P3Dv5.3 Offset Error 0x3124 Flt Sim Version

[Scotfleiger]

The offset 0x3124 returns the wrong P3D version number for P3Dv5.3. With FSUIPC 6.1.7 it returns '52' not '53'.

Are you sure? Just took a look and it says 53 for me:
   114047 Monitor IPC:3124 (U8) = 53

   114047 Monitor IPC:3124 (U8) = 53

I still haven't updated to the latest 5.3 HF. I will do that today and recheck.
Could you check again and if you still see 52 please show me your FSUIPC6.log file.
The version in that offset should match the P3D version reported at the beginning (2nd line) of the log:
 

Prepar3D.exe version = 5.3.12.28072

With the P3Dv5.3 HF1 installed my system is logging version 5.2.22.27615 as my reading of 0x3124 was showing.

********* FSUIPC6, Version 6.1.7 (21st December 2021) by Pete & John Dowson *********
Prepar3D.exe version = 5.2.22.27615

I only did a reinstall of the client and scenery parts. I will check again when my current MSFS2020 update download is complete. That will be tomorrow!!

Then you must be running 5.2....I have just updated to 5.3HF1 and get this:

I really can't see how it is reporting the incorrect version - this is taken from the Prepar3D.exe file properties. What does your P3d Help -> About menu option report?

Is there an MSFS update? I'm still on 1.21.13.0 which I thought was the latest - just fired it up and no update available for me...

P3Dv5.3.15.28131 successfully reinstalled and offset correctly reporting version number. It appeared that somehow I had taken a step backwards when I installed the HF. Apologies for taking up your time.

No problem.
