Why is this program not working for me?

Trying the FSX demo and cannot get some things to work.

Sound - sound does not work - I can go into the standard non VR FSX and sounds work fine but if I activate Flyinside then there is no sound. I have clicked and unclicked that sound button in the Flyinside menu and restarted FSX several time but no sound when this software is running, not in speakers and not in headphones.

Blue dot - I only have so many minutes to try this in sim but the blue dot does not come on for a couple minutes when in the welcome screen with try or buy options. Also if I activate the menu in the plane the blue dot sometimes will not show up at all.

I really want this software to work but very discouraged at this time.

Try resetting FlyInside by deleting the configuration file in appdata/roaming/flyinside

Thanks that helped but the blue dot takes some time ( a minute or more) to come into the Welcome screen. It does now work better in the menu popup.

I am still having sound problems and would like to know how to completely shut off the flyinside sound and only use my outboard sound?

If you are trying to switch the sound from the Rift/Vive headset to your PC's speakers/headphones, then the windows 10 function is going to be the best bet. If you have windows 10 that is.

Click on the little speaker symbol to the right hand side of you task bar and it should allow you to switch between sound output devices.

If you have a Rift though, are you sure you have the volume turned up on that? The remote control has a "+" and "-" button to control the volume or altneratively, in Oculus Home, go to settings devices and click on the rift picture to be presented with some volume sliders. Just slide those up if they are down to the left.

I dont have a Vive, so cannot tell you how to change the volume on that.

Thanks but now I am back to the no show blue button again. I have unistalled and reinstalled this software 3 times now and that blue button will not show up 70 percent of the time.

Ok I'll pass this on to Dan and the devs to see if they have any ideas whats going on ???

Thanks, I might make a video of it if I can figure out how to get a full screen image of the sim while in VR.
