Ok, so this is not a please help nor a problem...this is just something I am tinkering with a bit to see if I can get it to work. I am wanting to try and find a pirep system so I can make a va, and I came across this little tool...and now with steam edition coming out I thought I might as well try and get a little ahead of the curve and create a Steam Edition VA using this tool so I won't have to host a server for Pireps. Now I am trying to get this to work on my version...again this isn't exactly a problem...I have modified the DLL.XML to accept the dll that used fsrecorder, but sadley came across a little runtime error following it. I am pretty sure it is not a Dll.xml because I compared the FSrecorder function to my newly installed fsuipc, and then compared that to my boxed version Dll.xml , and everything seemed to be correct, although I did come across something that caught my eye. FSUIPC for fsx se and the regular fsuipc seem to be going to the exact same .DLL, so now I am not sure... Below I have left the contents of my DLL.XML for fsx-se(modified) as well as the boxed version where fsrecorder works fine. If this is a FSRecorder dll problem I might stop, because I am not even sure exactly how dlls work. I think they are a compilation of different files, but I have heard tinkering with Dlls can cause a lot of problems. Again this is not a problem with my fsx I can just wipe the code and get fsx-se to work fine, but I would like to see whether or not I can get this to work...

I too cannot use FS Recorder, according to the fs-recorder.net site - it is most likely not going to be supported for FSX Steam nor will there be any future updates, which is not cool because a lot of simmers use it.  I would think it shouldn't take too long for the creater to come up with a defenitive fix, but its a dead fish in the water... ahhhhhhh the times we had with FS Recorder!
