  1. Hello Folks; So, I am trying to determine what is the best all round ATC for FSX since I am now finally ready to replace the standard FSX ATC which I have been using since it was introduced. I have done a lot of home work and I am down to 2; Pro ATC/X and PF3. I really don't want to start a thread on this since I know it was discussed at length around mid 2017 and however, since it has been awhile ago I am sure some of the concerns listed then are no longer issues. The current default ATC is not too bad given it's age. I current use FlightSim Commander to plan my flights which I then load into FSX and my Aircraft FMC. For the most part it does the job the issue …

    Hello. I am looking for opinions on the best Cessna Citation for FSX. I see NextGen has one and Carenado has another. Just Flight also has something listed called Citation X. I guess I am looking for overall quality, model, flight dynamics, features, etc. Also if one has more of an impact on FPS than other. If anyone can let me know their opinions I would appreciate it. Thank you!

    Spoiler I am using FSX SE, an Alabeo Aztec and recently bought the Carenado Caravan EX. The Aztec is set up with various camera views which I find very useful - they are accessed through buttons on my yoke and hotkeys in FSUIPC. I am limited because there can only be a fixed number of hotkeys (9 or 10?). I would like to use one of the existing views from the Aztec when I fly the Caravan but it isn't working. I have pasted the Camera Definition from the Aztec aircraft.cfg file to the Caravan file, renumbered it to avoid obvious conflicts but it doesn't work. I have tried (at John Dowson's suggestion) changing the GUID, but it still doesn't …

    Good day everyone, in my first flights in pmdg boeings, i was setting a lower altitude before reaching the top of descend, and when i Hit the tod, the aircraft was starting to descend automatically on vnav, but now even though i already passed the Tod, the aircraft doesn't start descending, i have to left click to make the aircraft start descend, perhaps did i changed some settings accidentally?

    Hello everyone, i would like to make a Cargo flight with pmdg 747 qots II, my airplane will be a -400bcf. But since i will be very heavy, i have to perform a step climb but i don't know how to do it without ruin the altitude values that given by fmc? You know on the legs Page, at the right Hand side there are altitude values, once i changed one of them from 6.000 to 8.000 feet, at 8.000 feet the Autopilot switched itself to the altitude hold mode and i couldn't reengage the vnav anymore. By the way is there any differences between fmcs of -400F and -400BCF?

  11. Dear all, first of all let me wish you a Merry Christmas, even when in lockdown or otherwise limited. Hopefully, you are all still healthy. Also hopefully, next year will see a return to normalcy, and no, not the ‘new normal’, the regular one. Here’s hoping. Talking about next year….. the reason I am writing to you is that I have decided to stop my commercial activities under FSAddon Publishing. It is getting too expensive, and too much work. Too much for the time I still have to spend on it, and too much for my age, I guess. Even though we are spending most of the time at home here in Italy, forced by the circumstances, I seem to be running out of time most e…

    Modifications to the freeware BAC 1-11 series aircraft by Dave Maltby with the exception of the 1-11-510ED because it uses a different avionics fit. These modifications improve FSX compatibility, iron out some bugs and enhance some features. The aircraft and panel package(s) for the 1-11 have to be installed in order to use this! FeaturesAdded switch, button, knob, etc... sounds Changed entire APU system to use FSX' default APU Changed engine fire extingusher logic Modifed engine start logic Recoded bleed air pressure system Added keyboard controls for spoilers Changed "Mixture lever increase" clickspot behaviour Modified airspeed indicator bugs Added autothrottle s…

    Four out of five of my flights, the airplanes has trouble capturing the localizer. How far out or close in should I activate the approach button? I am activating the approach button about 25 miles out. But I end up being about a mile or two off on approach. What am I doing wrong? It is very frustrating. Thanks

    Hello, I come with a localizer problem FSX, Windows10. Both aircraft are Project Airbus types. The test track is: Takeoff ZRH RW10, NAV1 is set to KPT (Kempten) 109.6. Start manually, then at approx. 2000ft APilot on; HDG 70 ° >> change to 70 degrees. I put LOC course 74 °. Now I activate LOC (NAV1 = 109.60, approx. 60nm distance; is displayed). So the plane should swing in on it . It works with several aircraft, eg. A318-111 (N801). But if I'm using A321-211 (GJVB), the plane rotate to course to (74+180)= 254 and is now flying in the reverse direction, south instead north. As a workaround, I set the loc course to…

    I don't even know where to BEGIN! I searched here before posting and can't seem to pull up any other discussion about this, but I doubt that's the case. Tried to follow tips and "checklist" from another forum but the files the poster referred to are absent. I followed the manual. I can't seem to find a .cfg file within the MyTraffic folder. I can't seem to make FSX SE include MyTraffic as scenery.

  18. Hello everyone, it's Murat Deniz Şenol, i am still not familiar with forum so i apologize again if i put the topic in wrong forum. Well, i was flying with Boeing aircrafts until today especially with the 747-400, and today i got the Aerosoft A320/21. In Boeings at cruising altitude when i get close to the top of descend i was setting a lower altitude and when i hit the top of descend, the VNAV function was starting to descend automatically. Is it possible to climb, cruise and descend automatically like boeing's vnav on Airbus? What's the routine climb and descend procedures for the A320/21? Also i couldn't manage to push the thrust levers forward by usin…

  19. I am blue in the face trying to correct this and I am not a geek so treat me like a 4 year old please. I have tried uninstalling Aer Lingus fleet manually from FSX and reinstalling them with WOAI to be told that there is already an airline of the same name. I have removed the BGL from the world scenery in FSX, same result. I bought Aerosoft Nice Cote D'Azur airport, beautiful, but trees all over the runway apron. I wonder should I start collecting model trains instead, my hair is going grey from this. Any help gratefully received and apologies to anyone who gets cranky because this is the 100th time this question has been asked. Thank you Greg

    Hello everyone. I need some advice of FSX scenery settings to increase my frame rates and get rid of the jumpiness in scenery dense areas. I recently purchased the global scenery update from Orbx . ( which has been around for years, but yes I just now purchased and installed). Before this update I had no issues and now that I am flying near scenery dense areas It does not perform well. Should I just go to the FSX scenery settings and tone it down a bit? Or is their a better way? I assure I do not have a hardware issue because I am running with an I7 processor and a nvdia 1050 graphics card with FSX installed onto a SSD. I am just fishing for ideas on the best…

  21. Hello, I had enrolled into the FSX community just a few weeks ago. I don't know much apart from the basics and the only 2 things I know about engine failures are that you can set failures to happen within a certain amount of time and you can press a key to make an engine failure happen. That's great and all but one problem: I wanna film a video about BOAC flight 712 and I have to do an engine fire - I want to press a key and for an engine fire to happen, which, as far as I know, isn't possible. Are there any plugins for FSX or even a function in the main game for this to happen? Thanks. Also, if this is important, I use FSX:SE.

  22. I am wondering if there is a freeware alternative to chaseplane or ezdok. Can't really find much about it so I thought a freeware alternative does not exist for chaseplane/ezdok.

    I use FSX boxed and I'm having an issue I used to also have with P3D, but I just fixed it by clearing my shader cache. In this case, my FSX shaders have not been modified (i checked the modify date, all of them are which from 2006 ~2007) and I've tried clearing my shader cache to no effect. Rex Sky Force 3D + 3d cloud models, Default Thunderstorm weather preset I use ENVTEX sky textures as well as REX Sky Force 3D (32 bit version) for the cloud textures. I noticed even with ENVTEX textures, the clouds still have different colors. ENVTEX Clouds Default cloud models, Default Thunderstorm preset Is there any way to fix this?

    Good Evenning I will firstly start by saying that is my own personal experience I am sure every customer has their own experience either good or not so good, it is important you do your own research. I will outline my experience below; I believe customers should have the bigger picture and learn from other experiences. I wanted a fictional livery created for FSX FSlabs A320, accordingly I looked at the RDPresets (RDP for ease) and emailed them in May 2021. The email was dated the 14th of May, I made it very clear that I was looking for an FSX livery, the response I was given made it very clear that it can be accommodated.…
