iFLY 737 NG issues......
Hi

im having some issues with the ifly and fsx se, and i was wondering if anyone else had experienced them, in order so that i can maybe fix it.

its installed fine etc, and i can sometimes get through to a flight, but for the most part they are not behaving correctly.

i have used the configurator, for fuel and payloads and integrating fs2crew etc, and have also reinstalled, although the issues are still apparent.

basically, the problems are these:

it takes an absolute AGE to load it in the free flight menu, im talking forever, almost to the point of locking up, which leads me to after "end flight" or similar, it does lock up, or crash, or just generally mis behave.

also, sometimes the plane is just sunk halfway down nose up in the runway once starting a flight, or it is just crashed on the runway or sometimes the controls fail to work.

it only happens with these aircraft, everything else is fine, my a2a stuff, my pmdg, quality wings....everything else works fine, but theres something just not right with my 737's....


any help or thoughts on this would be appreciated, maybe theres something ive not thought of

i dont think its a simconnect issue, i dont think its any other addon causing issues. ive run in both dx9 and dx10 (with the fixer)


im at a loss

Mine does take a while to load. But it also depends on what version I think.
If I fly the 737-600 the first time takes forever. It loads fairly quickly after that. But if I change planes it does take a while.
The wheels are sunk down about 1/4 of the way as well. But it flies beautifully.
Have you updated the iFly files? Mines ver 3.1
My gauges didn't work until I installed simconnect.

I was having different issues with my I fly 737 and I installed the simconnect and they all went away. I know you are having different problems but it might be worth a shot.

yeah roger that, so just outline me which simconnect and where, and ill give it a go, the msi in the xpack folder or whatever?

This is where I downloaded mine. But it's on the Gold disc and I think the Deluxe version?
http://en.sourceforge.jp/projects/sfnet_facetracknoir/downloads/Special%20support/SimConnect/SimConnect.msi/

I scanned for any malware or viruses and it was fine. I know it looks like a weird URL.

Yes, it's in the SDK if you own the Gold version on CD. I'd have to look and see if it's on my Deluxe version disc.

why both using the GOLD version when its available in your steamapps folder
there are a total of (4) simconnect.msi files in the steam edition, and you should run all of

them, as well as the C++ redistro(2010 vr i believe)
where i installed mine to E:\
E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX\SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\LegacyInterfaces
there are 3 in here, in each of the following folders
FSX-RTM
FSX-SP1
FSX-XPACK
the final simconnect is here
E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX\SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\LIB
