Accu-Feel:Core FSX Enhancement by A2A released

I also had a very unusual result. Doing install a DirectX error popped up but then went away. The install was completed and I fired up fsX and immediately got a fatal error. This occured 4 straight times.

After a couple moments of sheer panic, I rebooted, got a strange trayIcon reading error but windows loaded fine. Still no joy, fsX would not load.

Now the anxiety was really building. I uninstalled Accu-Feel, rebooted and did not get the trayicon error. Tried fsX and it loaded normally.

Here I sit, perplexed and a bit nervous about retrying. However, I am going to assume a faulty download is the culprit as everyone else seems fine. I'll let ya know the next chapter -- a soon as it is written.

BTW, I have a fairly "normal" setup: fsX Gold edition running on Windows7 Ultimate/64bit with 4Gb memory, an AMD Quad 4 Processor with a GeForce 9500 graphics card. The system has been operating perfectly until the Accu-Feel install episode.
 
My girlfriend says no way am I going to get this. Not giving her enough real accu-feel lately because of A2A accu-sim.
 
The new life of many addons. Tested too with Piglet's beast ;). Amazing sounds but I asked A2A about this:

I tryed too setup settings for airplanes with open cabin but still the sound (more prop, wind, less integration of cabin ect.) is worse than I take Shift+E (open window), but in this plane isnt a door, windows for opening ect.


Is it possible to add one new button with option "On/Off - Open a window permanently" ? I noticed better sound when "the window" is open for airplanes like this:

sounds you are having trouble getting to the alt menu itself?
if so (and please dont shoot the messenger) it may point to a bad FSX install. The alt menu is a part of FSX and should work all the time as its how to access the menus in FSX whilst in game.

In other news can you let me know your username and ill get you set back up on the forums so you can post.

Hello,

I replied to your post over at our forums. Direct X is a requirement for the product and must be installed otherwise the product will not work. Try the microsoft online installers if the installer with the product is having issues. (This maybe a system error at your end if direct X is having issues installing, a little googling may be required. If you post the direct X error message on our forums we can take a look and try to help were we can including with the googling that seems to be required now for any tech issue on computers hehe).

On loading FSX, how do you mean it will not load? If it was hanging at the splash screen try alt tabbing to switch programs just in case the click yes box for the dll's is hidden behind the splash screen.

thanks,
Lewis - A2A

Hey Lewis, I'm working with Scott over at the a2a site. What I mean by won't load is that shortly after getting the fsX splash screen up, I gat a "FATAL ERROR HAS OCCURED" and fsX shuts down. to recap what Scott is talking about follows.
Scott suggested the following steps to help isolate the problem:


1...Did a fresh install
2...Hit cancel at the DirectX Install
3...fsX load failed
4...Renamed the 2 dll's in the Modules folder
5...fsX loaded with no issues

Scott said: "If FSX loads then, then we would want to look for another conflict."

No, I'm not having trouble getting to the alt menu. It pops up just fine but no accu-feel. My FSX install is fine, was working fine and I had zero problems before hand. I downloaded and installed according to instructions, everything is in the mdl file......I'll keep playing with it, just don't have that much time today....... Why would I shoot the messenger when I respect A2A as much as I do.....I hope I don't have that rep. around here?!:icon_lol: I know it will be sorted out and it's most likely MY computer problems.

MudMarine, when you installed your AccuFeel, did you:
- launch it by right-clicking and choosing "run as an administrator", or did you run it by a normal double-click ?
- choose the folder where your FSX was installed, or did you install it in a different folder ?
 
Okie dokie Mudmarine, no problem.

After installation did you restart the machine? I think this might be a good idea as it seems to have solved issues for a few customers.

Mud, check your PM's i'm about to send you one re: the A2A Forums

thanks,
Lewis
 
No problems here, flawless install for me. Thanks for another great add-on, used the Just Flight DC6 last night with it :applause::applause: Thank you!

Ditto from me - took an old FS9 CL-215 firefighter for a spin last night with a couple of buddies on m/Player and the added effects from Accu-Feel really added to the experience for us all. Great work A2A :salute:
 
I spent more time backing up my FSX install than anything else. 44 minutes for a full back up, but it's safer than having something go wrong and having to reinstall. This is a great add-on, especially considering how little it cost. I have noticed that the prop sounds seem to be too loud with radial engines when cranking or shutting down and I wish that opening a window, possible with with many add-on Cessna's, would trigger the louder engine and wind effects. That might not even be possible with the coding of FSX, but if it were possible it would be a great touch. Otherwise, I love the sounds and the bounce effects, this really brings new life to flying in FSX. :applause: :applause: :applause:
 
All the positive things people have said: quite true. Just got to fly a bit last night with it, and every installation of FS really should have this program. It adds small but vitally important effects that aide immersion so much; if you've ever flown in a small plane, you can testify that these things are noticeable. I mean just opening the door or window and hearing that prop wash made me grin.

Just good stuff A2A! :ernae: Price is BEYOND worth it, too. I was hoping it wouldn't be very pricey, but $15 bucks is a steal. That's like ordering pizza one time, maybe less if you get a lot of crap with your pizza LOL :running:
 
This sounds a brilliant add-on but (I have to ask because of my elderly system) - is there a fps hit at all?
