Hi TOKOLOSH, I had a very similar problem, I do not know if the same problem, you can see the screenshot of my problem on page 41 of this thread.
Unfortunately, I could not find a solution and specifies timely because my computer does not work (??).
I have two computers, one of these worked ffcal (V20), on the other ffcal(V20) not work...
FFcal could only work after reinstalling the operating system (I have Windows XP), I hope you do not have to reach the same, but for me it was the only solution I found ...
Make sure you have the latest version of FFcal
Lucky, Ariel

Sir DoHung, if you mean ffcal, the news is in minutes since/until (relative to news), on time. FFcal, does not announce the news, in schedule date format.
If you need get news with GMT TIME, in this thread, refer on the following website www.FXnewsalert.com, this program allow you change timezone... regards

Hi TOKOLOSH, at the top of your mt4, press the button MetaEditor, then, after opening the program (metaeditor), go to File, Open, choose the file FFcal, and once opened FFCAL, read in the upper side, the version, as in the screenshot ( Revision: 20)...

i have the same issue . almost once a day it seams. -

I'm thinking about recoding the time variable therefore it updates the xml once a day instead of this
Quote
"" if (NeedToGetFile || GlobalVariableCheck("LastUpdateTime") == false ||
(TimeCurrent() - GlobalVariableGet("LastUpdateTime")) > 14400)""

wouldn't it make more sense to call for the server file at US close when we're not trading? and FF is normally quite?

HI,

I love this indicator, I cant trade without it!

But all of a sudden it has stopped working on my pc platform but yet conti nues to run on my VPS platform?

Have tried everything to get it working again on my pc but no luck.

The issue is that it is not displaying anything on my charts. But the indicator does appear in my indicator list.

Does anyone have any ideas? Please help.

Thanks
Clintt

Hi Clintt, I had a similar problem, I have Windows XP, I could only fix it by reinstalling the operating system, from there I have a pc for mt4, and one for use with all programs, install and uninstall programs that sometimes alter things then you can not know Going Back. You try to return to the penultimate point of restoring the operating system?

The FFCAL indicator that I have on all my charts has stopped working. Was working fine until a few weeks ago. Does anyone know what happened?
Also FFCalH doesn't work either.

Thanks

Sanami,

I think the older ffcal versions stopped because FF had changed its code July 18-2012.
Does your mod work fine taking care of those issues?
I have been using hanover (David Louisson) Recent News (including PlotNews) on which he has stopped development. His News Setup uses some ffcal version but that seems to not work very well any more His MT4 script Download News stopped working when hanover announced he is no longer working on it.

Athar.

Just to clear up any possible confusion.........

I'm afraid you're largely misinformed. It's true that the latest version (v3.21) of the indicator that I developed no longer works correctly on some Win7 computers. But that has nothing to do with the FF calendar format change.

However, this thread offers and discusses a completely different product, even though it happens to also be named FFcal. As I pointed out in the footnote here, the FFcal.mq4 (originally developed by Derk Wehler) gets its news from http://www.forexfactory.com/ff_calendar_thisweek.xml, which is unlikely to be affected by any FF calendar format change.

(Whereas the FFcal.exe that I developed gets its news directly from http://www.forexfactory.com/calendar.php, whose format changes whenever the FF programmers decide to give it a facelift. FFcal.exe v3.21 includes a modification that reads the new format, but it causes some Win7 computers to crash. Hence I've removed it from the Platform Tech forum).
