June 9, 201411 yr Fellow captains, I rarely post but I'm having an issue with my 777.i have searched this issue but can't find anything. I have been flying the 777 since release day without issue. In the last few days I have been having an issue with some panels of 777 with some panels not working, i load the aircraft, start ground power, load flight plan and start the APU. Push back and now either the overhead or the mcp won't work. I have used different livery and different airports. The only way to fix it is re-start fsx all over and begin again which is a pain. Just now I was planning to fly WSSS-WIII after I (in real life ) flew wiii-yssy. I did just install a new WIII scenery. Any help much appreciated! Ashley allen
June 9, 201411 yr Commercial Member Push back and now either the overhead or the mcp won't work. Hey Ashley, This can be caused by the eyepoint moving into the headrest. You can use a combination of CTRL+SHIFT+ENTER/BACKSPACE, CTRL+ENTER/BACKSPACE, or SHIFT+ENTER/BACKSPACE to move your eyepoint around should this happen. Unfortunately, Microsoft coded the eyepoint such that it shifts as you move around the world (or even load up in different spots). There is a little more detail about it in the intro manual, but give those key combinations a shot (and read the intro if you want more detail - or, really, just go ahead and give the intro manual a read, since there's a lot of great info in there).

June 9, 201411 yr Author Thanks Kyle, I did notice the eyepoint into the headrest. I have just started using EZCA. Thanks again! Ashley allen
June 10, 201411 yr Commercial Member I have just started using EZCA. Welcome. That'll do it on occasion. Let me know if it works! Kyle Rodgers
June 10, 201411 yr Author Kyle your a champion, works a treat mate. Never realised how the eyepoint moves in its own. Glad I don't have to restart the flight! Ashley allen

Yeah, it's kind of a pain. If someone can figure out a way to eliminate the eyepoint movement, they could probably make a good bit from it... Kyle Rodgers
