September 16, 20241 yr having problems lately, MCE starts i tell him some command (turn on landing lights, or whatever else simple command) he says he is doing it but he really is not doing anything, seems to be able to change flaps only and not very well since flaps 2 is full for him, version .98 also have issues with MCE sometimes does not start at all need to reboot computer or it is doing this silent start and i need to restart computer for it to work, my earlier post had same issue but seems i don't need to reinstall just restart,, it is a MAJOR pain as it requires to be started last, using with fenix a320 atm. flaps and gear and parking brake about all he can move, other he says he did it but does not actually do anything reversed to 93 same thing with fenix tried with pmdg 738 seems to work fine but fenix is a no go idk what the heck is happening Edited September 16, 20241 yr by AndyCYXU added Andy Home Cockpit B737

Go to MSFS community folder and check a <fsuipc-lvar-module> is there. Maybe deleted by accident. Re-installing MCE should put one back and the one it was tested with. Will eventually be checked with Fenix and if required a new patch or package will be uploaded. The plane is changing too often. There is also the possibility the new A321 isn't detected as the one from Fenix and MCE is interacting with it as default plane, in which case only gear flaps will work. If it's not the A320, could you post the [fltsim.X] section in "aircraft.cfg"? Thanks Edited September 16, 20241 yr by FS++ Gerald R https://www.multicrewxp.com
September 16, 20241 yr Author i will leave it here as this mod is popular and maybe this will help someone but you will never believe what might have caused the issue... !! ok so 4 hours later.. the MSFS Map Enhancement aka google maps mod .. i do not have an idea what this mod is accessing but obviously it was fighting with MCE .. I was using newest version of that MOD 8.0.10 and after multitude of reboots of MSFS (trying to find out what if any other software is causing the issue) i finally got the MCE to change everything as it should in Fenix.. no issues.. well I forgot to start the google maps mod last thing i would ever suspect of causing issue.. so however time consuming starting MSFS is i did it few more times and every time i used the google maps mod MCE would not work in fenix as described in original post.. every time i started MSFS without the google maps mod MCE would work fine in fenix so go figure.. since i like the google maps mod i got older version from github 7.6.2 and now they both work properly together there are no issues I cannot believe that these two would somehow interfere with each other i did install the 8.0.10 map mod very recently so i am pretty certain that was the culprit.. well it works now so..

September 19, 20241 yr Author now it doesn't even work with older version of this Google maps mod.. but i actually also had problems with FSUIPC while using the mod.. so idk what he heck is going on .. too bad i really liked google maps over the overly green Bing maps.. oh well... the funny thing is all was good and i have MCE for over a year now i think and Google maps since it was available .. oh well...

If they decide to use FSUIPC, then they need to keep up with the changes and release new packages every 3 months or so because FSUIPC does change a lot. A warning to everyone developing for flight simulators. Unless you are prepared to sink your life into an endless update/check/recheck/ cycle, your one time release will be dead within 6 months. And since most of those on .to are freeware, once the "pats in the back" die out, there is little incentive to do so. Gerald R https://www.multicrewxp.com
