Frustrated and losing faith in FG

Postby KIWI34 » Sun Aug 21, 2016 11:14 pm

hello everyone, since downloading FG 2016.2 , i have had multiple problems, for over 3 months now, i have no idea what i did but aircraft won't auto or manual start, no buttons work, liveries don't work, terra sync barely works, and multiplayer is s****ing out on me.

I have deleted and re dowloaded FG multiple times and I'm not seeing any changes

Slowly giving up on FG, i haven't been able to fly in months, can someone please help get the flightless bird back in the air, i will appreciate it dearly.

KIWI

For the terrasync issue, use terraGit.

Hello Kiwi,

So that is why i have not seen you for so long. Fg is still a tweakers kind of program. Many things change for the bad, so you need to know how to work around. Fellow fliers can be of help a lot. If you are on windows i can help. But you need to specify those things a bit more. It useless if i gave you windows tips, when you are on Mac for instance. But if you are on windows, we can go through your issues one by one.

Kind regards, Vincent

Probably the easiest thing right now is to make your FGRun.exe the desktop opener for FG, it's hiding in the FG\bin folder. You'll have back your old familiar GUI. Delete or rename the default one and send to desktop and rename your fgrun.exe in fg/bin "2016.2_fgrun.exe" This new version of FG has been hijacked by the Garden Gnome Developers, has all sorts of aircraft filtering and other hoo-hah that makes the sim initializing experience less intuitive.

Good news. Sorry about disappearing tonight. Some domestic issues. Well not really issues, but had to have a chat.

Kind regards, Vincent

If we gave everybody in the World free software today, but we failed to teach them about the four freedoms, five years from now, would they still have it?
