Hi all

 

This bird is fast becoming my default jet-liner - without question, the best add on to our hobby in the 20 plus years I've been part of it. Takes my breath away (no singing at the back please!) every time I fly it.

 

I've been playing around with the default panel states and start up panel states. I've managed to create one called "on GPU", which loads the aircraft on chocks with GPU and ground AC connected and active, but the batteries and GPU switches off (you have to manually mod the .sav file for those), front passenger door and both cargo doors open... what doesn't appear to work, is getting it to load with the airstair deployed. any ideas? - yes the airframe is fitted with airstairs and yes I've tried adding the line 'AIRSTAIR=1'

 

Also.... The camera views appear to be zoomed in too far for my tastes - I prefer about .4 to .5 zoom. I've edited the camera.cfg file to default the 'initial zoom' to these values, which works for the mainstream views BUT... the additional views - eg, from the VC press 'A' - always open with the camera zoom set to 1.0 which is too close for my liking. There are no sections in the default FSX camera.cfg file for these additional views. So my question is... where are these settings held? By the way... this has only just started happening... probably the result of installing some other add on. It was OK before. I suppose I COULD un-install/re-install, but if I can avoid it that would be cool.

 

Cheers

Make sure that wideviewaspect=true in fsx.cfg.
