FG 2.4.0 Not Responding

Postby dnewberry » Sun Oct 09, 2011 6:32 am

Glad to see the new effort. Congrats. I've enjoyed 2.0 for some time now.

The problem: I start FGRun and click Run on the Wizard. Command window pops up along with the GUI. But the GUI freezes with a Title of "FlightGear (Not Responding)" -- a Windows thing. Also, the command window has only progressed to this point...

Processing command line arguments
KI266 dme indicator #0 initialized
loading scenario 'nimitz_demo'
creating 3D noise texture... DONE
Initializing Nasal Electrical System
power up

--- and goes no further.

Thanks so much! I uninstalled (since changing attributes from Windows Explorer wasn't sufficient in my case) and reinstalled choosing 'Run as Administrator'. It's running now. (Probably somewhere in the FAQs, but I must have glossed over it).

Cheers!
