hawkhero856 1 Posted December 18, 2020 Author Share Posted December 18, 2020 I found the zip file on your website. It's on the hardware tab for the throttle for sale. Scroll down and there are drivers for the different flight sims Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft BenBaron 287 Posted December 18, 2020 Aerosoft Share Posted December 18, 2020 Hi Greg, please make sure, that the installer has added the required executable to be started automatically by MSFS. For this, please attach the file "exe.xml" for our review, which can be found under the path shown by the installer: Please login to display this image.

highflyer525 39 Posted December 21, 2020 Share Posted December 21, 2020 Hi all, It seems to be saving the exe.xml to the wrong path. C:\User\{username}\appdata\roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator doesn't exist. You also have to create it manually as the installer isn't creating the directory when it can't find it either. However, this is still the wrong location for the exe.xml. To fix it I: Create the Microsoft Flight Simulator directory in {YourDrive}:\User\{username}\appdata\roaming\ to allow it to create the exe.xml Then go to {YourDrive}:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache and see if you already have an exe.xml in this directory IF NO EXE.XML ALREADY EXISTS: Just copy and paste the exe.xml from {YourDrive}:\User\{username}\appdata\roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator to {YourDrive}:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache and it will work. You're done IF EXE.XML IS ALREADY PRESENT: We need to merge them together by opening them up and copying the relevant section from the Honeycomb EXE.XML into the existing EXE.XML. This is a common file where all .EXEs are listed that need to be started up with MSFS. EXAMPLE: MY EXSITING EXE.XML <SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0"> <Descr>SimConnect</Descr> <Filename>SimConnect.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Launch.Addon> <Name>Logitech Microsoft Flight Simulator Plugin</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Path>{YourDrive}:\Program Files\Logitech\Microsoft Flight Simulator Plugin\LogiMicrosoftFlightSimulator.exe</Path> <CommandLine>-r</CommandLine> </Launch.Addon> </SimBase.Document> EXE.XML CREATED BY HONEYCOMB DRIVER <SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0"> <Descr>Auto launch external applications on MSFS start</Descr> <Filename>exe.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Launch.Addon> <Name>AFCBridge</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Path>{YourDrive}:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\community\AFC_Bridge\bin\AFC_Bridge.exe</Path> </Launch.Addon> </SimBase.Document> WHAT IT LOOKS LIKE NOW IVE COMBINED THE TWO TOGETHER <SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0"> <Descr>SimConnect</Descr> <Filename>SimConnect.xml</Filename> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Launch.Addon> <Name>Logitech Microsoft Flight Simulator Plugin</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Path>{YourDrive}:\Program Files\Logitech\Microsoft Flight Simulator Plugin\LogiMicrosoftFlightSimulator.exe</Path> <CommandLine>-r</CommandLine> </Launch.Addon> <Launch.Addon> <Name>AFCBridge</Name> <Disabled>False</Disabled> <Path>{YourDrive}:\Users\{username}\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\community\AFC_Bridge\bin\AFC_Bridge.exe</Path> </Launch.Addon> </SimBase.Document> Thanks, Mark.

Thanks for your thourough explanation...confirms my thought, that there might be a pathing issue Steam vs. MS Store version. We will fix it in the installer.

It illuminates when it's off and extinguishes when you turn it on. I found it's because the ConditionValue is set to 0 instead of 1. I've changed it on mine so it reads =1 and now it seems to be working as expected. { "ByteIndex": 3, "BitIndex": 2, "Condition": "A:PITOT HEAT, bool", "ConditionValue": "=0", "EN": "Anti-Ice", "DE": "Anti-Eis" } Cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me it made more sense to remind me to switch on the pitot heat. And also the default G1000s give you a warning for that. Thats why I wrote it that way. But of course you can adjust it to your liking, as you have already found out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft BenBaron 287 Posted December 22, 2020 Aerosoft Share Posted December 22, 2020 There is now also a new installer available for download, which should fix the pathing issue leading to a successful autostart of the LED driver.
