Can someone plz tell me if I download pmdg 737ngx can I install it on two computers or do I have to pay separately

Hi there, I've been following most of the PFPX posts, but wanted to make sure I understand this first before purchasing. I usually fly with AS2012 and know how to plan a flight, interpret weather and choose an appropriate STAR and runway myself. My question is, if PFPX handles this for me, will the destination runway not only conform with wind conditions per AS2012, but will those runways also be used accordingly by AI? My biggest frustration with FSX is that I can plan all I want, only to find out that AI is using a different runway, probably because it's called for it by weather and AFCAD (sorry, I'm not too savvy on afcads). I'm hopeful PFPX scans all afca…

I have UTX, SceneryTech, FSGenesis and even looked at Cloud9, and OpenVFR but all those seem to still be lacking. Since we have much better free source data since 2007-8 when most LC was created, is there anything else remotely acceptable available right now? Anyone know of planned updates or new add-ons besides ORBX that might be a better alternative to the aforementioned products?

I was flying along in the CS767 all of a sudden my PC goes to desktop. I get back into FSX and this message saying somthing about Parkme is outdated and should be replaced with GSX nither of which I have installed I clicked ok and FSX came back up, but everytime I'd unpause FSX the same message would reappear finally FSX crashed. I relanched FSX. While waiting I went to browse the web and my keyboard went haywire typing or hitting key combo's that I wasn't pressing so I shut down the PC and all seemed well on reboot. But when I relanched FSX it asked me to appove addons that I already had months back. So I checked my CFG file and everything had been deleted!!! as in FSX m…

So for the last few years i've basically exclusively flown the tubelinersand got pretty good at it. Learned all the systems, route planning, hand flying it, sids. stars, FMC, etc. Yesterday i downloaded a nifty freeware Cessna 150 and i haven't had this much fun in FS in years! I'm totally hooked on the GA flying now. My question is where do I take it? Airlining always had a sense of direction and what to try and learn next but this is a whole new thing and i'm not too clued up on it (last time I actually flew a plane in real life was 8 years ago and all we had time for was flying some patterns). So far i can use VORs, I can use NDBs to navigate with the RMI and …

Saw this on their Facebook page, thought it would be too good not to share here... You may wonder why the development team seems to be so quiet these days? Don't worry, we never stopped working. We are a very small team and Oleksiy is very busy at this moment working in parallel on the next PILOT update and on the future PRO edition. PILOT edition: addressing known issues, namely approach mode disconnect and absence of turbulences. Both corrections are now being tested. Some other bugs will also be corrected. In addition to the FSX turbulence settings, turbulence will also be automatically generated when flying through the clouds, depending on the cloud type and den…

Saw this today, had no idea it was in development! Bearskin Airlines flies the metro III into my home airport and I've wanted one in FSX for years. Screenshots look great, turboprop modeling and flight dynamics will be a wait and see - but I'm getting this either way. http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?73878-RAZBAM-Metroliner-III

New computer with W7 64, FSX with Acceleration addon, Loaded Opus 3.10.2 from server. Loaded code into dll. It runs OK but has to be start manually stops OK after FSX closedown. Any help please.

Well I was finally able to successfully run FSInn and FSX in fullscreen...with one major drawback...I am SOMETIMES able to minimize fsx to view other windows (acars, ASE, etc). but it seems after a few trys FSX will no longer restore correctly. I hear the sim running and as you can see in the screenshot FSINN is running. but if I try and click to restore it...CTD and Fatal Error.

Guys iv been a simmer from the very early days, have most scenerys for uk, but am suprised that not one developer has even made EGJJ airport, or even scenery for fsx. Is there a reason y, maybe down to getting the right persmissions?? I feel that there maybe a few simmer eager to fly there dash 8 there, as i for one am one of them. Thanks for your time.

It is out......... http://www.flight1.com/products.asp?product=uadc9classic

Hi I have had to reload FSX. The FSX (Gold) part loads and plays although it did not load an icon to the desktop all aircraft and scenery appear normal. When I try to load the acceleration all goes well and it loads from disc. When the sim starts the normal screen appears but when you select an aircraft the view is of an aircraft in kit form with bits missing or not attached to the aircraft and if the sim is started the scenery has black/blank areas and the aircraft is also in kit form. My computer which is Windows 7 with an nvidia graphics card has run FSX and acceleration before without problems. I have tried several reloads using various compatibi…

PFPX has just been released ;-)

Why do airplanes have the option to turn off the 'No Smoking SIGN' ? Smoking is completely illegal on airliners, so why even have the switch?

If I right click on a program like REX or even FSX for that matter that is on my ( C ) Drive , and send it over to My External Hard Drive ( J ). Then delete the program that was on My ( C ) Drive originaly just to free up space. Would that cause any problems ?

I'm using a stupid gamepad to control fsx so my control over the brakes is not easy and they lock-up easily. I noticed turning ON anti-skid fixes the problem, but I have to do it each time I start a flight or when refreshing the aircraft/scenery. Is there way to turn this ON by default in the cfg?

Sometimes the elevator and ailerons don't work. The throttle and rudder always work. If I pick another plane or airport , it might get everything to work. Sometimes everything is working at the end of the runway, then shortly after take off the ailerons and elevator stop working. I made sure the usb ports don't go to sleep. I made sure the axis and callibration in FUISPC 4 was not installed so not to interfer. My joystick is an X-52 Saiteck. Don't know what else to do.

Recently rebuild my FSX.cfg file after installing FTX Global. I have also updated Sweetfx config file to give better contrast. I Also have SHADE that I sometimes run on startup (but not always) Once FSX loads up (this takes the normal time), and airport and aircraft have been selected, my visuals are stunning and everything runs along fine - the problem is this; Selecting an Airport now takes an exceedingly long time before I get control back of the pointer Similarly with selecting an aircraft model. Not quite sure what has happened to cause this and any pointers would be gratefully received delete the shaders and allow a rebuild ? ( had already done th…

How do the fuel trucks and other vehicles work at an FSX airport? I know you need vehicle parking spots at the airport. Does the AFCAD have to have a vehicle path defined for them. Is there a traffic file for each of them? I would like to add some other vehicles, like buses, to an airport. Can it be done without disturbing the other vehicles? Thanks, Bob.

While flying in certain planes I losing some functions. This especially seems to be happening when flying the Captain Sim, C130. After a certain time, lets say 15 minutes, but could be more or less, I'll lose the screen on the GPS (it will go black (blank). Also the autopilot will quit working (not necessarily following a course, but just maintaining alt). The landing gear won't respond either, but I found out if you keep hitting Alt + G, it will then toggle down. (One time it just continued flying for awhile, and then corrected itself and operated normally). This same sort of thing happens occasionally when flying the PMDG's 747x, but there is no GPS screen. Usually…

I bought the PA46 last night and did a flight from Bear Gultch to KJAC. Starting with the VC. As usual Carenado has included every detail you can imagine from a slightly worn panel and slight crazering of the plexiglass to high-res stickers on the windows. On takeoff roll from Bear Gultch Climbing to FL17 On the ILS into KJAC Shutdown. Exterior is typical of Carenado in that it is in high res and looks perfect. Final into KJAC Flight Caricteristics the plane handles like I would expect the real thing to, I don't have anytime in the PA-46 but the Carenado model flys like a realworld high performance single does. The climb to 1…

Its going to be a big week. PC Aviator has just released YPAD Adelaide INTL for FSX. It works with default FSX and also Orbx (thank you finally). And for those awaiting PMDG 777, Emirates fly there using a B773 daily (ooops no B773 straight away). Fly in there often in real life and a busy little Intl airfield. So YPAD, PMDG B777 and a decent flight planner in one week. Next FlyTampa will also release YSSY in August......maybe not but I am sure worth the wait. Here is the link, am down loading now so cannot comment yet but thank you PC Aviator for supporting Australian airfields. http://www.pcaviator.com.au/store/ Cheers Miles

Hi All. I have a problem. As seen in the (hopefully) attached screenshot, I am getting hugely fuzzy/pixelated/bad (how else can I describe them?) textures. This happens to the trees all the time and most of the ground when the land detail textures are on, compared to not as much when they are off. I have been trying settings with all sorts of things including the graphics card and the in game settings but nothing seems to work. I have recently started with a clean install of FSX which would have cleared any other problems I may have had. One other thing which I think is the problem, I got FSPS's Xtreme FSX PC editor to do stuff with the cfg but I cannot for th…

You Guys might want to check this out, looks great, start to finish. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWzlGktldOo

Hello friends I hope everyone here is good. I read in so many websites there is something called rendering preview or ram & speed up ram preview. Guys is this really could improve my performance in fsx, especially my ram is 8GB corsair platinum 2133 ( its the last generation from corsair ). My specs is : i7 2600K at 5.2 GHz, ASUS GTX680 DCUII TOP. I get from 20 to 25 frames in heavy scenery. Yesterday i see reviews about rendering preview and really need to know is this can improve my fsx performance. Note: ( i use the completely Word Not Allowed Guide and every thing is okay ). Just what about ram rendering preview ?
