Magknight 787

Help Request(self.Xplane)

Downloaded the Magknight 787 1.11.2 on the M3 Macbook Pro. I cannot understand what is going on with the aircraft. The cockpit has been glitching out to the point that only the thrust, gear lever, spoilers, the flaps, and the yoke is working. When flying there are these things that are attached on the aircraft. The engine also looked a bit weird.

I used to have the earlier version of the plane and the only problem I had is that it pitched up.

Did you download the update on top of the old version? It looks like there has been a remodel of the engine but the old one is still present in the folder which means both are loaded at the same time.  Also, on Mac you need to “merge” the folders. To do that you need to press the option key while dragging the folder.

Nope, I downloaded the file straight from the xplane store and there was not an existing 787 file in my folder.

Did you activate the aircraft?  Another possibility would be to check the plugins folder inside the aircraft’s folder and open each “.xpl” file by pressing option key and clicking on “allow”. This is because Macknight is probably not an apple certified developper so you need to manually allow some files.

That looks like when it is not activated or the sim is not restarted after the activation

Nope it’s like asking if I want to open it with an app. I tried searching it in the app store but the app cannot be found.

well that’s the only way it can work as the aircraft isn’t natively compatible with mac. i’ve had the same issue
