Thanks Jim for the assistance. After following your instructions, I was able to get everything up and running again...This is one of the reasons I joined this forum.

problem: Majestic aircraft "only" external view of aircraft appeared as skeleton...I was advised by Majestic support to erase everything from the "shader" and "shader10" folders, which I did... Then after rebooting fsx, the window where the aircraft appear was solid black...I could see the various aircraft so I chose the Majestic Q400...The screen was totally black, but I could hear the engines running... I did a repair with FSX deluxe 2 disks...When I attempted to access fsx, I received a fatal error and fsx closed...] Anyone know how to correct this problem...I am not a computer geek, but can follow instructions... Bob Adams

This post is concern with external views...I just re-installed the Majestic Dash Q400 professional...When I switch to external view the aircraft appears to look like a skeleton frame of an aircraft... Anyone have any ideas which file or setup is changing this appearance...I have no problems with the views of all PMDG, Blackbox, Aerosoft or Eaglesoft aircraft... I have attempted to delete the fsx.cfg file and start over, so any ideas out there...thanks

It will never happen!!!!

All my fsx planes Pmdg, Majestic Q400, work with windows10... The only one that doesn't function is the Eaglesoft Citation x 750 version 2...It loads but locks up...I have search the internet for a solution to the problem...No luck...

Pete, Wanted to reply and say thank you for your help...I downloaded the file you suggested, followed the instructions, and found after several hours that my computer files were so corrupted that I decided to do the upgrade procedure with my retail Windows 7 OEM dvd which came with the computer that was built from parts...That procedure worked successfully, and now I have a "new" OS...Then I took the SP1 disk from Microsoft and after several minutes installed... After all installations I actually reinstalled the FS2crew program for PMDG 737's...Worked to perfections...In fact, the flight attendant was giving instructions on top of Vatsim ATC in Salt Lake City...LOL I even purchased fs2crew for the Aerosoft Airbus extended version 1.16...Now I have to learn to fly the airbus..Has the fs2crew version been released for the PMDG777? Thanks, Bob Adams

Current Task:Creating the Critical Section Object...SUCCEEDED Windows7 [unknown flight Simulator] Current Task:Creating the ISpRecognizer object...SUCCEEDED Microsoft Speech Recognizer 8.0 for Windows (English - US) Current Task:Creating the ISpRecoContext object...Error Code:0x80045003 I know what the problem is caused by, "I used System Mechanics"!!!! FS2Crew was working great several years ago with my pmdg 737-800 Everyone says to re-install Windows7....Forget that idea...I will just have to ditch the program for the J41 and 737... There has to be a better way to solve this problem...I am no computer genius...So I will keep reading until someone comes up with a better idea to solve this problem.... Bob A

No link...says forbidden link

Appears to be a inactive link or WWW.skyteamv.org is not available...Maybe somebody else might attempt to access....

OK, I am a very old man and all this is very, very confusing...I downloaded and setup my new 777-300 at the Cleveland airport after looking at the radar page on weather.gov...There was a severe weather front passing through the area with TS...OK, I downloaded a trial version of ASN weather and filed a flight plan from Cleveland to Chicago just to see the action...I turn on the radar by pressing the AUTO button L/R buttons on the pedestal and WX button above the ND..A few minutes into my flight, I started to see some action out the window to the West...In a few minutes I was flying through clouds...Nothing on the radar...I could see rain out the window, but still nothing on the radar...I adjusted the tilt and gain on both sides, still nothing... Someone said to reinstall FSUIPC I didn't do that, but did delete the fsuipc.ini file then re-started FSX.... So would someone out there tell me actually what I should do step by step to get this package to work...Another thing too...When I turned up the gain on the radar my fps dropped from 30 to around 5 then down to 1...At that point I couldn't even use the mouse pointer any longer the program started to freeze up...I am running this program ASN weather on the same computer as my FSX program. My computer runs the I-7 extreme processor with 12GB of ram plus the machine with parts built 4 years ago cost around 4,000 dollars...Without the weather radar running fsx runs very smooth around 30fps...but now nothing works right...Any help would be greatly appreciated...

Sorry gents, but this is the first and last Carenado product I will waste my hard earned money on such a inferior product..First, I should have known better...The Prodigy 100 system is really outdated and difficult to program for flights on Vatsim...I will go back to the original fms systems of the PMDG and Eaglesoft Development group...The only way I can fly the Phenom100 on Vatsim with Sid and Stars is to use FSCommander program to control the course headings... There are so many little details that were overlooked...many mentioned in this forum...So I want waste your time...Yes, I agree with the comment, it would be nice to have the developer update this beautiful "candy" aircraft, but that will never happen...That's why PMDG has been so successful with their aircrafts because they spend so much time in development of a superior product before releasing...

Same problem with the PMDG 777...Interesting...let me know when you find a solution

I run the I-7E processor from Intel...12GB of Ram...I have my video card set for 30fps...The 777 on my computer runs like flying in the real world. I use GEX, and REX...The plane after 3 or 4 hours of flying will freeze in mid-air for about 5 seconds then return to normal...Towards the end of a long flight it will start freezing more. I am not a engineer or computer expert so really don't understand what is happening. It has never frozen to the point I had to restart...YET!... The one problem I have is running fsinn on Vatsim and the radio frequencies. I have read the manual page 84-86, and all the work-arounds. I still have to change the setting to "NEVER" in the simulator settings each time I start FSX...I have changed the config file, but that doesn't have any effect. Also, when entering the ILS runway such as 25L for KLAS in the arrival rwy in the FMS, it doesn't automatically change to the correct nav frequency, I have to do that manually......It always remains the same default freq. when 777 is loaded. Maybe, I miss read something. I had the impression that when you entered the ILS runway frequency the correct NAV frequency would be entered in the FMS. .All in all, I have owned "all" the airplanes that PMDG built...I have enjoyed flying from the J41, B747, 737, and now the 777 which is there best.

My autopilot disconnect is on my yoke..I normally press the button again after the alarm sounds. That usually takes care of the switchoff...

I have had this great airplane from 9/25/13...I used the Tutorial setup for my first flight...The plane flew flawless from take off to auto land...Since that first flight I have attempted to land at several airports in the U.S. without success using "auto land" These are the airports...KLAX, KLAS, KBOS using charts...In to Boston KBOS I was on the QUABN TWO arrival for ILS approach RWY 4R. Using the chart WINNI 4000', NABBO 3000', MILTT LOM 1700' LOC/DME 110.3 APP CRS 036 degrees...I was perfectly on the glide path as announced then about 0.9nm from touch down the announcement "NO AUTOLAND" Another situation and maybe I misunderstand, but I had the impression than when you entered the ILS RWY for example 25L for KLAS or 4R for KBOS that it would set the ILS radio frequencies automatically in the Radio/NAV of the FMS..The NAV freq remains at ILS 113.70/000 m unless I change manually. In the tutorial the Radio Altimeter was set at 50...Never used this in the PMDG 737 models, in the tutorial it worked, but not sure how to set it up for other airports...Somebody might enlighten me on this subject... Another issue, which is not related to autoland is that when I click with the mouse on the FMS or any other panel screen to enlarge into the bottom right corner of the screen it will show for 1ms the shape, however, it's solid black... I don't know if I received a corrupted download or not...
