I'm having a problem with my Captain Sim 757. Its AP won't engage. I even started the systems manually and went through all the procedures and it still would't start. the only thing that would work on that panel was the A/T and the FD's. I also have a side question about the PMDG 747-400x. When I'm flying the PMDG 747 over 30,000FT the "fly-by" and most other outside views start dropping Frame rates. This usually never happens. (my computer should be able to handle it without loss of frames).

As for the CS 757, download the latest FSUIPC (http://fsuipc.simflight.com/beta/FSUIPC4.zip) and install it. The version of FSUIPC installed with the plane is broken and will cause autopilot problems

did you complete the IRS procedure? if not, Autopilot won't be engaged

Indeed. I'm not syre how CS simulated this, but the IRS can take up to 10 minutes to align.

The latest version of FSUIPC didt fix it. Does this mean need a re-install? Stormpilot

Yes, no need to uninstall. Just click on the execute and select the 'repair' option. Did you have the flight management computer properly set up? Best regards,Jim

Where can I find the repair option? Stormpilot

When you doubleclick on the 757 exe program, you'll get the option to remove the 757 or repair it. At least that's what I get when I doubleclick it.Best regards,Jim

Thanks I'll try it as soon as I can. I will post again if it works Stormpilot

Does The FMC have to be fully configured? As in every single category in the FMC?

Just out of interest,why is a CS aircraft issue being posted here when there is a CS Forum that could furnish all the relevant answers?

No. The only thing configuring the FMC effects is VNAV and LNAV.The INS must be aligned and yaw dampers on. Check your status messages.My CS757 autopilot works fine, its a little buggy. Its not a multimillion dollar simulator.Regards

That's exactly the right question asked and maybe the same methods helps on Stormpilot's other thread, about a FSDT product. Both devs run active forums without any hurdles to read about common problems and only small ones to post about new things.The dev can help you best and he even has to when you bring up something new. Following some pinned threads might also be a good idea. :(

I too had noticed an earlier posting about issues with the FSDT scenery.Woe betide me,but I sincerely hope these are not issues with p****ed software,just in case the OP is reluctant to post in the relevant developer's Forums because both issues relate to p****ed software.I may be way off beam here,and I do hope I am,because we all support the various developers by coughing up.
