I had tried installing EZDOK for P3D v2...but this may have messed up my FSX EZDOK settings.

 

When I start FSX, EZDOK is not running.. I checked the exe.xml and the location where its to start ezdok is right and the files are all there 

 

<Launch.Addon>

<Name>EZdok camera addon</Name>

<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\EZCA\EZCA.exe</Path>

</Launch.Addon>

 

 

Also when I start EZdok camera addon tool and clock on Configure FSX, I get a pop up saying "The ROOT section in EXE.XML file not found. EZCA will not start automatically.

 

Do I have to reinstall EZDOK for fsx? and if so would it over write all my settings?

 

 

 

Here's what it should look like, Manny:

 

?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">

    <Descr>Launch</Descr>

            <Filename>exe.xml</Filename>

            <Disabled>False</Disabled>

            <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>

    <Descr>Launch</Descr>

            <Launch.Addon><Name>EZdok camera addon</Name>

            <Disabled>False</Disabled>

            <Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\EZCA\EZCA.exe</Path>

     </Launch.Addon>

</SimBase.Document>

 

Hope this helps ya..

Ugh, we really need to get a proper installer for P3D. This is really holding me back. I'm willing to pay for this, whatever it takes!!!

Hope this helps ya..

 

Thanks Paul.. I had a backed up XML which I simply copied over and my issue went away.. but your post  helps me understand what happened.,

 

 

Ugh, we really need to get a proper installer for P3D.

 

I have messed upmy P3Dv2 to such an extent I may have to resinstall it.

 

I installed and then brought over almost all the addon scneries and aircrafts and try to make them work in P3D...and I copied over all the other files like autogen directory and so on....its now a big mess. LOL

 

I am back to flying my FSX Dx10

Unless a proper alternative or ezdok p3d installer comes soon, I may seriously pass on P3D unfortunately. I am over manually configuring view position in each aircraft.cfg. Ezdok has spoiled me.

Thank you SO much! Solved my main FSX issue over the last year haha!

Good! Check out "XML Notepad" too, it's a nice little tool for things like this!

 

All the Best,

I'm getting the same error too when running EZCA config.

 

Now when I start P3D after loading my plane it crashes.

 

This is what my prepar3d.cfg file looks like. I never had p3d crash before, not sure what's going on now. This happened right after I ran the EZCA Config. I was told after adding new planes, to run that. Sigh.
