Strange default configuration

[youngie63]

Hi guys, over the past week or my Sim is defaulting to a strange ‘Cold & Dark’ setup - totally in contrast to the setup l had previously. I am using the PMDG NGXu with P3Dv5.3 without Prosim. I have created a Panel State within PMDG to my liking for the C&D setup and saved accordingly with OC4BAv5 started (SIOC v7.03B2). However, on startup the overhead loads with the correct panel state but when SIOC kicks in it changes my panel with the following configuration:

1. Fuel Crossfeed is ‘On’ - should be Off
2. Left and Right Wipers are set to ''Low - should be Off (not modelled on my sim but have wiper action when power applied)
3. Left and Right Pack switches set to ‘Auto’ - should be Off
4. Capt and FO Flight Directors works in reverse - Off is On and On is Off
5. Auto throttle same as FD’s - Off is On and On is Off
6. AP Disconnect same as FD’s - Off is On and On is Off
7. Capt Main Panel DU switch defaults to Eng Pri - should be Norm
8. FO’s Lower DU set to Eng Pri - should be Norm

From the troubleshooting I’ve done, it appears the SIOC Script is not accepting saved changes and continues to default to the one above. I was able verify the Script being the issue as l managed to change the Eng Hyd'' switches from Off back to On by changing the value from 0 to 1 within the script, however l am unfamiliar on what values need to change for the items mentioned above. I have reviewed the OC4BAv4 YouTube video but with no vocals attached it is difficult to follow.

As stated previously, the sim was working fine with all switches in their correct position. Do you have any idea why this occurred and what changes to the Script are required to have my Panel State restored - only looking to correct the issues stated above. I have created a .txt of the script but not sure what value(s) need to be changed. This can be forwarded if required.

I do have a workaround by loading my specific PMDG panel after SIOC kicks in but this results in SIOC loading a second app - I simply close the error messages and replicated SIOC and l'm good to go - not ideal but it works.

Any assistance greatly appreciated.

To respond I need to know some info about your configuration.

Did you bought the OC4BA from simarket or flightsim4fun?
PMDG B737 driver version?
Script version?
What types of Opencockpits modules do you have connected to the PC?

Sorry, I am not going to use my energy on this as you are not providing the info I ask for and that you do not have valid valid license for using the software.


The EULA says:
- Software Transfer is prohibited. You may NOT transfer your rights under this EULA.

Buy a licensce and you will get support. Sounds fair?

At the time l purchased the sim l wasn’t aware that the OC4BA was licensed nor was there any mention of a license transfer. I was simply told l would require the software in order to run the sim when it was built. I’m am not going to apologise for something l wasn’t aware of.
That said, when l eventually do a reformat of the sim I’ll buy a license then
