September 10, 200421 yr Hi I have RCv3.1 on my computer with FS9 and have just installed FS2000 aswell, as I want to use Dreamfleet and would like to use RCv3.1 with FS2000 aswell.Is there anyway I can use RCv3.1 with both FS2000 and FS9 as I would like to use FS9 one day and FS2000 the next. Would I need to install RCv3.1 again and point it to FS2000 or is this not possible without another machine. I have 2 HDs on my computer I dont know if this would help?Your help would be much appreciated.regardsStuart
September 10, 200421 yr Commercial Member the only reason why i ask what simulator you are using during the install, is so i know where to put fsuipc, advdisp and the tutorial flights.you should be able to use the same rcv3.1 installation for both simulators. you will have to manually put fsuipc and advdisp in the other simulator's modules directoryyou will not be able to save dats in one, and load them into the otheri'm not sure, but i don't think you can load a .pln from one simulator's directory and run it in the other simulator. i could be wrong, there.since weather is handled differently in fs2004, you're going to get better weather reporting with rcv3.1/fs2004, than you will with rcv3.1/fs2000 without an external weather programanyone else with insights?jd JD Read my blog
September 10, 200421 yr Hi Thanks but I'm still a bit confused as to whether I can use both simulators with RCv31 at different times. I installed RCv31 to work with FS9 and therefore I have the FSUIPC, Adv display installed in FS9. I dont have the FSUIPC installed yet in FS2000.I know it would be easier if I installed FS2000 on another machine and then installed RCv31 again but unfortunately the other machine is far too slow and I want to have both sims working on the same machine but of course using RCv31 with both sims. If you can help me any further, then I'd be grateful;-)regardsStuart
September 10, 200421 yr Yes you can use both sims with one install of RCv31. Copy both FSUIPC.DLL and advdisplay.dll to your FS2000modules folder as JD suggested. When you want to use RCv3 with FS9 point it to your flight simulator files folder under my documents. When you want to use it with FS2000 point RCv3 to the folder you store your FS2000 flight plans. I think its called My Flights or something similar.
September 10, 200421 yr Hi Thanks for your help. I followed your advice and the tutorials are working fine in FS2000 and FS9:) It seems to be the Pilots folder in FS2000 that I need to put the flightplan in.Thanks for your help guys.kind regardsStuart UK
