No it is not true - I run both V1 and V2 in Win7 x64 under FS9 and FSX; you must follow the usual procedure for installing add-ons in Win7 though. UAC off, reboot, run installer from the right click "run as administrator". Make sure A/V software and Windows Defender are off when you install. Make a copy of the dll.xml file first if you attempt an install to FSX.DJ

Thanks for your help guys! I just purchased it. Of course I am unable to download from the avsim store for some reason...but that is another issue all together.Shez

I didn't have to go through any gyrations to install. The difference probably being I installed FS9 outside of the Program files area. As for the store, I had problems with my purchases as well. They were quick to fix the problem after sending an e-mail to them. You will enjoy the ERJs.

Dowloaded and installed without any issues. Not a default installation so may have been why.Could not find the six additional liveries which are part of the download though. Just have the Embraer liveries.Shez

I have a problem with this package which I cannot figure out.While doing the PreFlight Call! checklist what action do I need to take when it calls for Flight Instrument check? It stalls there awaiting an action from me but I cannot figure out what action it wants me to take? Is there a button I need to press maybe?ThanksShez

I don't recall any issue with this one, but the normal response is to set the altimeters to local... otherwise you can just ignore it and move on.DJ

Thanks let me check this.First impressions, very good package, impossible to fly due to FPS fluctuation from 40 to 7. Appears something to do with panel and systems modeled and maybe Win7 64. With the Grabowski panel all smooth.Shez

While doing the PreFlight Call! checklist what action do I need to take when it calls for Flight Instrument check?

shez:in the manual, in the checklists section, under many steps are 'hints' on what to do. the introduction to theNORMAL OPERATION CHECKLISTS section even states, "The italic text below some of the checks are a 'hint' on how to complete the step."in your specific case under 'FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS' you will see the answer to your question.--

FPS fluctuation from 40 to 7.

did you install the package in winXP compatibility mode?is UAC ON?is your antivirus system ON?is FS installed in the in the default win7/programs directory?all the above are known issues that cause the behavior you describe.support forum -http://forum.iemit.com--

I have the Feelthere ERJ v2 packages installed in Win7 default x86 progrrams folder. It works flawlessly. If you're unable to figure out win7 admin rights, then maybe you should install in different directry. But any how it will work under win7 x64.

The checklist works thanks.FPS: Check on all the above. Even tried to run with all the Services off through Alacrity PC, no joy. Does one need to go back and reinstall with those settings (WinXP compatibility/AV off)? It only appears to be some cockpit system which is causing this.Shez

Hi DJ, I know it is not directly related to this thread but as you run this package, do you happen to know if there are any take off performance calculators available for the EMB 170/190 somewhere?

 

I would like to use the flex take off function by entering assumed temperatures for more realistic take off. I know and run TOPCAT but they are inactive at the moment and it is unlikely they will do an EMB performance datafile in the near future...

 

Thanks in advance.
