  1. Hi John and Pete,

        first of all, let me thank you guys for all your hard work.

    It is appreciated as i've been using your software for a long time now. yes the paid version.

    and i plan on using it for a long time to come.

    my only issue is below...

     

    im a little confused by all this talk about simconnect causing the fps drops.

    My simconnect isn't causing any drops at all, i can connect acars to my sim using simconnect and do VA flights no issue.

    as soon as i try to connect it using fsuipc7 (latest Version) my frames drop from 60-100 down to 10-20

     

    and if fsuipc doesnt need to use simconnect now, why am i still getting fps drops?

    from where i sit, simconnect isn't an issue.

  2. Hi Pete/John,

        I've read and understood the instructions you provided but they seem to be missing the most important thing, the location within the MSFS SDK folder of simconnect.dll.
    I have installed MSFS SDK and scanned the SDK complete folders, the MSFS2020 folders and even my appdata folders and not found it in any of these folders.

    simconnect.dll doesn't come with MSFS SDK.

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    ignore eveverything above, I just found it and can't delete this post.

    It is located in 

    ..\MSFS SDK\SimConnect SDK\lib

    Thank you for moving my post, I forgot I was looking in FAQ.

    Yes I’m running as admin.

    there was no log that I could find as it was failing without finishing.

    i looked further into the forums and noticed you telling someone else to opt out of any betas.

    i checked my FSX and noticed I was opted in.

    i think you know what happened after that.

    its sorted now. Thank you very much for your help and the help of everyone else that has posted here.

    it all helps.

    i even learned a few new things while I was here.

    cheers to all.
