So recently I have bought a laptop with a middle-class GPU and CPU, a GTX 860M 4 GB with i7-4710HQ at 3.5 GHz turbo. It seems that for other people, around a GTX 560 to 660 was enough to power some very intensive addons. Now maybe my CPU is my bottleneck, but I don't know if it should bottleneck to the point where I have to run on lowest settings just for 30.60 fps. Most of the time, I check for any CPU power consuming apps and close them before starting FSX, but now the performance is just outrageous. I start a flight with a freeware 777 (which was actually made for FS9) with all settings at max. I get extremely low fps, maybe 3, so I turn down every setting to the lowe…

I have the original Lancair Legacy and never upgraded to V2. As the title says I would like to know what features was implemented in upgrade to V2 ?

Steve just released the dx10 fixer--cloud shadow addon. it looks really good, no performance impact for me. as altitude passes at around the 1000ft agl mark, the shadows slowly fade in/out so it's done quite well. with the dx10 fixer vc shadows going, fsx looks like a million bucks. as noted in Steve's product description, there are visual anomalies when using in mountainous terrain. i can see a shadow front moving with the aircraft as shown in red below. not a buzz kill but perhaps there's a tweak in the app setup or Steve can eventually blend the shadow better in such scenarios. all in all, an amazing addon to an alread…

Hi all, Today I have installed some scenery and now I ma getting this weird error. 1.00000000000000000000000 is greater than 1000000000000.0000000000000000000000000000. I only have the option of pressing ok, then FSX start. Any idea or help. I tried to uninstall the scenery but no luck. Thanks

The Maddog MD80 is one of the best FS models ever made for both FS9 and FSX. Although the instruments and system depth are still amazing, the visual model developed back around 2007 shows its age so decided to give this classic model a modest facelift. I'll upload the texture files to sim-outhouse soon. Some side-by-side of the VC: >cleaned up texture around the pedals >added more texture details like those found on recent models >baked in ambient occulusion/shadows Original New texture set Original New Orig New Orig New New

Can you guys give me a list of airliner addons whose fmc support saving flights and continuing afterwards in the event of an FSX crash for example. I bought the QW 757 and my FSX crashed during the apporach into O Hare (thanks to MyTraffic 6) and when I resumed from the FSUIPC autosave, the FMS data was gone. I know the Aerosoft Airbus supports it but the plane is too resource heavy.

Hello people, Yesterday I encountered quite a strange texture glitch in MS FSX: It is basically a blending of other earth textures, and all kinds of texture tiles blending over each other, so you for example see a piece of Scandinavia on the earth below you, while you're flying at CRZ altitude, and a piece of South America a few miles further away. (really annoying, the earth below you is basically glitched completely) It doesn't matter which aircraft I'm flying in, it keeps occuring. I will also add a few screenshots so you have an idea of what glitch occurs. Also, I'll add my specs and addons installed below. I hope anyone knows what might be wrong. …

Hello people, I have had this issue for quite a while now. My problem is basically this: At a random point in the flight, my throttles (in the sim) slam into TO/GA mode, and no matter what I do, they will not come out of there. These planes, mainly the A340 series of black box simulations, are 100% not flyable with this bug. I dó have my throttle calibrated according to the manual provided by BBS, with a nullzone set to 40 (BBS said on their Facebook page that it has to be between 30 and 50). I have had this problem for quite a while now, and BBS support still hasn't come with a solution, so I hope I can get some help from fellow simmers. At the bottom of th…

Hello there, I am having an Alienware M17 R2 with an external GPU(alienware graphics amplifier) running the Geforce GTX 980 windforce by Gigabyte. Before reformatting the PC, I had ### AI 2.0 scaled upto 20% and it had no impact on FPS everything worked fine.. I also had FTX global, FlyTampa DXB. I have set my frame limiter to 30 FPS. After reformatting, I was testing at LFPG(Default Scenery) airport:- Initially, I thought that ### AI and FTX Global was the cause of FPS killing, so I removed ### AI at first and my fps was 18-25. I never got 30 FPS. Then I removed GTX Global, still the same.. Then I removed both and still the same. I was checking about the …

Started getting back into the Q400 after a hiatus (the current patch seems to have made this bird less twitchy and better to fly) and had forgotten how scared the pilots get during turbulent conditions. If that represented real world actions, I would be really worried as a pax!

Hi everyone, I want to ask if it is possible to use multiple controllers for FSX:SE? For example, use CH rudder for rudder control, Saitek Yoke+Throttle for ailerons and throttle. Joystick for tiller or replace Yoke for Airbus uses. IIRC it is possible with FSUIPC paid version which I already have but just want to confirm before spending hundreds buck into the controllers. I've been away from simulator for quite a time, now starting everything from scratch including softwares and hardwares. Thank you so much for your help, Hoang Le.

Hey guys, I've seen at least two other posts about this issue but none was able to help me. Everytime, at night, when I go through a fog layer (through clouds) or land in low visibility, the sky turns white. Somehow the fog color changed into white. This can be interesting while flying "hey, the landing lights are reflecting on the clouds!" but on the ground it is totally disruptive. According to previous posts it probably is shader related but I am not sure how to check that and how to restore to the original condition... I was using Mogwaisoft Shade (from simmarket) (as it changes the color palettes!) and crosire reshade. I have uninstalled Shade and tr…

Hello! My wheel on the ground is not working since I cannot turn at all. Weard thing is that my rudder is workin. Aircraft effected are those that were bought, namely Lear 36a and freeware C47 (the awesome one ofc!). No issues with default aircraft. This issue affects FSX as well.

Come on Powerball! I need one of these. . . https://youtu.be/dtXZHj-7mus

Question from a non- techie? After installing Windows 10 FSX is crashing on a regular basis. On this forum it was suggested to move the cfg file to temp folder, restart fsx and allow it to rebuild the cfg file. My question - will this move effect my airplane, scenery and weather addons? If this procedure will not work I guess it's on to fsx steam edition for me. Thanks in advance for any replies.

I've tried several times to get FS Recorder to work with my FSX SE but to no avail. Is there a recorder on the market payware or freeware that is compatible with FSX SE ?

Sean and Rob, Thank you both for your dedication to our hobby and for your professionalism. The very best to you both and prayers for your future. Jesse http://realairsimulations.com/home.php?page=home

Mouselook suddenly behaving extremely weird. For a quite some time the mouselook function (Spacebar+mouse) to move around the outside of the aircraft has worked flawlessly. I am running Windows 10/ FSX Acc. / FSUIPC paid V. / EZCA. Using EZCA only for VC, regular FSX view for outside view (enter with S). Since a couple of days when in regular FSX outside view I cannot press and hold the spacebar anymore while looking/moving around with the mouse. I have to press the spacebar once shortly and release, now the cursor changes to a crosshair and then moving around with the mouse works. However when hitting the spacebar again 80% of the times the crosshair does not change b…

The next time you run PROATC/X it should auto update, if you have the option to update selected, this is to notify those that do not. Not sure what has changed yet, Here are the release notes, looks mainly like a bug fix. The latest update Loading saved flight situations - The issue on loading saved flight situations some users had is fixed. It was caused by situations saved with a very old version Generated FMC Flight Plans - The Airbus X Extended now loads flight plans as it should. It is the only aircraft, which needs 10 characters for the flight plan name. Therefore please enter ICAO departure + ICAO destination + 01 under CoRoute. E.g. KLAX to KSFO will …

Anyone using their desktop charts? Pro's and Cons? I already have the subscription for the FMS data. Thanks

What's the best dash 8 100/200 for FSX in terms of system depth? Thanks

Since balloon wind data (direction and speed) is gathered by radar, it is ground speed/direction being measured - yes? So the higher the altitude, the lower atmospheric density means less effect on your aircraft? Thanks, N99WB
