JoinFS does not see MSFS

[Viking01]

Hi Peter,

I downloaded and installed the latest version. I have the same problem as another user, MSFS is not being picked up.
The Simulator button is red, when I click on it, it turns orange, nothing on the View-Monitor window.

Version 1.4.34 picks up MSFS ok, all buttons green.

I also use P3DV5, it works perfectly with 1.4.35.

Which folder should I select for the model search? My path to the community folder is:
K:\WpSystem\S-1-5-21-1906694941-2733054501-1093960862-1000\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Community

Thanks!

Gunter

************** JIT-Debuggen **************
Um das JIT-Debuggen (Just-In-Time) zu aktivieren, muss in der
Konfigurationsdatei der Anwendung oder des Computers
(machine.config) der jitDebugging-Wert im Abschnitt system.windows.forms festgelegt werden.
Die Anwendung muss mit aktiviertem Debuggen kompiliert werden.

Zum Beispiel:

<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />

Wenn das JIT-Debuggen aktiviert ist, werden alle nicht behandelten
Ausnahmen an den JIT-Debugger gesendet, der auf dem
Computer registriert ist, und nicht in diesem Dialogfeld behandelt.


On a further attempt, the Simulator Button stayed orange, but here is the monitor readout:

Hi Gunter,

Just trying to work out which folder should be scanned, if at all. Could you try switching off 'model scan on connection' in the JoinFS settings. Then restart and see if the button goes green. Seems odd that the output you posted says "Connected to simulator". The button should go green at that point, unless the window isn't getting refreshed for some reason.

Hi Peter,
I downloaded V1.4.36, unticked the model search and now I get a green simulator button!

Do you need any further information? I'm happy to help with whatever I can do.

Cheers

Great, thanks. I'm just putting together a new version now. Given all the issues with scanning models in MSFS2020 I've decided to move completely to the automated model discovery instead (for MSFS2020). It actually makes things less complicated if you don't need to worry about scanning for new models all the time.

Great, sounds promising!

Thanks for all your effort!!!
