Burkhard Posted August 2, 2010 Report Share Posted August 2, 2010 The modules loaded by FSX have to be added to the file dll.xml in your user profile, under "%appdata%\microsoft\FSX". The FSUIPC install normally does this. So check there if you find an entry, if not, then you know at least why, and somebody else can help, normally Peter also isn't far away from here.

peterhayes Posted August 4, 2010 Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Gary You may need a little more info, FSUIPC X when it installs into FSX it installs a FSUIPC4.dll in the main Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules folder You will also find there: FSUIPC4.ini, FSUIPC4.key, FSUIPC4.log, FSUIPC4 Install.log plus FSUIPC documents. If the FSUIPC4.dll is present and it has installed correctly then it should show as an addon in the FSX menus. As Burkhard says the dll.xml file in the System drive C:\Yourusername\Appdata\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\dll.xml It should have a fairly recent date. It should have an entry similar to: - FSUIPC4 False Modules\FSUIPC4.dll The dll.xml will be in a different directory and folder to the FSUIPC4.dll As Far as I understand it neither the dll.xml and FSUIPC4.dll have anything to do with DIRECTX Good luck :D PeterH Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garry Read Posted August 4, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2010 Thank you for your reply .The FSUIPC 4 in the module file appears to be okay,copied FSUIPC4.dll to the add on, but still not working.The programming for dll.xml is there, my IBM 2.1gb is where I start, adjusting the explorer would be the wrong thing to do.

Regards GarryR FTG CX268. Garry It should work OK but it might be worthwhile posting on Pete Dowson's (the developer of FSUIPC4) forum. viewforum.php?f=54 You may have a "simconnect" issue.

peterhayes Posted August 5, 2010 Report Share Posted August 5, 2010 Garry One thing that I forgot is that you may have an overwritten and now corrupt dll.xml file due to installed software. Pete Dowson can help you with that. Regards Peter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pete Dowson Posted August 6, 2010 Report Share Posted August 6, 2010 Flight sim enthusiast since Feb 97, register FSUIPC 4, but will not go to the add on the task bar, running FSX I need more information in order to help you. Please paste your FSUIPC Install log, and, if there is one, your FSUIPC4 log files. You'll find them in the FSX Modules folder.
