Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020
Start Sequence with ProSim

Remarks:

Updated in January, 2025.
ProSimB738 is set for FSUIPC.
FSUIPC, Aerosoft VDGS Driver, noolaero-module-vdgs are now started by MSFS 2020 (see EXE.xml)

On the mini computer, we use Windows Startup to start ProSim Audio v2 (Cockpit sounds) when the computer starts.

On the main computer, the one where the simulator is running, we use a Windows Commands file (.BAT) to insure the various programs and addons are always started in the correct order:

@echo off C: SET prosim=V3
SET UseLanPC=YES
