    I run FSX/FSUIPC4 on a Win7 64-bit system. Home repairs required me to disconnect all devices - Saitek yoke, TQ, and rudder pedals. I tagged them so I could replug them into the same USB ports where they had been. I started FSX and flew the default Cessna with no problem. Then I tested the default 737 and as soon as I started a Free Flight, while parked on the ramp - before I touched any controls - the throttles opened by themselves. To gain control I used the Saitek TQ to open, then close the them. I thought it was just an anomaly. I taxied to active and when I pulled back the yoke... aauughhh - no elevator control - tore up a lot of fence! I restarted FSX and op…

  5. Hi. Just having this strange issue with levelD 767 on FSX. When approaching this mad airport VQPR, i was trying to get it as a waypoint in my route, but i was geting this message "not found". (guess my database for the FMC is REALLY outdated) But anyhow, i just entered the frequency manualy on NAV1 and switched to VOR on the HSI, but no signal! NAV1 is working. i can tune other VOR stations and get signal and Distance from DME. Only this PRO 108.40 is not working on LEVELD. After landing, i then load another generic FSX plane, tune in 108.40 and the thing is working normaly. Also PMDG Jetstream can get the VOR no problem. Does it need to have the VOR in the F…

    Hey, I've noticed that FSX runs considerably smoother when running add-on scenery such as PNW. Is this normal? Just curious as to why it would be like this because it's more complex. My computer specs are windows 7 home premium 64 bit intel core i5 3.00GHZ amd hd 7790 8 g ram ... So a decent set up I guess. Just wondering if it would be the same if I ran FSDT vancouver or JFK. Or would that be to intense for my system. If it is what could I improve?

  9. Need some feedback good and bad about taxi2gate states on facebook release is immenent for KMCO/Orlando.. I have bought many airports from fs dreamteam, fly/tampa, and flightbeam. Have been very happy with all these developers., as well as coming out with new patches, and communication on their forums. I would really like to buy this airport in USA, KMCO/Orlando, but what are your feelings about this developer, related to performance, visual, and communicating with problems. Everybody promises the best, but please try to be realistic. thanks, Ronny

  10. Hi all, firstly, yes I am 8 years behind you all and very sorry for a simple question from a new guy. I bought the game a week ago as I wanted just to try it out. I have been having a LOT of fun with this. I just have a tiny question about Free Flight in the CRJ700 if that is ok? I am trying to do an ILS landing (Aberdeen from Birmingham) and for the life of me I cannot get the ILS to enter a glide path. I am entering the code into the Radio Stack which is 109.9. I am turning on Nav one. I set a WP just in the North Sea heading directly into Aberdeen and I could swear I have everything right. I can hear what seems like Morse Code as I approach and I am trying to follow …

  13. Hey, Even though I am using P3D, but I am posting here b/c of FSX/P3D both have the Scenery.cfg order, and I am so confused on how this file works. I also have the SceneryConfigtool 1.1. My question - I have a clean install with FS Global Mesh Added. Shouldn't this mesh be the first scenery all the way at the bottom? by default it places somewhere in the middle. I am planning to install some Orbx Sceneries after the mesh. Here is my Scenery.cfg - and can I remove sceneries (uncheck in SceneryConfigTool) which I am not using? And Shouldn't the FS Global Mesh (In Blue Bold) be the Very first entry as it is mesh - instead it comes after Base Sceneries. …

  16. G'day fellow simmers, Long story short after nearly two years decided to return to the world of flight sim. Started with overclocking the hell out of my 3930K on water however it will only do 4.4Ghz safely. Used Word Not Allowed's guide to tweak FSX.cfg and other settings. Everything went smooth and I was very happy with performance purchased REX Direct texture and Essentials plus and Majestic Q400 with all these even in heavy thunderstorm nearly maxed out settings I am getting 20-25 fps so naturally I was over the moon I was finally enjoying my flight sim again. HOWEVER i just remembered that I have purchased PMDG 737NGX so fired it up and my enthusiasm dropped by a…

    hello i was interested to see if there would be interest for a little program that would help getting more current AI traffic packages to FSX users for free Before some of you jump on me with your beloved axe :lol:, the packages would obviously not include any of the original files, those would still have to be downloaded manually by the end-users. it would work like this for the end-user - you launch the program and load the selected package - you download all needed files by clicking on the links (so the author will get his well deserved proper credits and his download counter will go up) - you put them in the work folder - the program automatically detects when all …

    Hope this is O.K. to Post here. I have my own 737-800 cockpit, (run FSX), and use Project Magenta software for my instrumentation. On a spare PC I have, I have recently installed Windows 7 x86 and run a PM Program called 'WhazzUp' on a small monitor within my Sim. This is basically a map showing what ever flight plan I have installed into my FMC. Anyway, although no Key Board or Mouse is plugged into this PC, I have a white Mouse Arrow in center of screen over Map. If I close program, and plug in a mouse, it works quite normally. I have tried everything I know to get rid of it, and have posted a request to Project Magenta, but I think this must be a Windows 'thin…

However when I tune into a known VOR frequency that is within the VOR's range, there is no OBS needle activity, and I cannot get an ident. Am I missing something really fundamental? Incidentally I do have the Nav/GPS button in the NAV position.
