Missing Terminal buildings **SOLVED**

I downloaded  it about 12 hours prior to this post

Then you don't have the latest version yet, try again now.

Hi Umberto....
       Latest download manager downloaded and installed whilst anti-virus and firewall disabled. Still as previously reported. No pull down menus.

Have you been asked permission to run the Addon Manager after reinstalling ?

[MWR]

Ummm. Good point! No, on that occasion I wasn't.

Redo the procedure explained in this same thread some message earlier:

http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,11265.msg86814.html#msg86814

Don't skip any step, especially this one:

reply YES to the questions "Do you want to remove the Addon Manager ?" and reply YES to the question "Do you want to remove the Couatl script engine ?

And pay attention if you ARE being asked permission to run both modules at the next restart.

[MWR]

Right. Did that fully. Was asked to authorise both items. FSX now loads until start location view opens and then crashes.

Hi Umberto.
             Further to my last.....I ran the download manager again, this time opting not to download updated AFCADs and FSX now runs but still no pull down menus.

I'm not sure whether this is relevant but I went to the Couati log and saw this timed with the FSX being loaded.

couatl v2.0 (build 2374)
log started on Mon Dec 22 23:24:22 2014

connecting to SimConnect...
connected to FSX
bglmanx non ready yet, waiting.
disconnected from SimConnect.

Possibly a clue?

Just to add. I've just restarted FSX again and then looked at the couati.log. The same message!

It still seems the Addon Manager is being blocked by something, most likely the antivirus. Or, again, there's a problem with your VC++ libraries.

Try using the full installer (GSX or a full scenery installer), because those come with a slightly different version of the Addon Manager that requires a slightly different sub-version of the VC++ libraries, hopefully that one is not missing/corrupted on your system. DO NOT install the Stand-Alone Addon Manager after installing a full installer in this case.

Thanks Umberto.
          Just to clarify. Would you like me to uninstall both GSX and the add on manager before doing this or is an install of the latest GSX 'over the top' acceptable?

Mike

Yes! Success! Everything is back up an running! I have no idea why as I tried this before and it didn't work but It does now and that'll do for me!

Thanks for your patience Umberto and have a good Christmas

Mike
