FMC Unlock Code Page not showing #119

Bug Report

FMC Unlock Code Page not showing

Bug Description

I had the same problem occurring a few months back. My issue is that the page which you enter your code in on the FMC in order to unlock the other panels is not showing when I load up the page. I just have the menu page. Is there a specific page I need to go to in order to unlock the systems or is the page supposed to show up by default (which means it would be a bug).

Version

To Reproduce

Please describe how to reproduce this bug. Load the Stratosphere 777 X-Plane 12 version. Click OK to the disclaimer to load up the FMC itself.

Visual Reference

If applicable, add screenshots or videos to help explain your problem. Your log.txt and a screenshot of the black console window are very helpful for fixing bugs.

Are the other displays unlocked?

geekyaussie2083 commented 7 months ago

No.

I can see some of the displays behind the instructions display, i.e. the eicas. Should I maybe delete those png files or do I still need to activate the displays through the FMC? I never remember unlocking the systems since you guys released your custom systems a few months back. I never remember seeing the page attached in the image.

uh... I'd just try reinstalling the 777 and checking the X-Plane 12 -> Output -> preferences folder and deleting any 777 related files in there. if it still doesn't work, let me know

If you delete the readme texture it will leave like a placeholder thing on all the displays

You’re a legend. Although the “page” for activation was instead displaying as the menu page, I simply was able to enter the code in the bottom left corner (which it didn’t do before) and all the systems activated. I really appreciate your help.

No problem, glad you figured it out.

We wanted to get people to actually read the readme so we thought to try "locking" the aircraft until the user finds the code instructions in the readme (and hopefully finds answers to any other questions they may have while looking for it ;) ) All it does is put an image over the displays and doesn't let you do anything on the FMC (and if you were to delete said texture, x-plane has a sort of missing texture thing that will go in its place).

Anyway, once again, glad you got it working!
