I have read everything on the p3d SDk in regards to setting up SimConnect. I followed every step, but never a successful connection. Windows firewall is off on all machines.
I setup the simconnect.xml and moved it to the correct location
I installed the sdk on my clients and put the configured simconnect.cfg in the correct location
Am I missing something?
I have searched on google and read that there is a simconnect.msi file that needs to be installed does this apply to p3d?
Note: I am using IP4v protocol my server's ip address is 192.168.1.202 using port 9700
Please Help SimConnect setup
No, simconnect.msi isn't required any more.
Check first with netstat -na on your commandline if P3D is listening. Looks like this:
Code:
TCP 127.0.0.1:9700 192.168.1.202:9700 LISTENING
Afterwards, check the network connection from another machine, again via commandline:
Code:
$>telnet 192.168.1.202 9700
If you see a blank empty window, you're connected to the simconnect port. If not, investigate your network settings, firewall etc again.
