Cold and Dark

Featured Replies

Hello,I recently (as in about 5 minutes ago) purchased the button control edition for the J41. When i click on the PF button to put the aircraft into a cold dark state, the systems appear to shutdown, but the engines remain active, though they do not turn the props, the sound they create is still there. If i click the button to shutdown on the overhead panel the sound goes away. Any ideas?Thanks

Hi,No ideas off hand other than is your PMDG J41 totally up to date and are you running anything else that might interfere?I know some people made some LUA script that can shut the engines down...Was the rest of the flight okay?Cheers,

Hello,I hope it is up-to-date, i only downloaded it last week. The LUA script requires a fully registered version of FSUIPC doesn't it? I currently use the non-paid for version, i.e. the version that comes with products.It's odd that PMDG didn't include a cold dark startup, they always strive for the simulation side, yet start this aircraft with everything running.I didn't go any further with the flight, i'll try again.ThanksIan

So i bought FSUIPC and the LUA script works a treat. It stops everything.I love the product by the way, it's the first time i have purchased an FS2Crew addon, i will be buying more starting with the button control edition of the NGX.

Hi,Glad you got it sorted, but you shouldn't need the LUA script. FS2Crew should shut down everything for you. Why it's not in your case... I don't know.Important thing is you're up and running.Cheers,
