    SInce I reinstalled FSX and P3D I'm not able to pan or scroll smoothly in the virtual cockpit..I have great FPS but when panning with the mouse/hat switch or scrolling with the middle mouse button or keyboard, it is jerky. I didn't have this issue before I reinstalled so I am guessing it is something in my configuration. Looking for help. Thanks.

  6. Hi. I have just tried to allocate keyboard commands to different camera views, and not Joystick. When I edit the cameras the keyboard command is accepted and highlighted in the key sequence box. So far, so good. However, when I run FSX the keyboard commands are not doing any changes. Any ideas? All aircraft types selected and VC selected Enable live camera and ELC control both checked.

    Hi All, I'm wondering if anybody has any suggestions for good add-ons for FSX, which aren't primarily visual in nature. A lot of popular ones seem to be either new aircraft or scenery, neither of which are particularly useful to me as a blind pilot. I maybe interested in new aircraft at some later point, but for now wonder what else is out their. I have MyTraffic, which seems to do a great job of making the skies feel a bit more alive, and Radar Contact for ATC. I've heard about FS Passengers, but don't know how well it will work with Its Your Plane or my screen reader. Please feel free to chime in with interesting ideas

  12. I am running FSX-SE using three monitors and the Cockpit Tooltips does not show any data (just the + and - sign).I am using Direct-X9 and the Cockpit ToolTips box is checked. If I uncheck the box, quit the game, restart the game and check the box back on it works ONCE and then reverts back to not showing any data. It will also work if I press ALT-Enter and use just one screen. This is very strange, since it worked perfectly until I reinstalled everything on my computer. I have contacted the sellers of FSX-SE, but they have no suggestions for me. Any Ideas? Thanks in advance.

    Hi All, I ran into something odd today when I tried flying a jet aircraft for the first time in a while, and opted to let Its Your Plane handle fuel loading for me. It can apparently summon a truck just fine, but I noticed when I tried to subsequently close the doors for departure that they refused to budge. SOme digging has suggested this is a bug with the FSX fuel trigger at larger airports. Their are some reasonable workarounds, such as just using the fuel and payload dialog, but it's still a little annoying. Does anyone have insight into this? THanks

    Hi, I am trying to learn how to use default GPS to guide me into ILS glide scope. What I am doing: 1. Select airport from the nearest, ENTER, Activate 2. Press "PROC" button, select ILS runway, VECTORS and ACTIVATE. Now I have some nice flight plan loaded into GPS with ILS approach. But what I can't understand is that it seems that it doesn't guide me to ILS glide path, but FROM it. It usually flies my airplane directly to the airport, than in reverse direction through glide path, then makes loop back to the airport. Everything would be fine if this would come in reverse order. Now, what am I doing wrong? And the second question - is there any way t…

    I made a plg in Plan G with two intersection waypoints. I exported it as a pln. I loaded it and flew the plan It does not show in the FSX Flight planner map as correct (no intersection waypoints). When I loaded it into the NewGPS it showed as a red route except for the two intersection waypoints where the route showed white. It flew the right route. I have no idea why the Flight Planner doesn't show it right. I also don't know why the intersection routes show white. Can we enter intersection waypoints using the default FSX Flight Planner? Can someone please answer my question? Thanks, Bob.

    Hello, Before you get all crazy about the following, I would like to inform that I am only here to get inputs on what I ask, and not something regarding pc's, either stationary or portable ones. I am looking to get a new Macbook Pro, which means I'll combine both Mac OS and Windows OS, on the MCP. Thus, this means I am able to run FSX and that leads to the main question. I've been comparing the 2015 and 2016 MCP versions, and I am in any case looking for a maxed out CPU, but staying with 8 GB RAM and the standard GPU. So, Do you guys think there will be any remarkable change in running FSX on a Macbook pro with 3,4 ghz (2015 model) compared with 3.6 …

  20. I am using a Plantronics 655 USB with FSX. The volume is low with all sliders set to max. The headset is correctly identified. The GUID number in the FSX.cfg is {4AE63266-DF03-4911-91C7-237077ED2AB0}. I am using WIN7 64 bit and all me audio sliders and mixer volumes are set at max. The volume control on the headset is on max. The volume with Skype and all music and video files is OK. I talked to Plantronics Support and they had no idea why it would be low only in one program. Has anyone else experienced this? Bob. I found out on another FSX forum that there is a mixer slider on the Taskbar specific to FSX. It was set low. When I set i to max all is…

  23. Hi everyone, I'm sure the various offline traffic products on offer for FSX have been discussed ad nauseam On the forums, Both freeware and payware. My situation is quite specific- I use a program called voice attack to bind simulator commands to voice commands because I have limited use of my hands. Therefore, once the aircraft is off the ground it is 100% voice control. Given the above I am looking for a traffic product for FSX that minimises the setup I have to do. World of AI is out because of the protracted set up. What I am really looking for is something that I can install once and that will keep me with up-to-date models, repaints and flight plans going …

  25. Dear fellow simmers, I noticed something wrong from the beginning, when the first helicopter occured at the FS98. It still is wrong at the FS9 und FSX, thus I do place this toppic under two titles in this FSX- and the AVSIM-FS2004-Forum to hope that there will be some-one out there with a smart answer. The wrong detail discovered ist this: By hovering a helicopter above water the main-rotor's arodynamical downforce creates wakes and spray on/at the water's surface. In reality it is like this: - if you would slowly decent your hoovering hight from, let's presume 1.000 ft above the water's surface down to let's say 1 ft above the water's surfac…
