Title: [SOLVED] No AIG
Post by: odaber on October 04, 2022, 04:07:08 PM
I use P3D v4.5. The AIG is impossible to use. When opening AIGTC for a flight I get this message when I open the Traffic Controller: " AIGTC is unable to find the current SimConnect-Connection. Make sure you are connected before you inject traffic!" Earlier versions had a way of directing the AIGTC to the SimConnect map. How do I solve this problem?

Kaiii,

I had the same problem. After the last upgrade 0.5.1.4. I had to use the workaround. I copied the right simconnect version P3Dv45HF3 from the AIM directory to the AIGTC directory. After starting AIGTC again, it works like a charm. There is something wrong in the upgrade software. The wrong version of simconnect is copied to the AIGTC directory.

Kaiii,

The previous version from 0.5.1.2 off had the same problem. Another forum member introduced the "copy from AIM directory workaround". So that's why I mentioned the copy method here. Hope you can reproduce the problem in the update software.

since I no longer have P3Dv4 installed it is hard to test at the moment. But I will force the use of the v4 SimConnect from now on

Sorry, I'm lost in tecnicalities. What do I have to do? Where do I find the right simconnect version P3Dv45HF3 (?) from the AIM (?) directory and how to put it into to the AIGTC directory? As you understand, I'm not that tecnical, only a user. Thank you all to help me find a way to reenter the fabolous world of AIG.

Yours sincerely
Odaber

Okay. I think I got it.

Open your AIM folder. In that folder open the "Resources" and then the "SimConnect" and finally the "V45HF3".

Copy the "LockheedMartin.. dll" file in that folder.

Open your AIGTC folder and paste the file in there. Accept when it asks to overwrite. After that, try AIGTC.

Remember, just in case, to take a backup of the one already in the AIGTC folder.

I think the reason behind this is, that only the P3Dv5 Simconnect file is included in the newest versions of AIGTC. The older v4 is not included.

Ok here's my problem: In my AIG_AIManager 1.1/Resources/AIM there is no "SimConnect" nor the "V45HF3" nor "LockheedMartin.. dll", or am I looking in a wrong map?

Title: Re: No AIG
Post by: johanfrc on October 04, 2022, 09:14:08 PM
When I write AIM it's the AIG Manager folder. Simply because it's way easier to write it that way.

I never use the AIM folder you are looking in, as it's an internal thing that normally not be of interest for you.

So you need to look in your AIG_AIManager 1.1/Resources/SimConnect folder for the V4HF3 folder. That's the one.

Now we are to the point; I have no SimConnect folder for the V4HF3 folder in my AIG_AIManager 1.1/Resources/. What to do??

I dont have V45HF3 either, I just copied and pasted the file form V45HF2 and it worked again.

Problem is that some people don't have the v4 SimConnect files at all. They were removed from AIG Manager at some point, and is not included in newer versions of AIG Manager. Only if you have had AIG Manager for a very long time (no idea when they weren't included anymore), you can do this trick. Otherwise you have to get the hands of the files somehow.

But I'm talking to Kai about it, and we'll see what we can do.

I agree, can the needed file(s) be provided in a post or pm to those of us who are in need?

I do not have the v4 Simconnect files in my install, either.

Send me a PM and I'll send you a link to the file needed.

But if you can, please wait for the weekend, where Kai will hopefully be able to do some kind of update to include the v4 simconnect :)

Gonna love the PM system. Only got one message and nothing else. Maybe they will arrive later, maybe not..

Otherwise. In the weekend there might quite possible be an update that includes the v4 SDK too.
