Fan Blades Not Spinning!

Featured Replies

I had to uninstall and reinstall the NGX after I messed up trying to resolve the livery manager issues. Then I downloaded some liveries and tried to install them. Had to delete all the old livery folders before I could install the new ones. Now the fan blades are not spinning at all on all my add on liveries. The engines are running but the fan blades are not moving at all. And also the fan cone looks like it's gone. But the PMDG house livery looks fine and spinning as it should. 2011-8-9_22-28-30-816.jpg Anyone have any idea on what could be wrong? Thanks

Just reload the plane. It happens all the time. Even the Satcom antenna is added to your plane sometimes ;s

Did you switch from one livery to another of the same model? That will cause this. It's in the Intro Manual and this is actually the third thread about it in the past two days! Thinking.gif Otherwise, I'm at a loss.

Thanks for the suggestions. I exited out of FSX completely before each livery change. I did this 4 or 5 times loading different liveries and even threw in a system reboot but they were all still loading with idle fan blades. Only the PMDG House livery would load with the fans spinning. When I changed airport to KLAX the problem was gone and all liveries loaded fine. Will have to load up at KTPA again and investigate further. Edit: I just loaded up again at KTPA and all is fine...fan blades and cone working. The only thing I can think of is that it was raining heavy at KTPA when the fan blades were not working. When I load up in clear weather the fan blades work fine. Maybe the weather has something to do with it?

I don't think this has anything todo with it but nevertheless. When you deleted the old texture folders, did you delete texture.common texture.pmdg texture.vc? If you did, that could be your problem.
