XP-12 and SPACARS was created by SmittyBRS
I'm currently unable to send ACARS generated PIREPS . Infact I'm not able to get SPACARS to connect to XP-12. I am certain it's a XPUIPC problem once again and suspect it's being caused by either a recent upgrade of XP-12 and/or XPUIPC compatibility. I've tried numerous versions of XPUIPC but none seem to work.
I can either use manually generated PIREPS until I can figure this out and/or be placed on a LOA until I can find a work-around. XP-12 is doing hugh upgrades all through the Summer.The upgrades are sometimes only weeks apart and are delivered either by public beta or full version changes. XPUIPC , at least to my knowledge isn't.. I love flying in the SPA world but this constant compatibility stuff is a PIA and I hope I can figure a way to make XP and XPUIPC play nice together.
*******UPDATE******* Found a XPUIPC and a configuration that seeems to be working . Yes, I'm still using a PIREP sheet to keep track of the flt info when it doesn't

Smitty,
Sorry that you were having compatibility issues with SPAACARS. Unfortunately, it would be up to the developers of XUPIPC to resolve any compatibility issues by matching XUPIPC with FSUIPC functionality. SPAACARS relies on memory locations set by FSUIPC. SPAACARS was actually never developed for the Xplane simulator, but XUPIPC's development allowed XPlane users to use 3rd party programs, like SPAACARS, enjoyed by MS Flight Simulator users. When XPlane updates deviate from these memory assignments, it's up to XUPIPC developers to make the necessary adjustments so that SPAACARS can read and write to the same memory locations supported by FSUIPC. You would need to consult with the XUPIPC developer's website/forum for solutions when problems occur.
Yes - our manual pirep entry is always an option, but yes, it can be a pain to do all of that manually. I'm glad you've found a work-around for the time being.
Happy flying,
John
