I have FSX running again. I did a repair install and that fixed some the problems I was having. I will leave the shaders alone for now.

Hello
I have a possible issue. Not sure if to do with weather settings but having a short flight yesterday the aircraft flies with some undercarriage spray under the aircraft. You know the spray that you get on a runway on dampish take off. After wheels up it is still there. I took a screenshot. Will take another look.

Rubbish. Just pause the sim and wait.
Unless you deleted the contents of the wrong folder. And even then you can recover them.

Well I deleted the shader files, and now everything is blank.
 It looks like I will have to reinstall FSX.

I now realize I need to do some house keeping to keep the shaders in order. I thought computer did on its own. I found the shader folders, there are 5 of them. I understand if I delete the files in these folders, FSX will run better. All I have done so far is right click and hit refresh. I did notice improvement in FSX performance.
The Fokker flies and looks great now, I would like to see more US airlines liveries. I don't mind flying Northwest around but I would like to see a United Express/Air Wisconsin. Thanks for the help. |

I have her and find her very nice indeed. No issues for me, although I tend to make it a habbit to clear my shaders folder every month or so, or when graphics issues arise.
I have found some minor stuff: some buttons and knobs reacting to left- or right clicks, while others and/or work with the mousewheel. Also the fueltrimmers increase when turning the switch to decrease and vice versa. Small stuff, really like her from what I can tell of 30 minutes fooling around with her.

William, what was done so you DO have panels etc? The JF support team tried everything to solve the issues i'm having with the F27, but without any luck. What helped you?

What did you do, for the benefit of others in case they have the same issue?

Hello all
Been waiting for the Fokker F27 for some time now. Just purchased it a few minutes ago and confirm that all loads for me. No graphic issues. I do have a high spec machine. Departed Aberdeen with 80fps. Not had time to play around but will do so at the weekend.  Best regards Gary

It doesn't sound like the aircraft is at fault, insofar as other users have installed and run the aircraft successfully.
I would suggest that as you have had a similar experience with other add-ons, that there may be a shader issue on your system, as if it's not being drawn correctly (ie. It's all there but your system isn't drawing it on screen) as opposed to sections of the aircraft missing due to an installation problem. If the installer was this corrupt, I'd expect it to not run at all. Try deleting and regenerating (rebuilding) your FSX shader cache (Google it to finding how), and try again. You mention a laptop; what is the configuration of this (CPU, speed, RAM, video card) as generally laptops cannot run FSX as well as more powerful PC systems. JF support are generally good, so definitely contact them. |

Provide system specs and what other (scenery) addons you have installed. Sounds like your system cannot keep up - it's perfectly normal for the aircraft to have delayed display of parts as it first loads the textures , but after a few seconds it should be complete. if you have actual disappearing textures i.e. they appear then disappear, that is almost always a resources issue.

William, did you contact Support? I hope you did, just to make clear to Just Flight that something is seriously wrong with this release.

Strange enough, as i wrote, I had fixed the invissible problem with the JF/AH Chipmunk. BUT, yesterday I loaded it again and it was invissible again. My last AH product, the Globe Swift completely deleted my main effects folder when uninstalling. Aeroplane heaven recognized that it was their fault, but my effects folder is empty
 So, I´ve been waiting for the the Fokker 27 for month and I´m not going to get it at least for now. The 2 products that I have which were made by Aeroplane Heaven came with serious problems. A shame, because the F27 looks sweet. I hope that JF costumer service gives you guys the help you deserve.
