Hey guys,I've recently downloaded ifly 747 for FS9, great add-on, everything was doing well yesterday... so today I hear about services packs which apparently improve gameplay, so I downloaded them up to the 2nd ( couldn't find the third ) and now when I launch a flight with an ifly 747, the FMC and the screens ( PFD, navigation display ... ) are all turned off.. it looks like as it's a cold and dark but not really, because I hear engines running slowly and I do have electricity on ( landing lights ... ) So what am I supposed to do if I want to start a flight with everything turned on just like before ? and what do I have to do if I want to start in a total cold and dark cockpit ?Thanks for your help ;) ;)

747cpt, Go to flightsim.com do a search for iFly 747-400 panel should be listed. do you have a membership there?The file name is ifly_sp3.zipIt's the second one from the top.

Thanks 747Astrojet ! Im gonna try that and I'll let you know ;)

lol yes as it turns out, it was in fact just a cold and dark cockpit ... my mistake.so if I want to start a flight with everything on ? i've been told that I need to start a random flight on my chosen airport with everything on, save the flight, and load it again with the ifly .. however when I do this, it launches the flight with the plane i had initially saved it with ... what's the solution here ?? thanks again !

Here's what to do:- for a flight with everyting ON, load the default flight. Now load the iFly 747. So do not end the flight, simply load the iFly 747. Hereafter,m simply choose what airport you want to go to, also via the "go to airport" option in the FS menubar.- for a flight with everything OFF, make a new flight with the default Cessna and turn everything off. Save that, so that you cna use it later. Now laod the iFly 747, and everything should be turned off.Hope that helps!

Hy,It does not work, the Ifly still remains off whatever I try .. thanks for your reply. If anyones has any advice, please share (I have the SP3 installed now, and FS9 is updated to the latest version : 9.1)

Have you sent an email to the developers by any chance? If anybody knows, then it ought to be them. I guess their email is written in the readme that came with the download.

Oh yeah thanks, i'll try that.For the record, I am using FS9 in french, and the service packs are in english, maybe it has something to do with that .. anyway I'll email the iFly guys ;)
