Hi, my complete overhaul has stopped working for my cherokee. I searched previous posts and saw sim connect mentioned but i cant find sim connect anywhere in my fsx menu.
Regards
Andy

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
Hi Andy,
Please can you give us a bit more info on what you mean when you say "stopped working"? For example, are all the items in the maintenance hangar shown with red text, indicating they're broken, yet can't be fixed by clicking on them?
Thanks,
Nick

Hi Nick, yes exactly that, but when I change aircraft to a different cherokee that one has no red faults

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
Okay, thanks Andy. Can I just check if you've modified your default flight in FSX so that it's loading this 'broken' Cherokee? In other words, is it the first aircraft you see displayed in the 'Free Flight' window when you launch FSX? If so, that could be the reason for the problem.
Cheers,
Nick

Hi Nick, no the default flight that loads is the trike over Friday Island.

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
Ah, okay. It's a bit odd that the issue only affects one livery as they all share a common Accu-Sim module. Have you made any changes to the Cherokee installation such as installing repaints or other mods?
Also, are you loading the Cherokee via a saved flight, or directly from the Free Flight aircraft selection box?
Thanks,
Nick

I have 6 repaints and it is affecting half, I don't use the default liveries so not sure if it affects them. When the default flight loads I then end flight and set the cherokee up from the menu

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
If it's just affecting repaints Andy, sounds like there may be an issue with how they've been installed. Does the issue always affect the same paint schemes?
Thanks,
Nick

Yes the same ones, I've installed many in the past so not sure why there is a problem now. Sometimes a box pops up saying attempt to load a null value or something similar.

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
Might be best if you can copy and paste the contents of the aircraft.cfg file here Andy. Or the modified top part anyway.
Thanks,
Nick

[fltsim.3]

This is one of them, its the same as some of the other ones that work correctly so unsure why this one is a problem.

Hi Andy,
It's the structure of the whole top section that's important (everything above "[General]"). That's just the bit for that individual paint scheme. Good choice of repaint by the way!
Thanks,
Nick

But all I did was add the new texture and the repaint cfg file, nothing else changed.
Thanks

Andy,
Please can you post the full contents of your aircraft.cfg file here. Also, have you made any other changes to the Cherokee installation such as add-ons gauges?

Re: Complete Overhaul not working FSx(non steam)
I added guages to 2 repaints but they didn't work so deleted the entire repaint.
Funnily enough if I load one of the repaints that works OK and then load one of the ones that complete overhaul are not working for, it all works fine!
