Blackbird Sims / Milviz Forum Archive

Downloaded the regular version T38 with no problem enjoyed the aircraft so much that I went for the advanced version. After I downloaded the aircraft and started it up in the prepare version 3 I have the cockpit with no gauges and the stick is positioned hard left with no movement of the controls. Need help getting the t38 advanced up and working. Thanks.

Which simulator? Sounds like a gauge is not loading.

Redbird jay. Which program needs to run as administrator?

32bit Prepar3D? If so, then it is likely missing the required SimConnect libraries. I do recall there being a redist folder in the main sim folder which should have a FSX SP-ACCEL or something like that folder in it with a SimConnect installer that you would need to run.

Sorry for not completely understanding but This is all a little new for me. So I have prepar 3D set to run as administrator what other programs must I have set like that? Also not sure where I am looking for this SimConnect library.

Here is a look at the downloads page if it helps. Also here is what the cockpit looks like.

Go to the install location of your Prepar3D. Should be C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D vX where X is the version number. There should be a folder called redist in there. Check it for a folder called FSX XPACK SP2 or something like that. Inside it should be a SimConnect.msi you need to run.

Ok found what your talking about. Next dumb question how do you make the file run?

Here are the 3 options

Its inside the lib folder I believe. Should be named SimConnect.msi.

Found it, opened it up and went through the prompts. Tried to re download the aircraft same result. Next suggestion?

After running the T-38, go to start menu->search->Event viewer->Windows logs->application and see if there are any errors related to P3D or the T-38 at or near the top of the list.

The only event I see is 1035 msinstaller

Go to your P3D settings->General. Is there an option called Enable Content Error Logging? If so, enable it, and let it generate a log, then post that log here.

Where will I find the error log for P3D.
