V 2.6.3- Jumpstarter failed

[Flugmatz 0]

Hi, just installed SIMstarter and get myself familiar with different features. Unfortunately the Jumpstarter doesn't work ("No standard flight"). Tried the hint from previous version with opening/closing livery manager - without success. Could you pls give advice?

Regarding the manual(s): As a reference "Chapter 0" is mentioned in chapter 4 "Opening screen" - where is it? Can't find a chapter 0.

Best wishes

Hi Matthias,

 

let's try some debugging things:

 

1. What happens if you open the "Livery Manager" (Tools > Livery Manager) ?
2. What is the exact error window and when does it occure?
3. Which plattform are you using? FSX, FSX:SE or P3D?

well, its as follows:

- the livery manager is ok- no problems with that, he does what he is made for

- there is actually no error window, the second line in jumpstarter tells: "Found no standard flight" , so all the rest is not functioning

- I use FSX

Best

Okay. Thank you.

 

SIMstarter is using a saved flight to run the "JumpStart" function. For that reason he needs at least one saved flight located in the "Flight Simulator X Files" directory. Maybe you've choosen the wrong one. Please check:

 

1. Open SIMstarter > Settings > Program settings
2. Switch to "FSX / FSX:SE" card
3. Check your folder under "Flight Simulator X Files". Maybe open it with the explorer and double check if there are saved flights. As specialy for users with other languages there could be a wrong path because FSX uses "Flight Simulator X-Dateien" instead of "Flight Simulator X-Files".
4. Close dialog and run "Jumpstart"

Once it is correct SIMstarter should do the JumpStart job as well. ;O)

ok- it works. The point is: The program sets IMHO the wrong path by default (...Programs/FSX) and I didn't check it.

However - thanks a lot for your assistance.

Happy landings
