Since purchasing my new system (ORSUMMM!!!) with W10 - Home (64bit) and installing FSX-SE I have been viewing FSX no doubt as it was intended to be seen ~~~ MEGA

However (isn't there always a "however"?), After installing FSTramp and running the database I attempt to load/run FSX and then see an error message that (words to the effect)

FSTramp failed to install ~ fstramp.dll not recommended.
Do you wish to go ahead - not recommended.
Contact FSInsider.com for more information.

So I check "yes" and the sim just shuts down!
So here I am ~~~ anybody have any clues about this?

FSTramp DOES install, hence the database creation is available - the "failure" only comes about when trying to load the Sim

I am "running as administrator".

FSTramp used to run perfectly on the old tried, tested and trusted XP system and also runs without issues on my W7 lap-top.

I am running FSCommander for use with the Heavies but for low-and-slow there was nothing better than FSTramp by virtue of its elevation/topography effect on the screen. Perfect for exploring those remote nooks and crannies around the world

Anybody any ideas or (better yet) a solution?

Happy flying ~~~

I have the upgraded, pay-ware, version of FS Tramp, (to show the topography) with its Licence Key, and it works fine in my Windows 8.1 computer, details below.

(FS Tramp is the follow-up version of FS 2002 and FS 2004; "FS Navigator" for FSX).

(Make sure you have the Licence Key safely stored!)

My other freeware map is my Plan-G map, which also shows some limited topography.

I don't use Windows 10 so I am note sure about that OS!

Paul.... ....!

Note: "FS Tramp" should appear in; "Add-ons" drop-down menu in the FSX Flight Sim.

My FSTramp is the paid-for-version...

I prefer FSTramp to Plan-G because FST runs without need for an internet connection

Handy for when I am away from home or otherwise out-of-range of a WiFi connection.

But thanks for your interest anyway
