Correct installation of SimConnect (P3Dv3.x)
Posted: Tue May 10, 2016 7:44 pm
To have SimConnect working correctly in P3Dv3.x the following versions must be installed, regardless of the one that will be used at any time (all versions are available in the redist folder in the P3D root folder - i.e. the location in your HDD where you installed it):
Remember, there are addons that use SimConnect to communicate with the simulator, therefore you have to install it regardless of whether you will use a client/server configuration (although if you do, the above applies to both the client and the server machines).
For the configuration of SimConnect check this article.
- ..\P3D\redist\Interface\FSX-RTM\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi
- ..\P3D\redist\Interface\FSX-SP1\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi
- ..\P3D\redist\Interface\FSX-SP2-XPACK\retail\lib\SimConnect.msi
