skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hi guys- I launched the airbus and it started up ready to fly with the St. Elmo's Fire going ham on the windshield. I figured, alright, I'll just set it to Cold & Dark and it'll get sorted, but in the secret MCDU the Doors, Ground Services, and Aircraft State options are all greyed out. I tried installing SimConnect since that was what fixed it in the FSX version but alas, nothing. Any help is appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emi 5161 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hello, is the parking brake set? It needs to be set, otherwise many options will be greyed out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 If the options are not available it means the conditions are not set. Engines off and Braket set? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Hmm, let me double check and report back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DaveCT2003 2553 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 We're aware of both problems, they were first reported by the Beta Team this morning with the new installer. We're looking at this, and will report back as soon as we can. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Yep, confirmed engines are off and parking brakes set, still nothing. I can put in fuel/pax though, and the St. Elmo's Fire is still rampant across the windshield. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emi 5161 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Alright, standby, we are looking into this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Ok, I have to run some errands so I won't be able to check in until later in the day. But thank you guys for trying to help, can't wait to fly it around!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 Just to make sure... what's the weather engine and what's the weather? Is there any thunder around that could trigger the St-Elmo's Fire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 Negative, just Active Sky Next, and the weather is simply overcast, no thunder is in the forecast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 Okay, thanks for that. It's being looked into. We have seen this in our test but never been able to track it down. If there are other people who see it please report here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 Not needed. We're trying to find out why this happens for a few customers now. Must be something that these systems have in common. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krugeriscious 3 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 G'day! I experience the same issue. No matter if Active Sky Next is enabled or not. The MCDU Screen Options are greyed out and the new Elmo's Fire Effect is going rampage with clear weather set. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
