Thanks. It's been a long time coming and perhaps not everything is addressed or covered but it will have to do for now. The seasoned vets who are used to VA already know most of it and the in's and outs but it's the new or unfamiliar guys to the VA stuff that need some assistance when problems arise or they are stuck trying to get going. Hopefully it will be a help.

Thanks so much for the new manual. I couldn't get hold of the "bidding" process, but the manual directed me in the right way and now it's even easier than flight-by-flight.

Norm,

Thank you for the Cigars manual.  I just used it to reload cigars on my FSX Steam setup.

Hey Norm, I can't seem to download the CB manual.  Recently upgraded my computer and can't connect CB to my sim.  Don't know what I'm doing wrong, thought the manual would help.  Any help is appreciated  ::)

John!!! Where have yoou been? lol

Ok here is a brief step by step the fast version:

(Manual here - Misty Flying Club - http://www.mistymooringsflyingclub.com/
Sign-on.. Go to Downloads tab.. then > Cigar Box (KaCARSII) (3) |
(the manual only is the 3rd item).

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok..  Uninstall then Reinstall Cigar Box

You require the correct version of FSUIPC for your sim  from here>> http://www.fsuipc.com/
FSUIPC is a required to be executed (run and left on).. as it connects cigar box to your sim..
I think you went to MSFS didn't you? So you need FSUIPC v7.3.25,,, install .. (There is a combination shortcut which executes MSFS and FSUIPC at the same time.. but best to run MSFS first then FSUIPC (Run them separately.. (unless you use FSUIPC to configure your controllers.).

Set up cigar box to be run as admin all the time. (Edit the properties of the shortcut)..
Also set the cigar box kacars exe to be a virus scanner exempt or excluded).
That's it.. if all is correct you should be able to connect cigar box to your sim.
 
Let me know how it goes John.
