Active sky next: waiting for simulator

[Philipljung 3]

Hi, I have bought active sky next on steam for Fsx:se, but my problem is that even though I have fsx opened and active sky next opened. It says: waiting for simulator. What am I going to do?

Here is how I am opening it in order: 

1. Fsx

2. Active sky next

3. Waiting for simulator

how do I fix this?

any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

Did you install the ASNConnect (I think its called) after installing ASN?

Uhm, no. I dont know how?

my understanding is that you start Activesky first, then you start FSX

[Philipljung 3]

Correct

Look in your activesky folder for an .exe file, something like as asconnect.exe. But I cannot honestly remember if this was for Active Sky 2016 or ASN!
