Hi all,
I developped, thanks to Mobiflight, a basic buttonbox that I use with FWB A32NX, Toliss A319 and ZIBO 737-800 (FCU/MCP, APU and lights).
Is there a way to launch everything, that is MSFS2020 or X-Plane 11, ZHSI, X-Planes, switch A319 and Zibo XPUICOffsets.cfg and last but not least MSConnector with a batch file including a line such as MFConnector.exe A32NX.mcc, MFConnector.exe A319.mcc or MFConnector.exe Zibo.mcc ?
As a beginner, I hope this question is not too naive.
Thank you for your help.

Hi,

if using FSUIPC (what i assume) you can tell it to start other programs as well.

E.g. for MF insert in ...\modules\fsuipc4.ini under [PROGRAMS]

RunIf1=CLOSE,D:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Modules\Mobiflight\MFConnector.exe

Hi

Kai“s solution only work for FSUIPC users .... So its not 100% what you need.

1. Batch files work.
You can simply build a BAT that start e.g. Sim, Vatsim, TS2 and also Mobiflight

2. Parameter in the Mobiflight EXE .
You can define e.g. if MF should sart in AutoRun ..... Or you can also tell MF to load a special file after Startup ( instead of the last used)

Badly i not remember the Syntax and can not find the related topic here or in Discord.

it was something like :
MfConnector.exe -filename.mcc

May it was a Space or Slash instead of Dash ..... May the filename must or should not include ".mcc" part.
Also the PATH is optional.... Without path the mcc must be in same folder like the EXE .... Else you need to say something like
MfConnector.exe -c:/folder/subfolder/filename.mcc

*****
sorry i can not give you the correct solution.... May you like to test.... I will also have a look onto it the next time !

UPDATE:

Sebastian means....
