Thanks Pilecan, I have SCE, and the problem persitst even if I disable all areas snd just run default. I think there's a rogue file in the global\scenery or world\scenery, perhaps left by a bad uninstaller? Cheers,

Thanks, gentlemen, I would have appx 300 areas I think.

Thanks Kev, I've tried a bunch of them, but pitch up/down was a good idea, I'll let the hoardes know when I find it Cheers,

Gentlemen, I've recently dusted off the excellent Jetstream 4100 to fly some Sunscan routes for BAVirtual. I've all my Saitek hardware set up via FSUIPC and power, reverse and condition levers are working perfectly. Only one issue; I can't seem to find the correct offset to program the VS/IAS thumbwheel to one of my rockerswitches. As this control has dual functionality, I'm at a loss on how to do this correctly. If anyone has a tip on how to do this, I'd be gratefull. Cheers,

Thanks mate, I have read it through and tried all suggestions except repair... Ain't sure if I dare Would like to know if there's a kind of log for the FSX startup though. Cheers,

I've got this irritating feature on my system now. Just as if I've altered an active scenery area, the scenery database keeps rebuilding at every startuo, except I didn't I've disabled all but the default scenery areas with SceneryConfig Editor, and the issue stil persists. I'm painfully aware that something propably got changed in my World\scenery or Global\scenery, but I'm not able to figure it out. I wonder if there are any way to intercept which element this process actually grabs, through a log file or something? Cheers,

Congrats on your setup Mike, I've just been over on your Youtube-channel, great stuff. Cheers,

Very interesting link Kyle, I'm sure it's ye old, but I was never close to reading that, thanks for sharing. Cool thing with flight simulator, it sometimes can be a flight stimulator, i.e. on a wet looking runway it can feel to be a pain to get her to slowing down

As usual, Steve and Ray is on the point. I'm staying on FSX Accel, my well tuned networked setup since 5 years (!) delivers what I need. Will not change until I build a new beast and start fresh with P3D, btw interesting to follow that discussion too, deja vú from the F9-FSX discussion ten years ago, still going on too Happy New Year friends!

Solved, again. It was the old trust bug described by Pete here: http://forum.simflight.com/topic/68382-fsx-fails-to-run-after-fsuipc4-first-installed/ Endless rearranging of the DLL's finally made it load. Cheers,

Thank you Sir! That's certainly something I never have dared to try before I'm on a rock solid install from 2010, very carefull not to mess around too much. The last time it "suddenly" solved itself when I upgraded to a newer version of FSUIPC and/or rearranged bglmanx.dll, and pow Pete is gone until the 6th so no new version before that. I'll play around with the dll's and refresh the trusting some more, I might find the golden combo. Cheers,

Kyle, I'll resurrect this thread as I've got the same issue now after installing / updating my FSDT Addon Manager. Reverting to backups of cfg/xml / uninstallimg FSDT does not help, I have a feeling that my issues are with SimConnect. I'm on FSX Accel, I have all three SimConnect versions installed. Simconnect.log does not give me anything as I'll appcrash as soon as I answer yes to load pmdgsounds.dll. The last time I got it to loosen up by rearranging dll.xml and update my FSUIPC. As I said, I feel like I'm lead on a goosechase when something underlying / structural is wrong. I must admit not checking the readme you mention, as I don't own FSX:SE, but my search pulled this thread. Does sound very similar. Is there something I could try to "reinstate" Simconnect, or at least shake it around abit? Thanks mate,

Many good points here, with regards to the issue with photoscenery, that applies to all scenery with photoscenery bgl's that covers smaller areas, not only large scenery packs with "photoareas". I use the freeware Scenery Config Editor to group and switfly disable groups of areas that I don't need for a certain flight. Makes all the difference in my setup.

That did the trick, don't know why I was so apprehencive about rebuilding fsx.cfg, it went without a hitch. I did a three hour flight in the PMDG 777 and all good. Thanks again!
