Post install throttle stuck in reverse

Post by colin_law » Tue Apr 19, 2022 7:48 pm

Hi ,post installation throttle is stuck in reverse ,checked old threads and downloaded dll.xml as per instructions into prepar3d v4/simobjects/airplanes/pc6main/panel and ran it but came back with file already present in main prepar3d folder. Here it is
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
<Descr>Launch</Descr>
<Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>VRS_TacPack</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>Modules\VRS_TacPack\VRS_TacPack.dll</Path>
</Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>

I am using Hotas Warthog controllers and have had no problems with other aircraft in Prepar 3d. could you please assist as having spent the dosh I am getting quite frustrated at not having a working aircraft.
Regards Claw

Have you setup your controls in the MVAMS program?

It looks like XMLTools may not be installed. Can you please download this and run it as an admin. Let me know if there is an error message and do a screenshot of it.

Thanks for getting back to me , I loaded XML Tools and it ran successfully ,however whenever I try to load the aircraft in a scenario it kicks me out of prepar3d - other a/c run normally. ??

The Mvams program has no controls option but I have set up the other options within it.So at the moment after putting XML tools in I do not get as far as loading the P6 into a scenario it just crashes Prepar3d as soon as I select a scenario with P6- any ideas would be welcome.

Which version of P3D are you using? In V5 the WXR module will not work and cause a crash or you may have an old installer. The work around is to make sure you don't have the WXR selected in your panel setup in MVAMS.

I,m using v4.5 P3d , I have deleted P6 and re-installed and taken out WXR - it now is working - so thanks for your help Steve ,what a kerfuffle just to get a slow old mudmover installed.
Yours gratefully

The WXR will work in v4.5 but there is a patch as I believe the aircraft was released before the final version of V4.5

See this thread for the fix:
