AVSIM does not currently host image posting via the attachment system so you will have to link your image from a 3rd party hosting provider such as ImgBB, Postimage.org, FunkyIMG.com, Photobucket, ImageShack, Google, OneDrive, Imgur, or, the one I use FS Files.org - http://fsfiles.org/flightsimshotsv2/.

More information at the following site - https://www.lifewire.com/free-image-hosting-sites-3486329 Once you upload your image to a hosting provider, the image should have a box in one of the corners that you can check. Once checked, you should be given the option to "get an embed code". Click o…

hello I am coming back to FS after several years of interruption. Sveral years ago I was a fan of FS2004 I have downloaded FSX STEAM but have a lot of questions Years ago there was a FS2004 general FAQ on this site to answer a lot of installation / fine tuning .. is there a general FAQ for FSX on this site? I cannot locate it. thanks for help.

For Uninstalling/Reinstalling FSX/Acceleration (boxed version), recommend the guide at the following link - https://support.precisionmanuals.com/kb/a87/how-to-uninstall-and-reinstall-fsx.aspx. When reinstalling, you may get a 1722 and/or 1603 error. When you complete the installation of FSX, the 1722 error may popup. Click okay and the 1603 error will show up. When you click okay for the 1603 error, Windows will roll back the installation and you will have to reinstall FSX again. The following provides instructions for fixing these errors: Click on the search bar and type Run and open up the Run command. Type regedit. This will open up the System Registry.…

This is the FSX/FSX-SE Forum for users of FSX. Members posting here can discuss subjects about FSX and FSX add-ons. When members recommend moving to another simulator such as P3D or X-Plane, those discussions will be removed as they only result in inciting and trolling comments. Please try to keep your discussions on-topic with the OP. If a member is having issues with OOM's, then try to answer his question without telling them to move to P3DV4 as that only gets them excited and the topic begins to go South from there. Those responses will be removed by the AVSIM Moderating Team. If a FSX-user has a question about P3D or X-Plane, those questions should be posted…

Beta testers, posting in the AVSIM Forums, should make everyone aware of your affiliation(s) in your signature so our membership can see where you are coming from when posting. In the past we asked developers to let us know if they are developers so members can see the individuals affiliation when posting. We never did this for beta testers but, ethically and morally, letting our membership know who you represent or work for should be included in your signature. Beta testers should be proud to show they are beta testing products! I have seen a lot of outstanding banners in signatures showing the product with the words "Beta Tester" inside. That's a good idea but I am…

Could anyone tell me what I should set my bufferpools to for a Nvidia GTX960 with 1GB VRAM? My GTX980 bit the dust and had to go back to the 960. The 980 was working fine with bufferpools set at 0, but now with the 960, it still runs without too much stuttering, but I keep getting anoying screen flashes, probably because I dropped from 4GB VRAM to 1GB VRAM, I am waiting to find another 980 at a decent price to replace the one that crapped, for now I have to use the 960 but these screen flashes are distracting. I've been playing around with the bufferpools but I either get serious stutters or I get really bad screen flashes. What would be a good "sweet-spot" setting for my…

Im just curious what the difference, if any, is between Flight Sim X and the Steam Edition. Just curious if the Steam edition is better.

Good day! I have purchased the C441 from Flysimware, and downloaded FSX, because it's not compatible with MFS2024, or 2020 from what I know? I have the Saitek yoke and rudders, and the Bravo Throttle quadrant, but I'm having a hard time setting up the controls to work optimally with the aircraft. Looking for guidance, videos' tips on how to do this properly. (I am technically challenged, so need something straightforward).. or somebody who has experience with this who can guide me? Thanks !

Hi All, Some good but sad news for simmers. After nearly 15 years on line, FSXMissionsHangar.com will be closing the hangar doors. We've got literally hundreds of FREE, HighQuality missions for the taking. I hate to see this work slip into oblivion when our last day is done... thus the free downloads to all. We've traditionally charged $10 annually for the downloads, but now they're yours for the taking and sharing. You'll need to still register an account with a legit email address, but that's it. Enjoy and help preserve and share this exciting source of missions. Founder and Administrator, Jake Rogers

Fsx keeps rendering AI models, untill they are smaller than 1px in size. This is actually the main FPS killer for me, as I don`t even lose much FPS on the AI processing itself. I tried the SmallPartRejectRadius tweak, but it only seems to affect the buildings. Any way I can make FSX stop rendering the models when they are smaller than 6px in size?

Hello all, Well, it seems FSX-SE doesn´t like to run like in previous times under WIN10. I built a new AMD system (not high end, but more than enough for FSX) and the problem is VAS! We all know or knew this problem. I got it under control using DX10 with SteveFixer in Windows 10. Now, in Windows 11 25H2, nogo. I have a home airport which I really know very well with all settings and weather, GSX2 with or without traffic etc. etc. Of course it was exciting using VAS Monitor, but it was controlable. The same setup in Windows 11, freshly installed, VAS is a killer. That is very disappointing. Al efforts did not succeed. Windows 11, I love it. Be careful

Hi I use the excellent AIG traffic for P3D V4.5 as i found Ultimate Traffic Live a bit disappointing and very out of date. I still dabble in flying FSX from time to time and I wondered if its at all possible to get AIG traffic working in FSX so i can ditch UTL entirely. I know the one click install method does not work ( I only use BGL flightplans). Is it possible at all to use the flight plans and models from my P3D installation in FSX? and if so how would this be done? I am not sure if this is possible but I thought no harm in asking, Kind regards Darran

Has anyone tried this scenery? I installed it and it is very good except there is a firehouse and water tower on runway16/34. Just wondering if anyone has the same problem and did you find a way to remove or relocate them.

In my previous iteration of FSX/A (Windows 7 64) the radio towers were much too high, reaching towards the sky. Someone had fixed that and made the fix freely available for download. I had the file on my previous computer, but can no longer find it. Perhaps someone has the file or the download link. Thank you

a2a stable of airplanes refuse to accept my simconnect versions, or perhaps I should say sometimes they work, but mostly not. These are the freely downloadable simconnect versions available to everyone. I have all of the simconnect versions. I'd like to say I downloaded all from Just Flight recently, but I already had every one of the files. It's only a2a planes. No joy at a2a forums, I'm told it's my fault for still using FSX/A. That may or may not be since I'm now using Windows 11, but that's now how I purchased the planes. These planes worked perfectly with FSX/A when I was using Windows 7 64. I don't have the time to invest in another (newer) simul…

Hi all, I'm new to this flightsim thing as I only just got a copy of FSX (Gold edition). After flying a few missions and doing a bunch of lessons I was excited to find out I could create my own missions with the SDK Mission Creation Kit. I know very little about programming and coding, but if I stick at something long enough I can usually figure stuff out. I'm proud to say I completed the Mission Creation Tutorial (after 3 attempts getting it wrong) and now I've created a couple of missions for myself. I admit there's been a lot of trial and error involved. One of the missions requires dropping off a crate at a location (like dropping off the apple crates in the Resort …

Hey everyone I am looking for a SAAD A330-900 Air Mauritius repaint. The original download for it has been taken down. Does anyone have it or know where I can get it? Thanks.

I have been very surprised how much clearer and defined my graphics are since updating to Windows 11. AA is better despite the same settings I had with Windows 10 and my cockpit dials have been improved no end. Has anyone else found this to be the case? I have an MSI Ventus OC XS 1660GTX 6GB running with an i5 4690 350Ghz - on a 32" Monitor at 1960 x 1080 (at least I think that's the figures without checking lol) Gotta say I am well impressed by the improvement

I am looking for ai B707 For FSX i tried to run ai703v187 from my FS9 but it did not appear in fsx is there is a way to convert fs9 ai to be able to work in FSX ??

I'm not sure where to post this. I'm new here. I just recently upgraded my system with some new hardware and such. Here's what I have: Optiplex980 desktop PC, 2.9GHz CPU, 16GB RAM(MAX), GTX980Ti GPU with 4GB VRAM, I have fsx installed on a 250GB SSD. I'm flying mostly default planes, I do have a few 3rd party aircraft and ground vehicles, but al have worked fine in the past. Ok, before the upgrade I had only 12GB RAM ,a 2.4GHz CPU and a GTX960 1GB VRAM. FSX ran ok on that but only gave a FPS of 8 or 9. Why am I still getting low FPS around 9 or 10 sometimes maybe up to 16 if I ain't movin' . I've set all my sliders to min and still get low FPS. I thought with …

Ive been scouring the web for over an hour and I can't find a single EFIV for FSX anywhere! I wasnt expecting that. Please help!

Hello, I’m trying to run multiple monitors with my copy of Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition, but whenever I drag anything (a window or the kneeboard) to another display it turns into a weird square, the game freezes, and then crashes a few seconds later. This happens in both fullscreen and windowed mode. Any ideas on how to fix this? My system is an i7-4790K (stock) with a GTX 970.
