ShrewsburyFC 215 Posted February 10, 2012 Report Share Posted February 10, 2012 This may seem a bit of a silly question, but what does FSUIPC actually do? Thanks in advance. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 FSUIPC provides a programming interface by which other programs running in parallel can extract data from FS and can send data and/or commands to FS. Link to post Share on other sites
rob16584 42 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 I assume that if I upgrade to the latest and greatest it won't affect the add-ons that use the previous version? Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,487 Posted February 11, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Sam, FSUIPC = Flight Simulator Universal Inter-Process Communication so basically what John said! I have never had a problem with backwards compatibility Rob. Link to post Share on other sites
pacinka 0 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 So this can be installed right over the old version? (no need to uninstall first?) Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Most likely it would not need to be uninstalled. FSUIPC runs as a module, i.e. it only consists of a dll file that is dropped into the FS folder tree in the appropriate place. Once that's done, it runs as part of FS, not as a stand-alone program. I'm pretty sure that makes any kind of uninstall a moot issue. John Link to post Share on other sites
Tim_A 996 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 I'm sure it'll say in the readme what the correct procedure is. Link to post Share on other sites
pacinka 0 Posted February 11, 2012 Report Share Posted February 11, 2012 Okay, thanks! It worked fine. Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,487 Posted February 12, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2012 You're not mad Mike! I have been running this for years and always just run the installer and all has been well. I have the registered version as well so I can calibrate / assign my USB quadrant and other devices correctly and they always work after an update, Link to post Share on other sites
