C172 Trainer seems "dead"

Post by larshgf »

Hi,
I have instaled P3D ver 2.4 on my laptop. I purchased an extra P3D license in order to do that.
Afterwards I installed my A2A C172 trainer on my laptop. It seems to be "dead" - not reacting normally for instance when I try to start the engine the easy way with Ctrl+E. (the two gyro instruments comes to live with Ctrl+E but the engine do not start).

When I go to the maintanence hangar the notes tells me that nearly everything is shot ("Both brakes are shot! - Both left and right landinggears need a major rebuild! - Both maintires are shot! - Replace nosewheel! - We have some bad oil leaks... - Pretty bad prop strike. There may be additional damage..."). I tried a complete overhaul but nothing seems to happen!!

Somebody knows what might be wrong here?
I wonder if all this is a result of my 2 installations (the stationary PC and the laptop? Is this not allowed?

Hello,

Please make sure you run the latest updater to update your aircraft and for the issue you are having please see the troubleshooting FAQ for how to install simconnect. Under the heading P3D users in the post.

Thanks,

Great job, the manual mentioned is under your start menu >> all programs >> A2A Simulations. Lots of information in there and also a generally good read.

Any questions just ask on the forums.

Thanks and happy new year,
Lewis

One of the great things about A2A products is their high fidelity and accuracy.
SO YES - I will indeed read the manual before I fly :)
