PAD CL604 wont load

[alb469]

Aircraft installs ok and shows up in the list but when you select fly now it wont load and an error message appears.However by selecting a different aircraft and loading it in so it appears at a runway and then going to "Select Aircraft" and calling up the cl604 it appears normally. Had this problem once before a few years ago but cant remember the cure. [smiley=dankk2.gif]

what was the error message that you get? so that we know what we are dealing with...

also, where did you get the craft from?? Provide a link.

[alb469]

I remembered what the fix was. I put in a panel from another PAD aircraft not the 604 and all is now okay.Would have preferred to use the supplied panel but I don't have the computer smarts for that.

[Capt.Propwash]

again. where did you get the aircraft???? Maybe someone else can download, figure out what the problem is, and then tell you what you need to do to use the original panel.

Since the title of the thread is "PAD CL604 wont load" it is safe to assume the OP is referring to the Premier Aircraft Design CL604.

Did you use the FSX model or the FS9 model?

The FSX model is available here- http://www.premaircraft.com/CL604_FSX/C ... index.html

If you are having troubles with one of these, can you tell us which one?

Or better yet, have you asked PAD?

i did take it as the PAD from that site, and i went and downloaded the Bombardier/Canadair CL-604 .

[alb469]

Yes it is from  PAD the fsx version. It was downloaded from their site.When fly now is selected the loading texture appears but nothing happens then the error message appears. I tried all the 604's for fsx same problem.What I did not try was starting from a different airport. My starting point was rwy 24 at CYTR. Maybe that has  something to do with it. Will reinstall the original panel and try it.

Tried again different airport same problem. I don't know how to get the error message copied so I can send it here.But  for sure its something in the fsx panel  my computer does not like.

If the error message is the same as the one on the left in the pic below, go ahead and click on "Run".

You will then see the message on the right, click on "Yes".

This is common when loading planes with gauges from earlier sim versions and you only have to do it the first time you load the plane.

i did notice when i hit FLY NOW, that the simulator did take an extremely long time to load which is generally uncommon, usually it only takes 10-15 seconds to load up, but for whatever reason with this craft it takes in the neighborhood of 1 min!!!  so yes, for me, there is a problem 'there'.

will keep searching for a possible answer though.
