there.

2 hours into a flight, of course. I did not have google earth running on the fsx computer, just your FSGET tracker.
I was running heavy settings and external weather program as well. 6.5GB ram in use before the crash.
Funny thing is, I noticed a few memory crashes a week ago, and discontinued loading this tracker but today I thought: 'let's give FSGET the benefit of the doubt.'

Hello,
First of all, thanks for your software. Good freeware is always appreciated by the community. :-)
My post is not really a feature request, but maybe you can help me. Can you run Google Earth and FSX on two different machines ? We all know that FSX is a ressource eater ;-) so I avoid running any other apps with it.
Seems that you spoke about an HTTP server. Unfortunately I don't have two Windows machine to test it even if it's possible.

Hi,
the answer is yes and no. You're absolutely right about FSX eating up resources. I'm testing with both programs running on the same machine but have set flight simulator to lowest graphics modes.
Nevertheless, the program is designed to make it possible running google earth on a different machine. This even works in the current (0.0.2.0) release, although there is a small bug displaying the images and icons on a remote machine which will be corrected in v0.0.3.x. The next release will also support generating a KML file to easily load the network links in google earth on remote machines.
So for now, with v0.0.2.0, as I didn't find time to put a short documentation online yet, I can just tell you how to set up network links manually in google earth:
Just create a new network link in Google Earth pointing to the maching running FSX Google Earth Tracker in the following form: http://:/ with beeing:
fsxu.kml for the user aircraft position
fsxp.kml for the user path
fsxpre.kml for the user course prediction
fsxaip.kml for AI planes
fsxaih.kml for AI helicopters
fsxaib.kml for AI boats
fsxaig.kml for AI Ground Units
As I said, this will be much easier with the upcoming version which is almost done. In addition, v0.0.3.x will support more security features for the HTTP server (e.g. local connection only) and more features on loading image and icon files into google earth (e.g. network shares, ...). Besides it has course prediction not only for the user aircraft but also for all AI objects.

Cool ! :))
It works perfectly on the same machine (although it took me some time to figure out that I changed the port number of simconnect :P) but has a problem on two machines.
The client machine is running GE under Linux and shows me a "HTTP 400" Error. I dumped the network traffic to show the exact error message :
GET /fsxu.kml HTTP/1.1

Looks like it doesn't like the hostname encoded in the http query. I forged an http request, just by changing the "Host:" header line to request "localhost:8085" and I got the correct result. So I'm nearly sure the bug come from the configuration of the HTTP server api you used.
Hope this will help you to fix that bug :)

Thanks for your post ... I'm really interested in getting feedback to improve the tool.
This bug might be due to an error of mine. Might be that I have accidentally restricted the HTTP server to respond only to requests directed towards localhost. I came across this a day ago and it should already be corrected in the current development version.
Nevertheless, I'd be happy if you gave it another try a soon as v0.0.3.0 is ready for release. Unfortunately, due to the fact that I'm spending a few months abroad in Spain, I have quite limited resources at the moment, i.e. nothing but my notebook ;-)
If you give me your e-mail address or any instant messaging id, I'll let you know as soon as I have a stable version.

I've published version 0.0.3.0 which should now be able to deal with Google Earth running on a different machine. I've tested this using a virtual machine.
So have another try if you like it.

Running Google Earth under Linux WITHOUT appropriate drivers sound a bit like running FSX, Google Earth and a Developer Environment on a mobile PC even WITH appropriate drivers! ;-)

Hi Juergen
Thx a lot 4 the "cute" and great programme. As another member wrote, nowadays is hard to find good stuff for free ......
Sorry for the silly question, but I was wondering if there is any chance that your programme could show on google earth VORs, NDBs and ILSs frequencies.......
For the record, I have installed your programme with no problems and connected right away to FSX and Google.....like a charm. I still have to try to use it on 2 machines, as at the moment I have only one PC..... :)) :))
Thx again and hope to find more and more great FSX utilities in your site.
Ciao

Hi,
thanks for your post. Nice to get a little feedback about the program. To your question: It's not that silly, in fact these features have already been implemented for the upcoming version. From version 0.0.4.0 on, it will be possible to load an show flight plans in Google Earth including all waypoints, VORs, ... besides there will be an online update function and logging features.
Except the latter one, which shouldn't be too much work, all features are already implemented and working. It's just a few details that need to be fixed to release the program. Nevertheless, at the moment I just can't find the time to do so. I'll try to release a new version during Christmas holidays although I don't wanna make any promises. Besides, I'm right at publishing the whole project as Open Source on CodePlex (http://www.codeplex.com/fsxget), so that interested programmers can contribute to it and thus speed up the development process a little ;-)
So just come back in two weeks time and you should find a new version online. If not, I'll at least publish a BETA marked version as the current code is already pretty stable. I'd be happy to get feedback on the new features from you then.

First of all, thanks for your software ! from my point of view is REALLY better than fsearth.
Here is some suggest
I use fsearth for doing ATC control ! But i prefer you fsget cause the capability to see helicopter and other something...
Are you able to : Create An ATC radar control !
Do something able to see flight plan from local aircraft But also multiplayer aircraft ... you will do my year with that !
Capability to change mesure unit in feet and to see the altitude without clic on the icon
Show prediction with second unit mesurement.
Sorry for my poor english, but i expect that you will be to understand my request
Keep up you work !

Hi Juergen 'n anyone in this forum. At first let me say, Juergen, that I like your tracker-tool very much. It's my partner on every flight I do with my FSX. Now I have a question not especially concerning your tool, but Google itself. Is it possible to center the User Aircraft in the middle and let the earth move? I didn't find it until this moment. Anyone could help?
Thks a lot and happy simming!

Hi folks,
sorry for not answering for a quite a while but I've been pretty busy over the last weeks. Anyway, I tried not forget about your posts as well as an e-mail I got mentioning compatibility issues with Windows Vista and FSXGET. In what concerns the latter thing, I've just published FSXGET as open source on CodePlex (http://www.codeplex.com/fsxget) so that this person can have a look at the source code and try to identify the problem (as he offered to do this). Besides, I'll try to have a look at it myself during the next few days.
But now to the posts here in the forum:
@ Daniel Maheux
Creating an ATC radar control shouldn't be too much of a problem, although, of course, a bit of work. At the moment I can't remember Google Earth to offer a way to write your own plugins. So such an ATC radar would have to be a separate application (not running inside Google Earth). Anyway, I'll have a look at Google Earth again whether there really is no way to display custom windows or controls inside it.
About the units: That should be quite an easy thing, maybe a switch to select which units to prefer or just displaying both units at the same time. I'll think about this and I'll try to include it in the next version of FSXGET.
The display of flight plans, etc. is already implemented and included in the source code version available on CodePlex. Nevertheless I still need to improve the user interface to make these features more comfortable to use. But this will for sure be part of the next version that'll be released.
@ Easyrider
Glad to here that you like FSXGET. For the moment, the only way to automatically center the view on the aircraft position is by right clicking the user aircraft entry in the object list to the left and selecting properties. There should be a check box somewhere saying "center the map to this location" or something like that. Unfortunately I'm at a public computer right now and don't have access to Google Earth, so forgive me if the explanation is somewhat inaccurate. I'm sure you'll be able to find that check box. In any case, I'll try to add a few more options to control the view to the FSXGET settings dialog with one of the next versions of the tool.
Thanks at the two of you for your feedback. I hope I'll be able to publish a new version this month.

Yet another thing: For further feature requests or bugs, you're free to use the "issue tracker" on CodePlex (http://www.codeplex.com/fsxget) now. There's as well a "discussion" feature for general talk about the tool. And please, don't be afraid if you're the first one to post there ;-)

Hello everybody, hello Juergen!
Just a suggestion for further development of FSXGET: a function to run fsxget + google earth on a client machine if FSX runs in a "server" would, by my
opinion, be a good solution. I tried to fiddle around a bit with this kind of setup and got nothing of course, but I have a feeling if only there was option to point
to the location of FSX everything would actually work. Would you consider in building this functionality in your application that otherwise performs fine on a local machine and also google earth on client + fsxget+fsx on server configuretion works fine.
From: juergentreml (Coordinator)
On: Jun 17, 2007 at 8:54 PM
Hi adr170,
thanks for your feedback. The idea of running FSXGET on a machine different from the one running FSX did also come up to my mind. Unfortunately using the means Microsoft provides with the FSX API, there's no "easy" way to do so. It's not too complicated either but it's more than just flipping a switch somewhere and it'll work.
The feature you suggested will be on the To-Do list but please don't expect it too soon. It'll probably be a while till we get to that one.

Hello Juergen,
just downloaded the latest release = GE Tracker 0.0.3.1 RC3 and IT WORKS on a client machine,
exactly the setup I mentioned in my previous post.
What puzzles me is you're saying that this functionality is still on "to do" list?
What I did? Actually nothing special, uninstalled the previous version and did a fresh install of RC3. I then cranked everything up, as said FS X running on server machine and Google Earth + FSX Google Earth tracker running together on client. Could it be the simple fact that connectivity is established because of runung the MS FS X SDX SimConnect.msi, the part that SDK says needs to be ran on client machines. I actually ran it in order to make Active Sky running on a client machine and following the instructions provided with network setup of Active Sky that requires some editing of simconnect configuration file.

Hi adr179,
sorry it took me THAT long to answer. I've been somewhat busy moving back to my home country.
Actually, your right, seems that simconnect by design offers network support, i.e. running it on a machine different from the one you're running FSX on. I must have overseen that somehow. That's why I thought this is a feature we need to implement directly in FSXGET and told you that it's on the to do list. That was definitely my fault!
So now, as there's no need to implement this feature, maybe we could at least provide some automatic configuration utility to setup simconnect for client / server mode.
Thanks for your feedback on this feature!

Happy to see Fsget back alive ! i use it EVERY DAY since first version !
Here is my "wish list" ;-)
It's possible to have switch for change METER to FEET ?
Capability to show the 2.5 min prediction only
Yes i know Flight plan is planned, (Thank's) but maybe on the next release ? ;-)
Squawk code ( Transponder )
In Google, ai description on this form :
TYPE / ID

ALT / SPEED

Hi,
thanks for your feedback.
I should be able to put some (optional) conversion of meters to feet into the next release. That shouldn't be too much work.
about the prediction points: that's already possible, it's just the user interface that is not complete so far. but you can edit the config file directly. It's an XML file located in your user application data folder, e.g. on windows vista C:\Users<yourusernane>\AppData\Roaming\Jürgen Treml\FSX Google Earth Tracker<versionnumber>\settings.cfg"
it's an XML file and somewhere in it, you'll find:
<user-path-prediction Enabled="1" Interval="1000">
<prediction-point Time="30" />
<prediction-point Time="150" />
<prediction-point Time="300" />
<prediction-point Time="600" />
<prediction-point Time="1200" />
</user-path-prediction>
as you can guess, it's the predictions points (in second). just add or remove entries as you wish.
about the transponder code ... i'll look into that, if there's a way to get it from SimConnect API, it should be easy to add. just as changing the formatting of AI description.
last but not least flight plans: I started integrating them but it's a bit more work than I thought because there's a lot of details to account for. don't know whether I can do that for the next release. We'll see!

Just released new versions which includes selectable units. I didn't have time to do the GUI so far but you can select the unit type via the config file.
In the config file look at the node where you'll find something like:
<ge>
<units>1</units>
...
</ge>
Set the value to '0' for meters or '1' for feet.
Note: Make sure you edit the config file in the folder corresponding with the version in the about box of FSXGET, i.e. the config file of the version you've installed on your computer.

Forget my last two messages! As of today, with the latest version of FSXGET, it's possible to select display units and edit course prediction points through the GUI.

Hi JTR,
First everything woks perfectly ! for futur... i come back with the way how we see "ai arcraft"
I use Fsget for doing ATC with my friend group. 2 thing miss for a perfect ATC radar. The way how i see my friend, and the flight plan, on the case juste departure and arrival will be correct, but if we can see all plan thats should be great !
The way how we see other pilot...
The windows showing an aircraft picture is funny, but with all aircraft addon coming in future, will be difficult to keep up to date this feature. I think the standard radar way showing label TAG look like "aircraft id / aircraft type / Speed / Altitude" and all visible permanently on screen would be great ! Lets me know if you anderstand this request... i'm very poor in english, i can send a picture for explain my suggestion

I had a short look into replacing the default labels with some more advanced ones. You can see a first screenshot here. It's not final, it's just a first draft. But I guess that's basically what you'd like to see, right?

Greetings, FSGET is an awsome tools to keep track of who's playing on the server. In addition to their aircraft ID, anyway google tracker can also display their Gamespy ID and IP addr's in google earth? I been searching for a tool to try to get their IP so I can ban bad players at the firewall level. FSX provides the banning capability but it doesn't stop players from comming back on the server.
Cheers and thanks for the great tool.

I couldn't find any information related to Vista 64 on Codeplex, but I guess FSXGET is just incompatible, since I have all frameworks installed. Can anyone confirm that?

I used FSXGET for a long time in FS2004, but now I tried with Vista 64 bit and FSX + SP1 + AP and I got two Microsoft .NET Framework messages with an "Unhandled exception" error (see errors description below) and, after those errors, FSXGET crashes. I couldn't find any information related to Vista 64 on Codeplex, but I guess FSXGET is just incompatible, since I have all frameworks installed. Can anyone confirm that?Thanks,

Sorry for not being able to get to you earlier. It's definitely been a bug in FSXGET and it's fixed in the latest version (released today). It should work on x64 systems now.

I've tryed all kind of settings, IPv4 and IPv6 but I just cannot get the Tracker to work. I've 2 Windows 7 PC's, one with FSX and the second with Tracker and Google Earth. Firewall disable, IP-Settings double-checked but no success. I've another tool named Plan-G working over the network with the same settings and no problem.
Any suggestions?

FSX Earth Tracker is awesome !! It was exactly what I needed to track my flights.
It took about 10 minutes to get it setup (configuring the simconnect on the FS/x computer)
It works awesome, and shows my 'user aircraft' and all the landmarks/AI traffic, and POI
that I choose.
Just one question; and I have searched the forum for a hint...
How (or can I) have Google Earth 'move' and keep my plane centered ?
Thanks

Your idea seems to be great. I hope it will be implemented. I also was fascinated for this tool but some little incovenients there are. I have all the time to switch between the game and google earth to see my location. For this incovenient it will be nice to be possble from FSX to add a small window with the google earth image. More than this, it will be nice if some sets will display during my flight picture by picture along my trip way, accordingly to some sets, front direction angle, closest distance for image prioriti, resize picture all to the small window. These will be nice features, I will try to understand how it was programmed from source, i I could help I'll be back.
Anyway, nice job, and me congratulations for your work!
