From One Sim To Another?

[teisco]

If I setup a particular aircraft in FSX can I then have that profile also work in P3D or do I have to setup another profile for that aircraft for P3D?

It should work properly, just copy the FSLSpotlights.ini file over to the other folder.

Note: If you were working on FSX DX9, there might be slight modifications required - DX10 and P3D (which runs in DX11) are using pixel shaders whereby DX9 is using vertex shaders. Chances are you won't even see any differences though.

Thanks, love the product but having trouble with it opening in P3Dv3. P3D sometimes stalls and a window pops up saying that spotlights did not connect. Also most of the time the small icon on the bottom screen does not appear in P3D full or windowed screens.

I have it setup for both FSXSE and P3Dv3 and it works great in FSXSE but not always in P3D.

Can you please take a screenshot of the popup window with the problem?

[teisco]

sure,, here is the pop up I get randomly in P3D. Also if it does connect I sometimes do not get the small icon in the bottom left screen. Really want this to work in P3D as that is the sim I use to fly in. I use FSX only to do paints for developers and test software.

Does this error occur after you have closed one simulator platform and immediately reloaded another? (like FSX to P3D etc.)

[teisco]

Not really, it does it randomly now in both sims. I will try to reinstall and see if that helps.

Reinstalling will not make a difference.

Send me a PM and we'll try to resolve on your computer using some logging mechanism tricks we have under our sleeve.
