It just don't move ! Maybe the title was not explicit enough ? I wrote "animation" ! Load it, look at external view and at interior view turn head on the left.

Hello,

What about the other 'models' as the one you mentioned is the same just a different repaint. Have you checked the basics such as control lock, maintenance hanger etc.

-There is no control lock on the P40

-No problem with other models

-Maintenance hangar is great or beautiful shape.

I noticed the issue at the flight ending. No problem at the beginning during the check.

I saved the situation like I do every time. The fact to reload the saved flight don't solve the issue.

I understand it's not a visual "glitch" but if it's a failure why it's not specified in the maintenance hanger ?

Hello Richard,

what happens when you load the P-40 without using your saved flight?

thanks,

I found something interesting.

The problem of the locked left aileron was actually in relation to a real failure. My last landing before this issue was.... hum hum... very hot and hard ;-).

However into the maintenance hanger all was perfect "beautiful shape" and so on... !

So I had a look into the FSX failure menu and bingo. There some failures like left command and main gear was specified ! Which is exactly about how I landed (boooo to me).

So, important question : why Accu-Sim ignores these failures ? What a shame. Please, do you think you can make some changes in the future Accu-Sim ?

Of course after fixing all this stuff in the Fsx menu failures, this time the aircraft was in perfect condition. No need to reload anything.

I would sincerely preferred to resolve this problem in the maintenance hangar !

Thanks and regards,

Hello Richard Accu-sim ignores the generic failure system altogether as it's simply unrealistic. This is why we have Accu-sim for realistic failures. The failure you encountered is nothing to do with the p-40 sim as we do not call or use them, you just have a 3rd party program trying to use the default failure system?

Thanks,
Lewis

Hello Lewis,

I have not a 3rd party program trying to use the default failure system.

It's only FSX Accel, Rex E+O, MTX pro, VoxAtc. Realism menu : detect crash and damage checked, "G" effect checked + all flight model sliders full on the right (100%) (maybe it's not exactly the good translation, my Fsx is a french version)

I noticed something curious. I tested/started with a new aircraft P40 without failure. After a flight with no problem from the beginning to parking (this time with a perfect landing ;-)). I had just a look in the FSX failure menu, I was surprised to see "total failure" checked under the Engine tab at the last line. Seems it happens every time I stop the engine. If I restart the engine the "total failure" returns unchecked and so on.

Please, if you have some time, can you test what I explained above ?

May be it's my system but anyway it would appear there are some interactions between Accu-sim and Fsx failures with the P40 and the Cessna.

Edit : I took the time to test all A2A aircrafts i have (P47, B377, Piper J3, B17) and generic/native aircrafts.

This "interaction" occurs only with the P40 and the Cessna (Accu-Sim Core Update version 2.0). (For me of course because I have only these two A2A aircrafts with a shared core system.) May be it would be interresting to tested also with the Spit and the two Mustang civil and military ? All other aircrafts tested was "clean" in regard the issue.

I'm curious to know if you have the same result.

Thank you in advance for your help

Regards,

Richard

Hello Lewis,

Below my FSX_Setting and the "total failure" checked like explained in my above post (the last picture is just to show what is checked when engine is shutt off and unchecked when engine running). I have MSE with an exception for FSX folder (D:FSX)

Hello Richard I cannot check right now (on my phone) but you will want to check those settings against the manual. From memory they look correct.

Thanks,
Lewis

Hello Lewis,

Yes, it's like the manual except "Aircraft Stress causes damage" and "Allow collisions with other aircraft" options (they are checked in the manual). I don't think there is some relation with the issue.

Just a thought, if you or someone from A2A could just tested what I explained, we should know if the issue is from my install or from the Accu-Sim. The test is very easy and fast to do.

If it is only on my side I uninstall and reinstall the Cessna and P40 to see if the problem persists

Last but not least, all stuff run on W7U64.

Waiting for your answer

Regards,

Richard

Hello Richard,

the issue doesn't appear here and no one has had the issue since the P-40's release a few years ago so its defiantly something else trying to force some default FSX failures on your aircraft.

Lewis
