Hi, does anyone have or know how i can get the pure lates FSUIPC file (i mean not an install EXE.) i dont like install EXEs because i'd rather do it by hand. if anyone can get me the file on its own that would be great. And while i'm here do i have to register to get FSUIPC 3.98? i don't want to register for anything i just want my Gliders to work, because i get a message saying "FSUIPC not linked", admitedly i did delete it but that was only so i could get into flight sim without being bombarded with error messages and then FS9 closed completely! so if anyone had the pure file, thanks and if anyone knows how to get my sliders to work, thanks even more!

The reason I changed to using an installer was to get over folder protections when FS is installed in its default "Program Files" place. The installer also checks that the GlobalSign signature will be accepted and runs a program to update that in Windows if it isn't already available. These are steps which are not easy for most users. The installer also creates a subfolder for the documentation, and installs that and other goodies for you information and pleasure.

Not that it's relevant to you, but for FSX the installer is also necessary to get FSUIPC running in the first place, as it needs to edit system files installed by FSX to tell it to load the module, and for both FS9 and FSX using an installer automatically provides privileges sufficient for FSUIPC registration.

And while i'm here do i have to register to get FSUIPC 3.98?

No, only to use its user facilities.

I would strongly advise against just copying in any old FSUIPC.DLL without first running the Installer. If you do this please do NOT come back here for help with any problems you create!
