Plugins

MSFS Community directory​

SimBox will automatically detect your MSFS community directory. In very rare cases, you may need to manually set it.

note

SimBox may not show the proper community directory if you have multiple MSFS installations (2020 & 2024). In such cases, you may need to manually set the community directory.

Steam MSFS2024​

C:\Users[Your Username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator 2024\Packages\Community

MS Store MSFS2024​

C:\Users[Your Username]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.Limitless_[randomCharacters]\LocalCache\Packages\Community

Installation​

If you're using MSFS2020, there is one mandatory plugin to install. Hit "Install" button next to "SimBox Connect" to put that plugin into MSFS Community dir.

MSFS 2020​

Due to limitations of MSFS SDK, we decided to create our own plugin for MSFS 2020. That brings much more possibilities in data exchange with simulator.

Usage​

To enable plugin just click it in MSFS 2020 toolbar. Note, that there is no window that will pop up. You can easily disable plugin if you don't need it by clicking again.

X-PLANE 11/12​

There is no plugins yet available for X-PLANE. SimBox uses default X-PLANE API.
