Liked the jet pack in FS9. Links take me to iCloud, so I signed up. Couldn't see how to get dowload, help took me in circles so gave up. (couldn't find how to remove my signon either)
Bought from FSPilotshop (only $9.99), downloaded and installed (already had an Aircraft folder for most of my addons).
Starting FSX got a cryptic error message I had to click on to get by just to get my default flight started.
I then changed aircraft to one of the jet packs, clicking yes to trust each gauge. It started ok, but opening the throttle caused a ding noise and a lockup.
Had to use task manager to kill FSX, that same error message was on the screen again.
Restarted FSX, got error message as before. Chose other jet pack model, same lock opening throttle, and same error message shown after killing FSX.
Removed fscamera.exe and (in case releated to it) the FDSConnection.dll.
Restarted FSX, message and lock.
Outside of disabling the gauges and effects one by one, does anyone have any suggestions?
I have a vague recollection now of having a similar fight with it years ago and gave up.
The fact that the error message comes up before FSX is operable must be a clue, but is beyond me.
p.s. I'm still on XP, wonder if that's why I have a problem and others don't.
