Ok. Thanks for the reply. I just read the review more thoroughly, and I am noticing that most of the switches do not work according to the review. The autopilot switches do work, but only when you are above 400 feet msl. I was on the ground when I noticed that they were not working. I suppose I will not use the POSKY 777. I will stick to the default 737 until I can afford PMDG. Thanks.

Thanks for the reply, and I see what you mean and I agree, but I have a very strong feeling that the POSKY 777 is quite close to payware quality, and that most of the switches, (especially the autopilot) are functional. Check out this review: https://www.avsim.com/pages/1008/Posky/777.htm Thanks

I have installed this Project Open Sky 777-200 package into FSX Boxed: https://www.rikoooo.com/downloads/viewdownload/55/184, and most of the switches/buttons in the VC are not clickable. The only things that are clickable are 90% of the light switches, the starter switches, the apu switches, the flight director on/off switch, and the autothrottle switch. Those are the only switches/buttons/knobs that are clickable. Is anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it? Thanks very much.

Yes, that is what it was. I installed SE first, then Boxed. Thanks.

Thanks very much! Changing the value in the registry brought the files into existence, and it also fixed my problem with the elevators! Thanks.

I am having the same problem with Chaseplane not connecting to FSX:Deluxe. Running the Flight1 registry fix did not help. Does anyone have any ideas as to another way to fix this? Thanks.

So, I was going to compare the fsx.cfg files, and I am finding that there is no FSX-SE folder in AppData\Roaming\Micosoft that the .cfg for FSX-SE is meant to be located. All I see is a "FSX" folder that I suppose is for my boxed FSX. Could this be the cause of the elevator problem in the first place? No directory in Appdata\Roaming? Verifying the Integrity in steam said that all the files were validated. Starting FSX-SE did not add the files/folder. Any comments/help appreciated. Thanks

Well, I did close it. That is the most I can do. KsimSaver is only an .exe that you open right out if the extracted zip file that you download, so you really can't uninstall it. I will compare the addons and .cfg files from the FSX Gold Boxed and FSX:SE. Thanks for the help.

Yes. I don't think it's the controller because it works fine in FSX Boxed and P3D. I only have this problem in FSX-SE. I did install KsimSaver, but disabling that did not help. I also installed some add on missions, and AI Carriers 2, so I will try uninstalling those and I will let you know how that goes. Yes it seems like autopilot to me too, but I don't think the AP is on, but I will double check. I will also check for duplicate assignments. Thanks for all the good advice. Caleb

It worked fine the first day, then not all the following days. The only reason I mentioned the boxed was because I was stating that I would fly my missions in it, instead of using FSX Steam, until I got this fixed. I do not think that installing the boxed will have any effect on this problem in SE. Thanks

Also, now it seems as if the ailerons mess up up along with the elevators. I didn't think it was that way before...

Verifying the integrity found many mussed up files and reacquired them. That did not fix it nor did a reinstall... Crazy! Thank you very much for your help. I think I will use the boxed FSX until I get this fixed with FSX Steam.

I can understand that. This seems very mysterious. I might reinstall FSX-SE... The ailerons and rudder work fine. Thanks

Thanks, I have checked and it is calibrated correctly. Any other ideas? Thanks

I am also curious about the Fly by wire switch... Is there a key command that turns it off? Maybe I hit something by accident on the keyboard... Would you know where the switch might be in the 747? Thanks very much.

No autopilot. Happens in both the default F-18 and default 747, I would imagine many other aircraft. The missions are the 747 test flight mission and the rocket launch guard mission. Thanks

In FSX-SE, when flying a mission (maybe in Free Flight too, don't know how to really test it since it happens part way through the flight, and I usually don't do my flying in FSX (I use P3D for that)) the elevators will mess up. Part way through the flight (it worked fine for the start of the flight) the full 100% movement of my Saitek yoke is only maybe 5-10% moment of the aircraft's elevators in the sim. Does anyone have any ideas as to why this is happening and how to fix it? Thanks very much. This is very mysterious to me.

That is so neat how the water is in front of the engines when he has the thrust reversers on. Thanks for sharing this!

Thankfully I own v3 as well so when I buy it I can use it in v3 until it is officially v4 compatible if it does not work. Thanks everyone.

Ok. Thanks. The reason why I asked is because I do not want to spend that much, so I was going to wait for a sale (MilViz is known to have frequent sales) and if there was a sale before it was v4 compatible I might buy it then. Thanks.

Thanks for the replies. So I guess it is not compatible with v4. I have not owned any MilViz stuff until after I got v4, so I am not familiar with the updating process... It it a free upgrade? So could I buy it and use it in v3, and then when the update comes out I can update the 737 to v4? Or should I wait and not buy it at all until it is v4 compatible? Thanks everyone.

Ok. Thanks. That is handy.
