Where do I get my plugins

#1 Post by wpc888 »

Hi,
Just bought my ipad version of the Air Manager, excited, but don't know how to get the plugins downloaded for use with my desktop sims. Could any one help?
Thanks.

Download the plugins from this link(all sims and operating systems are in a single archive):

http://siminnovations.com/wiki/files/Plugins_2_1_2.zip

Unzip and install the plugin for your operating system and simulator (FSX/P3D use the same one) in the computer running the flight sim (X-Plane, P3D or FSX)

For P3D / FSX it involves double clicking the installer
For X-Plane you need to put the Air Plugin folder in X-Planes plugin folder(which is in the Resources folder)

Here is a link to the complete instructions: http://siminnovations.com/wiki/index.ph ... stallation

Thanks for the prompt response. It was helpful.
I think I have properly installed both the X-plane plugin and FSX/FSX-SE installers. Somehow the iPad still does not communicate with the desktop sim after I selected my gauges, and when I tried loading the Airfoillabs C172SP, and the Carenado C152II and A2A C172SP, powered up, no response from the desktop when each of them was launched. The files are in the right places when I looked at my AppData files. Furthermore Xplane net connection was sent successfully, but there is no movement either

I wonder if you have any suggestions. Curious about what gets into the way. Thanks again for your attention.

Did you set the IP address and select the correct simulator?

Checked everything again, found that I used the wrong IP address, using the one sent "successfully" to my IPad in the Net Connection menu of the Xplane menu. It should be the Desktop IP instead, problem solved. Thanks for posting a question to me. Sincerely. :D
