Howdy
Anyone have Smartcopilot and Windows 8.1 working together? I recently installed 8.1 and Smartcopilot no longer loads on sim start, its not in the plugins list.
I downloaded it again and copied the licence file into the plugin folder. Any ideas? Every other plugin works just fine.

No issues here. Anything in your log.txt complaining about it?

Thanks, never thought to look in the log.
There was an Error Code = 126 : The specified module could not be found
This led me to here

install the necessary Visual C++ package from here

It did, thanks.
It was the only issue I encountered so far with 8.1, and it was not really an 8.1 issue I guess.
Everything working very well, I dunno if its placebo but the colors in X-Plane 10 look more vivid than before.
Maybe the GPU driver is optimized better for 8.1, I dunno.
