Hi guy and apologies if this has been asked but this is my first venture into simconnect

I have had a look at frooglesims video on you tube and I think I'm sort of setup in the fact that I have 3 different simconnect client versions installed on my system and have everything running at the same state which is fsx acceleration.

I his video before I can use my laptop to connect to my main fsx folder on my main pc he mentions 2 files the simconnect.ini files and simconnect.cfg file I have checked both of the locations where these files reside but they are not there do I have to create them manually or is there something that I have forgotten to do or not done yet

many thanks

what program are you trying to connect to FSX with simconnect?

You have to create them manually. You can use notepad to create these files. Actually you MUST use ONLY notepad as any other text editor such as wordpad or Word are not compatible with creating these files. Also it is three files that you need. SimConnect.msi ; SimConnect.ini ; SimConnect.cfg., and must be placed in certain folders. Two go in the FSX computer, and the third goes into the client computer.
