Title: boeing 747 tow truck won't move
Post by: Edd260 on July 31, 2012, 05:02:36 pm
Hi guys! I have a problem when using boeing 747 in all airports. other gsx services work just fine but when when I choose to start pusback it showes me the green message ''tow truck in motion'' but tow truck doesn't move.  Any solutions to this one?

Are you sure it's happening at all airports ? This seems to indicate the scenery AFCAD has a "None" set as Pushback preference, you can override this setting with the GSX editor.

I just had this happen when using a PMDG 747X at KDFW. When GSX was initiated, all the necessary equipment appeared and everything worked until I called for pushback, at which point I was told pushback wasn't available at that parking spot. So I cancelled GSX and configured the spot for the necessary right turn on pushback (while also fixing a couple of other things like the unnecessary airstairs at the rear door). I then relaunched GSX and again called for pushback. Although the message on the green information bar told me the tow truck was moving, I could clearly see that it wasn't. After waiting a minute or so, I cancelled GSX again. Although I already had the latest version, I used the pull-down menu to reinstall GSX. When I tried again, the tow truck moved as expected and the pushback was completed perfectly. So I would suggest that you try a simple reinstallation of GSX -- you don't even need to leave FSX to do it.

I can only repeat my previous reply: are you sure it's happening at all airports ? This seems to indicate the scenery AFCAD has a "None" set as Pushback preference, you can override this setting with the GSX editor.

This means: when this happens, could you please check how the pushback preference was ?
