[F4RADAR] Lightweight standalone radar application

Hi and thank you for your work.
Sadly I can’t get your software to work (W7/DX11, redistributables are installed), it crashes at launch with the following error:Any idea why that might be?
Thanks! -

Thanks!I cannot see the attachment, so could you try again? I don’t have w7 myself, so it’s a but difficult to test for me.

Edited, seems like there was a problem with the PNG…

Thanks, could be the issue you’re running 32bit W7 and some errors with the libs. I’ll look into it.

Nope, Win 7 x64 here

Another update, this one allows you to select (and see) the IVC frequencies. Just launch your IVC-client, connect to the server and you’re done. You don’t have to select ‘force local control’.
By the way, did you know you can move around the tables by clicking on the header of a table and dragging it? And thanks for your suggestions and bug reports! @seekles, W7 is still on the todo-list.
version 0.18 changes (05.12.2020)
- Added IVC support (currently only x64 version tested)
- Added allied contacts are always shown
- Fixed errors in mission type indications
- Fixed ‘bad alloc’ crash
-
A quick update with an important fix in spotting and thus showing aircraft on the scope and in the table. I had some previous reports on this issue, but couldn’t find a way to reproduce it. But specific conditions of another case helped me spotting the erratic behaviour. So keep those reports and feedback coming!
And whilst I have your attention, a short reminder how to have IVC working correctly for the GCI: uncheck ‘IVC enabled’ when setting up the MP session. Your IVC-client should run standalone not connected to BMS in order to be seen as an outsider. This was very well explained by Chihirobelmo in this post. Thanks again Chihirobelmo!
version 0.19 changes (06.12.2020)
- Fixed error in spotting
-
Another update to fix the program freezing for short periods. And by popular demand leading zeros are added to the angle of BE and BRAA indications.
Also note that to prevent IVC attenuation, you should use a different name in your IVC-client than the one you use in BMS.
version 0.20 changes (09.12.2020)
- Added leading zero(s) at the angle indication for BE and BRAA
- Fixed program freezing for short periods

Gladly agreeded.
And I’d add “And updated constantly, as well!”, if I dare to.
With best compliments, dear Tumbler, and best regards to all.

Hi Tumbler, thank you very much for this must-have and the work you’re still doing to improve it.
Will it be possible to see the aircraft or pkg Squawk/Iff ?
Merry Christmas in advance and HNY, hope this one will be better for everyone. -
F4RADAR now supports BMS 4.35.0. As there we’re some changed in the airbases and I didn’t have time to update those, this option is temporarily turned off.
Enjoy and let me know if you run unto bugs or have ideas for improvement. And yes, squawk codes are on my wishlist as well.
version 0.21 changes (23.12.2020)
- Updated for BMS 4.35.0
- Disabled airbases
-
Thanks a lot for this update too…
and Merry Christmas (to all your beloved ones too), most of all!
Keep always safe, with best regards.

What a quick support for 4.35!
Our squadron could move to 4.35 thanks to your work. -
Thank you for the update and your answer, fly safe!
-
Following feedback of disappearing flights I stumbled onto some other quirks as well. Furthermore I had another go at support Windows7, let’s hope I got it right this time!
As always I’m looking forward to your suggestions and feedback and thank you for all your kind words!
version 0.22 changes (29.12.2020)
- Fixed number of planes in table
- Fixed Windows7 support
-
Hi Tumbler,
I had another try as Win7 user, but I still get an error.
Windows 7 SP1,
Microsoft Visual C++ 2015-2019 Redistributable (x64) - 14.27.29016 (hope that is the same as you listed in your first post)The error is
Graphics Exception
Error Code 0x80004002
E_NOINTERFACE
No such interface supportedin file GraphicsDX.cpp line 215
Hope this helps you. If you need additional info just let me know.
Cheers
[EDIT: used F4Radar 0.22]
[EDIT: this with a NVIDIA 1070 TI unfortunately, don’t have driver version at hand atm.] -
Minor update with a small fix (thanks BibleClinger) and hopefully the long awaited Windows 7 support! Do let me know! please note that Windows 7 users most likely have to install Platform Update for Windows 7 to get it working.
version 0.23 changes (01.01.2021)
- Fixed IVC table click still active with table not visible
- Fixed Windows7 support, for real now
-
Hi Tumbler,
thanks for your effort. Much appreciated! So, regarding the welcome win 7 feedback ;). version 0.23 is exiting without error report. I checked the Platform Update (x64 only!), says it is already installed. DxDiag says DX11 is present (BMS runs btw.)
Anything else I can check? Can you provide a debug version that spits out some sort of log file? Only asking, no obligation or expectation.Cheers
