Is BSVP actually displaying the correct values on the gauges? Or are you getting 2 second stutters when the gauges are not working?

If the connection between Black Shark and BSVP is not working the current Export script does not set a timeout on the socket, which would cause the behaviors you've seen. If the gauges are updating properly then I'm not sure why that would be happening.

BSVP worked on my secondary computer and it only took 4 attempts. Thanks for the advice. Now for my next question. I have an old computer that runs Win98se for older games. Would BSVP run on this computer? It uses an old 266 speed chip and Directx from long ago. thanks.

GadRoc,

OK, I simply turned off Kaspersky internet security on primary PC, et voila! BSVP is running smoothly on secondary computer and no more hangs in BS. Video on the way.

I'm not sure tbh m8 - I know the system requirements are pretty low as Mnemonic has run BSVP fine on a netbook, but I suspect a 266 might struggle. It would also depend on what graphics card your old machine has. The best way to find out would be to just give it a go.
Cheers,

"Export.lua script is always local , but if EnableExportScript = false
you cannot access to cheat posible functions : LoGetWorldObjects and LoGetObjectByID
this functions always will return nil..."

sorry if this has been covered already. The above statement from the config.lua, in a nutshell, says export.lua will always work to the local machine, regardless of "EnableExportScript = false" line. I copied this line from my config.lua, so you can see BSVP does indeed work and BSVP works in MP with my setup this way.

Making the EnableExportScript=true only allows people to 'cheat' in a MP game. So, perhaps export.lua (for cockpit building) will not be as big as a factor to MP as people were thinking in the past(?)

MP servers can leave the line set to false and that should take care of that.

love to see more of your pit, video on the way you say?

Hi all. I have tried BSVP a few times but find is almost impossable to fly with it running. I am suffering from huge amounts of lag and my BS wil go from 60Fps to just under 10 - making the game unplayable.

Now i know it can be run on a second PC but really i dont want to go down that path. I was hoping that there may be some way to improove performance. I have tried turning off my firewall, and AV but still no joy.

I really love BSVP but i rear i (and many others) will never be able to use it without getting another computer running.

I had the same problem. untill I added a second a vid card 8500GT to run BSVP. It is working well but I am still gitting a FPS hit of 5-8 FPS. But oy does it look good. Going to work on gitting my rudder pedals to work right with Win 7 so I can start using that system.

I found a way to get the program to run . I had to move the screan I am puting BSVP on had to be on my 8800GT as the 8500GT was not suporting openGL and causing crashes. I also tryed taking off the over clock on the CPU and RAM and now it is running fine. I am going thrue upping the speed of my CPU to find the stable point of theas programs runnint together.
I will be starting all over agin when I get my new (to me) 8800GT to take the place of the 8500gt hoping that BSVP will run on the second 8800gt. ten I will see how far up I can go with the OC of the CPU. 3.6GH is my max for stabilty right now. ( I realt need beter ram)

Interesting find, can someone on the team comment on this?
