Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition

Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition

Addons that are working fine
I wanted to create this thread to provide other users a list of addons we have tested successfully.

I had bought two addons from the company Zinertek. Those were able to install (even detected the correct directory) and worked correctly. Those are:
  1. World Environment 2012
  2. Ultimate Airport Environment X

Please also feel free to visit user sancron's Wiki-page for working Add-Ons:

  1. RAAS (one of the locked down editions) and PDF Kneeboard*

    [...]Tried some other Orbx products and they all install fine. Only add-on I have had a issus with so far is Active Sky.
    Still it seems promising shame it looks like the updated FSUIPC wont be released until the new year due to Peter's PC having died.
  23. ThreatCue lähetti viestin:
    All my Alabeo and Carenado aircraft work. Far too many to list so I think its safe to say all the aircraft from those two will be okay.

  42. falcon_x lähetti viestin:
    AirHauler also appears to work correctly after changing the path it uses to the Steam FSX. Also requires the new FSUIPC that is compatible with Steam FSX.
  43. Earth Simulations lähetti viestin:
    Earth Simulations Scenery now has FSX Steam Edition installers and they work great :)

  80. FSUIPC (4.938)
  81. Radar Contact
    ginsb001 lähetti viestin:
    Radar Contact 4 (build 3845) works with FSX-SE. I tested through loading a plan file and getting clearance.

    You must use the latest fsuipc4 now equipped for Steam:

    http://forum.simflight.com/topic/66139-updated-modules/

    4.938a version full install.

    When installing Radar Contact it may try to install an older fsuipc4 which can't find the FSX path for registration. Just cancel out of that and continue install. fsuipc4.938a should be installed first or later.

    After RC installs, in your FSX folder place the latest version of makeryws.exe from:

    http://forum.simflight.com/topic/66136-useful-additional-programs/

    then rerun from within RC the scenery rebuild again.

    On VISTA or win 7 or later, create a shortcut to rcv4.exe in your new RCv4x folder. Set the first property and advanced property windows both to run as admin to get user rights and program connection rights to FSX especially in any program files folder hierarchy.

    You may have to enter the path to the FSX folder in some steps including building the scenery database in RC. mine is:

    H:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX.

    In RC you get an explorer type window for setting your flt/wx path. Never cancel out of that but change or accept the current selection. Cancelling out could corrupt RC's strartup data files.

    Once running successfully in your rcv4x folder copy the files rcv3.dat and keyboard.dat to a safe backup folder to avoid a reinstallation. In that same folder it would be wise to place a text copy of your current license key mailed to you to avoid registration again should you need to reinstall. The current key is valid for the assigned drive as long as you do not reformat it.

    RC allows a certain low number of automatic new key registrations if required such as moving to a different drive or PC. If you change your e-mail address from your initial order it will have to be manually handled.

    You do not need to be online to run RC once the install is complete.

    Keep a copy of the downloaded jnstallation zip file on a CD or other safe location should you require to reinstall RC to avoid downloading again.

Maybe helpful posts:
Chrima83 lähetti viestin:
many issues were solved by running the "Steam\SteamApps\common\FSX\SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\LegacyInterfaces\FSX-XPACK\SimConnect.msi" file after mods were installed. Have read it in Aerosoft forum and functionally great with some or mostly add ons

searchbaremail lähetti viestin:
Some of the addons did not work properly but after following the advise on this page, i was able to get it working.
This saved my day: https://projectflightsim.com/fsx-steam-version-working-addons/

See below

BillyR lähetti viestin:
Registry Repair tool - DO NOT use this tool if you have a version OTHER THAN FSX:SE on your system. This tool will patch the location of FSX:SE in the registry.

http://www.flight1.com/view.asp?page=library

It is the 4th item in the list. After download run the tool and navigate to the location of FSX:SE FSX.exe
You must click it then click open in the tool. It will then patch the registry. If it fails to work some systems may require a restart to take effect. Again, DO NOT USE this if you have a NON STEAM addition on your computer, it will bork the installation.

I purchased Active Sky Next since I read on their forum that they are working on a viable solution to making the addon work, but it doesn't work, yet. I installed it and tried to use with the FSX:SE and it broke the game. I am currently reinstalling FSX.
I had the same experience, then I installed the correct simconnet dll and now it works fine

you dont need to reinstall it, just wait for new updates from addons developers, they will sort it out instead of you, dont need to do anything just wait.

I find that hard to believe as there is a complete difference in the code hat prevent ASN from working with FSX-SE! It may be "partially" working even that is hard to understand with whats taking place with the connect module.

PMDG 747-400 works fine.
How did people get the PMDG 747 working? I've installed it a couple of times and it causes my FSX to crash with PMDGOptions.dll error.

I've installed all the Simconnects, and I still suffer this issue. Upon startup of FSX, I get an asaudio.exe window (command-prompt-like), and the game crashes when starting a flight at "Creating World Wide Weather" - which is at about 80% loaded.

If anyone experiences this issue, don't reinstall FSX; just uninstall ASN and the ASConnect program through the control panel Uninstall dialogue. (EDIT: Or fix it if you can, really; I'm not your mother; you don't have to listen to me)

Be aware of, that the current FSDT Addon is currently (since the last update of FSX SE) not working, but there is a solution on the way...

So QW 757 isn't working at the moment...
