COTS Panel not fully showing B377

Post by theunknownmonarch »

Hi Everyone,

As the title suggests when I attempt to open the crew window for COTS it only shows about half of the panel completely excluding important aspects such as the live engineer. Just bought it yesterday, I know it's not a problem with my system because I also have the L049 and it's COTS works perfectly. I'm using FSX Steam edition.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Make sure when you do the install you do the 377 first and then the captain of the ship second. I did the reverse when I bought it and had the same problem. Hope this helps you out.

Keep smiling
Tug :)

Hi,

We don't get much FSX traffic these days, thanks for the purchase!

In addition to Tug's suggestion, please can you also run the A2A_Update_05_11_20.exe which you can download from this sticky topic. These legacy FSX installers don't include a built-in updater, so it's always recommended to run the standalone updater after installing.

Thanks,
Nick

Dear Nick and Tug,

Thank you so much for your assistance. I've gotten the B377 working properly; I look forward to getting many hours on her. I will definitely check out the updater. Thank you again!

Best Regards,

Jovahn

Glad to hear that you are up and running. You should have a lot of great air time in that one.
