Simconnect Whisplacer can't connect

Featured Replies

I've already searched this forum but could not solve my problem.

I recently could connect Whisplacer with the sim via simconnect. Now it states can not find the simconnect port.

I use it on the same machine, so no definitions are made...I think. Maybe that's the problem

Tried to uninstall and reinstall all 3 simconnect. Didn't solve my problem. 

Any new ideas?

I became aware of the problem after installing iFlys 737Max. It does not work probably because of this simconnect issue. I have no landing gear and the cockpit is frozen. Their support suggested it's simconnect and together with Whisplacer no longer connecting, this can be true.

Any ideas?

After repairing P3D5, reinstalling Whisplacer, Simconnect, JAVA, nothing changed. But I found a solution. Checking SODE Placer, which is the same base program as Whisplacer, I found it connects without any problem. I saw there in the connect parameters it has automatic connection too. Behind inactive was the connection data localhost and port 12067. With this value, I can connect to P3D5 again but I must not have it on automatic connection selected. So two basicly same programs but different settings. I wonder, if some Windows update broke my flightsim computer. Unlike others here, I wasn't deleting something. The only things that changed were Windows updates. I also missed the texture folder in ASCA. What the heck is going on?

Now if only the problem with the iFly 737Max could be solved. I do no longer think it is Simconnect related.

Could solve it. The reason was, I bought from Simmarket on another e-mail than i have at Flight1. So changing this let me redeem the product at Flight1 and now it works. So rather buy this bird there from the begin.
