Simconnect

[AndyG43]

so just a thought...why not consider re-downloading your TacPack purchase from your VRS Customer Page... possibly updated, and re-install TacPack in your FSX-SP2/A or FSX-SE install; and perhaps the issue will resolve itself

per this thread, it appears simconnect was updated for FSX-SE: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/497361-fsx-se-installing-simconnect/ to v10.0.62615.0

and per this thread, it appears FSX-SP2/A has the simconnect you are struggling with: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/570908-the-bear-fsx-simconnect/ --> v10.0.61259.0 --> not the most up to date, and perhaps no longer compatible with TacPack??

cheers!

I'll give that a look & see if it helps, thanks.

And we finally have a solution!!

It seems W11 stores the simconnect.dll in a different place to W10; instead of it being C: ....... WinSxS it is now C: ....... WinSxS/Fusion! Quite why Tacpack struggled with that is a mystery. I copied the file over to FSX and ..... voila!

Thank you all for your help.

Andy, do you think you could be more specific on the directories you copied the simconnect.dll from and to.

Thanks
