Quality Wings 787 Problem
Hello everyone. I have got the quality wings 787 with both service packs installed and on loading all the displays say Err:Startup error unable to start qw787-1. Im not sure what else to do theres nothing on the internet.

Here is a link to a screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e6qvsxf3efpmuli/20180629020139_1.jpg?dl=0

Im thinking maybe im missing a font or something?

I have both the QW 757 and 787, I have no problems with the 787, but I get the same error message when I start the 757. I found that by simply changing to a different livery of the 757 than the one I initially chose I could get everything to load up normally. You could try that with the 787, don't know if it will help but it's worth a try. Keep in mind that even if you don't get the error message the QW 787 takes about 20 to 30 seconds to "initialize" before all the gauges and instruments will load up.

If the problem persists you may have to go to the QW support website for help. FWIW, once you get it working correctly this is an outstanding add on.

Ok thanks. I’ve already contacted them and got no response. Any other suggestions are welcome as well.

I tried your suggestions and it didn’t work. I remember the quality wings 757 did this and the problem ended up being a missing font. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Try a google search for the error and see what you come up with, that's the only suggestion I can think of, if it's due to a missing font there should be some discussions about this somewhere because you can't be the only person who has ever experienced this issue. Good luck.
