I have been looking at a, well lets say, relativity new google earth update and to be honest it is better than FTX global being that is more updated and would look good on IFR, a step up from photo-real. That's all if there is any way of doing this please help.

Dear All, my request might sound a bit weird, but please take some time to skim through it. Basically, I am looking for a complex aircraft to fly. I have flown the following types extensively. I put my remarks next to each one, feel free to comment on them RealAir Duke - superb aircraft, graphics are perfect FPS is great. I dont like the disappearing mouse and the fact the there is only one, non-dimmable cockpit light, ie. dials cannot be lit separately. No system failures, so it is not so good in this respect. RealAir Duke Turbine - same as above, and it has system failures, good FPS, Razbam Metroliner - it would be a cool thing to ride but there are some se…

I am seeing this in several cities: Kansas City (Kaufmann and Arrowhead stadiums); New York City (Shea Stadium); St Louis, Denver (Invesco/Mile High Stadium); and Los Angeles (Dodger Stadium). In all cases I am using default scenery under Megascenery 2.0 state scenery, and that under MSE UltraRes cities. In each case one stadium is FSX default and the other is from MSE. Oh! And in regard to Kansas CIty I lived there when Arrowhead (football) and Kaufmann (baseball) were built side-by-side. What I am seeing there is clearly offset double images each each of those two stadiums. I see no difference if I unload MSE2 state, or MSE UltraRes city, one at a time but not bo…

Hello. I am trying to figure out how to correctly save and retrieve a flight plan and panel state in mid fight and retrieve it later and continue on my flight path as normal. • Flying from KJFK to KALX. Flt Plan generated by FS Commander and import to iFLY 747 v2 and MS FSX for coordination with FSX ATC. • Save the flight in FSX, iFly planner and panel state ½ into the flight at cruising alt with all 3 names being the same. Then exit FSX. • Fire up FSX, go to KJFK select iFly 747 v2 aircraft and ensure everything is in normal state. • Load the saved fsx saved flight plan, load the iFly flight plan, and load the panel state. All by the book. • Resul…

flight dynamics are a must to you, which is my case, and has made me fall into some kind of addiction playing DCS World because of the ver good flight dynamics we have there for the ww2 birds, then... Then, just like I did, I seriously recommend using A2A's p51d Military version.... Well, I'm that guy that, from time to time, uninstalls FSX ( now FSX:SE ) weeps out every backup of his aircraft add-ons, and then, after a couple of months, sometimes more, asks Lewis or Scott to re-enable my downloads at my account... After more than 3 months addictively playing DCS World, flying mostly the Bf109 K-4 because I don't really like the feel of the P51d in DCS World, …

I assign the keyboard shortcuts for certain switches and then asign the certain key combination to a joystick button, which allows me to control most of the switches with my joystick or throttle buttons. However I'm having a problem with the Dash 8. I managed to create some mouse macros for certain switches but does only work "in one way". For example: I can turn on the fuel pumps with mouse macro I created but I can't turn them off by pressing the same key (pressing the same key does nothing). Has anybody had any luck with assigning the buttons and switches? Surely it can be done somehow.

Hi there, I have a really serious problem with my flightsim. When I select to load my plane at a certain airport, it unfortunately, does not do that. This happens at a number of my airport with sceneries. For example: I select my plane to load at flytampa tampa. Yet, when it has finished loading, it loads the plane 5 miles from the runway, in a field or in tampa bay. FSX can't understand it, and tries to reload the plane, but it just ends up with a continuous loop of loading in a field or water. Also, when I fly within a 100 mile radius of the airport, fsx refreshs into a new load but on the ground, no matter what my altitude or speed is. However this doesn't happen at …

Hey guys I just bought the Flight1 Super King Air B200 addon for FSX and when I configured some views with EZDOK 1.17 as I normally would, and for some reason, with only this aircraft I cannot switch between views I have set up. I have the switch buttons binded to my joystick. Just wondering if anyone could help me out here as it's very aggravating and I might request a refund if I can't get this working, because it's really not worth the hassle. EZDOK's been a pain in the past and looks like I have a long battle ahead of me :/ Cheers guys

If someone has FSX, an early version, updated with free patches SP1 and SP2, then what are they missing by not having acceleration installed? ----------- Reason I ask: I can install FSX Gold and everything runs fine. As soon as I run the install disc for acceleration (which comes inside the FSX Gold package) then FSX will only run 30 minutes and complain about activation. There are MS help pages on activation. I followed all the instructions, didn't help. --- My solution is I just run FSX-SE which does not have this problem on my laptop. Meanwhile on my desktop I use FSX Gold with Acceleration installed from the same set of FSX Gold box that I used o…

Before my flights I'll uncheck the scenery where I won't be flying . I have a ton of ORBX and scenery from a lot of other payware sites. Sometimes when I go back I'll see what was once mostly unchecked is now all checked. I believe this occurs after the computer is re-booted. Is there a way to prevent that from happening ? Thanks

Hello everyone! First post here so I think I should first take the time to say a couple of things about me and my background to avoid a pointless conversation. :smile: First of all, although I'm not a newcomer at flight simulation I did get back into it only 1.5 month ago after an absence of about 8 years. Long story short I've been meaning to start "flying" again for 3 years but I was stuck with only a netbook computer. A couple of months ago I bought a new laptop with the following specs: Intel Core i5-4210u 4Gb RAM (which I intend to take up to 8 or 16Gb in the near future) AMD Radeon R7 M260 Graphics with 2Gb dedicated memory 256Gb SSD Going for a laptop was the on…

Hello all, Just a quick question, how does the 747 performs with time compression? Say x8. I don't have time to do flights real time. So an addon working nicely with time compression is always a must to me. Thanks

I'm not sure what the problem is. Maybe it's an nVidia settings issue? I have FSX Box + Acceleration Pack running on Windows 10 x64 on a nVidia GTX 980 4gb. For some reason the Main Free Flight window does not Anti-Alias the aircraft image. It's not a huge deal, but I was wondering if someone knew what may cause this problem? Here you can see the jaggies along the wings and fuselage. But here, in the game you can see it's just fine:

Good day everyone, Well after a hiatus of about 4 years I'm coming back, got a "first" flight in yesterday after being away from the hobby for a while, I was a fs9 user, I've done some research and asked questions and for now I'm gonna go with fsx for the time being as it seems to be running quite well on my new to me computer that I recently purchased. So I have fsx installed along with reinstalling fs9, I'm thinking of using fs9 for my airliner flights as I purchased many aircraft years ago that I reinstalled, and will be using fsx for my commuter flights, fseconomy, VFR flying etc. Anyways to get to the point, I forgot how involved this hobby can get with a…

Hello I would appreciate some help if possible please with FSX Deluxe installed on a Brand New Windows 10 PC. (Chillblast i5 6400, 3.3 GHz, 8GB DDR4 RAM) I am getting the Message ‘Scenery CFG File Error’ (Scenery\Cities\Reno\Scenery) Area.115. Through to Area .119 This PC also has the Steam version installed. In fact the Steam version was installed first and has no problems. I get the impression FSX is looking in the wrong place for the scenery files. Let me explain. On another PC (windows 7) I noted there are 2 Scenery CFG files. C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX, and C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX-SE The FSX-SE file must be a left over, because that game was …
