Steam must be running...

Postby FR9Ford » Wed Oct 11, 2017 7:24 pm

I've been using FlyInside for several months with no issues, however over the past few weeks I've run into an issue and I can't seem to get around it. When I launch FlyInside, X-Plane starts to load, then it says steam must be running to use this or something, I click understood and it closes out. I can launch X-Plane from Steam and use it on my monitors just fine. I've tried starting Steam as an Admin, and FlyInside to no avail. I checked game files with Steam and that also didn't work. I updated my FlyInside software, and that too also did not work. So now, I'm lost as to what to do.

So you are having problems with FSX or with X-Plane?

Why Stephan is asking is because you have posted in the FSX forum :) If it's xplane then ensure you have pointed Flyinside to the right exe. This is under the steamapps/common file tree.

That's ok mate I'll move it down to the right forum when you read this. Are you opted into steam beta ? If yes can you try to uncheck that option for me ? Right click on steam vr and it's under the list there in properties.

Under library in steam look for VR, click on that and you should see steam VR in the list. Right click on it, go to properties and you'll see betas in the headings. Click on that header and in the drop down make sure it says "OPT out of betas"

What version Flyinside are you using ?

Okay, I am and have been opted out of steam vr beta. I'm running the newest version of Flyinside. 1.8 I think?
