Accessing the cockpit

Featured Replies

Buying this addon was the best purchase ever!

Without doubt the Tristar was the most beautiful aircraft ever built. I loved working on these amazing birds and miss them!

Anyway, I recently bought a new PC and have reinstalled all my addons including the L1011 but now I cannot access the cockpit. I've tried the usual 'shift C' etc but stay in the outside walkaround mode.

The only way I can get into the cockpit is to spawn a flight on the runway then taxi to a gate and proceed from there.

What am I doing/ not doing? I've looked at so many articles etc I can't see the wood for the trees!!!

Have you attempted to reinstall the aircraft. You can enter the Content Manager and then uninstall as well as disable the aircraft. Then relaunch the sim. Is this occurring with any other 3rd Party/Default/Inibuilds Aircraft Only or just Tristar?

I've now uninstalled and restarted MSFS with no change so I then reinstalled the Tristar MSFS but still the same. After that I disabled it in the Marketplace and spawned a different aircraft. Closed MSFS then restarted with the Tristar but still the same issue. 

In walkaround mode I'm unable to move position let alone access the cockpit.

Any ideas?

When you got the new PC, did you format the drives and fully redownload everything from scratch? (I know you said above you reinstalled addons) and it sounds like something is corrupted somewhere between the sim and the addon itself.

All the base programs such as the Tristar, PMDG etc were all reinstalled via the program from the creator. 

You may be on to something as I ran the programs from the original download at the time of purchase which I have stored on an external hard drive...
