Hi,

I have recently purchased FSX Space Shuttle, how ever everytime i try to load it, the computer say's there is a DLL file missing. I will resolve that problem when i sort out my line at home. Because of this, i can't start the Launcher. However, you can use the shuttle on free flight mode. Problem is, there doesn't seem to be a way to start the engines, tried Ctrl & E.....nothing!! Also tried the controls on the cockpit but can't find a start switch. Can anybody help?

Thanks!!

Hi,

Looked at the captainsim website, can't really find a technical support section. Does anybody have this add-on with the same problem?

Thanks again!

Which one is it? Is it the justflight space shuttle? if so you need to contact them and get a patch for it. Thats what I had to do to get mine to work.

HI are you trying to start the engines when you are decending, remember this is a space shuttle it is a glider when you are decending from alttiude to landing. The shuttle only uses it's engines for launch which i think this addon does not simulate

Hi,

After reading the manual it does actually say that there are no engines, only rockets for the launch. I got the patch from just flight so all is working. I tell you what though, you can't actually launch the shuttle yourself, there's just a cheesy animation. I feel let down, i was looking forwards to so much more.

Anyway,
Thanks guys for all your help!! 🙂
