Hi everyone, I've created a website for downloads to offload my NAS. I want to continue though to encourage discussion, hints & tips, support and enhancement requests etc to be posted through the Comfort Community; it's a great source of help and encouragement for us all in our journey through life with our Comfort systems! See https://www.futurehomesoftware.com I've tested with Internet Explorer, Mozilla Firefox, Google Chrome & Opera. Cytech have also posted a link here too. Many thanks Chiu. http://www.cytech.biz/comfortclient.html?category_id=116 You can buy ComfortClient securely via PayPal and it'll automatically email you your license key on checkout at: https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_s-xclick&hosted_button_id=GL52NXNXPPE68 Regards Julian Attachment: FHS.jpg (Downloaded 346 times) |

Hi juwi, I have download it and it come with a sample which is great. But can it download the program into comfort using other UCM/Ethernal? What i mean can i use UCM/USB to test the software? Regards, Nizam |

Hi Ident I've tried in the UK this morning and all seems fine. Maybe there was Internet outage last night or something as the server is up. All I can suggest is to try again. Regards Julian |

Hi Nizam.vd Thank you for downloading. It's a .NET applications and runs on your PC. Unfortunately it is only designed for Ethernet connections (UCM/Eth) right now so you cannot connect to Comfort via UCM/USB. Maybe I'll add that feature in future.

Hi Nizam.vd Just to let you know I'm working on both USB and Serial connections for ComfortClient for the next release. If you are interested in testing a beta for USB then let me know. Julian |

Hi Julian I am very interested in trying out this software, but the links to your website are not working. Is there anywhere else I can download the software? Thanks |

Hi Jullian, Is your site down? I have been trying to acces it, but I just get a "Can't reach this page"? Thanks, Clinton. |

Hi Clinton, I'm not sure when the server switched itself off but when I tried to switch it back on this morning a big bang and burning smell. I shouldn't complain as it's been running 24x7 for about 5 years now but I've just ordered a replacement power supply which hopefully will resolve it next week. Regards Ju In the meantime if you want something I can send you direct if you want. I'm in the middle of some big changes for the next release which will be coined v6 and include many of these; multi-client access, client-server architecture, multiple clients (futures; i.e. mobile, web, MAC potential), making server-side code .NET 2 Standard compliant (so potential to run server code backend which is comms, business logic and floorplan factory rendering on other platforms as well ie Unix/OSX ). That's the roadmap I'm working too anyway! Some of this is waiting on Microsoft .NETCore/Standard releases later this year. |

Thanks Julian, And wow! It looks like you are doing some cool work. I wish I had more time to work on my home automation. Cheers, Clinton. |

Does anyone know what has happened to this software package and/or the developer, Julian? I bought a copy of the package a few years back, but now want to transfer it to a new PC. I've tried sending emails to two addresses I had for Julian from conversations when I purchased, but no replies. The website (https://www.futurehomesoftware.com) is also down. It resolves if you 'ping' it, but you cannot get a response via a browser (any browser!) The licence authentication process fails, too, and if you try an 'offline' authentication, just like the home page, there is no response. Is it still available? Being developed? Or dead in the water? And if dead, how does one authenticate a licence? Thanks for any advice! |

Still no comment on this? Is ANYONE aware of what the status of this app and the developer is? If I try to install the app, I cannot 'authenticate' the licence and so I'm given a 30 day 'evaluation' . Attached is a screenshot of what I see. No website; no authentication server and no reply to emails. Anyone? Attachment: ComfortClient_NoAuthentication.png (Downloaded 21 times) |

Hi I’m still around though not actively developing CC right now. My server has been off so I’ll put it back online at the weekend. J |

Thanks, Julian, and good to know you are still around!! In these uncertain times (and especially in the UK), one tends to fear the worst....... Looking forward to seeing an active site. |

Corona virus hasn't got me yet? That said I'm not developing ComfortClient at the moment either as there wasn't much take-up compared to the money I was having to outlay to develop it so there comes a time to get your evenings and weekend back! I noticed my Webserver has been offline on the Internet for a while because ZoneEdit DDNS seems to have screwed up for some reason. I think it is up now though, well it is from my testing, so teh license server should be cool again! If anyone wants a free license then just PM me and I'll sort something out for you. At some stage I'll do a build and remove the licensing requirement. TBH I was using this to see how many people were using as soul destroying sometimes to be developing for a completely hidden audience of 3 men, 2 dogs and a hamster!

This Hamster's wheel has been turning perfectly since day #1 and still goes strong and in daily use. I just hope Microsoft doesn't do something in the future to mess CC up. Ingo |

Yeah we solved some good challenges together Ingo and was happy times. I am tempted to dabble in Visual Studio again but just remember how much time it took up last time. J |
