P3Dv5 and MCE?

Recommended Posts

Gerald,

Where do I get the 2.8.4.3 installer?  The download version is 2.8.4.2.

Thanks!

 

 

Get the official release.

Latest MCE is V2.8.4.2

It's just fsInsider64.dll that had a last minute revision to V2.8.4.3

Splash should always display "mce.exe" version (V2.8.4.2)

Confirm all OK. Thanks

Thanks Gerald, that's how I'm configured. 

Running P3DV5 and using the feelThere ERJ-175 latest, MCE will not recognize the aircraft.  ChasePlane shows it as the "feelThere PIC E175".  I was successful with this setup under P3DV4.5.

I appreciate your patience and help.

Best regards, Dave.

As I pointed out here:


Fsinsider64.dll v2.8.4.3 doesn't recognize the planes.
Fsinsider64.dll v2.8.3.8 recognizes them.

Run it with tested configuration.

mce.exe (V2.8.4.2) + fsInsider64.dll (V2.8.4.3) in \Prepar3D v5\

A full e-install should get you into that config.

It's more to do with recent move to no longer require the sim to run as admin. Must have latest files in both

Ok Gerald, I'll try a little later but if I'm not mistaken, it seems that DWadsworth has updated MCE program, it seems that it has the problem of unrecognized aircraft.
That said just now I'm flying with MCE.exe version 2.8.3.8 + fsInsider64.dll v2.8.3.8 + RC4 and everything works perfectly including GSX.

Gerald,

Yes, I installed it into the \Prepar3D v5 Add-ons. The installer gives the choice to install it into the main P3Dv5 folder or into Add-ons. Obviously, this may be the cause of the issue.  It works fine from there though.  Please let me know if I can help troubleshoot this further,  Be glad to help.

Thanks, 

Dave

OK thanks. I think I know what the issue is. Another dll needs to be updated. The one that looks for planes installed outside main SImobject folder.

Search wasn't extended to various \Prepar3D v5\ folders. Was only looking for \Prepar3D v4\ folders in various places.

Thanks for the report

Should be sorted tomorrow.

Hi Gerald, it seems in the case of the "autodiscovery" there is still something different to the former version. As you may remember i´am using Jeehell in a homecockpit where the aircrafts are NOT installed in the P3D/Simobjects. For P3D 4.5 i have created an add-on xml which "injected" the Jeehell aircraft folders into P3D that it can find it and so MCE did with P3D 4.5. 

Now in P3D V5 the developer of Jeehell has already implemented the add-on xml which works exactly the same way as i did manually in 4.5.  But MCE can´t find the aircraft as it does in V4.5.

I have updated MCE to the actual .43 version but it don´t find the ac. I also tried to replace the fsinsider.dll and the patch files but MCE still can´t find the ac. Only if i copy the aircraft folders into the root folder "simobjects" MCE find the aircraft right away and everything is fine. But this is not how it should be. For several reasons it must be the case that MCE finds the simobjects also if they are injected via an add-on.xml. Because LM mentioned in the SDK that generally no add-on should be installed into the P3D root directories. This is for what the add-on xml was stated.

But at least because this xml variant worked in the pairing MCE-P3D4.5 but doesn´t with V5, my guess there is something not right yet in the simobjects discovery method of MCE.

cheers

Bernd
