I have been running FSX Steam edition for a number of years now. Yesterday, I started the program and was greeted with an INSTALL screen on from Steam.

Years of numerous add ons seem to have disappeared. Nice one Steam.

I had no choice but to "install" FSX again, and sure enough, it looks like I've lost everything.

When I run FSX now, I get about 80 error messages concerning my scenery not being found.

Is there any way I can get rid of these, please?

You've mistuned your NAV radio.

 

You're NOT flying CAT III ILS/DME 28R (IGWQ) 111.70 MHz. which will lead you straight in (284°Mag).

 

What you're flying is LDA/DMA 28R (IFNP) 110.75 MHz, an offset approach. This is already visible on Plan-G in the background of your screenshot. Here's the chart.

 

[EDIT]Technically speaking, you didn't mistune, you tuned correctly to the wrong frequency :pilot:.

Thank you for that. I picked up the frequency for 28R from Plan-G3 (map). Must have picked up the wrong one.

Thanks again.

Hi everyone. It's been a while.

As an old FS fan (1982)!, I do most of my flying in Europe.

Decided to fly in the US today and came across this problem.

ILS approach to KSFO RW 28R in and old Boeing 737 200 (CS).

Lined up nicely for the approach at 4000 feet. Localiser active Glide slope acquired nicely.

As I approached the airport, I saw that although my ILS indicator and map showed me perfectly lined up, the runway was askew!

In all my years of flying in FS, I don't think I've ever come across this before.

Any ideas, suggestions please. (FSX Steam Edition)
