GSX Wont Work After Live Update???
« on: July 06, 2020, 02:21:23 am »
Hi, Umberto, I'm Having Problems With GSX After A Live Update I Have Identified That It Was GSX After Uninstalling And Reinstalling P3DV4 And Add-ons

I am also seeing a problem with the PMDG 777 during pushback that started after the June 29th update.  Once the pushback starts, the BRAKE light starts flashing and the pushback back "stutters" as if I was tapping the toe brakes.  The issue goes away as soon as the pushback ends.  This happens at any airport I choose, and only happens with the PMDG 777.  I have executed pushbacks using the PMDG pushback from the FMC, and with FSX native pushback without a problem.  It only occurs when I use the GSX pushback.

We added a fix that should improve the pushback in the PMDG 747 and 737, but I couldn't test it with the 777, perhaps they use a different method, try to disable the "Dummy Pushback" option in the GSX airplane configuration and see if it works better.

Getting the same issue on pushback in FSXSE with the PMDG 777,747-8 seems like the brake is being continually pressed,making the pushback stutter.

Thanks

Getting the same issue on pushback in FSXSE with the PMDG 777,747-8 seems like the brake is being continually pressed,making the pushback stutter.

The parking brake is not continuously pressed. To fix the cockpit vibrations caused by some kind of PMDG system that PMDG doesn't disable during the pushback, GSX is sending a *VERY* light ( about 2% strength ) push on brakes every second, and this make the pushback perfectly smooth with not stutters with the PMDG 747 and 737.

I haven't tried the 777, which is why I asked if disabling the "dummy pushback event" option in the airplane configuration page fixes the problem because, with the option disabled, GSX WILL NOT send anything, it will just do a standard pushback like any other airplane. Of course, you'll get the PMDG vibrations, but there's nothing we can do about it, other than doing that light press on brakes every second.

Sorry, when you quoted the one reply, I hadn't checked to see who posted the initial post and thought it was you. And this is exactly why people shouldn't jump into a thread to bring up a completely different issue, it causes too much confusion, and it looks like Umberto didn't even respond to it.

If with "this", you mean GSX supposedly not working after the latest update, it's difficult to say, since it surely doesn't happen.

The usual suggestions:

- Configure the antivirus to exclude the whole Addon Manager folder from scanning

- Disable the firewall

- Run the FSDT Live Update again

Hi Umberto P3DV4 Still Won't Run When GSX Is Installed I Did All The Steps You Told Me And It Still Did Not Work, However, I Think I Have A New Culprit, When It Gets To The SODE Part Of The Installation It Gives This Error, Thanks For All The Help So Far. :)

You are probably confusing "culprit" with "victim". BOTH GSX AND SODE are just reporting how messed up your simulator install is, they are just the messengers: don't shoot the messenger.

I suggest uninstall/reinstall P3D from scratch, doing a clean install, which means:

- Uninstall the sim from the Windows Control Panel

- Remove ALL these folders:

%APPDATA%\Lochkeed Martin\Prepar3D V4
%LOCALAPPDATA%\Lochkeed Martin\Prepar3D V4
%PROGRAMDATA%\Lochkeed Martin\Prepar3D V4

- Reinstall using the latest P3D4 FULL installer.
