Problems with TOPCAT as of Late

Post by Mike Schmitt »

Since this last update, I have noticed the software not loading the aircraft properly. It seems to load the aircraft right upto the max zero weight. Also the PMDG loader will not load the BCF (429MC) to 540000 zfw at all in FSX. Have not tried in FS9 mainly cause I am trying to move away fro that one and completely onto FSX. I realize 429MC is loaded with any of the pax config loaders but it just will not load past a zfw of 515k pounds on the FMC even when the loader shows 535k pounds. Using the Cargo loader on the rest seems to work right.
Anyone else having problems or do i need to set some parameter to allow the proper loading.

I found the solution to anyone else having this problem. The latest update (2.57 had a bug) there is a beta version on the next release out there that appears to fix this. Yea one problem down still have a pesky problem with Default weather and PMDG (the plane wants to always climb at cruise altitudes), even with clear skies set and clicking on weather settings off on FSUIPC, that has plagued me for months now and still no fixes out there for this which continues to hamper me from completely switching over to FSX. I have a feeling it has something to do with FSUIPC but can not find it.

Just updated to V2.57 and now theres a bug ? thanks for the info Mike, incidentally I have had terrible trouble with the weather in FSX, I,ve found the best thing is to download via AS install then save the Weather File and then Load it immediately which takes AS offline and stops the weather engine trying to d/load , it works for me :D
