Ahmed Zeineldin 1450113 Posted October 4, 2019 at 04:21 PM Posted October 4, 2019 at 04:21 PM Hello! I've recently have logged onto the VATSIM NETWORK and then when I connected all the other aircrafts were default. I have FLAI installed and when I entered into settings there was a bar showing Model Matching FSX and another which showed Model Matching FSX:SE. The one with FSX has all my files but the one with FSX:SE did not recognise anything and when I hit scan it shows 0 models, 0 identified. I have a picture over here. https://www.dropbox.com/s/9chlczavex4fhpz/Untitled.jpg?dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/s/ffhllw52xbwshuy/vPILOT.jpg?dl=0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted October 4, 2019 at 06:25 PM Posted October 4, 2019 at 06:25 PM Ahmed, please open this folder in a windows explorer window: %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX-SE Within that folder you should see a file called fsx_se.CFG Open that file in a text editor, and search for lines starting with SimObjectPaths Do you find any such lines?

Ahmed Zeineldin 1450113 Posted October 5, 2019 at 03:08 AM Author Posted October 5, 2019 at 03:08 AM Nope, only found graphis and texture max load. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted October 5, 2019 at 03:29 AM Posted October 5, 2019 at 03:29 AM Okay, so that's why vPilot isn't finding any models. I think I'll need to make a change to vPilot to have it detect this situation where you have both FSX and FSX:SE installed and they both point to the same exe file. For now, you should be able to fix it by copying the SimObjectPaths entries from your FSX.cfg file to your FSX_SE.cfg file. You can find your FSX.cfg file here: %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX Make sure they are in the [Main] section.

Ross Carlson Posted October 6, 2019 at 03:10 PM Posted October 6, 2019 at 03:10 PM Okay, great. I would like to modify vPilot so that it properly detects this situation where you have FSX and FSX:SE both pointing to the same folder. It would be helpful for me to know the simulator name that vPilot detects when you run it. Can you look at the startup messages and tell me exactly what it shows in the line starting with "Connected to simulator." ? For example, mine says: [15:07:38] Connected to simulator.

Ahmed Zeineldin 1450113 Posted October 7, 2019 at 05:53 PM Author Posted October 7, 2019 at 05:53 PM Says the exact same thing but for FSX, it scans the models for FSX but not FSXSE. But now its okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maciej Wal 1393299 Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:33 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 03:33 PM @Ross Carlson 887155 I have the same issue, FSX its finding all Model Matching but FSXSE says zero, I'll try to change cfg file and see if it works ... if you need any logs just send me pm and I can send them to you so you can change so in the future should work without any problems.

Ross Carlson Posted October 16, 2019 at 01:29 AM Posted October 16, 2019 at 01:29 AM Maciej, do your FSX and FSX:SE installations both point to the same folder?

Thomas Pain 1418710 Posted October 16, 2019 at 11:06 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 11:06 PM Evening! I have the same issue, however I only have FSX:SE installed. The fsx-se.cfg file contained only [Graphics] TEXTURE_MAX_LOAD=2048 HIGHMEMFIX=1 before I added the main and SimObjectPaths sections. Once connected to the sim in vPilot (with FSX:SE) I get the following: [23:01:01] Connected to simulator. (Microsoft Flight Simulator X) [23:01:01] Custom model matching rules loaded. [23:01:01] Model matching rules generated. Models were initially only found in the FSX entry in the settings menu. Adding my model matching VMR files to the FSX entry did not get any models to show, only the default one. Adding the VMR files to the FSX:SE entry did show models, but not the correct models (ie. 737-200s for RYR because 738s were broken - I am going to reinstall FLAi tomorrow to see if it's an issue with that or A318s for EIN but I now think it's because they could not be found because of the paths). From what I can tell, FSX:SE uses the %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX stuff instead of the FSX-SE folder. Hope this helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted October 17, 2019 at 01:49 AM Posted October 17, 2019 at 01:49 AM Thomas, did you ever have regular FSX installed? Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maciej Wal 1393299 Posted October 17, 2019 at 02:59 PM Posted October 17, 2019 at 02:59 PM I only have FSXSE, and what I done its add SimObjectPaths to FSX.cfg, restarted vpilot and all sorted working like it should be ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ross Carlson Posted October 17, 2019 at 04:01 PM Posted October 17, 2019 at 04:01 PM Maciej, If you only have FSXSE installed, then why did you say this: "FSX its finding all Model Matching but FSXSE says zero" ?

Maciej Wal 1393299 Posted October 20, 2019 at 01:58 PM Posted October 20, 2019 at 01:58 PM Hi, Before updating Vpilot I had "Model Matching (FSX)" and was working perfectly fine, but after updating Vpilot its "Model Matching (FSX) and "Model Matching (FSX:SE) where on the FSX I had my all models but in FSX:SE was none, thats why adding line to .cfg solved problem with no models in FSX:SE.

Ross Carlson Posted October 20, 2019 at 04:20 PM Posted October 20, 2019 at 04:20 PM Maciej, I am confused by your posts. Please answer this question, and this question only: Do you have both FSX and FSX:SE installed or just FSX:SE?

Ross Carlson Posted October 25, 2019 at 02:16 AM Posted October 25, 2019 at 02:16 AM Okay, thank you. I think what happened is that Steam updated FSX:SE so that it now installs configuration files in the same place as the boxed version of FSX. So if you had FSX:SE installed before this change, you will have the config files where vPilot looks for them when checking if you have FSX:SE installed. Then, when this update came out, it now installs the config files in the spot where vPilot looks for them when checking if you have regular FSX installed. This leads to vPilot thinking you have both FSX and FSX:SE installed. I think I'll update vPilot to detect when it finds registry keys and config files for both FSX and FSX:SE, but the registry keys both point to the same exe file, and when that happens, it will ignore the FSX:SE files and only use the FSX files.

Ross Carlson Posted October 25, 2019 at 03:04 AM Posted October 25, 2019 at 03:04 AM Maciej (and others in this thread with the same issue) can you please give this build of vPilot a try? https://vpilot.metacraft.com/[Mod - Happy Thoughts]ets/Files/Installers/vPilot-Setup-2.4.1.exe This should show ONLY FSX in your model matching settings. Please let me know how it works out. Thanks. Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
