May 2, 201115 yr Have just installed Flight Sim Labs Concorde-X, looking at the reviews it promises to be an awesome aircraft. First attempt to fly, results in a blank black screen.Restart FSX.Second attempt, same thing happens.Restart FSXThird attempt, same result.Wack in FSX disc and do a repair.Restart FSX, now wont get past the splash screen - fatal errorOh the joys of flight simming, looks like I'll have to do a complete reinstall Taking off is optional, landing is mandatory!
May 2, 201115 yr Sorry to hear about those crashes (the real one only did once, but relating these things where people died is a bit .. you may guess). :wink:Are you aware of the FSL forums? Find them here http://forums.flight...m/3-concorde-x/.There's a FAQ, there are other crash related topics and there are support guys awaiting you, if your questions are new and weren't answered in other threads before. But even if not, talk to them, they are the Pros for that fine bird, always willing to help.

May 3, 201115 yr If this is his thread, the thing is solved and was caused by another addon soft. Wow, nice response time, 5 minutes after posting Lefteris was on him.Have some nice flights now and always watch your CG. :(

May 3, 201115 yr Author silly question but I assume you have installed CIVA INS???? No I haven't but am looking into it.I decided to a complete new install of FSX + Acceleration with no add-ons except Concorde XHad a few problems at first (everything had a white haze, now fixed) but now all is fine and I'm back in the air, all I have to do now is to learn to fly the thing :( I believe that my problems may have started because I had Ideal Flight 10 running in the background. Taking off is optional, landing is mandatory!
May 3, 201115 yr silly question but I assume you have installed CIVA INS???? No I haven't but am looking into it.Mike, he was just asking because it was a common thing to happen that people forgot about the necessary installation of the Civa INS gauge for Concorde X. They maybe didn't read the manual, just installed the plane and wanted it to start. It therefore crashed instantly because that gauge was missing. The later installers took care of that.Now, with your Concorde X running, you have that gauge installed. Nice shot by the way. :smile:That manual and tutorial step can't be stressed enough on this detailed flight sim plane. Enjoy the readings there, it's well worth the time.

Enjoy the readings there, it's well worth the time.The CIVA INS gauge is automatically downloaded and installed by the Concorde-X installer (let's not confuse the issue with what was required back in the SSTSIM FS2004 days). In order for it NOT to be, the user would have to forbid the installation - in which case, they'd already know they stopped it.Regards, Lefteris Kalamaras - Founder www.flightsimlabs.com
