Chain Posted May 6, 2015 Posted May 6, 2015 Hi guys! I installed windows 8.1 and latest java version. Now I'm getting this error with the Simmeter gauges (standby altimeter and airspeed indicator). The gauge control software crashes on startup. It worked well with windows 7. I tried to use compatibility mode but no luck. Is this error familiar to anyone who knows something about Java or Simmeters? I contacted Simmeters support about a month a go but I have not received any help from them yet.

Not so cool - I know they have been busy behind the scenes, I haven't tried it myself (still building with the original version), but have you checked out the new code? https://simmeters.com/gitlist/pub/Inerthya/tree/master/bin/ Cheers Peter
Chain Posted May 6, 2015 Author Posted May 6, 2015 I thought this software was only for the new CAN bus instruments. I'll have to check it out. Thanks for the link.

Chain Posted May 7, 2015 Author Posted May 7, 2015 I did a quick test and all I got was something like "Cannot detect CAN bus devices" :( I also tried to install older version of Java JRE. Didn't help...

bnepethomas Posted May 7, 2015 Posted May 7, 2015 ahh thats a real bummer, do you have a older PC you can you the gauges off? One good thing about the Simmeters stack is it is network friendly.
