Flaming Cliffs 3 planes not starting up after update

[Indigene]

Hello, Folks!

To qualify myself, I have the Steam version (OpenBeta), I did a verify integrity of files, and I did some research before posting this. I can't seem to find my particular problem, and if I missed it, I do apologize.

Well, I can't get any of the FC3 planes to start, and it's only started doing this since the last update. I tried to start it in multiplayer and single-player, but to no avail. I played with my nephew on a multiplayer server and he had the same problem.

I usually just press the default start-up buttons and it starts up. I've tried, also, the left and right throttle start-up procedure, ground power, called the Tower for start-up. I even re-mapped my keys, from RShift + Home, to LWIN + Home. The default wouldn't even allow me to move the throttle, however, when I re-mapped it to LWIN+Home, the throttle at least moved forward, but still didn't start.

Either I'm missing something obvious, which I could easily, or there's a new routine to starting said planes, or it might actually be a bug, or...

Anyway, I thank you for your attention, and kindly hope to see this fixed, either in the game or in my brain, or perhaps, both.

**May I have this post deleted, I found the issue, something as simple as forgetting to turn on the power, RShift+L. Certainly not a bug, just in my brain. I'm very sorry for forgetting such a simple thing, and then posting it. I should've went to Wags training session again, and gone through the start-up procedure, it has been a few months since I flew any of the FC3 planes. Again, sorry.**

Thank you, I agree totally, however, not without some solid embarrassment on my part.

We're all human, and we all tend to do silly things  Don't worry about it!

That's like the time I went to fly online with a friend and couldn't get sound through my wireless headphones. Wasted a half hour of his time troubleshooting only to finally realize that I had never plugged the USB wifi adapter in for the headphones.

LOL...yep, that's pretty embarrassing...thanks for making me feel not overly embarrassed. I have over a 1000 hours in DCS, and I totally flubbed it by not thinking about turning on, you know, the POWER. Good grief...

It's amazing how stubborn a human brain can be when unespected things happen. I can't tell you the number of times I forced the launch authorisation only to realize that I had fired on a friendly.

Engine starts with the throttle not at idle also give me trouble.
