    All has been working well on short flights but I am having problems on long (>8hours) inter-continental flights. Through elimination, I have found no problem with P3D on its own: my PMDG QOTS2 will fly until the fuel runs out. The problem comes when I add OPUS (only OPUS nothing else). The simulator stops after about 7/8 hours with "P3D.exe has stopped working........." The event viewer just says Faulting app. path is P3D.exe and faulting module the generic c:Windows\sys32\ntdll.dll (names shortened a bit for convenience). I deleted my old OPUS as per the instructions, leaving the folder and installed the v5 (5.10.7) to the recommended own fo…

  4. Hello I just bought the PMDG 777 and a few ORBX sceneries during the sale, and after installing them, my frame rate took a nosedive from the ~40 to 10-15 fps when using these scenery. After a bit of looking, i came upon Word Not Allowed's fsx tweaks. Using process explorer, I found when fsx is running, it only utilises one core at full capactiy and the others are at idle, So I applied the affinity mask tweak to get fsx using all cores. I have a 4 core i7-4720 with hyperthreading enabled, so I used AffinityMask=255. And now the frame rate wont go above 10 even with all the addon scenery disabled. Even with the ultralight and and any deafult airfield loaded, …

  5. I have been using the Flight1 GTN750 in FSX for some years now and I love it. I chose the 750 rather than the 650 simply because of its larger screen size and the fact that the 650 (as far as I know) doesn't include charts. Recently however I note that Flight1 have released an updated package called GTN Complete which includes both the 650 and 750, with a reasonable update price for previous owners and I have been considering getting it. Apart from the fact that the 650 because of its smaller size offers the chance to integrate into some VCs where the 750 simply wouldn't fit, I just wondered if there are any other benefits to having both? I have seen some screenshots of V…

  8. I am trying to adjust the call signs for my aircraft. I tried adjusting the atc sections in the configuration file, but ended up with atc pronouncing each letter...using the phonetic alphabet. I want the system to recognize my aircraft as American 444, Speedbird 189 etc. not Boeing 0001 or Airbus 0002. Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

  10. Practically since I found it I've been flying the POSKY 744 with an add-on 2d panel and default FSX VC. I finally got around to installing the upgraded VC by Alejandro - an excellent improvement until I can save up for a PMDG 744. However the night lighting appears to have a problem. Not sure if this is due to me running in DX10 (thanks, SteveFX) or not. The cockpit light (dome?) appears to work fine, but switching to panel creates this: If I turn it off - the instruments also go dark. Not without power, all the information is still displayed, it's just the same brightness as the rest of the cockpit. Any ideas please? Not sure if anyone flies the defau…

    Hi there, I do use PFPX but I never purchased the server subscription. I noticed that simbrief offers NOTAMS for free. How can it be, that an addon you paid for cannot offer that service for free? Never mind, I get my weather from ASN into PFPX, but I am missing NOTAMS and TAF's in my FP. Is there a way to use a freeware source to get that information integrated into the PFPX FP?

    I am a real world pilot S.E.L. of the Cessna fixed wing. I am building my simulator from the ground up. My system is entirely dedicated to the simulator only. No other games, software or programs (unless related to my sim). I am running Windows 10 64 bit. My computer has the Nvidia GTX970 with an Intel I7-6700 processor to make my simulator run smooth and fast. I am not by any means a computer programmer or builder, but from what I think I know, I can be quite dangerous. Having said that, here is the information I would like to consult the forum on as I continue to build my system. I am using Microsoft Windows Flight Simulator X with the Acceleration pack. I also wil…

  14. Hello! Recently I discovered FSCLOUDS and wondered why I dont tried it much earlier. It seemed to have a nice touch of flying online but without the strict rules like VATSIM and IVAO... I thought I can enjoy easy online flying. But why they have at least 3 different clients on the start page? Please have a look: http://81.169.250.232 Nothing is explained, which client do I need for what?? With the first one (FSCLOUD) I was able to go online... I think. But with this one I was unable to setup a flightplan. I downloaded the next one (smartCARS), it is a nearly like the first one, but also no flightplan... Here I tried to register at the forums for info... ne…

    For those flying boat fans who are missing the old FS2002/2004 Boeing B314 by Pilot's, there's a new version in development for FSX and P3D: https://www.pilots.shop/Cms/Ui/Pages/Products/MainPage.aspx?id=9c96eb9a-0097-4083-be89-64f534a61a6e&pageid=017fac64-ff48-4139-8dd1-8dae8b5ab1f9. The initial screenshots look very promising.

  16. I have downloaded the WOAI installer from AVSIM and have attempted to install a number of airline packages in FSX. However, on a test flight at Heathrow, not a single aircraft is visible on the ground, despite me having installed numerous airline packages. When I go to "Expert" in the WOAI installer, none of my packages appear. I've installed the airline packages to my C:\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\SimObjects\Airplanes folder. Is this the correct location? Am I missing a step to somehow activate these AI aircraft? If anyone can help, I would be most grateful!

  19. I may have cocked up my fsx. I did have GEX Europe installed. I did not uninstall this as I assumed & read somewhere that FTX Global would overwrite the textures. I therefore installed FTX Global. It all seems fine except black squares in scenery. I enclose 2 x screenshots to demonstrate my problem.... 1. Taken @ Innsbruck 2. Taken @ Jahalabad in Afghanistan Many black squares... Turning off DX10 preview does not help. Seems to be a missing a texture file? Any help would be very welcome!! Thanks. I have FTX Global selected with Orbx tress & Hybrid mode selected.

  20. A nice little tool I've found, testing it right now: RealEngine 1.4 http://www.fs2000.or...ft-limitations/ From the download page: "RealEngine v1.4 Aircraft Limitations. RealEngine v1.4 fails systems and engines of piston aircraft if operating limitations are exceeded. Limitations modeled: MP / RPM / power, CHT, oil temp, oil press, lean/rich roughness, spark plug fouling, gear/flaps overspeed. Added vs v1.1/v1.2: easier configuration, realistic CHT model, mini status panel. Can be fully configured for individual aircraft." I could get it to work with the RealAir Duke, except for the CHT which does not seem to work together very well. Anyone has e…

    Hi, I recently purchased the PMDG 777-200 and -300ER expansion package and I'm trying to create a checklist using the in-game kneeboard as I currently do not have a working printer and no second monitor to have one at hand, so I did so by starting with the QW757 Checklist as a reference and then edited the .html accordingly for the PMDG 777 procedures as presented here: http://p3dchecks.weebly.com/uploads/4/3/1/0/43100015/boeing_777_normal_procedures_checklist.pdf I did so, but it appears that when I go in-game my checklist is not present.

It's obviously got something to do with the jetways at airports but that's as far as I know. I've read documentation and googled it but I'm stumped. My question is what exactly does this do?
