System crashes when I select any C-130

Hey fellas,

I know I know this is not for tech support but tech support is pointing me in directions that offer no solutions for a product I paid for.

I have looked at KB 182,674 and 1585 with no luck.

My problem.  I select any C-130 and when I select go fly it crashes at 82% loaded some times.  Sometimes I dont even make it there.

The only issue I think I may have cause I dont clearly understand it is the ACE path .flt.  What .flt file am I suppose to select.

Thanks for any help. PLEASE.

Best.

Dave

Hi Dave,

I've had the same problem. I use FSX but I think you could try to go to:

Local disc C > Program Files (x86) > Microsoft Games > Microsoft Flight simulator X > Captain Sim > 130 > flights

Choose a CS default flight and double click on it (I suggest the Cold & Dark one, because is more realistic):

[Legendary C-130 (Pope AFB Landing).FLT]

[Legendary C-130 Pope AFB (Cold&Dark).FLT]

[Legendary C-130 Pope AFB (Hot Cockpit).FLT]

Windows will ask you to choose a program to open the file and will suggest Microsoft flight Simulator. Then, accept it (double click).

Once this is done, save the flight, e.g., "Tour C-130".

Then go to FS upper bar > [World] > [Time and season...] > [Go to Airport...] > [Weather...]

Save the flight ( "Tour C-130").

Tell us if it works.

Hope this help,

Pinatubo.

Pinatubo,

Thanks for your detailed explination.  However no joy.  When I open the .flt with FSX the system crashes.

I too am using FSX on a VISTA OS.

Still looking for help.

THanks

Dave

So, I suggest you to uninstall the add-on, clean all register data [start > regedit.exe (run as administrator) > CaptainSim > C130XPRO], restart PC and reinstall it.

If the problem persists, maybe your installer is corrupt. Download it again and try installing from the new installer:

Check-in to Your Profile > Select product > Extended Download Service > Get New Links

OK,

Still no luck.  Followed directions to the letter.  Selected the AC-130 and once I selected the airport to take off from and selected OK the game crashed.

Perhaps I need to deal with ACE.  Here are the present tool path settings.

Path to FSX
C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X

Path to FSX flight files. ( not sure what this is)
C:\Users\Dave\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files

thanks

You do not have FSX SP2 installed, this is one of minimum system requirements.

Hi Dave,

FS Service Pack (SP) 1 and 2 are patches to address some issues, as activation and installation, third-party add-on issues, performance enhancements and content issues.

You must download the service packs to the existing Flight Simulator X installation.

Be sure to install SP1 before SP2.

Sites to download:

http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=14380
