Please make sure you have the XMLtools for the sim version you are running enabled during install .

XMLTools.dll will be in the main fs or p3d folder and an entry in DLL.xml found in \AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX

reads like the following

<Launch.Addon>
<Name>XMLTools</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>XMLTools.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>

If not run the XMLtools installer inside the DH2C aircraft folder for the sim in question xmltools_201 installer.exe is for FSX

So, go to your user's AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3 folder and check whether DLL.XML is present or not.

If it is not, and you have other users defined in your machine, go to each one's AppData\Roaming folder and check both for Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3 folder and inside that, DLL.XML

let me know the results

I'm experiencing the same problem. The dll.xml file is listed in my c:\users\myusername\appdata\roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3d v3\ but the xmltools code is no present in the dll.xml file. Can I add it manually or does it need to be added using the tool?

I should note, I've never had any problems with dll's being added to the this file.....this is a first for me. Any help is greatly appreciated.

If you have DLL.XML file then it is easy to manually add XMLTools entry.

First of all, check that you have XMLTools3D.dll (or eventually XMLTools.dll) in P3D's main folder.

Then, add these lines to your DLL.XML, at the bottom :

( For XMLTools3D)

<Launch.Addon>
<Name>XMLTools3D</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>XMLTools3D.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>

( For XMLTools)

<Launch.Addon>
<Name>XMLTools</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>XMLTools.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>


That should work.

Can you send me a PM with your DLL.XML file?
Besides, do you have XMLTools3D.dll in P3D's main folder (NOT modules folder)?

Thanks,

It seems your DLL.XML is ok.

Now, please check in Control Panel/Programs & Features/Uninstall a program, that these Redistributables are present:

Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Redistributable
Microsoft Visual C++ 2008 Redistributable x86
Microsoft Visual C++ 2010 x86 Redistributable
Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 x86 Redistributable

Here you have the links:

2005:
https://www.microsoft.com/es-ar/downloa ... px?id=3387

2008:
https://www.microsoft.com/es-ar/downloa ... aspx?id=29

2010:
https://www.microsoft.com/es-ar/downloa ... px?id=5555

2015:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/downloa ... x?id=53587

Start with 2005 version, 2008 Version might be left appart if the Beaver works fine with the rest installed.
