[No Lights on bravo throttle quadrant]

hi,

I found a sort of solution on avsim forums and it DOES work for me at least.I've not fully tested everything but I do now get lights.

when I run the sim Hopefully your guys can figure it out and create a fix.

ok so here is what they said and what I did

In the afc bin folder that is in your community folder copy and put the afc bridge exe file as a desktop short cut. make sure you give it admin rights.

Start msfs in admin mode although I don't think this is neccessary. when you have created your flight and are ready to hit fly, run the afc bridge exe from your desktop then hit fly. Once your flight is loaded you should have your lights back.

It has worked twice for me but its by no means an ideal solution hopefulyy with this info Ben can figure out why and offer a fix

 

cheers

Hi ,

Add me to the list  I have carried out what you requested. All lights work with the test program 

When i created my install I used a custom location for the msfs install so my community folder is E:\Flightsim drive\MSFS2020\community\AFC Bridge\Bin

And have the same 2 files as baxterbj in that folder 

MSFS still shows AFC_Bridge as not installed

All My other addons that are in the community folder work perfectly so MSFS sees the folder fine

 

Thanks
 

[No Lights on bravo throttle quadrant]

Hi,

 been away from the sims for a short while but i just discovered an issue with my bravo throttle quadrant  regarding the lights on the quadrant which had been working and still do on my p3d installs.

however in msfs they have stopped working .

I noticed that in my contents folder the afc bridge shows as not installed but is in my community folder.

i have uninstalled  the afc bridge folder redownloaded and reinstalled the latest msfs fix for the lights from the aerosoft site to no avail.

from what i have read this may be the reason i cannot get the lights to work but no matter what i try in msfs i cannot get it to recognise the afc bridge as being installed.

I remember there being an issue with 3rd party programs showing as not installed but were actually working. 

I had this but with the various sim updates since this looks like it was fixed except for the afc bridge in my case 

any ideas?

thanks

Thanks Mathijs,

I have done as you suggested, hopefully your guys can help with UPS as UPS have been useless.

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Hope you might be able to help with this as I am getting really fed up with this.

I purchased the Honeycomb alpha and Bravo hardware back at the beginning of January. While I knew there was going to be a wait I was prepared for this. 

So fast forward now until the 7 April when I get an email from Aerosoft saying that my Alpha and Bravo items had been dispatched. Fantastic!

However that's where it ends. You have used UPS to deliver the goods. I received an email from them regarding import duties which I was prepared for, and these where paid on the 12April in full.

In between that I have received  no less than 12 redelivery dates some for the same date and time.  Because they require a signature, I rearranged my work schedule to suit. that time came and went and no delivery.

I then phoned UPS the following day  and was informed that the packages were still in Germany, Herne-Boernig to be precise, and that they had just cleared customs. The latest delivery date was now the 19 April.

I was not happy as this was nearly 2 weeks since you had shipped the package. But ok , I then today got another email saying that it is now the 20 April. At which point I phoned UPS again as the tracking number said it was still awaiting clearance to export, after a lengthy phone call, I was then given a number to call in Germany to find out what was happening, but this number is not reachable from the UK and they cannot transfer me  from the service centre to the number I was given. I did eventually get a number for the German service centre, but it was obviously in German, and sadly I speak no German.

I appreciate that none of this is really your problem, however if they loose this package it may become your problem, as I will be looking to get a replacement from yourselves which no doubt will then lead to yourselves requiring a refund from UPS. Also if this happens I will not be expecting to wait 4 months for replacement items to be delivered.

If you can offer any help i will happily give you the details of the tracking number and invoice numbers via email not through general forum posts. even if its only calling the number to find out what is happening.

 

Many thanks for any help you may be able to provide
