I had that happen to me too when I first got it. The difference was that it worked the first couple of times and then the HUD wouldn't come up anymore no matter what I did. I just uninstalled it then reinstalled it and it has been working ever since. Try that to see if it fixes it.

Hi.

The next step requires a complete uninstall. This includes deleting the entries in the registry (regedit) AFTER you uninstall the product. It also means that you will need to activate it online again when you reinstall it.

How to clean Registry:
1. Uninstall the product
2. Go to Start> Run. Type: regedit, click OK.
3. Find the product entry in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CaptainSim\ (please note, for Windows 64bit versions it is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\CaptainSim\)
For example: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CaptainSim\C130XPRO (64 bit example: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\CaptainSim\C130XPRO)
Make sure you are going to delete correct folder!
4. Delete the product entry folder.
5. Restart your computer.
6. Install the product.


In your case the entry is HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CaptainSim\w001 (64 bit: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\CaptainSim\w001). See the attached image.

Hope this helps.

Mark

Well I did what you suggested and still no joy!!
I even installed it on my other computer that has FSX/WINXP and it does the same thing. Any other suggestions? Also I filed a trouble ticket with CS and have heard nothing back and that was 2 days ago. Once again Mark I appreciate all the help you have given so far.

Regards,

I have the same problem and have submitted one of them kb things..

I have try both of the above and still have no luck.
I have also tryed it on other aircraft with no luck.
so would be greatfull  if there is a fix for this.

It looks to be a great fun addon for FSX.

Thanks

Okay. A Final option that might get this working for you.

Check-in to Your Profile > Select Weapon for FSX > Extended Download Service > Get New Links. Click on that link and download and install it again. You could have an incomplete download. It sounds weird, but it does happen and it has actually happened to me and this final method was the only way to fix the problem that I had.

I hope this will get you going with this great add-on.

Well I tried that (Downloading again)  and that did not work either. Thanks Mark for the suggestion. I have yet to hear from anyone from CS on this. Any other ideas?

Well, I have solved the issue and it was due to a corrupted FSUIPC.DLL.
Once that was fixed, the HUD now works and I am able to fire.

BTW this was with the CS F18 with just the Weapons pack, no manual modifications.

Thanks Mark again for your assistance!

If you having this issue, delete and then re-install FSUIPC.


Regards
