General discussion for CFS2 - WW 2 Pacific Theater

guns won't stop-can't uninstall

Postby frenchbuck » Thu Jan 12, 2006 1:05 pm

when i take my first shots at an enemy aircraft, the guns continue to fire even though I release the trigger. It is not my joystick because it works fine in all my other flight sims. I was going to un-install the game but cfs 2 does not even show up in the add remove menu. Sure could use some help guys. ???

Have you tried reassigning all key commands to the default? I seem to recall having a similar problem with 2 at one point but cannot remember how I fixed it.

In my experience all programs have occasionally Hickups. This is basicaly a PC oriented general problem. No matter how good a program or PC may be. It on occasions run into some kind of snafu.

The best way to fix it is either by reinstalling it like Hadgar suggested or have a back that is recently working well and copy and paste over the folder you are using to run CFS2.

Believe me I have many problems this way. I also suggest that if you have enough hard drive space to always backup every thing with a backup CFS2 Folder.

That should fix your problem.

The best way in my opinion is to follow Hadgar instrucion on how to reinstall.

Caution: this reinstall will effect your for basic scenery. It will activate the original World scenery. So if you are Stiz or someone elses as your basic scenery. Please back it up. Then copy and paste back on World Scenery Folder. Everything else including your add on planes should show up. Just be careful to to follow the instructions. Its easier than it sound. Do not be afraid and do it and you will see what I mean.
