SimDash Fatal Error

[Nick05]

Hi Cristiano, I keep getting fatal errors, here is one of the logs:

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
   at eval_qb.eval_bb()
   at eval_dd.eval_l()
   at eval_dd.eval_o(Object A_0, EventArgs A_1)
   at System.Windows.Forms.Timer.OnTick(EventArgs e)
   at System.Windows.Forms.Timer.TimerNativeWindow.WndProc(Message& m)
   at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

I have tried to reinstall etc but no luck, and deleted all files and folders.

Hello.

The second error should be now fixed, if you re-download SimDash from the website.

I am investigating the first one.
do you get it every time? which simulator were you playing?

thanks
Cristiano

Hi,

The top two errors were from pCars and I just got this one from Assetto Corsa...... Oh btw, my gear display is not working in either ?

Index was outside the bounds of the array.

that looks like the error message you posted in your second post.

it should be fixed now but you need to download SimDash 3 from the website again

The gear indicator now works but is barely visable at all, i have the brightness turned up to 90% but it is very weak indeed.

Hello.
I have updated SimDash again and I think that the bug is fixed now.

you have to download it again.

thanks
Cristiano

Downloaded and installed latest simdash (updated 02/12/2013 ) But still get this error........

Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

   at System.Windows.Forms.NativeWindow.Callback(IntPtr hWnd, Int32 msg, IntPtr wparam, IntPtr lparam)

Gear display is barely visible, is this related ??

[Cristiano]

I have updated SimDash again.

sorry if this takes forever but I can't reproduce the problem so I have to guess what the problem is.

Regards

No apologies needed Cristiano, I very much appreciate your on going support

Good News !!

No fatal errors, Gear display is working and a little brighter but still very dim compared to what it used to be.

[Nick05]

P.S Is htere anything I can do my end to help ? ie: change connections or post my config even ??

[Cristiano]

you can send me your configuration file if you want.

what device are we talking about? Pro-Race? DLC-247?

[Nick05]

It is the DLC-247

[Cristiano]

I made a small change to the DLC-247, to support gear positions greater than 9.
Maybe that's the reason the gear is displayed dimmer now.

I think you could try to open the DLC-247 settings and make a small adjustment to the brightness of the display. then save the settings. that could fix it.

if it doesn't work, please export your settings (menu File->Export Settings...) and send them to me.

thank you
Cristiano
