Hi everyone i am having some trouble in connecting Pro ATC x and active sky next from my notebook to my main fsx rig. I have gone through froogle sims video and the tutorial in the pro atc manual but it doesn't seem to want to work. All the shares are done, sdks and sdks service packs installed and the three simconnect files are installed. Also the ip address of my main fsx pc is in the proper files. Can anyone offer any help please? 

 

                                    Much appreciated

Do you use FSX:SE? There is an updated simconnect file that needs to be run alongside the other simconnects.

Thanks for the reply. I am using standard fsx and not SE. Do you have a link to the updated simconnect file or know where i can find it. Also if you got it working will you be able to post your files (simconnect.xml, simconnect.cfg and simconnect.ini) just so i can compare and make sure i got all of the required information.

 

                                           Thanks

Sure... I'm away from my pc, but will publish in the next day or so.

Here you go...  Good luck.
