MCP Pro showing Zero's After Purchasing GoFlight Interface Tool from Polypotsoftware
Please Help: MCP PRO Just showing Zero's After Purchasing GoFlight Interface Tool from Polypotsoftware
My MCP Pro was working fine on Windows 8.1 using FSX until I upgraded to Polypot GFI.
I was using the GF 2.1.19.5 with PMDG 737 and PMDG 777 NGX Aircraft
The reason I upgraded to the new GFI was that I purchased the PMDG 747 V3 which my MCP Pro could not recognise.
Currently none of the PMDG aircaft work with MCP Pro. They just show a series of Zero's on the MCp Pro. By turning the knobs the numbers change on the aircarft but they remain Zero on my MCP.
This only applies to PMDG aiurcraft. The Default FSX aircaft work fine.
I am a novice at this and I would be obliged if someone could help. Have been downloading and deleting files for the past 24 hours in the hope that I can find a fix.
The following is a log from my GIT

Also make sure you are running the FSX version of GIT and not the FSX SE version.
Thx
Steve
I will get back to you once I have gone through your suggestions.
I checked the Op Centre in PMDG. I can confirm that I have the latest Version PMDG 737/800 version 1.10.6461 - PMDG777 200/LR 1.10.7025 and PMDG 747-8 V3 Version 3.00.8189
Following your message I uninstalled and re-installed the GIT and checked the Module in FSX dll.xml
The installation instructions on the GFIT downloaded from PolypotSoftware suggested that we should add the following which I did
========================
GoFlight Module Interface
False
C:\Program Files (x86)\GoFlight\GoFlight Interface Module.dll
=======================
Following your message I checked the file and found another instance of the same code in the file
====================
PMDG Events
False
PMDG\DLLs\PMDGEvents.dll
PMDG Sounds
False
PMDG\DLLs\PMDGSounds.dll
GoFlight Module Interface
False
C:\Program Files (x86)\GoFlight\GoFlight Interface Module.dll
===========================
I deleted the default and left your code as suggested. It did not work
I deleted your code and left the original. It still did not work
As requested, I checked my purchase of the GFIT on the PolypotSoftware site to make sure it was the correct version. GITFsx.zip.
Please note that my original GF Drivers and GFIT worked fine with both the PMDG737NGX and the PMDG777. I purchased the PMDG 747 v3 on the 24th April and noticed that the GoFlight MCP Pro would not synchonise with the 747. For this reason I purchased the GFIT from Polypot Software.
Since I downladed and installed the GFIT none of the PMDG aircraft synchronize with the MCP Pro. I only get 0000 on the MCP Pro.
I should point out that when turning the dials on thge MCP Pro the numbers change on the aircraft but the MCPro remains at 0000
This does not apply to default FSX aircraft. They all seem to communicate well with the MCP and numbers and dials synchronise.
I removed the GIFT purchased from Polypotsoftware and installed the previous versions that worked. Unfortunately they no longer work.
I noticed that when I start the computer and load GFIT and FSX, the GFIT part of the log shows 11:27:48 FSUIPC: Connection Failed: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:8385

Am I correct to assume that the GFIT has been tested to work on the latest PMDG 777/ 737 and 747 V3 flight as they may have added stuff since your release that create a conflict. As mentioned everything works with the PMDG MCP and the numbers change on the aircraft with the exception that the 0000 numbers do not change/ on GoFlight Pro MCP. The MCP Pro seems to be sending data out to PMDG but not synchronising back to the MPC Pro.
11:29:04 NGX To MCPPRO: The type initializer for 'A. ' threw an exception.
11:29:04 SimConnect: Exception Received: UNRECOGNIZED_ID

Yes it has been tested, I have all three and so do many other users. There is something wrong with your particular installation that we need to diagnose so its going to be trial and error.

Thank you for your help. I will get back to you once I receive a reply " Hopefully"

As instructed I uninstalled the PMDG 737NGX / PMDG 777 and PMDG 747 V3 from my computer.
Re installed the 737NGX but I still get 0000 on my mcp pro

whether I can make the MCPRo sync again.
GFconfig version 2.26.1

The GFIT was installed in a seperate directory with a pointer to the Goflight

Except for the following error in the log

the MCPpro syncs with NGX and all the buttons and dials are functioning. No more 00000s
I am slso not receiving the following error in the log when any of the dials are turned on the mcp pro

What should i try next to make your software work. Should I install it on top of the existing installations?
Thanks
Cyrus
Further to the above and in your installation instructions it states :
" You should choose to install the software where you Goflight drivers have been installed (where GFConfig.exe and GFDev.dll reside). If you choose to install in another directory you will need to start the Goflight Interface Tool, click the Settings tab and select the directory where the Goflight drivers exist."
In your settings of the GFIT there is no section where we can point to a directory where Gfw.dll resides. This option is available in my old GFIT 2.1.19.5
I also do not understand the following"
4) Double check any programs that you use to interface with GoFlight hardware have been disabled or their configurations do not duplicate what you intend to do with the GoFlight Interface Tool. E.g. FSUIPC, LINDA. Note there is full compatibility with FSUIPC with the correct settings.
Thanks
Cyrus
11:39:48 GoFlight Worker Thread Failed: Unable to load DLL 'GFDev.dll':
by copying the GFDev.ll from the Goflight Directory to the GFIT directory.
The system works with no errors and the mcp has no issues.
Please bear in mind that this is the old version of the GFconfig and the GFIT and not the one supplied by Polypotsoftware
As I have not heard anything today on my issues, regarding 0000s appearing on my mcp pro... I tried to again download your software to experiment and find a solution this 4 day ordeal. On your site it states Expiry = Never LEFT 22 and when i try to enter the code to activate the software it states Registration Failed: Exceeded install Count.
There is no mention on your site on the number of times I can install this software on my system.
Thx
Steve
I hope you are feeling better.
Yesterday I installed my original GfConfig version 2.27.0 and GFIT version 2.1.19.5 together with PMDG 737NGX /PMDG 777 and the latest PMDG 747 v3.
All the aircraft except for the 747 vs are working fine with the MCP Pro with no errors.
I tried to install your version on top of the GFIT when to my frustration I got the message I exceeded the download. I understand that you have now re-set the counter.
I will follwow your suggestion this evening to downlad and install your GFIT on top of my existing one. I just hope somehow it works. I have lost count on the number of times I have installed and removed both aircraft and GFIT during the last 4 days.
Will keep you informed.
Again hope you are better.
Regards
Cyrus
followed your instruction to install your verion of the GFIT on top of the working one. Unfortunately I get the same problem as before. A series of 0000's on the Gfpro MCP.
On my old working version, when turning the dials i get no errors. On yours each time a dial is turned the following error appears

Left Prior - Right After
i only notice a couple of changes...
Also could be a messed up .NET framework or visual studio not installed properly, Have you run windows update to make sure those are up to date?
Have you tried starting GIT after you start the sim and load the aircraft?
How are you launching the sim/choosing the aircraft? Do you load a default first then the 747 or straight into the 747?
A VERY BIG THANK YOU
I followed your recommendations and updated .NET Framework. The software works perfect with GoFlight Pro and the MCP. All aircraft now functional and I must admit much better than before.
I also changed the way I access the program. I used to run GFConfig first and then GFIT. Now I just run GFIT before launching FSX.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your patience and support.
Finally I would be obliged if you could advise whether you have developed a GFIT to support Xplane 11 under Mac.
Again .....thank you a million times. Six days of frustration came to an end.
Best wishes
Cyrus
There is no Mac support as the user base (Mac with GoFlight) is so small, it isn't cost effective to develop for the platform.
Best wishes
