SimConnect.xml and LAGs

[Guest ayk]

Hi,Just configured FSX and Simconnect.xml to start the Sim as a server, but if I use the simconnect.xml file, ill get lags(500 - 1000 ms) in FSX every 10-15 seconds. Have configured another PC as server... same problem.My XML:<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>SimConnectSimConnect.xmlFalseFalseIPv4local

10.9.50.158

Don't do that unless you have local application explicitly told to use those via a SimConnect.cfg file.I suspect you really intended to have a "global" section (change local to global) -- I think Microsoft means "remote" by this word, as it does not appear to encompass the normal automatic local connection.Either way you still need a normal default local section, so your final XML file should probably be:><?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>>>> SimConnect> SimConnect.xml> False> > False> IPv4> global>

10.9.50.158

However, unfortunately at present it's the other way around. If you have an XML file you need to explicitly enable local connections.RegardsPete
