Can't Get Spad Next To Work On X-Plane 11.50

Post by TallTanBarbie » 01 Oct 2020, 01:54

I've put together a new machine for VR use and I can't get Spad Next to work on X-Plane 11.5 SE.

I have FIPs, Radio, Muti, and Switch panels.

I'm just using the stock Spadnext X-Plane online snippets for each device.

None of them work. Not even the FIPs. Totally dead. Nothing Happens.

I'm not running remotely via a network. All of the gauges and panels are hooked up to the flight sim machine.

I did get them to work using a plugin from the X-Plane forum but I wanted to get them to work with Spadnext as I purchased the full license and a plethora of gauges from fipgauges.com. P3D is no problem but no luck on X-Plane.

I can't submit a ticket right now for some reason. Spadnext won't let me. Don't know why. Will try again tomorrow.

I was finally able to submit a ticket. Something was blocking access. I didn't get any error. It just woudn't connect.
Besides the sim program, I'm also running Steam VR, Active Sky, LittleNavMap, Envtex/Envshade/Envsound if in P3D, and vPilot or xPilot.
I've never noticed any conflicts with these before.

I finally got it to connect this evening to send a ticket. Still don't know why Spadnext won't connect to Xplane.

I finally fixed this by (a) changing the port number to 8000 and (b) changing the local connection from "true" to "false" in the sdm file.

Why does this work?

{
"LocalConnection": false,
"LogLevel": "Info",
"ServerHost": "127.0.0.1",
"ServerPort": 8000
}
