• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

I'm struggling to get Doug's Event logger 64 bit to work in P3D V5. When I have the dll in the panel folder, and the entry in the panel.cfg I get an error when starting up P3D. If I remove the dll or change the line in the panel.cfg the error goes away.

Error is:

Exception in DefWndProc "Exception from HRESULT:0xC000014B
(ExMessage msg=0x402 hwnd=0x220ade wparam=0x0 lparam=0x0 result=0x0)

What am I doing wrong?!!

Just tested. it works!
latest version is from 6.1.2019

panel.cfg

gauge93=XMLDSD_Gauges\dsd_p3d_event_logger_x64!event_logger, 40, 40, 220, 173 // Activate it only for testing ** Big Logfile at Main Dir == Key_Events_Sent.log

i use a sub-dir for all DSD gauges. Just for info.

Although Doug says the logfile is created in the main sim folder, it's actually created in the last active sim folder when the sim is running. On startup, one of my projects checks for a \modules folder under the main \aircraftname folder. If the \modules folder isn't there, it is created. Under these circumstances the log file is created in the \modules folder. Just be aware of this.

P3Dv5 just played around. But i'm using always my prefered plane. So maybe i'm doing wrong.
Key_Events_Sent.log was always found in in my main-dir "P3Dv5".

Ah - normally the last active folder is the main sim folder. It's only if your aircraft changes to a new folder for some reason (as I describe above) that you will find the logfile in an unexpected place.
