Various problems (textures, pmdg 737 cargo doors, others)
« on: August 19, 2022, 01:33:54 am »
Hello again.

So, now the updater seems to work again out of the blue (see other post in other topic about installer error) but im still getting weird issues.

Being

1. Texture issues.

2. PMDG 737 Cargo doors with GSX vehicles non funtional

When i spawn at lets say EDDK from Aerosoft, in the pmdg 737 cargo, start the deboarding process and look at the fmc door options, it shows the cargo door would be open. It isnt though. And manually using the button to switch does nothing. The "animation" in the fmc itself (i mean the display of the text "door opening" etc) works and goes from closed to open/vise versa) works but the door is not acting at all.

3. i cannot change my parking position at all.

When i start the customizer, the opoup appears and shows the gates/parking like im used to from P3D. But when i change from lets say Gate E41. It shows it would be gate or parking, not sure atm. Then i set it to cargo and hit apply.
Now whats happening is that a popup appears, asking be if i want to remove all walkers. No matter what i do now, click yes or close popup, nothing is changing.
The parking is no gate and the interface to change the parking doesnt open too.

Ill attach the logs of both log files. There are a few errors listed, yup.

That's NOT a GSX problem ! You confirmed it yourself, saying even if you manually click the FMC buttons, the doors don't open. It's a known bug PMDG has acknowledged to be an issue that happened with their last update:

Thanks, then i missed that. I fly this plane often but when i think about it, maybe i never opened that main cargo door in the last weeks.

That would solve one of the issues then.^^

EDIT: maybe i should add nr 4 too:

4. the couatl is crashing after moving the airplane to another parking spot (and probably other tasks cause the same, i had to restart many times by now. TBP, its not crashing out of the taskmenu. But it simply starts reacting when hitting GSX in the menu.

I think the installation of the 2nd package, gsx-world-of-jeways, has failed for some reason, most likely server load.

This would explain the missing textures for the driver and the failure to find the Fuel Hydrant I see in your log. Try to uninstall and reinstall, and notice if you see any error reported while installing.

Yes, you were right. The Jetways folder was missing. As mentioned in the other topic, i did the reinstallation process of GSX now and the jetways package seems to be installed correctly. From first look at least.

Sadly im still getting the issues described above. At least the one where im unable to edit parking.

When i change a parking spot, trying to hit apply it asks me if i want to remove all workers. And if i press yes there nothing is happening. The editor isnt opening.

This time the error in the log is

Error: no model of type BaggageTractor installed

And the apron now looks like this. Notice the ground lefthandside

Check the copyright year for the GSX Settings page, if it's not 2022, you still got the old version from the servers.
