hornetdriver25 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Hey everybody, Just downloaded the A-12A by Tim Conrad, and every time I try to select it in the sim, my sim crashes, can anyone help me?

mrzippy Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Yes I am, is that the problem? Nope, it says in the description that Acceleration is required. What does your events log say about the error you are getting? Flyable for me, but no instrument displays because I don't have Acceleration. Still thinking about a new flightsim only computer!

f16jockey_2 Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Run FSX as administrator ? And you could check the error log for more details. Wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
familton Posted September 1, 2015 Share Posted September 1, 2015 Look in your Gauges folder and make sure you have the fa-18.dll in it. The panel.cfg requires it. Tim did not mention this. If it is not there do a search in FSX for it and put it in the Gauges folder or the A-12A panel folder. Bob. Mine works fine in Acceleration.

Chuck B Was the FA-18.dll in the FSX gauges folder by default when Acceleration was installed or was it in the FA-18 panel folder? Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With me it's in the Gauges folder, and there alone. Not in the panel folder. Wim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wim Then the A-12A should work for him as long as he has Acceleration installed. I was not sure if it was there by default. I put all my gauges in the Gauges folder so I can use them in other planes as I want. Bob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hornetdriver25 Posted September 2, 2015 Author Share Posted September 2, 2015 I do have acceleration, I have the FA-18.dll and it still is not working, my task manager just says not responding. Where can I find the error logs? And should I just try and re-download it?
