Where is the 777?

look closely you can just see the engine fans.  I'm a bit disappointed with my external view!

You must have downloaded the military stealth version.

I would suggest that if you could provide us with some specs of your system, and also if you have been in exterior view before and seen the whole whole aircraft, or if this is an isolated incident that has just happened out of the blue.

David-

 

Please peruse the Intro Document- there is a lot of information there about advanced animations, cfg edits (HIGHMEMFIX) and FSX set up in general for you to apply. PMDG (esp. Ryan) spent a LOT of time writing it, perhaps it's worth a look.

I'll have a look in the morning.  This was the first time I'd looked outside, so I was a little surprised to see what I did...

 

I've spent several hours tonight just reinstalling, fsx + extra's  

 

Had not realised there was more general setup stuff in the user guide

 

Spec is

From your specs you gave us, I would say you have a capable system to run the T7 without much problems. It maybe that some essential tweaks are missing from your FSX.cfg file. I recommend having a look at the 'Avsim HW & SF Guide' which should get you going in the right direction  :good:

Are you running EZDoc? If so run the updater.

[davidjpowell1974 4]

Reading the manual helped.  Can now see the plane, and flies nicely, even with a nicely striked tail....  oops

 

Now for the tutorial and the manuals...
