I seem to be having the same problem, bought New computer (complete with Vive headset), got it running and FSX installed and running (FSX gold edition plus SP1 and SP2).
Few days (Wed 24/10/18) ago bought "Flyinside" for FSX.
Installed, and it seems to open FSX OK, i.e. clicking on the Flyinside icon opens the normal FSX "splash screen", then after the normal wait the FSX home screen.
Set up a flight, aircraft - my standard aircraft; time and date - daytime, today (or rather yesterday when yesterday was "today*!); Location - EGCJ; Weather - clear skys.
Click on "Fly now" - get the standard "black screen" and the loading progress bar.
So far everything normal as I recognise it for FSX, but now: -
when the loading reaches 100% the FSX screen remains black, and in the Vive headset I see a "compass grid" on the floor and a blue square with three "winking" white bars. (Sometimes - and I don't know what I do to get it - I see the black FSX screen, and a "Waiting for FSX" screen in the headset instead of the blue square.)
I've tried: -
a) running "Flyinside" as "Administrator"
b) choosing a default aircraft (Cessna 172)
Plus of course I've tried rebooting my computer!
Any help/advice gratefully received,
