I touched on this with a previous post but am starting a new one for clarity.

I still can't get the steering bars on the ADI to function; I was hoping the update might do the trick but it was a no-go. What I have noticed is that at night I have instrumentation flags on the ADI - they are not visible during the day. The Attitude Reference Selector Knob (STBY/PRIM) does not function (upper left of the ADI), and I have tried TACAN, HDG, NAV COMP positions with no movement of the bank steering bar. Glideslope (ADI) works, course deviation indicator (HSI) works. In the ILS position the pitch bar with move up/down rapidly from time to time and that is all.

I've looked over the preflight checklist and I'm not seeing any switches / checks that address the ADI other than the one I mention, above.

I've attached a night screenshot so you can see the flag(s)...

Can you get me a daylight pic please? If what I suspect is the case, the flags are still present, but missing the correct diffuse textures.

I just remembered one other thing though. You tried turning on the navigation computer in the rear cockpit? As far as I recall it affects several of the ADI/HSI flight director group components. That might be why I am not seeing a problem because I usually start up ready to fly which puts the nav computer on.

Screenshot attached.

I too, start up ready to fly. The NAV computer is in the 'BASE' position. As you can see in my picture, I am in ATT mode and the pitch bar is on the horizon. Thanks.

Ok that has made more clear what is going on. Found the problem and fix is on the way.

Great. Thanks!

Thanks for the last update, ADI bars are fully functional.
...And a Happy New Year!
