If you're posting in the general forum it is an indication that you haven't been to the support forum where the answers are more likely to be. For access please consult your product manual.

All the best - Osh

Now that we are here our devs will correct me if I'm wrong, but could it be to do withdirectx?
A similar problem required

The advice was to download and let it unpack to a temporary folder of your choice. Then run the DXSETUP.exe from that folder.

Tried Shift 2? The T-38 doesn’t use directX in its config manager so that doesn’t apply.

yes shift-2 works perfectly.All shift 1,2,3 worked in 3.14 , 3.15 version. this lastest version it does not. Has me confused and frustrated. I have never checked the direct box and have never used it. Thank you for info. maybe you can tell me if i have submitted a service ticket or not. can not remember if i submitted one or not, if you are from Milviz.

dropped the "T_38 base" in the panel file of the t-38. overwrote the panel cfg. with the file provided.Now i can see through the inst. panel when I load the aircraft,and the pilots have no helmet. I have very limited computer skill, new at this. I tried to attach the panel file not sure if it went thru or not,to show what I did.message: "The extension cfg is not allowed." I also have flight1 GTN750 installed.also getting error message about sound dll, then the sim. crashed.
