The TinMouse Support Forum

Hey. I have created a new paint for the TM model, but it seems that the paintkit files are not matching the other installed liveries files. The fuselage should be divided for about 4 files, but in the paintkit its not the same. So there are any instruction what to do? I could not find them in the readme file.

I've just discovered that there are no TinMouse cockpit views (other than the panel view) in FSX! Are the FS9 TinMouse cockpit views not compatible in FSX (or did I screw something up in the process of installing the TinMouse in FSX)? I used the FSX version...

Hi all,my tinmouse landing lights are too bright; so there is no ground to see in front of the aircraft during taxiing at night.Any idea how to fix that ? Thanks,Dietmar

Everything going along fine until I started a descent. Descending at 1800fpm, I tryed to slow down, but noticed the AS indicator didnt move. Tried idling the engines, deploying the speedbrakes, disengaged the AT as well as the AP, nothing helped. The airspeed stayed stuck on 280kts even though the AS bug moved and the plane obviously slowed down, as the resulting stall clearly showed.This was my first flight since the update.

hia great thank from Montreal bob for you're great work every thing works perfectly in my mouse expect i have a little issue in the external lighting that's working only in forward view it doesn't workon vc and the other fixed views panelshave you any idea how i can fix this little issue?thanks

OK guys, the V1.31 update is available in the library. Link posted in the pinned FAQ.I'd like to hear back from the people that were having problems with disappearing/nonfunctioning airspeed needles etc to know if this update has solved that problem.CheersBob ScottColonel, USAF (ret)ATP IMEL Gulfstream II-III-IV-VColorado Springs, CO

I have downloaded and installed the new v1.3 Tinmouse after backing up and removing the old version. I am running FS9 on Windows 7 64 bit, and I copied the required FS2AUDIO.DLL into both the Windows\System32, and the Windows\SysWOW64 folders.If I try to load the plane in FS9, I get the attached error message (FS2Audio.DLL failed to load).I would appreciate any assistance on this.Also, I noted that in the FSFSCONV panel folder, the LEFT.BMP was missing (when compared to my backup version).Thanks for the update, and I hope I can get it working!

I have downloaded TinMouse B737-200 in FSX, following stricly the installation instructions. However, the liveries do not show up when I select any of the airplanes. I get just a perfecly white airplane, with transparent wheels.Everything esle works fine, exccept that when changing to 2D view, I get the mesasge that the FSAudio.dell file is not present in Windows System32 (I just ignore it and the panel loads alright).I have Vista Home Premium in my computer, I do not know whether this is an issue.Please let me know what should I do to solve the problem.Eduardo

Unfortunately I get the sound of my B738 elevator trimwheels no longer to hear ... While the .wav files are present? What computer enthusiast knows how I can make them back audible?Please send me an Email to: [email protected] in advance!!!

I like to remove or at least change the 80 knots call.. How can I do that ? Johan

Please post your bug reports here in this thread. I can't fix what I don't know about.

Hi guys, just want to ask if the FD behaviour I noticed in the Sperry 177 version is correct, today, on my first test flight, during the approach to the destination airport, I decided to practice an ILS approach with the autopilot ON, VOR LOC and APP engaged, once stablished on the localizer and the glide slope alive, the plane began descending to runway, but, the flight director was showing me a pitch of 10 degrees nose up, same happened after disengaging the AP to do a manual landing, so, there is no FD indication for any deviation in the Glide Slope path, the V bars remain showing a 10 degrees pitch up.... later, doing more tests, I noticed that the only way to make th…

Hi all.is any one able to make a IAI repaint for the 737? here is a link to some pics of the ACF: http://jetphotos.net/showphotos.php?regsearch=4X-AOTthanks.Idan.

I know you can't give a exact time but is the update almost ready? Any approximation on when?Thanks,Pat

There were a couple people reporting problems with the autobraking system soon after release. I haven't gotten any more reports or details, and it's the last potential V1.30 bug on my current punch list for a v1.31 update.If you are having trouble with autobrakes, please post here, in detail, what the indications are, what version of the sim you're using (FS9 or FSX) and more importantly, how you are set up to actuate brakes in the sim--i.e. FS-assigned key, FS-assigned joystick button, FSUIPC-assigned joystick button, pedal assigned as an axis in FS, etc. I have not been able to reproduce a problem on three machines and a combination of WinXP, Vista64, FS9, and FSX+Acc…

Hi all. http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5281/5306350686_403a46f42c_b.jpg(Heavy link)It seems like I am doing something wrong in the start up procedures cause both the DME and the Air speed indicators don't work. DME: only showing distances up to 20NM. Air speed: usually comes with the AT failure but this flight the AT worked fine. I loaded a new flight with the engines running and it worked fine. when I try to start the plane form cold then I get all sorts of problem whit the avionics. thanks and Happy Christmas. Idan.Israel.

Sir,I have flown the Tinmouse twice now and truly enjoy flying her. My first flight was a short hop from Boise to Salt Lake City and went without a hitch, although I had no TCAS, but a separate thread has solved that issue, and did not use the PDCS because I hadn't read that section of the manual. I did use the CIVA-INS and it too worked flawlessly with the SP177 Panel. I flew at FL250 and mach 0.74Tonight I tried KCMH to KBNA using the CIVA-INS, the PDCS, and a slightly higher altitude or FL320. At some point between 18,000 and 20,000 a very annoying alarm started going off. I did a system scan of the 6-pack caution panel, the overhead, and basically, the cockpit as…

I found the 'Metro US air' repaint in Avsim, but I am looking for just a US Air specific, is there one available anywhere?Tks

Hey.First of all, thanks , Bob! Great project! What you think about a Load Manager for the TM? It would be way better to load an exact amount of cargo/passengers into the aircraft.

Hi,I has an idea regarding the panel organization - I think, but this is just my 0.02€ opinion, it would be nice to have the panels in the main aircraft folder organized like panel, panel.77CIVA, panel.77IGS etc. so that the use only has to add the extension name in the aircraft.cfg file to have a certain panel for a certain plane.This is what I did on my machine so I can easily have the Delta aircraft configured a certain way, the Continental another etc....This way, we will have less excuses to miss out on the wonderful 77 autopilot and easily choose from the different configurations just by picking a different variation of the plane.Happy flying,Olivier

Hi BobJust one question (because I am ignorant) - in the SP-177 AP/AT notes you mention that the plane will do gentle porpoising movements while using LVL CHG. I see it moves about 300'/min at a time.What I wish to know is, does this also occur in the real world airplane ?I would also like to thank you most sincerely for this update - absolutely fantastic. I feel like I'm back in the 60's - THANK YOU.Merry ChristmasRegardsTrevor

Hi BobI am also having problems with the ALT HOLD feature. I have tried various AP setups before pressing the ALT HOLD button - but the airplane either keeps climbing or descending.There must be a problem somewhere.Any thoughts ?RegardsTrevor

I posted earlier but it seems to have not shown upIs the right side of the panel supposed to be cutoff as in this screen shot, I am missing the gear handle here.thanks

Hello all,First of all, thanks very much for this lovely aircraft!!I had a small issue when trying to use the "panel.SP177.ISG.TCAS.cfg" in that no autopilot was showing. After a quick comparison with the other configs I noticed this line was different to how it is in other configs:gauge36=PS737CA!PS737MCP, 694, 350, 590, 130 //SP177 AutopilotI changed it to:gauge36=B732ADV!SP177, 694, 350, 590, 130 //SP177 AutopilotAnd now the autopilot is present. I'm not sure if I'm missing something, but was this change correct?Thanks in advanced,OliverEDIT: nevermind, just found the bug topic :( thanks again for this fantastic bird

Hello AllI have the latest version of TM installed and running.On a couple of test flights I notice that FSNav(which I have set to full auto bar speed control) on other aircraft when i reach BOD will begin to automatically control the descent. of my plane.however with the TM this is not happening. I did notice whilst trying to find a solution in the manual or forums that to descend you have to turn of ALT hold in the AP. If when i reach BOD in my FSNav plan I turn off ALT HOLD will my aircraft descend as other models do automatically under FSNAvs vertical control.Cheers to allAndrew
