FSX Modules folder already exists.

Okay -- installed FSUIPC4 into "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\FSUIPC4.DLL"

Looking for the current user's Application Data path: 

... found as "C:\Users\Dougies\AppData\Roaming"

Now checking DLL.XML ...

... There is a previous DLL.XML, checking for FSUIPC4 section.

... FSUIPC4 section already exists but will be replaced.

     (for FSUIPC4, without Loader)

... FSUIPC4 section of DLL.XML written okay

Now checking for a SimConnect.XML file ...

... No SimConnect.XML file found. This is okay.

Looking in "C:\Users\Public\AppData\Roaming"

 ... No FSX.CFG there

"Modules\FSUIPC Documents" folder already exists.

Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.934

 

Okat, all that looks okay. So, two more files to check:

 

First, is there an FSUIPC4.LOG file in that Modules folder? If so then FSUIPC4 is being loaded -- please paste its contents here.

 

Second, the DLL.XML file is responsible for telling SimConnect which modules to load. Maybe it is corrupt, so please let me see that. You can find it here:

 

C:\Users\Dougies\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

 

Finally, take a look in the FSX.CFG file in the same folder. No need to post it here. If there are any entries referring to FSUIPC in the [Trusted] section, delete them.

there is no log file in the modules folder.

 

there is also no fsuipc entries in the trusted section

 

here is the DLL file

 

That looks fine.

 

So it is a puzzle. SimConnect is ignoring the entry in the DLL.XML file?  Do the other modules load -- eg the one before FSUIPC, "RAASPRO"?

 

Maybe we need a SimConnect log to see what it says. There's a thread in the FAQ subforum which tells you how to get one of those.

RAASPRO does load.

 

i made a "Simconnect.ini" file and saved it into the Flight SImulator X Files

 

I copy and pasted the text below into notepad and saved file but i do not no where i can find the actual log? i ran fsx after i made it but cant locate the log

 

PS, i am using windows 8 if that is relevant.

 

 

 

[SimConnect]

level=Verbose
console=No
file=path to FSX\Modules\SimConnect%01u.Log
file_max_index=9

Er ... the log would be in the FSX modules folder if you'd put the path to it where it clearly says "path to FSX\Modules". As it is that path is invalid so no log will be generated.

i did type "file=path to FSX\Modules\SimConnect%01u.Log"   

 

but the only files in the modules folder are FSUIPC Documents, FSUIPC Install, FSUIPC.DLL and FSUIPC.key

 

Oh dear. The path to the FSX modules folder is NOT "path to ..." YOU must fill that part in with the actual path to the FSX folder on your specific PC!!!! There has to be a Drive, for instance, like C:

 

A typical FS path is "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X", but it depends on your setup. On my system it is simply "E:\FSX"., so I would put:

 

file=E:\FSX\Modules\SimConnect%01u.Log

 

See? YOU have to fill in the path!!!!

i typed "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\SimConnect%01u.Log"

 

But there is still no log file.

 

Did you omit the "file=" part by any chance?

 

I think you'd better show me the SimConnect.INI file again, and also tell me where you put it!

 

I've never ever have anyone fail to get a SimConnect log before.

this is what i put in the file.

[simConnect]

level=Verbose

console=No

file= C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\SimConnect%01u.Log

file_max_index=9 

 

the file is located here C:\Users\Dougies\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files

Well, if you are sure this doesn't give you a simconnect log then something is really very very seriously wrong with your FS installation. this logging facility is not anything of mine, it is built into SimConnect (all versions). Sorry, but I'm all out of ideas. I can only suggest you reinstall everything and hope it then works. I'm absolutely amazed that you have the other add-ins loading -- it seems impossible given that even the basic Simconnect facilities aren't working.

 

One last question -- you did prepare the file using something like Notepad, didn't you, not Word or a word processor of any kind? It must be a normal text file, NOT a word processed file.
