  1. I want to do a two leg flight, for fun, and I wanted to stay in the sim while I did it, is it possible to add a second leg to your flight?

  3. I decided to obtain some more accurate vegetation - thank you Turbulent. On the whole TF is a beautiful add-on. However (and to be fair, I half expected this before I purchased the add-on) it doesn't display over VFR Real photoreal scenery which I have for the UK. Is it the case that TF autogen will not work over photoreal at all? Thanks.

    Hi, Just purchased the v9 of fsmeteo running fsx with win7-64. Connect to server and get local metar and then goes to setting global weather & K61W -please wait. Program just hangs-hrs. Tried default & local connection and all 3 weather modes-fsmeteo,vatsim,ivao. Sent e-mail to Marc to no avail. Any help would be appreciated. Thank-You

    So, should I get myself an early Christmas present? Would it bring my rig to its knees, given that some UK2000 airports lower my FPS in simple aircraft to below 20 on occasion (UK2000 is very FPS friendly imho, plus Manchester & Liverpool are my "local" airports :) ). Over default areas I'm seeing a locked 30 fps, so apart from the UK and big international airport add-ons elsewhere I don't think there'd be a problem. For the most part, having been simming since Zx Spectrum days, I can live with a bit of stutter. I like the idea of COTS... and Betty bringing me a coffee or something to eat during the flights .... and the big radial sounds! i5 950 3.06GHz GTX9…

    Apologies slight newbie here - have hunted around and not found any reports of issues but was hoping someone might be able to assist... We've been trying to get AS16 working, but after a config file rebuild and trying all the fixes we've found online regarding firewall/anti-virus exception rules, we're still getting a "known" crash where it can't load ambient weather. Frustrating as it is, we just can't seem to resolve it, so we've reverted back to FSOpen Clouds, which we realised we needed a new licence key for, so we've been onto the website and paid £5 for a yearly subscription. Yet we've not received the licence key. I've chased their email and also message…

  9. Okay so I hope that I am able to have this make sense because this is extremely confusing to explain. So a few weeks ago I downloaded Imaginesims Atlanta scenery for FSX and I had a TON of trouble trying to install it and after awhile I gave it up as a lost cause. So then a couple of days ago I decided that I would try and install it again. So I read through the manuals and scoured the internet and I finally figured out what I had done wrong. After successfully installing it I went up to my FSX tool bar and clicked on "Add-ons" and I found to my horror that everything was gone off of that tab, Couatl, GSX, Addon Manager, Ultimate Traffic 2, etc. The only thing that remain…

  10. I was pessimistic to fly with a payware aircraft, because I was afraid that my fsx will crash, get 0.1 fps and so on. But, after I gave it a try, well, now I gotta say, it is all urban legend saying that integrated graphics are no good for fsx. That is why, I am posting this thread to let everyone know,especially for those who want to fly but don't think their pc can handle it. My laptop's specs (its Sony VAIO from 2011) -Intel Core i3 2330M @ 2.20 GHZ -6GB DDR3 Ram (533mhz) -Intel HD Graphics 3000 -640GB HDD ----------- Things to do: Install ORBX Global base, + FreeMeshX (do not install the FTX Vector, it will decrease the fps significantly).

    I've had this plane a few days and love it so far (After downgrading to Windows 7). However, I find performing a smooth landing nearly impossible. I trim correctly (I think), and use the calculations on the table to get the correct approach speeds, however the plane becomes incredibly unstable and starts violently pulling to the left and the vertical flight path starts to become really difficult to control once I'm at the last 1,000ft or so. I then find it really difficult to maintain the correct speed as it either starts to climb or on a few occasions I end up slamming into the runway being unable to flare or simply being too high and going around and trying again. I…

    I have a brand new FSX-SE installation. I uninstalled P3D. FSX is NOT installed, only FSX-SE. Everything has been working fine until I installed Tongass Fjords. 1. The trees in the ocean at Sitka remain after installing the 40 files in the texture.cfg file in D:/Steam/Steamapps/common/FTX/texture.cfg. I triple checked the numbering sequence and it is correct. 2. The Tongass Fjords configuration screen comes up blank. 3. I tried to uninstall it in the Control Panel so I could reinstall it but the uninstall file is unresponsive. 4. The Tongas Fjords entries in the Scenery Library are just below the Orbx files and above Addon Scenery. Both files a…

    I just downloaded the TU-134 program and have watched several YouTube videos on how to start the aircraft. I have run into two problems that I can't solve, so hopefully, someone here can help me. First, I am not getting ground power. The meter shows zero volts. Do you have to manually hook up to ground power? The second problem is with the APU. I never get the green light that says it is ready to start. The tutorials and such are good if your goal is to only show when things go right. But what if they are not all right? I can use my issue as an example. The videos say the ground power volts should read 27v, which it always does in the videos. But they never sa…

    Some of you may already be aware of this, but I wasn't. I am a big fan of Ray Smith's excellent freeware scenery (thanks Ray), however I recently noticed that some of his airports weren't being recognized by GSX even though both FSX and Little Navmap found them. I did a bit of looking on FSDT's forum and discovered that the likely cause was due to the size of the .bgl file. In the past Ray supplied a separate OBJ file, which resulted in a small bgl (exp; KIND 73 KB). However, the newer files now have the objects embedded in the bgl , which results in a much larger file (exp; KMKE 4,427 KB). GSX has a default maximum size it will recognize, which mea…

    Hi, I'm running Windows 10 on a month old PC. Everything was running fine for me in FSX-SE until this last update of a day ago, the "Fall Creators Update". Now I'm getting the "Cannot Create Child Window" error message. Looking around the 'net I can't find a solution other than Microsoft is supposed to be working on a fix to be released sometime this month (that info is from one of the Steam forums). Way to go Microsoft - you've buggered things once again. Scott

    I tried to fly from Manila (RPLL) to Iloilo (RPVI). All instrumentation seemed correct but as I tried to go visual on final approach no airport was seen. I found an airport visually about 5 mile south west of where it should be. I am using Orbx Global, no other scenery addons. Is this fault likely to be FSX or Orbx or what? TIA Len Carne

  20. Hi I am hoping to see if I could have some help regarding WOAI traffic FSX, I have posted on their forum but the site is not as active anymore, so I will paste it below. I am using FSX SP2 and the Emirates package I downloaded from the WOAI through AVSIM today, all other AI package are working just fine, the only issue is with Emirates. I wanted to modify the flight Plan so that no Emirates flights fly into EGCC and EGKK because I operate into those Airports using PMDG 777 and it wouldn’t be realistic to have two of the same their. I replaced after using TTools to decompile Emirates package via notepad both EGCC and EGKK with EGPF and EGNT so that all…

    My father in Law is an Avid Simmer, me, not so much. He came to me with a problem, OpusFSI steals focus from FSX when auto starts and shrinks FSX to the task bar, thus interupting his session. He always runs FSX in the full screen mode. He also starts OpusFSI from within FSUIPC (Paid version 4. something). I search all the forums and found no solution there. His line in FSUIPC was [Programs] Run1=READY,CLOSE,"D:\OpusFSI\FSISERVER.EXE FSX" So what I did just as an experiment was to create a new shortcut in the OpusFSI folder named FSISERVER.EXE - Shortcut and set the properties of the shortcut to run Minimized. Then I changed the FSUIPC com…
