Same problem for me, did you find a way around it ?. I have searched everywhere for the wizard no luck and no info available on the net that I can find. Regards Techno

Just to thank those who responded, In reply I do not have any other specific traffic files for LEPA or LFMN the two required TG traffic files are in the scenery folder and are active. I have put the same information on the TG Forum but so far no help has been forthcoming, thanks again it was a stab in the dark to try this forum as I know from passed experience their is a lot of knowledge in contact with the forum so I thought I would give it a try. Techno

Thanks for your response Gerard, What I have done regarding afcads is disable any in GT for which I have third party addons to make sure there was no conflict, I have tried uninstalling and re-installing GT twice now but result is exactly the same which is why I came to the conclusion that I must have removed a Traffic related file from P3d which is required by Global Traffic, I am completely baffled by this it does not make any sense that two airports work fine but the rest are deserted.

I'm not sure this is the right place to put my cry for help and I apologise if it's not but I am desperate. After updating the aforesaid program in P3d 4.2 and prior to installation of update JF advises to remove any files that may be left over manually which I did unfortunately, I think I may have removed a P3D file that is required by Global Traffic as I now only have traffic at LEPA and LFMN which is really strange ground traffic taxis and departs there are aircraft in the air but only in these two areas the rest of the world is deserted. Has anyone any idea what can cause this problem I have recompiled the traffic numerous times to no avail and would greatly appreciate any assistance or ideas please. Techno

I have large areas of dark brown patches with some lighter streaks in them over Ireland definitely not natural terrain, scenery in correct order. I have taken screen shots but have no idea how to attach them in the forum would appreciate any help given. Les

Has anyone managed to get the fuel cutoff valves working in the PMDG 777 with the latest version of FSUIPC in PD3 ver5, I have tried setting the button controls with codes 66494 and 66495 but to no avail, I can get the parking brake to operate using 65752 but nothing happens with the fuel cutoff codes can anybody offer some advice please I'm going crazy trying to sort this out, any help would be much appreciated. Techno

I also have re reports to that effect but there are also individuals posting that they have managed to get Version 3131 working with limited functionality !. Just wish those individuals would post detailed instructions on how they managed to achieve it. Techno

Thanks Bill for your help on this one, that at least it clears up the question regarding SimConnect installation, I can now rule that out as the problem and look elsewhere. Cheers Techno

I have just checked and they are all there, one for FSX-SE as you state and three for FSX, does that therefore mean that they are all available to FSX-SE programs because from what I have so far been able to ascertain all three must be installed for FSX-SE. Techno

Yes, I installed all simconnects as advised on the Steam FSX-SE forum and this is as far as I could get, there is a guy on there who says he has got the program running but I just cannot work out how to contact him for the info on how he has managed to do it. When I say I have installed the simconnects I have gone to their location in the SDK legacy files and clicked on the simconnect windows installers one at a time, I am assuming that is what you have to do to install them, am I correct in thinking that's it ?. I am a bit of a novice at this, well when I say novice I have been meddling with Flight simulation since ATP and FS98 but my computer skills are limited and like your comment regarding learning, I'm at that age where I forget more than I learn so I do need it written down. I do not have my Steam Edition installed in the Program Files (86) folder on my C drive it is on a separate drive, my installation is D:\SteamLibrary\Steamapps\common ETC, could this be my problem?. Thanks for the prompt response Techno

I have spent hours now trying to get FS Recorder to install into FSX-SE but to no avail, I have managed to get the installer to put the insert into the XML.dll but on starting up FSX-SE I get a compatibility message which from what I have read is normal but, on accepting that message I immediately get another saying Simconect unable to initialise Fs Recorder module. Can anyone out there please provide step by step installation instructions to stop me going insane. I am currently trying ver3.1.3.1 of FS Recorder as advised in all the articles I have read. Thanks in anticipation Techno

I am over the moon with this version, I was beginning to despair with continuous OOM messages and crashes to desktop with my PMDG aircraft, ORBX scenery and complex airports which are now a thing of the past. I can now fly long haul with brilliant frame rates no stutters and most importantly no OOM's on landing at airports such as KFSO, this rendition of FSX has just renewed my enthusiasm for FSX and with a few minor tweaks I have managed to install all my addons and they all work with just two exceptions, FSLabs ConcordeX and FS Recorder the latter I have read can be installed, but unfortunately I have not managed it yet.

I have exactly the same problem, VOX set at 40% no other traffic selected, plenty of traffic mostly Emerates filling up the gates but no traffic movement it's crazy. If Vox know about this problem they should respond sharply with a patch, after all it's not a cheap program, if you find a solution I would be grateful if you would post it on the forum.

Good news, I have sorted the problem, there was a CAB file in the gauges folder which had not installed correctly and this was causing the problem, the lights now look great and I would like to offer my sincere thanks to all who took time out to help with there contribution on the subject which is now thankfully resolved. Many thanks Les Wilson

Reinstalled all default FSX aircraft and the REDUX 3D lights, I have used your settings in the PMDG Boeing 737-800 aircraft config, but nothing has changed the landing lights are still the same, I have changed the settings in the default B737 and 747 they work fine as do the ones for PMDG 747-400 which I got off the forum, the lights also work fine on my PMDG MD 11, It really is odd why just the NGX do not work. Les

It is the only thing I can think may be different on my set up, so will give it a try and post the results when I have, I do have some household chores to do today so I may not get time until tomorrow. Once again thanks to all who have contributed info. Les

Tried them Javier, sadly to no effect, something with my setup is obviously preventing the lights from being changed, as I stated previously it appears to make no difference to the lights no matter what I put in the simobjects/airplanes/PMDG 737-800NGX/aircraft.cfg, I have been wondering if it is anything to do with the fact that I have removed the FSX 737 aircraft altogether, having said that the PMDG 747X lights work fine so I am giving this one up for now. Many thanks to all who have tried to help. Les Wilson.

I will try this Javier but, that is exactly where I have been putting the lights text, and as I stated earlier even removing the lights section from this config file does not seem to have any effect on the lights displayed, really strange. Les Wilson

Xtremme, I have tried it with and without the panel entry and it makes no difference whatsoever, I am totally at a loss what to try next, you guys all seem to just enter the lines in the Aircraft config and bingo it works, but not for me. By the way Javier, we are talking about the 3D lights Redux. Les

Hi Chemanuel, you can see the lines I have entered and the lights have not changed at all, are you saying that with the entries I have in the Aircraft Config that the lights should work. Leslie.

Leslie Wilson alias Techno.

Firstly I must apologise to all members for omitting to sign my posts with my real name an oversight on my part which I will not repeat. Your lights look great Extremme thanks for the input however I have not yet tried putting the line offered by VeryBumpy which I will do next, I will then post the results, once again my thanks to all who have offered advice. Leslie Wilson aliasTechno.

Thanks Chemanuel, will give these a try, keeping my fingers crossed. Techno.

I have tried all different combinations including the one's you have kindly supplied Srdan but, I am obviously doing something wrong or missing something out because, no matter what I do or do not put in the [ LIGHTS ] section of the aircraft config nothing makes any difference to the aircraft lights, even if I delete the [LIGHTS] section completely the aircraft still has exterior lights, I'm at a loss what to try next. Techno

Thanks for the link OmniAtlas, have been there but unfortunately having obtained all the lines of text to add to the aircraft config file and added them as instructed, they have no effect on the NGX lights whatsoever, I even copied the PMDG BAe JS4100 info straight into the NGX aircraft file removing all the original text and that had no effect either, I must be doing something wrong but what, I have no idea. Techno.
