I'm thinking you are probably right about P3D.
And I'll admit that I'm more than just a bit frustrated by it all. :-[
And, thank goodness for Dan Church (of FlyInside) for allowing me a refund for my FSX version of FlyInside, so I have time to sort this all out.
I'd 'really' like to get it working properly on either FSX or (more likely) ... P3D, so I can get the matching version of Flyinside from Dan.
I served a 6 year tour in the USAF as an avionic specialist, working on the C5A, C141, C130 and C123, and was ultimately assigned to JUSMAG (the Joint US Military Advisory/Assistance Group) until 1975, as an advisor with USMACThai (US Military Advisor Command Thailand) 1131'st TLD at Udorn RTAFB, training Cambodian and Laotian military personnel to repair the avionics on various aircraft, during the Vietnam war ... and have a sort of "Brothers at arms" tie to my neighbor that flies the C130J as a Maj. in the USAF Air National Guard on regular deployments to Afghanistan, when he's not on duty at his "day job" as a California Highway Patrol officer.
He flew a special combat drop mission in Afghanistan, with the call sign Torque 58 on Sept 11, 2011 ... the 10'th anniversary of 9/11, under Operation Enduring Freedom.
They carried a few US flags with them on that mission, and when he returned he presented my wife and I with one of those flags, in a special deep frame that also contains a certificate/photo of his C130J, signed by himself (the A/C Commander) and the rest of the flight crew.
So ... the C130 has a long time, and very special place in my life.
And I'll keep hammering away at it, but I'm really disappointed that Capt Sim has been so ... less than helpful. ::)
I'm going to try to rename the config file, and see if that helps at all, and am reading about the different tweaks people have done to the config file, but I’m getting a real sense that I should just go to P3D, and then move the CS C130 over to it using either the somewhat complicated appearing instructions I stumbled upon on the different forums, or just buy a program that will do the transfer.
In any case ... here’s a picture of the flag presentation display that our neighbor presented to us.
Click on it for detail ...
P.S. Also, thanks for the hints Mark, I'll give that a shot too! :)
