    Sorry for the slow reply - I've been busy and haven't worked on this project in a while. I messed around with it some more and I don't know what the problem is but here's the symptoms:

    • Most of the time the window shows zero messages and most of the window is blank. I haven't seen this change mid-flight but I can get it to "reset" (and behave as below) by pressing ESC to get to the menu screen and then clicking "start" to resume flying.
    • About one in every 5-6 launches (or "resets" via the menu) the window will periodically (every 1-2 seconds) show a page of messages for around 1 second before blanking again. This continues until I "reset" by backing to the menu or re-launch the game and then it's another 1 in 5 or 6 chance that it will be working.
    • Sometimes (every 10 times that it actually shows messages maybe?) it will work for 2-4 seconds without blanking but then it begins blanking again as normal.

    What I have tried:

    • Verifying my installation through Steam
    • Deleting the built dll (launching again to ensure that what I removed was what was actually running) and then re-built it from a freshly extracted copy only changing the build target (Windows 10) and the output directory (I use a non-standard location for my documents folder and the build path uses <user>/Documents).
    • Downloading to the Windows 8.1 SDK so that the build target remained unchanged.
    • Turning down my graphics all the way.
    • Using both fullscreen and windowed modes.
    • Changing aircraft and location.
    • Using training mode.

    Next I will try:

    • Full re-install

    Any other ideas?

    Hello!

    I downloaded the SDK tool and I've had problems trying to get the external dll sample project to run.

    I followed the instructions in this thread. I opened the solution in Visual Studio 2017, changed the target to Windows 10 (I've tried several different targets), changed the debugging command and working directory to the location of my AFS2 .exe

    When I try to run the DLL I get a Steam error.

    I looked up this error and found the same error for other games but nothing specific to AFS2. They suggested things like running as administrator and restarting Steam but nothing has fixed the problem. I've also tried moving the location of the Steam install.

    When I launch AFS2 either through Steam or directly from the .exe it works fine (but obviously no sample .dll)

    Any ideas I can try to get this working?

    Here's the output when I try to run:
