I just wanted to say, after 2 weeks of trying to get this to work, I give up.  it's an impossible product. 

Sad to say, it looked VERY interesting, but it's just not with the time and hassle. 

Captain Sim, please develop an EASIER way for 3rd party integration - instead of just "Referre to SDK" for your responses.  The SDK explains NOTHING.

I haven't flown in the past two weeks, just because of trying to get this impossible product to function.

Sorry Captain Sim, but until you include an auto installer for ALL aircraft that you might have in FS, I'm not going back to it.

Thanks to all the other members here who tried to help me out - to a point, until I was told I was being "Spoon Fed, and they knew what was wrong...."

Bruce,

Yes - it was in the Aircraft folder.  There was literally nothing at all in the Panel folder.

It's just an impossible venture - I don't know why I can't get it working.

Sorry if I seemed to come on strong about it, its been almost a week with out flying, which is what the sim should really be about.  

Each of those models as well also had the XML file from the original aircraft folder.  

If there's any other theories, I'm welcome to it, but it's just utterly impossible for me, sadly -  A shame, I really wanted to enjoy this.

Again, apologies coming off strongly, I just needed to know what I was doing wrong, and wish I was told in the beginning, that's all.

By the way - update - reinstalled it, and also went with your directions again, it now works.  Thanks SO MUCH For your help.  Now I know what to do on future installs! Can't wait to use this now.

John,
sorry to hear that.
But believe me, it is possible, moreover some people already did it.
We've provided the easiest way to make a mod: one xml file configuration. But the mod-person must have advanced knowledge of bacis FSX SDK, outstanding attentiveness and patience. It's not for everyone.

i purchased this and its not working with my 3rd party aircraft
i would like to request a refund
its not usable

Hello All,

I just bought this program today, and I'm having a big problem. I've only gotten one Helicopter to work. and even then that Aircraft only worked once. Since then every Helicopter I've "Armed" using the loader has loaded with the rounds remaining counter showing 0000. I've tried reloading the aircraft with no luck. I've tried reinstalling the program all together, and all I come up with is 0000's.

The 2d panel and HUD show up just fine, but there's no ammo. I haven't done any tweaking of  XML's or config files. Just set it up like the instructions said. All of the Jet's work and reload just fine, but the helicopters refuse to arm. Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong?

Where is the third party mods section so we can see what's out there? 

I click on that old link and get "Insufficient Rights"  Now I have it in my F16, I want to do others - thanks in advance....

There are numerous references in this thread to using SDK.  I installed SDK but can't get it to open.  On a different forum I found this link about correct installation of SDK: http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=SDK_Installation_(FSX)
Can I get an opinion from CS and other simmers on whether or not these multiple steps are the definitive solution to getting it to open?

rservice,
No I'm referring to the FSX SDK, completely different.
