Hi Martin,

Are you using the latest version of JoinFS?

Did you install the plugin specifying the root X-Plane folder?

Are you still in the X-Plane menus or have you actually started a flight before connecting JoinFS?

You need to start a flight in X-Plane before connecting with JoinFS.

Can you see the JoinFS plugin in the X-Plane plugin list?

If installed correctly from File|Settings the JoinFS plugin should show in the plugin list. Don't forget to specify your root X-Plane folder when installing the plugin.

It won't appear directly in the plugin menu. You need to check the plugin admin list, that top option in the screenshot there.

In the JoinFS Settings, try entering '127.0.0.1' for the X-Plane address.

It isn't enough to just have x-plane running. You need to choose a flight config (aircraft/location/etc) and enter the flight. Once in the cockpit it will connect (or click on SIMULATOR)
