help....my fsx acc will not connect to hd macro.
hd macro works fine every were else.
Latest ver hd macro installed.
I'm running windows 7 64bit

What's the message about SimConnect.dll in HidMacros status bar (bottom of main window)?

SC Not Connected Scripts compiled SimConnedt.dll hidmacros.xml

fixed sc connect...
but fsx macros on 2nd keyboard only work when hidmacro is in front.
when i switch to fsx i lose them. switch back to hidmacros there back.

I know that this thread is old, as I have the same problem I thought there was no need to create a new one

I cant connect, I'm using the latest version of FSX (FSX:SE)
It says SC Not Connected ; scripts compiles ; SimConnected.dll Loaded



What am I doing wrong?

Thanks,
ToFran

SE means Steam Edition?
I'm not sure if there were some changes in SDK.
Anyone having experience with Hidmacros and this FSX version?

Thanks for the reply!
Yes the Steam Edition
I bought it because Dovetail said that they will continue supporting the game and improving the experience for the users with patches/updates (2 updates and counting ) and because it was only 4.99€

Can the problem be that Hidmacros is not detecting the installation path?

Continue our great work!

PS: I don't know if this helps but here is the changelog

Don't think so, I would look for SDK changes in steam edition.

Anyway, until HidMacros works with Xplane 10 I don't plan development activity any more .

You are probably right,
I know that you are really busy and you don't have time to develop
I completely understand, but it hurts seeing you leaving.
And thank you that you published the code @ GitHub (Although I'm not able to compile it)

I think that the difference between the Steam Edition and the acceleration should be minimal (Regarding SC), but I have no idea if it's too difficult/time consuming patch that.

Admin, you should only develop only what you think is necessary, and do what you like to do.

Again thank you,
ToFran

AFAIR SDK was only included in FSX Deluxe.
I had this version so never faced problems with SimConnect.
I don't expect there would be some big code changes because of steam edition. That might be only question of new SDK so maybe re-building would work.
If you have difficulties to compile HidMacros from sources I can do that, but has no time to investigate around FSX version.

So you can google a bit, find out how's it with SDK, SimConnect and steam edition and maybe have some demo running.
Then if you find root cause, let me know how to fix it and I can build SE version of HidMacros
