After reading numerous posts from all over the web, I decided to spend my entire weekend trying to figure this out.Good news! I did!!! Thanks to the multitude of frustrated posters on this, and other forums.NOTE: This post assumes... (1) you have experience in Delphi and (2) have done work with SimConnect within Delphi before, but are just having difficulty getting SimConnect and Delphi XE2 to play nice together.1. Start by downloading the latest Delphi SimConnect files from C. Scott Hendry's web site (this is the latest FSX SimConnect):http://members.iinet...her/Delphi2.zip2. Following these instructions in editing the SimConnect.pas file to support AnsiChars and Ansi…

Hi All, I'd like to share with you the software I created. WebSimConnect is a web based interface for FSX and Prepar3d. It enables web developersto build own cockpits or other components using HTML web pages with basic JavaScript programming. It can also be used to connect client applications built on any operating system to Flight Simulator using standard HTTP protocol. Its primary goal was to extend the Flight Simulation experience with mobile devices like smartphones, tablets etc. with no-mswindows operating systems You can also you use to test simconnect variables without writing any line of code. Look for my examples - WebSimConnect Lab - get values, set values,…

I am trying to trigger some instrument panel failures as an experiment but can't get it to work. In snippets this is more or less what I have done, I am using C# managed code. enum DEFINITIONS { PlaneLocationDR, AirspeedGaugeFailureDR } enum DATA_REQUESTS { RequestLocation } public enum GaugeStateMode // values as in the SimConnect SDK { OK = 0, Fail = 1, Blank = 2 } [StructLayout(LayoutKind.Sequential, CharSet = CharSet.Ansi, Pack = 1)] struct AirspeedGaugeDR { GaugeStateMode AirspeedGaugeStatus; static void Register(SimConnect simconnect) { simconnect.AddToDataDefinition(DEFINITIONS.AirspeedGaugeFailur…

I am looking for a working example of setting a gauge (PARTIAL PANEL XXXX) such as the AIRSPEED gauge to a failure state using Managed code (C#). The SDK says it is settable and that it can be OK, Fail or Blank, those are the three values on the enumeration. I just can't get that to do anything.

Hi all! I am new both to SimConnect and to this forum, so first of all I would like to thank you all for the help provided so far. I have implemented a little Android app which communicates with an .exe file connected to FSX through SimConnect. I would like to know if it would be possible to Show or Hide a panel (beyond the 9th) from this external .exe file or if there is any "simple" way to show or hide it (say for example the window12 defined in the corresponding panel.cfg file). Thank you very much in advance!

Anyone know, using Simconnect, how to move the user's airplane around (ie., pushback). I want to improve FS2Crew's pushback utility which relies on the stock FSX pushback mechanism. (Not trying to re-invent AES or GSX... just want to make my pushback better for my users)

I have Simconnect Client installed on my secondary (client) laptop. How can I determine which version (Service Pack) is installed; and if I need to update it to SP2, where can I download SP2? Also, must the Simconnect Client version match a specific version of the Simconnect “server” which is installed on my server PC, or are the Simconnect server and client versions independent? Thank you, Ken Boardman

I have FSX SP2 and am trying to develop an application using managed code (C#) with the SimConnect library. I am able to connect and check some items. Now, I want to induce some system failures such as engine failure, pitot failure, etc. However, when I look at the SimVars documentation it says those are NOT settable. So, how on earth do I induce a system failure if I cannot write to it?

I have FSX with Accelerator. I just purchased OPUS and it's not in the drop down menu in FSX. I checked the FSX Config file and there's no simconnect in it. There is a Simconnect in the OPUS File. Do I need a Simconnect in FSX , and if so how do I install it there ? Thanks

Hello all, I have recently tried to run Xpax (sp1 with hotfix) via a network but to no avail. Xpax gives an error when it start on the client but if I click on "Connect to FS" it can connect successfully, and I can see the green row with text on the Server PC running FSX. However, the problem is that it cannot access my aircrafts from Server, and does not have dynamic weight change on the aircraft when boarding passengers. I have REX E+OD running on the same Client via simconnect, and FS Commander 9.2 running via Fsuipc/WideFS. All other fsx network add-ons are working perfectly other then Xpax. The error I get when Xpax starts, as well as when I click on the air…

Hi For some reason I'm losing my connection to simconnect after seemingly random amounts of time. I turned on the diagnostic window in simconnect.ini and I see this after setting level to Warning: 2466.20049 [69] I/O Error! (2, 80004004) 2488.763255 [128] Disconnected! (5, C000014B) A couple questions: 1. What are the sections of each line? a. 2466.20049: number of seconds elapsed b. [69]: c. I/O Error!: d. (2, 80004004) 2. What causes an I/O Error? MySimconnect.exe is on the same machine as P3D 1.3. Does it have something to do with the data I'm sending? Could I be overloading simconnect, or sending data that is not the right format? How can I track dow…

Hello, Thank you for taking the time to view this post. For over three years now I have skirted around messing with Simconnect because I never could get my head around it. However, I now find myself in need of it (apparently) after building a new system and having other programs on another networked PC. In particular, XPAX and FSmaps. Today, I finally tried to get the dam thing working and made somesort of progress because I have never seen this before (see attachment) What on earth have I done? It just keeps scrolling on and on and I have to close FSX to stop it. Any help will be hugely appreciated. Thank you in advance, Paul

Help please....Until afew days ago whenever i loaded FSX the simconnect diagnostic window opens during the load process and remains open for approx 10 seconds whilst lots of text scrolls then it automatically closes and i dont see it again. Last week i installed JF Tristar and for some reason the Simconnect window never closes now. It remains open with thousands of items of data scrolling down. I can minimise it but to close it shuts down FSX. Have been using FSX with VISTA for years and this is the first time i had this, Note that FSX works fine with it open but why doesnt it close down? Thanks

Hi guy and apologies if this has been asked but this is my first venture into simconnect I have had a look at frooglesims video on you tube and I think I'm sort of setup in the fact that I have 3 different simconnect client versions installed on my system and have everything running at the same state which is fsx acceleration. I his video before I can use my laptop to connect to my main fsx folder on my main pc he mentions 2 files the simconnect.ini files and simconnect.cfg file I have checked both of the locations where these files reside but they are not there do I have to create them manually or is there something that I have forgotten to do or not done yet many …

Hello all, Some time ago I installed a posky Boeing 772 with the jbpanel, which is really great and better than, say, the justflight/wilco 777. This is a link to the plane: http://www.fs-freeware.net/item/533-fsx-boeing-777-200er-air-new-zealand Unfortunately, since quite some time, it stopped working and comes up with some nasty messages on the PFD failed to load b777serv.dll check simconnect 10.0.61259 check mscvr90.dll I'm on windows xp sp3 I completely uninstalled sdk and then installed it back on. My FSX version is 10.0.61472 which corresponds with SP2. That's correct cause I have sp2 installed. In my fsx dir I see a simconnect.dll whi…

Hello i have no idea why i even thought of trying simconnect .haha. my journey started with installing simconnect using this guide http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=SDK_Installation_%28FSX%29 i followed the part where it says ( FSX Acceleration Pack users about 3/4 down the page) and it states to first install the sdk from the deluxe disk 1 then to install sp1a that comes with the acceleration disk then to install the main acceleration sdk ( so no sp2 ) and then i continued to configure my simconnect .ini and .xml and .cfg BUT when i first tried to open fsx and run AI traffic on my client computer there was no connection ( By the way fsx is on my E drive…
