    Hi,

    if you are talking about the 'latest' update posted yesterday ("one xml to suit them all") - Odyssey 1.1 plugin update, you need to download this latest plugin and install it after unpatching your existing one, as now the plugin has a WMI query code included to be able to select the appropriate pointers for the game you are playing. The xml for either Horizons OR Odyssey is included within this latest plugin.
    It works a treat -

    Thanks Kev,
    Yeah, seems to be working now.
    I've had to lower my graphics settings in Odyssey and I hate that window it makes you play in while on foot, any reason it can't be full screen as actually the performance is good during on foot sections.
    I've ordered one of those yaw2 motion devices which hopefully will give me much better range of motion than my current 2dof setup which is great for racing but I feel this game can be much better with 4dof or even more.

    Glad you are up and running again.
    I can't advise about the 'on-foot' part - I haven't bothered with it (if i want fps I play quake arena - lol). I prefer to 'fly'.
    4-DOF will be good compared with roll and pitch 2-DOF. I went from 2, to 3 (with yaw) then to the full 6 and haven't looked back since. Up/down and sway really make the guts feel the motion in combo with the rest. Take care and have fun!

    @Wagnard seems todays update has changed the memory location again, it would be nice if they’d expose telemetry early so we don’t lose movement every time they do an update!

    Sorry, I'm a little confused here: is there a whole, new plugin?

    Or just new XMLs with pointers for both EO and EH??

    Or is it both??? :p

    Same plugin as last update with updated XML.
    Reason I didn't post the XML alone is that the new XML with both edh and Edo will not work on older plugin. Most users did not download the previous updated plugin so no reason to post only an XML that will not work for 80%+ users

    agreed - I did actually install the newer plugin the other day so just unzipped this latest one, extracted just the xml and swapped it in simtools 'local' appdata. Up and running again in no time without having to redo the whole plugin.

    Here is the XML for Odyssey update 3 . Will only work if you had a recent previous plugin.

    The new plugin and the XML I posted contain both. Current and future release include both.
    For your information Pointers for horizons didn't change with odyssey update 3.

    LOL! Thanx for the quick response.

    I deleted my question because I found the answer in one of your earlier posts.

    Thanx for all the hard work! :cheers

    Yesterday I tested the Odyssey game with the plugin. It worked fine, even though the game didn't. Choppy, no frame rate, the game was almost impossible to play and I was push by my rig in every dirrection because of the those bad frame rate.

    Yeah the framerate is kinda low for Odyssey.
    It's not that critical on my side to push me on every direction.

    Also to inform others, new update 4 is out and of course pointers update is needed. (I'm on it)
