Globe Cargo

"Globe Cargo PIREPv2 is ready for release. The coding is complete tho I may make a minor adjustment to 1 item but will not delay its release. This version has exciting features, here's a list that also appears in the help/info file for GCP: General:

• Ability to set parking brake from GCP (in case it was released when you try to connect GCP to FS) Ability to pause FS from GCP. Able to restart a saved flight with no degradation of features or operation of GCP. GCP data saved with every autosave event. Autosave will always occur at block out and block in regardless of any autosave settings. This will eliminate any issue of an unintentional shutdown of FS or GCP from requiring any pilot to start from a cold dark cockpit and instead will be ready for engine start or pushback. Fool-proof user setup system that runs on the first execution of the program.

Autosave:

• Several intervals to choose from. Ability to inhibit scheduled autosaves based on flight regime. Ability to turn off autosave completely. Changes to autosave interval, inhibit, or on/off values can be made "on the fly" and will take effect immediately. Last 10 autosave points are retained. Ability to delete all autosave files at the completion of a flight.

Globe Cargo Virtual Airlines:

• Automatically downloads current list of active GC aircraft. Automatically downloads list of assigned GC flights. Download/upload PMDG 747-400 panel state and FMC routes allowing more realistic operation of aircraft. Failures that weren't cleared by the last pilot will appear on your aircraft. Oil will be consumed and will require replenishment over time. Fuel load will be the same as the last pilot left it. Switch positions will also be the same as the last pilot left them. Download/upload FS saved flights. If your flight in N412MC terminated at PHNL, a pilot flying PHNL to YSSY in N412MC will be able to download and load the FS flight placing the aircraft exactly where and how you left it (assuming the panel state is also loaded). Display currently active MEL items for your selected aircraft. Send PIREP to GCVA.

GCP can be used for you private flights as well however the features listed under GCVA above work only with GCVA flights. Unlike the previous version of GCP you can now use this version as a regular PIREP reporting program. GCPv2 is designed to be a fool proof and fail proof program. However, if it does fail, with the autosave feature turned on you will be perfectly capable of restarting GCP without any loss of data. As of now, I'm planning to release GCP early next week."

"Wow can it get any better!!!,,,i'm going to need a month off work just to play with all the new toys!! "

"Justin, the CRJ autopilot must be really fantastic to allow you all this free time to do this programming, many thanks! Luc "

"Hello, I have tried to get it, but it comes as an PDF version, and not an exe file. Looks very nice little prog, look forward Cyrille de Lattre"

"I have tried to get it, but it comes as an PDF version, and not an exe file. Just change the file type to .exe and you should be good to go."

"Hello, Thought about this, but still does not work. Cyrille"

not sure why you got a pdf file the download link is ...Globe Cargo Pirep.msi...which is a microsoft installer not a pdf or exe..just tried it again a second ago and all was well...try redownloading the file and see what happens Cyrille

"I downloaded GCP and installed it on my new computer yesterday. Worked problem-free with the ATR in FSX on Vista. Great job, Justin!"

I see you got a new bomb Michel; how is your Nvidia card working? No problems?

"When i download the file using Firefox it saved as a "Firefox Document" and clicking on it only opens a bunch of gibberish in a text viewer. I am also having no luck in either 1) using Internet Explorer, or 2) renaming/saving as as .exe file. Any other suggestions?"

standby one Rick and i'll pack it up and mail it to ya.. Ok should be in your mailbox

"Hey, After several trial I made it with IE7, but no luck with Mozzilia or Firefox. Which is very strange is the several errors I have had with IE7 before being succesfull. Strange. I think it work now, will try it tonight from FAJS to HKJK and HKJK to EHAM. Cyrille."

Keep getting the message 'to run this application you must install one of the following versions of the .NET framework:v2.0.50727.' What have I done wrong? or should I stick with FSACARS?? Best wishes John Ringwood 1072

John the program was written for microsoft's .net framework so you neen to install that first on your computer...here's a link to what you need from the microsoft site http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/deta ... laylang=en

Works great but then I started having some problems wihen I updated the driver. I may have to roll back to a previous version until they fix it. After googling the problem, it looks like many people are experiencing the same. As for FSX, it's awesome. The graphics are incredible and it's going to be even better once it starts using DX10. Right now, the card uses DX10 but FSX still uses DX9. I have FSGlobal 2008 with FSceneX and the ASX/XG bundle. I had to put in a larger power supply (700W). Also, although the 8800GTX plugs into 1 PCI-E slot, it is double wide and takes the space of 2 slots. so make sure you have the room for it."
