Frame rate Java error

Anyone using Frame Rate Limiter come across this error? The system seems to work but I'd like to be rid of the message.

I've seen that when I run AICarriers2 and FSX crashes.
On restart of FSX I get that message.

It appears to be caused by the java application already running
in tha case I just mentioned above.

Are you getting it consistantly or in a 'fsx chrash, then restart' situation?

If it's the 'crash' condition, just kill the java app before
trying to start again.

EDIT: looking more closely at that, it appears that perhaps the FPS_Limiter application
and AICarriers do not 'play nice' with one another.

I assume you are enabling AICarriers in the normal fashion ( EXE.XML ) and
also running the FPS_Limiter BAT file.

I've not tried that on my system since I intsalled the FPS_Limiter. I only
'enable' AICarriers when I want to do carrier opps...I have 2 different
EXE.XML files I use...one loads AICarriers, the other does not.

Thanks for the reply Paul.
I get it every time I start the sim. I can still run FsX and Frame rate limiter but I don't have a clue why I get the message. I haven't installed AI carriers and some of the other apps mentioned so this is even more weird.
 
Roger, I used to get the same thing with AI Carriers, I had to uninstall JAVA and then re-install it. That seemed to cure my problem

Bill
 
Thanks Bill. I'll maybe try that later.

(edit) Totally uninstalled all Java installs and then reinstalled but I still get the error.
 
Damn it's like a virus. I've deleted the .bat and the whole Fs Limiter folder and run my registry cleaner twice then rebooted Vista and the bloody error message is still there when I load FsX!

Stupid of me to run some application I didn't understand. I guess I'll have to do without Java and uninstall the whole lot.

What does your EXE.XML look like?

EDIT: ARGGGH....this $*&&$ borad software seems to
not want to display XML code with the various tags no matter
how I try to 'wrap' that text....CODE or PHP wraps just
don't seem to work even though the 'preview' shows the
XML ltext intact but as soon as I save the post the
XML tags are removed making the inclusion of the file
contents pretty much useless :(
<simbase.document type="Launch" version="1,0"> </simbase.document>
So, just rename your EXE.XML file and try to run FSX.

PHP:
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
    <Descr>Launch</Descr>
    <Filename>EXE.XML</Filename>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
    <Launch.Addon><Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
    <Name>AICarriers</Name>
    <Path>K:\FSX Tools\AI carriers\aicarriers.exe</Path>
    <CommandLine>-nogui</CommandLine>
    </Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>
The above is mine with the AICarriers path and the various
lines that enable it.

See if you have a similar EXE.XML in the same location
as your fsx.cfg file.

The reference to "aicarriers" in the error message seems to
indicate your FSX installation is thinking it's installed.

If you have an EXE.XML file, perhaps try renaming it
and see if the error message goes away.

Paul
 
Now THIS is just plain strange....after that last edit of the
post above the XML file contents suddenly appeared
correct in PHP wrappers....I tried those twice before
with negative results.

Paul
 
Looks the same as yours except I have "auto thumbnail" in there too.

Weird.

Thanks for the help
 
Java is usually a target when you get a deep embedded virus. I think its used as the engine for dispersement of files throughout your system and sending messages to its lair.

But in this case, I doubt that has anything to do with it. But if Java is acting up, that 'could' be the case, wherein you just redownload Java again.

:d

EDIT: Doesnt Java have its own cache? I think you can delete the Cache contents and do a Java repair. I havent done that in a couple of years...

Bill
 
I see. So I need to edit my EXE.XML. Bill I'll look for that cache.

Thanks all.

Roger.

Let's see if I can get my XML.EXE with aicarriers DISABLED
to post properly here today: :)

PHP:
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
    <Descr>Launch</Descr>
    <Filename>EXE.XML</Filename>
    <Disabled>True</Disabled>
    <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
    <Launch.Addon><Disabled>True</Disabled>
    <ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
    <Name>AICarriers</Name>
    <Path>K:\FSX Tools\AI carriers\aicarriers.exe</Path>
    <CommandLine>-nogui</CommandLine>
    </Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>

Just disable the aicarriers loading as indicated above or,
simply remove the lines from the "Launch.Addon" to the
"/Launchaddon" dealing with the aicarriers.

Since you have the autothumbnail program included in
yours, just be sure not to remove the section dealing
with that addon.
