. Those files have to be readable by your user. Typically they are owned by group input or such so if you add your user to that group then it will work.swift has not yet been adapted to use Vulkan. If you have enabled Vulkan then you won't see any aircraft.
use the 64bit version
make sure XSwiftBus
is installed, and it is the correct version XSwiftBus
and swift client require to have the same version)
Make sure other pilot clients are uninstalled (as those most likely interfere with swift). Disabling the plugins might me NOT enough, remove them from the plugins folder.
CSL files need to be inside the XPlane
folder, it is advisable to avoid spaces and special characters in the file paths
disable other simulator plugins using multiplayer planes (such as other pilot clients, or traffic tools) may conflict with swift. Or entirely move them out of the plugin folder if you have problems such as not working animations (gear down), see here under XPlane.
for BlueBell
models apply the vertical offset fix (make
sure to do this correctly and NOT ending up with cascaded directories)
troubleshooting and
use the 32bit version for FSX, the 64bit version for P3D.
P3D: to use external model directories (not in SimObjects
)
add this directory
FSX: make sure the terrain probe is installed, see Installation of the FSX/P3D terrain probe
Enable SimConnect SB4 offsets settings in the driver settings if you want to use XPDR updates from PMDG and other aircraft
If you cannot connect swift/P3D (FSX): If you run P3D/FSX as "Admin", run swift as "Admin"
make sure FSUIPC is installed, swift needs FSUIPC to work properly
If you run FS9/FSUIPC as "Admin", run swift as "Admin"
Since Windows Update 1909 the auto connect to the simulator does NOT work anymore, see Connecting FS9 manually through multiplayer
Consider the gnd. elevation recording: FS9 elevation
If swift is connected with your simulator, you shall see the simulator LED as on
If NOT, make sure your simulator driver is enabled, see Configure / select the used simulator, P3D version FSX version
If the simulator does NOT connect, sometime it helps to un-check and check again the simulator (simulator settings)
Simulator disconnects: Do not run core and standalone GUI at the same time.
