cfs1 mission and campaigns

[fulvio]

well, I do not know why but i'm having problems while trying to play both missions and campaigns.  after selectioned the mission, for example, the screen gets all black and then  there it comes a note telling me that a cfs module problem has occurred, and that a note will be sent to microsoft. now after this I must turn off the game and restart all together. but still the missions won't start! any idea why out there? thanks, but since i got xp i'm having all sort of small problems

If these are 3rd party missions that worked before you installed WinXP my first thought is that some of the aircraft are incompatible with WinXP. Try selecting them in Free Flight. If you get an error try patching the MDL files of affected aircraft with the MDL Repair utility. http://www.simviation.com/fs2000utilities_ess2.htm

If this is not the problem I suggest you Uninstall/Install CFS1.

thanks hagar, i've tried to get the program you told me about, unfortunately the page doesn't show. could any one find the program for me somewhere? i've tried to uninstal- instal cfs1 many times already. but it doesn't solve the problem. yes the mission wich do not work are 3rd party ones. ciao

The page from my link loads fine for me. I just checked it. Try this one. It's in the FS2002 section but it's the same utility. http://www.simviation.com/fs2002utilities_ess1.htm

If that doesn't work for you here's a direct link to the file. ftp://63.217.28.218/1misc/MDLRepair201.zip

thanks hagar, I've managed to uninstall and re-install cfs1 successfully, now i'll try to re install my 3rd party missions, if the problem should arise again i'll use the program you gave me. thanks for now. ciao
