So I double checked the files that you asked again.

Please see output of both which seem correct based on my installation.

OC4BAv5_path.ini

[Install info]
Path to OC4BAv5 programs=C:\Program Files (x86)\IOCards\SIOC

add-on.xml

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><SimBase.Document id="add-on" version="4,0" Type="AddOnXml"><AddOn.Name>QW787_OCP4787</AddOn.Name><AddOn.Description>OpenCockpits driver for QualityWings B787</AddOn.Description><AddOn.Component><Category>DLL</Category><Path>C:\Program Files (x86)\IOCards\SIOC\QW787_Client.dll</Path></AddOn.Component></SimBase.Document>

I started P3D with a 737, then closed and re-ran with the 787. SIOC does not start and when checking the sioc.ini file, it has retained the driver for the 737:

[SIOC]
IOCP_port=8092
IOCP_timeout=4000
Minimized=Yes
toggle_delay=20
[IOCARDS MODULE]
IOCard_disable=No
IOCard_LPT=No
[FSUIPC MODULE]
FSUipcdisable=No
FSUipcRefresh=60
[IOCP CLIENTS MODULES]
IOCPini_delay=3000
IOCPclient0_disable=no
IOCPclient0_host=localhost
IOCPclient0_port=8099
IOCPclient1_disable=yes
IOCPclient1_host=localhost
IOCPclient1_port=8092
[SOUND MODULE]
Sound_disable=Yes
Volume=100
[*]
[PMDG B737]
CONFIG_FILE=C:\Program Files (x86)\IOCards\SIOC\OCP4NGX_v5.1.ssi
MASTER=15,15,1,33
MASTER=7,7,1,35
MASTER=13,13,1,17

It would seem this is not being overwritten as expected when choosing the 787.

Earlier in this thread I highlighted that since you asked me to swap out the old QW787_Client.dll driver with the new version, I informed you that everytime I now start P3D, I get an eventID box that comes up twice as below. If i just accept and click 'OK', I am able to proceed with my PMDG aircraft. If I remove the new .dll file out of the SIOC folder, I do not get the 2 'eventID' boxes that pop up.

The EVent message you get is there as the QW787_Client.dll receives an event from the 787 that prevents the client to continue and startup SIOC.

why you receive this event from the 787 I do not now.

Do you have a "clean" installation of the 787 airplanes?

Are you starting the 787 from a saved scenario setup or in a not normal/default configuration?

There seems to me that your 787 sends an event message that crashes the client. I do not have any reports from other users that this is happening to them.

I will send you a new modified client tomorrow that handles the Events from the 787 in another way.

Apologies again for the delay but I am working away until 3/2/20 so not able to test.

My QW787 installation is clean and works well outside of Opencockpits hardware and I have only started the 787 from normal default startup.

Just to let you know, I didn't receive an updated client yesterday but don't worry if you are still working on it.
