Hi,

I installed the 1.5 update for FSX but when I loaded my FSX and tried the select the aircraft, my FSX froze up. I uninstalled everything and now when I tried to reinstall the 777, I get this error message. I click retry and it still wouldn't go any further. If I choose ignore, the aircraft is installed but FSX still freezes up if I try to select it in the simulator

Update - I think I fixed the problem. My bitdefender antivirus was the problem. I had to switch it off and exclude the ace file from scans. However, while I can see the 777 in the aircraft preview, when it select it in FSX it doesn't load.

Hmm, Bit of a problem with my 777 after updating 1.4 to 1.5



Looks like somethings gone wrong with the textures?  Shocked

After a bit of Forum searching I've found that this problem is caused by a setting in Steve's DX10 Fixer, turned off Toned Shadows and now have the gauges back!

I applied the update and now trying to load the 777 causes FSX to crash.  The first time I tried to load it brought up the box about the new gauge, click ok and CRASH!

Restarted Windows, back to FSX free flight, select the 777, CRASH!!!

Running FSX Acceleration on Win7 64 bit.  Version 1.4 worked fine, but I did have to start a flight, back out to the free flight menu, then go back in for the plane to work.

I uninstalled, re-installed 1.4, re-applied the update, and it looks to be working this time.    Roll Eyes

Cannot get 1.5 basepack to work on Windows 8.1. Ver 1.4 works ok. Tried rebooting no joy. Task manager says FSX not responding. Any one else having this problem?

First up I had this happen when I tried FSX with the 777 v1.5 in Windows 8.1.
Then I got a CTD during the initial startup in the cockpit (turning the battery, External Power, Window Heat, etc. ON).
Now it's working fine. I'm doing my second 1 hour test flight, and everything is working fine, just as it did in the first test flight that I finished about 10 minutes ago.

All works here as well. Thank you CS.
I always temporarily disable AV during download and installation. I've also heard, that IE is better than Chrome and others for downloading.

I saw that quite a few people were uninstalling and reinstalling after having problems and I gave it a try too.  It seemed to fix the issues I was having with my controller.  I didn't turn off my antivirus program and it popped up and said that it quarantined a Trojan virus when I ran FSX right after the reinstall.  It looks like a legitimate Trojan attached to the CS777-200 ER GE in FSX so maybe that was the source of my problem.  I don't think it came from Captain Sim, I download a lot of stuff so it could have come from anywhere.

My install went fine but still have the issue of losing the last STAR before the runway. What I mean is that it skips this STAR and just heads to the runway. I do not then have the altitude or speed that is in the constraint for this STAR, which means I am not using VNAV for the final APP mode. I hope this issue will finally be corrected in the next release, since it did work back in 1.3. This happened at KJFK rwy 31L, my test flight.  Also why is the speedbrake extended sign only appearing when on the ground and not in the air when drag is applied.
Thanks for the pass sign on now and of course the clock and better centerline landings. Wink

Being as inquisitive as I am I see where a line was added to the aircraft.cfg file to disconnect the AP when the Yoke is moved (as per the Changes menu)

I think CS forgot to add it to the B773 and B774 models??

AP_VS_maxcontrol=30
AP_FLCH_speed=2
AP_FLCH_window=16

[gpws]
max_warning_height=0.1

Maybe should be:-

AP_VS_maxcontrol=30
AP_FLCH_speed=2
AP_FLCH_window=16
AP_joystick_disc=25000

[gpws]
max_warning_height=0.1

And I haven't flown it yet!!  Smiley
