A2A C-182 Can't enter Maintenance Hangar

Post by olddog60 »

I am not able to enter the Maintenance Hangar. The message states, "Must be on ground and engine off.", which is the case. I tried to turn Damage Off as a test but the selection returns to Damage On. My A2A Comanche and Bonanza work fine. This was happening with the C-182 before and after I reinstalled to get the Rain Effects. I have done some searching looking for a solution to this problem and did reinstall Sim Connect, with no difference.
Thanks,
Bill

Hello,

the full message also includes a click here to continue, have you clicked to continue to the maintenance hanger?

thanks,

Sorry, I should have included that clicking 'Click to continue' didn't do anything.

Thanks,
Bill

Hi Bill,

When you first launch P3D, which aircraft loads in the top left panel as part of the default scenario?

Thanks,
Nick

The initial install is the default Mooney.

Thanks,
Bill

Okay, thanks Bill. That shouldn't cause any problems, but for troubleshooting I recommend you revert the default startup flight back to the original.

Could you also let us know if any other add-on software is loading when you launch P3D?

Cheers,
Nick

Active Sky and Cloud Art, FS Realtime and again, only the 182 does this. Forgot to mention UTL.

Thanks,
Bill
Edit: I uninstalled the 182 again and reinstalled and now I can access the Maintenance Hangar. I reinstalled my RXP GTN750 and all is well. I didn't check to see if I have the rain effects but I'm thinking it should be there too. :)

Okay, thanks for the update Bill.

Again, somewhat mysterious, but at least all seems to be okay now. :)

Best regards,
Nick
