  1. Hi Jim, I just downloaded scenery config editor because I have a lot of scenery issues, elevation problems, buildings in the wrong area etc. I have FTX Northern California, New Zealand, and Europe along with numerous add on airports. When I switched regions for the first time, that's when I started to have these issues. The scenery config editor shows approximately 80% of my scenery has errors! and the errors are "path can not be found". Can this be fixed or will I have to completely uninstall FSX and start over? Thank you for any info regards Doug

  2. Several days ago, FlyTampa announced Amsterdam, presumably for FSX and P3D. According to their forum, it is planned for a 2015 release. I'm personally very, very excited for this. Hopefully they'll be able to find a way to get around the performance issues that plague AMS (related to the number of taxiways). With this and the Aerosoft V2 on the way, along with the NL2000 freeware version, we will really be spoiled for choice when it comes to EHAM. http://www.flytampa.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=7313

  3. I have installed carefully these two planes in FSX, with flightplans and textures checked for FSX with AI Flight Planner. I Find the behavior of the planes is very strange: --both of them appear only with a few generic and empty textures; all white, all grey, a few chromatic details... windows and mobile parts show correctly, the plane flies and is recognised, but it doesn't show the many liverys that are in the Richard Faith's packages --the F900 shows some green points and areas on the nose and the upper engine --and the most strange thing: I go to the "Tools" menu, open the AI "Explorer" utility, use the "create" option, I choose one of the RFAI variants o…

  5. Hello-. So I want to start recording some of my flights, but I fly in windowed mode. Is there a way to record FSX in windowed mode without showing the icon bar or the border? With ShadowPlay, I can record FSX, but it includes the icon bar and the border (top of frame).

    Hi Captains, I did post this topic some minutes back but it did not show up hence once again. This may have already been discussed before but I do not seem to find it. I have done my research on the net and what I see are a mixed results as to the performance and stability of FSx steam against the boxed version. I tend to run it on my laptop like the boxed version even though I have a desktop which I seldom use now. Do not intend to use ORBX or PMDG stuff except Carenado / Alabeo and REX Direct, I would appreciate all reviews from users who are using the steam version so that I can decide if I should purchase it. all help appreciated …

    I`ve been told by a few friends that CFG tweaking is key for a better performance in FSX. After doing some research, I`ve read about different tweaks that can be applied. The only thing that I am sure that I will try is the highmefix which seems to be essential. Here are my specs: 2gb RAM Intel Pentium E5500 2.8ghz ATI Radeon HD4350 Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit What other tweaks should I make? Thanks in advance

  11. I hear that you must have registered FSUIPC to be able to use the FADEC on the Citation 2.0. But, I've seen many people say that they have been able to not use FSUIPC and still manage to get the FADEC to work. I use the Saitek Pro-Flight Throttle Quadrant, has anyone had any luck getting this to work w/out FSUIPC? -I am asking here because I'm not able to be in the Eaglesoft forums yet. I would like to add one more question, what is the performance like, in comparison to Airbus X Extended and/or PMDG's 737 NGX?

Up until recently I was Doing this method of flying in My Avro and really enjoyed it. The avro allows you to upload FSX default flight plans so it made things very easy. I then decided to move onto something more modern and after purchasing a nice Airbus add on pack, I spent 4 or 5 days just messing about with it to learn to fly before starting serious flying. First problem I ran into was the fact you could not upload a defaut FSX flight plan in …

    After flying an assortment of aircraft in FSX I decided to try some military aircraft , I am so glad I did. After a little of research I discovered a company called VRS. They are the PMDG of the military. The F/A18E Super Hornet is as real as it gets. They also have the Tack Pack which enables you to bomb ground targets and all aircraft flying around in FSX , complete with smoke and flames. Up to this point I never thought it was even possible in FSX. The Hornet is a real challenge, almost everything works. This just adds another level of flying to FSX. I thought I would post this for those who are looking for a real as it gets experience.

  16. Hello all, On my past two visits to St Maarten, I noticed that most of the ramps are packed with business jets. When I got back home, I was inspired to fly to SXM in FSX. When I did, I was disappointed because there were not nearly as many business jets parked. I found a picture online (posted by Daniel Fall) which shows almost exactly what it looks like in real life in FSX. Here is the picture = http://s4.photobucke...ts/SXM.jpg.html I have Challenger, Gulfstream, and Global Express AI packages and it would be awesome to see them like the picture above. With that said, does anyone know of a afcad that would make it look like this? Or can someone try to replicate…

    Hey all, I recently picked up this scenery, and it seems its got a serious issue with the elevation of the runway and taxi-ways. The new runway seems to hover about 3 feet over the default on, and When I land, I pass right through it. Does anybody have this problem, and know how to fix it? There is nothing about a update or patch on the LVFR website, and nothing on their forums.

  23. I posted this at ASN and it stumped Damian (he asked that I open a ticket), so I thought someone here might have an idea of what could have gone wrong: I installed ASN SP2 with my FSX:MS install and now ATC menu commands are ignored completely, e.g. when I select to request taxi to runway nothing at all happens, though I can switch to different ATC menus without problem. I uninstalled ASN and reinstalled with SP1B and the ATC commands came back. I then reinstalled SP2 with the same results as the first time. Any suggestions? Thanks for reading.

I'm aware of FSGenesis mesh but I did have some issues in FS9 with it not working well with UTX. I want a product that can be installed in both FSX, FSX-SE and P3DV2.

    OK - I have tried all the solutions proposed in these forums, but am still having the "reactivation" problem. I believe I have had it for several years since I tried to install Acceleration, but ignored it then as I did not think I really needed Acceleration. Now, after messing around with my FSX program, it has reoccurred and will keep telling me my "trial period" is over, and shutting down. Is there any final, good way to solve this problem ??? I have not tried contacting Microsoft, as I understand they do not support FSX any more. I could uninstall and reinstall the program, but would like to find some simpler way to fix this. Thanks for any help.
