P3D won't display if 5.122 installed

[rightseat]

Title says most of it:

With 5.122 installed, P3d will attempt to start, but then will not show up (even though it is up and running when you look in the task manager).

When I uninstall FSUIPC, the problem instantly goes away.

I know Pete wrote a great program, so there's something unique to my setup, I'm sure, that's caused this.

What I'd like to know is how to troubleshoot this so that I can use FSUIPC eventually.

Does anyone have any ideas for how I can begin?

Thanks.   :-)

Sorry, I forgot to upload the Dll.xml. I do NOT have an FSUIPC log, so it must not have loaded.

Hi,

if no FSUIPC5.log file was created then please send the Install log file as it would give as well some usefull information.

Yes, sir. :-)

FSUIPC5 Install.log

A couple of things pop out of the install log:

Installer for FSUIPC5.DLL version 5.122
...
Checking version of the Prepar3D v4 EXE:
... Version 4.0.23.21468  (Need at least 4.0.20.21316)

FSUIPC v5.122 needs P3D v4.1 (though the message above is misleading!)

and

Registration for FSUIPC5 was cancelled or failed! (result code 40)

Not sure if this is relevant though...

Hi,

as the log shows you don't use P3Dv4.1 (or later), P3Dv4.0 is not compatible with FSUIPC5.122. Please intsall first P3Dv4.1 actual version.

I'm sorry, but I downloaded and installed version 4.1 this weekend. I don't understand how it wouldn't be 4.1.... I'll check on that. Thanks.

Thomas:

Yup. Looks like something didn't go quite right when updating to 4.1. I just repaired the client, and installed FSUIPC. It worked!

Thank you very much for your help! I don't think I would have figured that one out. otherwise!
