I don't even know where to BEGIN! I searched here before posting and can't seem to pull up any other discussion about this, but I doubt that's the case. Tried to follow tips and "checklist" from another forum but the files the poster referred to are absent. I followed the manual. I can't seem to find a .cfg file within the MyTraffic folder. I can't seem to make FSX SE include MyTraffic as scenery.

I'm burning fuel from only my left tank? I've scoured the manual, searched the forums, and no solution found.

Hey! Thanks a lot! Thankfully, I have a bit of experience with text-based stuff like this (QuickBasic, VisualBasic for Applications, and the old Autoexec.bat and Config.sys) so I took what you pointed out, compared other panel.cfg files, and worked it out. Thanks again!

All I have to do is figure out how to obtain a copy of the real folder ....

Arghhhh! All of my "panels" in my "panels" folder refers to the C182!!!! I need a new "panels" folder for the B350!!

I get the panel, but everything where gauges are supposed to go is blank! Now, I have added quite a few airplanes -- feeware and payware -- and when I can, I tell it "no" when asked to overwrite something (which it never has) when installing new aircraft. But I don't know what the installers are doing. I also know that somewhere in these files are .cfg files where I could check for the gauges files pulled by cfg and see if they are even there. I guess what I'm saying is, I have no idea where to even begin troubeshooting and I have no idea what caused it to begin with.

Thanks, Bill.

That legitimately makes me smile. Thanks so much!

Anyone know where I can find a Dah 8 100 that is flyable and has a virtual cockpit? Freeware or payware is okay. I searched this library, and couldn't find it. I found some Dash 8 on FlyAwaysim but they either didn't seem to be flyable after I installed them (they didn't pop up) or they didn't have a virtual cockpit. I found payware through PremierAircraftDesign (or something like that) but the download link seemed to be broken and it isn't compatible with DX10. I have done my searches and just can't seem to find it. Payware or freeware is okay. Thanks for any pointers.

I got it working and sincerely appreciate everyone's help!

Some of my questions are answered; thank you; I found FSX and I understand that STEAM must also be running. Which brings me to one more question on that issue: With FSX Steam, I can play offline; Correct? In regards to the error message, am I receiving it because of where it is installed? Or is there a way I can address the UAC issue and run it from where it is? Oh, and a rhetorical question not intended to be answered but more of a vent: Why would STEAM place it somewhere, where it causes problems!??

Downloaded FSX Steam and not having much luck: Another question. While I have downloaded it and my used disc space seems to indicate a significant increase in used space, I'm not seeing it in my File Explorer. Do I have to be on STEAM to run it? Can I not just run FSX Steam as a standalone without being connected?

Thank you very much, everyone. Looks like, though, I may have more funds on the way so I may hold off for a bit. I did order my control yoke/foot pedals the other day so it looks like I'm well on the road to flying the friendly digital skies.
