FSD/Milviz YF-23 OUT NOW!

The YF-23 was designed to compete with the YF-22 in the Advanced Tactical Fighter (ATF) program and to meet USAF requirements for survivability, supersonic cruise and with all-aspect stealth as a high priority. FlightSim Developers and Military Visualizations are pleased to present their high detail representation of this fascinating aircraft. An astoundingly fast aircraft with what was described as fearsome acceleration, this production includes every switch and functional system represented down to the operational ejection seat. The aircraft is designed specifically for use with FSX Gold or Acceleration and the YF-23 runs as good as it looks. Please visit the FlightSim Developers Hanger to see it for yourself.
 
The modeling looks really good! :applause: But all the FSX default gauges are not my liking...especially not the Cessna ADI :kilroy:

Could you please un-install and install again and make sure that the error code is correct.

that way we're on the same page.

In terms of the FSX default gauges, those will be replaced by 3D gauges in a 1.1 release in the next two weeks or so.

Support issues should be taken to FSD's site from now on. Someone there will respond to any and all issues. Don't want to fill up this thread with Q and A.

Thanks,

kc.
 
Error 273. "Could not create the file to make a backup of the FS X file "dll.xml"! This is likely due to problems in your Windows environment, or with your security permissions. We recommend you exit this installer, reboot your computer, and then start again."

Edit : Sorry Colin. Already posted over at FSD.

N2056; no, that isn't the problem.
 
The only FSX native gauge used was for the MDF Screens and they were customized for use with this aircraft , instructions for running the screens were included on the kneeboard reference page.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" /><o:p></o:p>
All the 32 others were crafted for this aircraft <o:p></o:p>

Thanks for the info, Chuck! Maybe someone should update the screenshots on the FSD page ;)

The core problem here is that the installer was unable to locate the critical Flight Simulator file dll.xml in the expected location. This would be the folder where the rest of your FS X configuration files are. The usual path would be:
For Windows XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\[user_name]\Application Data\Microsoft\FSX\dll.xml
For Windows Vista:
C:\Users\[user_name]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX\dll.xml
Where [user_name] is the name of your Windows login account. The file must have this entry in it in order for the software to work properly:
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>FSDX</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>FSDX.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>
