Same thing happening here. The INS-version seems fine, but the FMC is a no-go. I am also using P3D v3.1

EDIT: Spelling.

hi Lord now the fmc works, but I am using old airacs ( the same of the installer) and I want undestand because it works during the flight and not on ground.

That's really odd.. I haven't installed any airac; am using the "standard" one. The FMC is just completely frozen. It won't accept any button being pushed. Bummer.

Hi Lord again, try this: Uninstall the airplane, clean all airplane's folder, reinstall airplane with administrator rules and try it (I did so). If you have problems again, open a ticket with technical support. My airplane now works, I am testing it deeply and I think that it works very  well. I will give you news.

Will have to contact support; it won't work despite reinstall.. :/

Hi
Picked up the TriStar Professional today.
I have the same problems with the FMC as described in this thread.

Any solution to be found?

Hello
Is there an issue with the FMC on this aircraft?
Was interested to purchase until I saw this.
The lack of a reply is a little worrying.
Could we have status update please
regards
Jayel

I recently purchased the L1011 Pro and discovered that the FMC does not work.  Not only that but I do not get text in some of the windows.  For instance, when I select DATA there should be an option to load a saved flight plan, yet the entire screen is blank.  Is there something I need to do to activate the FMC?  I do not have a subscription to Navigraph, is that needed?  I have already submitted a ticket to support on this issue but have not heard back as yet.

I think the FAQ item "Windows 10 - missing text on FMC" can help you with this:

Unfortunately that file is a paint kit, not a windows font file.

Hi,
We've recently changed our support system software and it looks like that link is broken. We're fixing it now.

I did a search for Just Flight L1011 FMS missing font and found a link and was able to download and install the font.  So the FMS is working now.  Thanks for the help.
