Hi,
Is there a way to load the aircraft in cold & Dark mode without the GPU?

    Hello,

    No there is not. But you can create a scenario of a cold and dark state without the GPU attached. Downside is you'll have to reposition the aircraft to your airport of choice since the scenario creation is based on a set environment.

    For me, the Dash loads 98% in C&D mode without a GPU already connected. In 2% and for no apparent reason for me, the GPU is already connected in C&D mode.

    Hi,

    In the scriptLib directory of the Q400 you find the settings for the several scenarios. The File ccColdAndDark.mgs sets the parameters. You might try to set the variable #electricsData_->gpuRequested in the Electrics section to zero. I have not tested it, as I have set it to 1 for me. With this setting I always have a GPU connected, what I prefer.
