Lancair Legacy V1 Config Panel settings have no effect

[phlix 0]

When loading the Legacy V1 in P3D 4.2 the config panel settings don't seem to be respected. For example, if it doesn't matter if I select "Cold and Dark" or "Ready" in the config panel, the plane is loaded with Prop off and Avionics on. I even have the feeling that it loads with Props on which then rapidly goes off. I also tested other config options, like "GPS On/Off", which also has no effect. The changes I make are well saved to the files in P3dv4/Realair/legacyfsx/ Does anyone else have this issue? Any Idea how to fix?

Thank you,

Felix

i don’t have this aircraft, I fly the Duke but you state V1, I believe the link I provided to the installer for the two RealAir aircraft both say V2 that might be the answer?

Hope it helps

Might be, but I don't have the V2. I remember having a similar problem in FSX:SE so I'm not sure if a hypothetical upgrade (which afaiu is not possible because you cannot buy any more Realair products) would fix the issue.

Ok I fiddled around and found a workaround by swapping out 1 and 0 in the SimObjects\Airplanes\RealAir Legacy\panel\Config\Options.xml file. I think that for some reason the config app fails to update that file in my case. As an example, to set Cold and Dark, change this:

<Value>(G:Var1) 0 == if{ 0 (&gt;L:coldAndDark,bool) }</Value>

to

<Value>(G:Var1) 0 == if{ 1 (&gt;L:coldAndDark,bool) }</Value>
