The Join FS plugin does not install X-Plane

Post by Boldawes »

Hello everybody! Sorry for my English, I don't know it very well.
I do not have the Join FS plugin for X-Plane installed. There is such a plugin in the plugins folder. And in the game there is no plugin menu, nor is it in the Admin Plugins section. And rather because of this, I do not connect to the simulator, and the orange Simulator button is lit. Please, help! Thanks!

Hi,

Did you install the plugin using the button in the JoinFS settings?

Make sure you specify the root X-Plane folder.

Afterwards you should see a file called <x-plane>\Resources\plugins\JoinFS\64\win.xpl

If it still fails then try installing the C++ module using the button in the JoinFS settings.

Yes, he did it all. The plugin was installed through the settings. The path to the folder is correct. It is in the plugin folder, and I see the win.xpl file. I installed the C ++ library, but it still doesn't do anything.

Anything in <x-plane>\Log.txt referring to JoinFS?

What version of X-Plane are you using?

Do you have other plugins installed under the plugins folder that do work?

This is the first time that I have heard of this problem. Double check your folder names, case sensitivity etc.

Other plugins work great. The path is also specified correctly, XPUIPC is installed. Don't know what it could be

Works on the latest version of X-Plane 11 and has done for a few years.

Could you try disabling other plugins temporarily to see if X-Plane then picks up JoinFS.

Keep checking the Log.txt because that will have a message showing when it successfully starts the JoinFS plugin.

Log.txt does not mention the JoinFS plugin at all. It is in the plugins folder. I don't know how to add a screenshot

Is it in a '64' sub-folder?

What is the size of the win.xpl file?
