Danny Moore 0 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 (edited) I'm running vPilot Host Mode for and decided to give 2020 a try that I purchased from MS Store. vPilot doesn't seen to see MSFS2020. Connected to simulator: No. Works great for P3D. My registry entries are correct from the other post I read here.. Any suggestions?

Ross Carlson 152 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Does the vPilot host window show that it is trying to connect to the simulator? Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to post Share on other sites

Ross Carlson 152 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Press the Debug button, and see if the console window shows messages like this: [23:22:27.231] vPilot version 2.6.10 [23:22:27.399] Attempting simulator connection... [23:22:27.802] Simulator connection failed. [23:22:32.400] Attempting simulator connection... [23:22:32.804] Simulator connection failed. [23:22:37.399] Attempting simulator connection...

Ross Carlson 152 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 Then something is preventing the SimConnect connection from working. Have you messed around with any SimConnect.xml, SimConnect.ini, or SimConnect.cfg files on your system?

Danny Moore 0 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 If you referring to the ones in the 2020 folder, I only see the XML one which I have not touched, I do have those files for P3D in the P3D and Documents folder. Would they cause a conflict? Link to post Share on other sites
Ross Carlson 152 Posted December 2, 2020 Share Posted December 2, 2020 If you have a .cfg file in your My Documents folder, that could cause problems, since that will be used by any SimConnect application. Try temporarily renaming it. 1 Developer: vPilot, VRC, vSTARS, vERAM, VAT-Spy Senior Controller, Boston Virtual ARTCC Link to post Share on other sites
Danny Moore 0 Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 Ross Removing the SimConnect.cfg from My Document solved the problem. Both P3D and MSFS2020 now work in vPilot Host Mode. Thanks for the help. Dan Link to post Share on other sites
