Running Engines Shut Down

Recommended Posts

Since I have installed update 1.40 whenever I start a tinmouse flight the engines immediately shut down, even though I always run the default C-172 first and leave the engine running. This did not happen before I installed the latest update. Has anyone else encountered this problem?

Might be the fuel selector position in the last.flt file.Try loading the default Beech Baron, open the throttle quadrant popup window, and cycle both fuel selectors to off and back to on. Then close the sim. That'll reset the internal variables in the last.flt.

Nope, makes no difference. It seems to be impossible to start the SIM with engines running. I'm going to try with the B732adv.gau from the previous version and see if that makes a difference, and report back.

Check in the TM.ini file...is it possible you have the InitWithEngShutdown parameter set to 1?

That was it! Although, how it happened I can't imagine as I never before opened the TM.ini file. Many thanks Bob. Your dedication and helpfulness are outstanding and much appreciated.Investdude
