smartCARS 3 | XPUIPC for X-Plane 11/12

In order to fly with Walker Air Transport using smartCARS 3 and X-Plane 11 or 12, you are required to install XPUIPC plugin and set smartCARS 3 accordingly. The UDP option in smartCARS 3 has a bug and will not record your livery, and as a result you will have rejected flights every time. The way our virtual airline operates and the autonomous systems we have in place, we are not able to manually approve each and every pilot's flight because of this bug.

Please follow these instructions and if you have any questions reach out to us on Discord or by email.

Lastly, we STRONGLY urge our pilot base to submit tickets to TFDi and/or reply to our bug report here: https://github.com/invernyx/smartcars-3-bugs/issues/351
