Error Loading 707 v1.3

Hi,

I downloaded and installed v1.3 but now have a problem when trying to load the aircraft..



I first uninstalled v1.2 then installed v1.3, had no errors during install.
I also tried an uninstall and reinstall of 1.3 but still get the error!
  

Cheers, Ayster

Can you look into the aircraft.cfg and post that [fltsim.7] entry?

I believe you, ayster, don't worry.  Smiley

Please check this line
sim=csx7O1
and alter the O to "0" (zero). Save the new aircraft.cfg then (backup the other one first!) and try again.

Mine is showing a "zero", so maybe your installer isn't current since he seems to write the letter O there instead of the number zero, which leads FSX to the wrong air file to use (he doesn't find it then). Maybe you should reload the 1.3 installer again.

Do the other paints work for you?


Here's my #7 entry. It's working out of the box. See that zero?
Code
Select All
[fltsim.7]
title=CS_B707-300 Paint 7
sim=csx701
model=300
panel=
sound=
texture=brmid
kb_checklists=

Hmm, how strange! CS must have realeased a duff installer at one point, then re-issued it after I'd downloaded!  Shocked Will make the change when I get home (at work at the moment!)

Thanks!

Nothing strange. Try reinstall the product. If no luck please contact support.

Well, changing the entries in aircraft.cfg allowed me to select the 707 and load it into FS, but now none of the animations work and the gear seems to have disappered! Going to download a fresh copy and reinstall again, hopefully that will sort it!  Smiley

Good idea. Seems like you are running in some kind of protection problem there.

If the landing gear issue shows up again, just reload the plane (Aircraft>Select Aircraft) and the landing gear will reappear.
