Lost Engine & Switch Sounds in Cockpit

Post by mathurpc »

Everything was working fine till now but I suddenly lost the engine and other sounds, such as switches, inside the cockpit. The sound in external views is working file. Also, I am getting an error message "Gauge c7_I initialization failed. Bitmap c172_c7_I.bmp not found. However, the file exists in the texture folder. I tried to re-install C172 and then applied the latest update, but the problem still exists.

Lewis,

Sorry I should have included that information in my posting. It is A2A Cessna C172 Trainer for P3D v3.4.

What happened recently as it sounds like somethings caused an error with your P3D. Any new add-ons or updates installed?

Are you running P3D as admin and how are you loading the flight?

Which OS are you on?

thanks,

Lewis,

I re-installed it a second time and now it is working fine. So, I guess it was just some damaged file perhaps.

Thanks for your help,
Pramod

It sounds like a flight error (simconnect not starting correctly), so I doubt the reinstall did anything but the new flight will have.
