• 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.

SDE 0.81 error

Hello Jon

I have the same error as the one posted earlier this month by Alex (ADE052).

I have delux fsx, sdk sp1a installed. I have "repaired" the fsx installation, I have copied the dll to my SDE folder, I have both versions of the dll in Wndows sxs, I have reinstalled SDE into new folder - nothing works!

I have been using SDE for some time and this is the only time I have had this problem. All I have done is upgrade my computers processor.

Any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
Paul
 
Hi Paul

I am not sure what to suggest then. If both versions of simconnect are present in the right folders and you have tried copying the managed dll into the SDE application folder then those are the only things I am aware of that cause the problem.
 
Hello Jon

Thank you. If by some miracle I find the problem, I'll let you know.

Regards
Paul

What is the error - is it not finding simconnect?
 
Hello Jon

Yes. It could not find simconnect.

Although I said I have both versions installed in the winSxS folder, when I checked the folder ( ver.10.0.60905.0 ), there was nothing inside ( no Simconnect.dll ).

Since I had already tried the repair option on fsx and it did not reinstall the .dll, I deleted that file and did another repair.

I am happy to report that SDE is up and running.

I don't know how or why the simconnect.dll went missing and I,m not going to give it another thought.

Thank you for a very good little programme Jon.

All the best
Cheers
Paul
