Matt Davis Posted December 27, 2019 Report Posted December 27, 2019 I'm a newbie trying to get FSX-SE box edition that I recently purchased off ebay to work with my Logitech Multipanel that I recently got for X-mas. It didn't work so I got SPAD and FSUIPC4 and ever since then FSX-SE crashes shortly after entering free flight. I see a note here indicating I need to use a 4.974c if I'm using the beta version of FSX-SE but I have no idea if that's the case. I have also posted a similar thread in the FSX forum, here but the first fix recommended there of changing the last digit of a line to a 1 did not work in the FSX.cfg file, so I posted it here, as the problem seems to be stemming from FSUIPC4. I have FSX, FS9, and FSX-SE folders on my computer. My son is having fun playing Combat Flight Simulator 3 Battle for Europe, which thankfully still works. I'm not sure, frankly what folder that is in. Here is a txt file I found in the modules folder for FSUIPC4 called FSUIPC4_prev ********* FSUIPC4, Version 4.974 (24th February 2018) by Pete Dowson ********* Windows 10 Home 64 Bit reported as Build 17134, Release ID: 1803 (OS 10.0) fsx.exe version = 10.0.63003.0 Reading options from "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\Modules\FSUIPC4.ini" Running inside FSX Steam Edition on Windows 10 Module base=62260000 User Name="Matt Davis" User Addr="mdavisak@gmail.com" FSUIPC4 not user registered WIDEFS7 not user registered, or expired 16 System time = 27/12/2019 10:04:56 16 FLT path = "C:\Users\Teacher\Documents\Flight Simulator X - Steam Edition Files\" 31 ------ Module Version Check ------ 31 acontain.dll: 10.0.63003.0 31 api.dll: 10.0.63003.0 47 controls.dll: 10.0.63003.0 47 fs-traffic.dll: 10.0.63003.0 47 G3D.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 language.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 sim1.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 visualfx.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 weather.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 window.dll: 10.0.63003.0 63 ---------------------------------- 141 NOTE: SimConnect Steam is supported, but it isn't installed. 235 Trying to connect to SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 ... 297 FS path = "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\" 1016 LogOptions=00000000 00000001 1016 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1016 ------ Setting the hooks and direct calls into the simulator ------ 1016 --- CONTROLS timer memory location obtained ok 1016 ### Failed to obtain SIM1 Frictions access: no frictions facilities available! 1016 Reason 6: SIM1 base=63A60000 1016 FrictionAddr=63A67700 contains 00726564 1016 BrakingAddr=63A67570 contains 00646565 1016 Hook Error: no DOS signature for SIM1.dll 1031 Hook Error: can't find .37 in VISUALFX.dll 1031 --- FS Controls Table located ok 1031 WARNING: Failed to install Mouse Macro hooks! 1031 --- Wind smoothing fix is not installed 1031 --- SimConnect intercept for texts and menus option is off 1031 --- Link check value = 1FEFF (should be 1FFFF) 1031 ------------------------------------------------------------------- 1031 SimConnect_Open succeeded: waiting to check version okay 1031 Trying to use SimConnect Acc/SP2 Oct07 1031 Opened separate AI Traffic client okay 8016 Running in "Microsoft Flight Simulator X", Version: 10.0.63003.0 (SimConnect: 10.0.63003.0) 8016 Initialising SimConnect data requests now 8016 FSUIPC Menu entry added 8172 c:\users\teacher\documents\flight simulator x - steam edition files\free flight in seattle.FLT 8172 C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\B737_800\Boeing737-800.air 15344 Weather Mode now = Theme 52688 C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SimObjects\Airplanes\C172\Cessna172SP.air 98078 User Aircraft ID 1 supplied, now being used 98078 Aircraft loaded: running normally now ... 161828 System time = 27/12/2019 10:07:38, Simulator time = 10:05:11 (18:05Z) 167531 Starting everything now ...

Matt Davis Posted December 27, 2019 Author Report Posted December 27, 2019 10 minutes ago, Matt Davis said: fsx.exe version = 10.0.63003.0 I see the version number is very similar to the beta number that is quoted in a sticky in this forum. I could have sworn that this is the same thing I checked when I was in windows finder earlier and the version number was entirely different. I'm thinking I need to get the updated version 4.974c? I'd be glad to register and purchase FSUIPC4 if I can get it to work, but frankly I'm very confused now. All I wanted to do was get these logitech panels to work as advertised and really have no desire to change the way they operate or function at this point. I have no idea at all what widefs7 is or why I'm thinking of getting it. Also, it's been along time since I've used a windows pc, as I'm mostly a mac user now, so seeing all these acronyms is very new to me. I'd like to know more about the naming conventions of these files if I'm going to be using them much more. I am shocked at how much work has to be done to get MSFX to work and am hoping that FSUIPC4 makes things simpler in the future. Matt
Matt Davis Posted December 27, 2019 Author Report Posted December 27, 2019 I got FSUIPC4 to work and FSX-SE doesn't crash! Now I just need to get these panels working: Logitech Multipanel, switchpanel, and comm panel I'm assuming I can download a profile somewhere that is already configured. Sorry to post so much information. My trouble came in that I have a few versions of FSX running and it took me a while to figure out which one STEAM was using as I did not know STEAM was the name of the folder in question. Here's the path to where I put the most recent DLL C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\Modules SO, now I will look for a place to find these profiles that I'm sure someone has for the logitech panels. Matt
John Dowson Posted December 30, 2019 Report Posted December 30, 2019 Sorry for the late response, but glad FSUIPC is now working for you. If you are using SPAD.next, there are plenty of freely available profiles for various aircraft, available from within SPAD.next itself. Regards, John
