OK, Not so simple. Hitting slave to SimConnect fails, port not found.
First of all, on the gaming computer you don't need to install anything special, Microsoft Flight Sim runs its own simconnect server, you just need to set it up properly.
Find the SimConnect.xml in the Microsoft files, usually somewhere here:
C:\Users\[user name]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache
Add a new connection to that xml file:
- Code: Select all
<SimConnect.Comm>
<Descr>Global IP Port</Descr>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Protocol>IPv4</Protocol>
<Scope>global</Scope>
<Address>192.168.0.66</Address> !!Set the IP of your gaming machine
<MaxClients>64</MaxClients>
<Port>7421</Port> !!Can be another port if you like
<MaxRecvSize>4096</MaxRecvSize>
<DisableNagle>False</DisableNagle>
</SimConnect.Comm>
The SimConnect library is supposed to find it's port automatically.
So probably it failed to do so, or the SimConnect Port was just not open. I do not know if you have to tell MSFS to open it...
