Radarcontact 4.3 and PMDG747 FSX Problem II

Featured Replies

Hy Simflyers.If i reload a RC saved Flight with the PMDG 747 in FSX SP2, i cant use the Gauges which i select with the Shift+1....9 keys.This Gauges appear for a second wholy black, than nothing happens any time i press the shift+...keys.I saved and reloaded a flight without RC,but with the 747 PMDG Aircraft, all keys are ok.I saved and reloaded a Flight with RC and standard Aircraft, all keys are ok.I dont know is it a RC or a PMDG problem,but together they wont go.This only happens when i reload a flight.Any solutions?I Post this Thread also in the PMDG Forum.thankshowy1PS: Win XP SP2

what was problem I?i didn't think any 3rd party plane, would be able to be reloaded in flightwithout rc in the picture, can you be flying along, and press the ; key, and save a .fltthen 30 minutes later, have fsx load that .flt?jd

problem number 1 was jeff evans never starting flight simulator, before starting radar contact. can't pin that on rc or even pmdgplease read the following:http://forums.avsim.net/dcboard.php?az=sho..._id=28145&page=you said:(Why u say, u didn't think any 3rd party plane, would be able to be reloaded in flight?)my experience has been, and so has the beta testers, that this works sometimes, sometimes it doesnt'.so that is why there is the caveat to rc saving flights, that it won't work with 3rd party planes.the fact that it doesn't work, would be a good indicator that the statement is true.try this.start fs, change to a ms plane, a ms panel. start rc, load a .pln, click start rc.when the menu appears in fs, press ; and name your saved flight. quite rc, close fsnow start fs, load the same plane, with the same panel. start rc, and load the .rcd - click start rcjump over to fs, does everything appear to be working?why does it work with ms planes, and not 3rd party planes? i can only guess, that when you load their plane through the fs menus, a bunch of initialization is done, including loading specific keys to do specific functions. that is just a starter.now when rc loads a .flt, i'm guessing the plane doesn't go through the same initialization process, and the keys that were defined and initialized for specific functions. a even better test, would be to start fs, load your 3rd party plane/panel. don't even start rc. just click fly now. so you're sitting at the gate. press ; and name the flight.close fsstart fs, choose to load a previous flight, and pick the name you just saved. do all the keys work?i don't know. it would be interesting to know. if it does work, then we can be even more confident that you can't save and then load rc flights with 3rd party planesjd

Check the following link: http://ops.precisionmanuals.com/wiki/PMDG_...fails_to_reloadThe problem seems to be FSX. I have come across of what appears to be the same problem a few times in the past (almost exclusively when a flight is Reset)and so have others but there is no solution other than restarting FSX. I don't have RC. What has helped is saving the PMDG panel state as well as the flight and then reloading both.Zachlog
