When I try, nothing happens. Then in the store when I was looking at FSX add-ons, I found it there, but it costs $19.99. What I also noticed is that somehow the links to both of them are exactly the same, I don't know how that is possible. So I am confused, is it free or not? If it is free, how to I get it?

NOT ALLOWING INSTALL OF SHUTTLE https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1640248750/2#2 CAPTAIN SIM FORUM/Space Shuttle https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1640248750/2#2 Fri, 24 Dec 2021 09:02:38 GMT Hi.....and thank you very much for your reply....the ONLY one! LOL I tried your suggestions but still no luck. This is very frustrating as I have never had this problem before. I put the installation file into the FSX folder and then excluded it, along with the entire FSX folder from ANY action by Kaspersky, still no luck. Same thing happens if I put the installation file on the desktop or anywhere else. I DID run it as the administrator. I received an e-mail from Captain Sim today telling me that they no longer support 32 bit sims. I already know that, however what I don't understand is that I am not even getting to the point of installation using my order no. I even tried getting an offline activation and that doesn't even work. That method brings up a window telling me that it basically can't find what I'm looking for....an activation code. Generating a file for offline installation works OK but, again, I can't get to the point where I would insert that file. I am using Windows 7 Professional 64bit, I5 3330 processor with 16 gb of RAM with a GTX 660 video card, and have been for the last 8 years. Without getting into all of the details, I can tell you that this machine is working PERFECTLY. I have added several Captain Sim files over the years with no issues and they all still work perfectly, not to mention that I have never had an installation issue. I tried to install this file around a dozen times, including a few times with your suggestions but nothing seems to work. I KNOW I can get a refund, but what I really want is to install this file. As I mentioned before, I fully understand the fact that they no longer support a 32 bit sim BUT to me, at least, that would refer to issues that come up AFTER the installation.....maybe I'm wrong. I attached a photo of the e-mail I received today....I hope it comes through. By the way, as I said this computer is running perfectly and that includes 4 flight simulators..... FSX, FS9, CFS2 and CFS3. I never switched over to Windows 10 simply because a lot of the software that I'm using may not even work in it and also because it's a lot work that I'm not in the mood for..LOL. I make regular backups and know exactly what I'm doing. I know you only have my word on that.....but trust me, I wouldn't be going through all this trouble for this little file if it wasn't important to me......OR for a poorly operating machine. The LAST thing I want to do is get a refund. Having said all that..LOL...maybe there are a few more suggestions you could pass along that may help. If this file, or ANY of the files for FSX can no longer be installed, why are they even on the site for sale? I think i have around 10 to 15 Captain Sim files in FSX and there have never been any problems. If you have gotten this far, thank you for reading this rather long message. I have room for another 47000 characters but I think I have bored you long enough. LOL Have a Merry Christmas. By the way FWIW I've been "simming" for 20 years now.....first with 98SE, then XP and now Windows 7. thanks again <img rel=":-)" src="https://www.captainsim.org/yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/default/smiley.gif" alt="Smiley" title="Smiley" /> Radioguy Space Shuttle - No Textures.

Uncheck the Addon Scenery, and that will disable the addon scenery from the Captain Sim Space Shuttle, allowing you to use the another company CanaveralX Scenery. Once you a finished flying the CS Space Shuttle, go back to the scenery library and enable Addon Scenery. I only have Captain Sim addons, plus a few others installed in my FSX-SE on my laptop, and in the FSX\Addon Scenery\scenery folder, is a file named CS68.BGL, which I believe is a part of the CS Space Shuttle (as it is the only CS addon I know of, that installs additional scenery. Here is the list of Key Features for the Space Shuttle, with the Add-on Scenery hilighted: KEY FEATURES • FSX and FS9 versions available * • All six Space Shuttle Orbiter vehicles models and textures: - OV-101 Enterprise - OV-102 Columbia (lost during STS-107) - OV-099 Challenger (lost during STS-51-L) - OV-103 Discovery - OV-104 Atlantis - OV-105 Endeavour • High resolution Commander view 2D Panel • HUD • Exterior Model Animation Control Panel • Simicons Panel • Radio panel • GPS panels • 33 Custom Model Animations • Highly detailed 3D Virtual Cockpit (VC) of the: - Flight Deck with Aft Crew Station - Mid Deck with Airlock - Payload Bay • 238 Custom 3D Animations in the VC • 3D flight instruments • VC High resolution textures • Systems Programming** • Exclusive Effects*** • Realistic Flight Model • Pre-saved Flights • Voice Package • Add-on scenery • Extensive Flight Manual in three Parts • Bonus Set of three original NASA Manuals Edit: I'm assuming that the add-on scenery is Cape Canveral. <img rel=":-/" src="https://www.captainsim.org/yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/default/undecided.gif" alt="Undecided" title="Undecided" /> Space Shuttle - Installation problem https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1292696042/7#7 CAPTAIN SIM FORUM/Space Shuttle https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1292696042/7#7 Thu, 8 Jan 2015 00:36:40 GMT <a href="https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1292696042/6#6">codetrucker wrote</a> on Jan 7th, 2015 at 12:27pm: <div id="codetrucker0">I can't even find out how to install the FS9 version.

I have tried my best. </div> I would think that you just double click on the installer, you will be asked to Activate the product either Online or Offline, then it will detect the FS9 installation folder and install it there. To "fly" the Space Shuttle, select one of the saved flights. I'm not sure what the flights are named for FS9 as I only have the FSX version. <img rel=":-/" src="https://www.captainsim.org/yabbfiles/Templates/Forum/default/undecided.gif" alt="Undecided" title="Undecided" /> Space Shuttle - Sorry, but how do I start? https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1289309803/12#12 CAPTAIN SIM FORUM/Space Shuttle https://www.captainsim.org/forum/csf.pl?num=1289309803/12#12 Mon, 6 Jun 2011 19:45:03 GMT Unfortunately, there is no Launch phase. You either start at the ENTRY, TAEM or APPROACH phase of the flight.

Try just loading the flight without first selecting the Shuttle as the desired aircraft. Just a geuss mind you, but something to try.
