Chucky55 Posted October 26, 2020 Report Posted October 26, 2020 Need some help please... Trying to use fsx to help with my instrument training (commercial pilot flying ag aviation) and wanting to use fsuipc for controller set up and maybe add ons...currently on older edition (2006) of fsx. Have fsx gold edition purchased and should be arriving soon. Can't utilize steam as I live in rural area and on satellite internet, which has limited bandwidth?? (I am not super computer savy... so hope bandwidth is correct term... have really slow download speeds and no options available to increase). Using Saitek yoke and throttle, maybe add rudder pedals later...Downloaded "Instant Approach" add on to work on approaches, and readme says it needs fsuipc to run. So downloaded fsuipc7, followed installation instructions, and I think it installed. BUT...can't find add on menu in FSX, and when I started fsx, I did not get the boxes recognizing fsuipc as I saw in a youtube video on installation. I have not yet purchased a key, but plan to once I get the Gold edition installed and get the basic installation of fsuipc figured out. I have tried searches, and have read a little about modules, and a dll file, but am not computer savy enough to figure it out. I used explorer and couldn't find a module folder, and no idea about the dll file thing. Here is a copy of the text file for the install...

John Dowson Posted October 26, 2020 Report Posted October 26, 2020 Hi Charles, FSUIPC7 is for MSFS, the latest FS from Microsoft, not for FSX. For FSX, you need FSUIPC4. See the downloads section, or over on www.fsuipc.com. Note that I think you need to have at least applied the service packs to your FSX otherwise the installer may bail. John
Chucky55 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Posted October 26, 2020 Oh wow! Thanks for the quick reply! Ok, I just uninstalled 7 and downloaded and installed 4. Haven't tried it yet... What is the service pack you are talking about? I think I read a little on it and Gold edition has it already? So do I need to wait until I install my Gold edition before trying fsuipc? Charles
Chucky55 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Posted October 26, 2020 Well, I messed something up...now fsx tries to load, but after a flash screen won't continue...now what? Charles
John Dowson Posted October 26, 2020 Report Posted October 26, 2020 Can you check the main support forum to see if a similar issue has been reported there. If not, please raise a new post there, in the main forum (this is a sub-forum for FSUIPC7 only), with an appropriate title and both you installation log and fsuipc4.log file, if there is one.
Chucky55 Posted October 26, 2020 Author Report Posted October 26, 2020 Ok...will do that. Thought I was in the main forum area? Still learning my way around forums...
