Polwa Posted December 23, 2014 Report Share Posted December 23, 2014 Hello, Recently I've purchased the plane mentioned above. I own the SE of FSX. However, after installing it, the gauges are all messed up and the 2D cockpit doesn't work. I am aware this problem is mentioned in the FAQ, but I doubt that it's a problem with a FRESH installation of FSX ( I've even formatted my computer, hoping it would help ). Please help me, I have no idea what I'm doing wrong. http://i57.photobucket.com/albums/g203/spankmeairlines/FSXgaugegraphicserror.jpg (link to the mentioned graphical error) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobflight Posted December 24, 2014 Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 if your panel looks like what is pictured it is corrupt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polwa Posted December 24, 2014 Author Report Share Posted December 24, 2014 (edited) I know, but I've tried reinstalling it multiple times and it still doesn't work. I've even formatted my PC to make sure there was nothing left of the ,,corrupt" FSX installation, and yet it still doesn't work. Maybe the installer is corrupt? Will there be an update for the Steam Edition? I have Windows 8.1, if anything. Edited December 24, 2014 by Polwa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sr20aviator Posted December 26, 2014 Report Share Posted December 26, 2014 I purchased it today and also running FSX SE. All I get it black boxes where the gauges should be. Ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelThere_Vic Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Do you have SP2 installed? Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLCoates1 Posted January 5, 2015 Report Share Posted January 5, 2015 Yours shows corrupted which means yours is at least working. I don't even get corrupted images on mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan: did you approve the gauges during install? FS will ask you to do this . did you approve the gauges the first time you loaded the plane (ie started the scenario)? FS will ask you to do this.

FS will ask you to do this . did you approve the gauges the first time you loaded the plane (ie started the scenario)? FS will ask you to do this. Unfortunately, it never asked. It only asked if I wanted to load the dll when I selected the plane. Here is the full problem I am having with the aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelThere_Vic Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Please reinstall the plane and approve the gauges. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLCoates1 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Please reinstall the plane and approve the gauges. I have done that. It still won't work. I don't get the pop ups asking me to run the gauges, I only got the popups to run the actual plane itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polwa Posted January 6, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Managed to get it working by accident. Just kept reinstalling untill it worked. Thanks for the help everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLCoates1 Posted January 6, 2015 Report Share Posted January 6, 2015 Found the fix on mine as well. You need to locate Steam\SteamApps\common\FSX\SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\LegacyInterfacesFrom there, you need to click on each of the 3 folders, and run the SimConnect installer in all of them. It takes about 5 seconds for each. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
