Two dll.xml files?

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

 

Does anyone know why there are two dll.xml files? I have one in appdata/roaming and one in programdata. They are not identical. The one in appdata/roaming contains the most entries for the addons I use, The file located in programdata only contains an entry to Mindstar. Are both files being read?

 

The biggest of the two also contains this entry:

 

  <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>CMetroXml</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Path>.\CMetroXml.dll</Path>
  </Launch.Addon>
  <Launch.Addon>
 
Does anyone know to which addon this belongs?

dll.xml files?

The one in "appdata/roaming" is the legacy file system structure dll.xml (99%+ of addons still use this)

The one in "programdata" is part of the new LM P3D proposed file system format.

Both are read by P3D. Just make sure you don't have duplicated entries.

 

CMetroXml

I believe this one is from Carenado, their weather gauge.
