Bill Lyon's Grumman Goose Re-boots Machine

Featured Replies

When I load my flight and the Grumman Goose, the panel appears but then my machine re-boots. I am using a Parhelia card at 3068 x 768 and I usually resize the panels to fit the center monitor. I see the panel for a split second and then the machine re-boots. I installed the A/C on my laptop with no problems, but this is using the standard 1024 x 768.Any ideas?Thanks!Barry

I have a similar problem... The difference is when I load up the Goose that's the only aircraft I can use in one session. FS9 will CTD if any other plane is loaded after using the Goose... :-hmmm

I have had that same problem with my older computers but my new one seemed to fix any reboots. I managed to figure out it was the sound files that caused my problem. My fix was to alias a default sound file to the aircraft (Lockheed, Jenny, ETC.) and that seemed to do the trick. Give it a try and who knows, you might be able to fly soom fantastic planes. Thanks Bill for that great gift.Best,Jan

Ummmmm?Sounds a lot like the absence of "FSSOUND.dll=1" might be the problem in the FS9.cfg file.Might be worth a peek.Good luck.RTH

It would crash mine even with the file present. At the moment I have two computers attached with a hub and both set up the same way. One will crash the computer, the other works fine. I have never been able to figure this one out.Best,Jan

----------------------------------------FS9 will CTD if any other plane is loaded after using the Goose----------------------------------------There is a way around this although it is redundant if your FS9 loads *fast* after the CTD.Decide what plane you want to fly after the Goose and rename its panel folder to something else. Now select that plane...it should load flawlessly but of course without the panel. Now save the flight, rename the panel to its regular name and then reload the flight (CTRL + :)You should now be able to fly the other plane.---This has happened to me a lot and I've noticed (in my case at least) that its the panel folder thats causing the CTDs when you switch from a particular plane to another!

As someone said earlier - a great gift from Bill and mine flies flawlessly But, I noticed that the automatic installer did not appear to leave an uninstall programme anywhere in the system - or have I missed something??

(Settings-->Control Panel-->Add or Remove Programs)

No I can't find an uninstaller either and it does put things in a lot of different places, including the main Scenery folder

I also tried the Add/Remove facilty - no luck. Its no big deal - I have also "installed" into a separate "unique" folder so at least I know exactly what is installed into FS9 and where. Although it is such an interesting package that I doubt that I will ever want to remove it.
