I've been participating in a thread about FS9 recently which has discussed various Nvidia settings and had a pleasant discovery, thanks to a post someone shared. I've always had a problem in FSX where aircraft did not get anti-aliased unless their textures were mipped. Many designers, such as Carenado, don't use mipped textures so unless I edited them one at a time in DXTBMP, I couldn't enjoy the nice smooth lines of anti aliased aircraft repaints. I shared my Nvidia settings in the FS9 thread and someone posted theirs, although they were unaware of my FS9 issue. I tried their settings out and they looked nice in FS9. Later in the day I flew FSX as I always do …

Hi Guys, I am unsure if this is the place but I was wondering if anyone has made a FSX ytwb (Toowoomba QLD Australia). I am trying to make scenery but I suck, and time is poor in my world atm. Or would anyone be interested to make it.I use YTWB as a gateway to the west in my Air Hauler franchise and would like a more accurate and athletically pleasing airport. Thanks Ben

Hello, I just bought Opus, mainly for the weather engine, but discover it also provide some kind of function for the camera. I have a Track Ir and essentialy fly GA aircraft where I don't need to focus on a specific part of the cockpit, in that respect do I have any advantage in using the active camera option ? (documentation is a bit criptic so I'm not sure to understand all the functionality of the active camera option...) Thanks in advance

Found whilst browsing: http://www.apptlantis.com/reviews/ios/app/537253628 Will it be helpful for flight simmers too or are there enough of these utilities around ??? Need the experts opinions Denis Brown

Does anyone know if Majestic has started work on the Pro version yet, Im waiting to buy the Pro becuase I want the HUD Take Care

Up until just now it has been raining cats and dogs, and has been overcast. Yet in REX, you'd think it was a nice sunny day out. and 9 10ths of the time when I fly someplace where I am fairly certain that there should be some sort of overcast weather, or precipitation there is none. It's like there is no weather, and all this is is a thing to make the clouds look pretty, even when REX downloads the weather, there is no change in the barometer or apperance in the clouds. What am I doing wrong? I'm pretty much just using default settings.

I have just recently noticed a strange phenomenum when flying at say 30,000 feet of the clouds flashing back at me when they are surrounding the mountains. Any suggestions or thoughts would be most welcome. Many thanks in anticipation. Michael

I know opusfsx has a historic weather feature, but for example, lets say I wanted to simulate a flight into a hurricane. How would I go about doing that? Let's use Hurricane Katrina as an example. Do I just find the exact date and time and let opusfsx download it?

Okay, this is probably a pretty common or easy to fix problem but I cant find it anywhere else, so, here goes. My first issue is random FPS drops. My computer specs are under my profile pic. Usually, the highest FPS I see is about 30 - 35 FPS for about 10 - 60 seconds or so, then it drops about 50 - 80% to around 5 - 15 frames, then it will slowly recover at about 2 FPS every 3 - 5 seconds, until its back at 30 or so, then about 10 - 60 seconds later it will happen again. I have FSX settings and CFG set up at per Nick N's guide over at simforum based on my hardware and tweaked with ******* Bojotes tweaker. I only see this issue with my addon aircraft (PMDG NGX and FSLabs…

Hi all, hopefully I'm right here. My question is what noise abatement procedure is used mostly in european especially german airports. Does anyone know which one is flown in EDDT, EDDF, EDDM, LMML? I know these 2: Are there more to be flown? If this is aircraft relevant, how does 737 (classic), A320 and md11 fly those?

I have just purchased this product following its rave reviews. I have downloaded it and everything is fine. Now I know that I can get Opus to start up automatically everytime by pasting the Opus text into the FSX exe file but I do not really want to mess around with that file in case I cock it up. I have transferred the Opus Server icon on to my task bar and am I right in saying that once I fire up FSX I can then click on the Opus icon in order for it to start operating within the game. I apologise if the answer is obvious. Michael

I had problem with PMDG and FSDREAM TEAM scenery and read to uninstall acceleration and SP1 and 2 and reinstall them. I did and now when I go to choose a plane, they are all there but when I choose one, the screen is all black with nothing. When I press Fly to load it samething. I can hear the plane but black screen. I try to activate my acceleration but it doesn't work so I press later. Can anyone help please? Thanks Al I attached a picture hope it work. Al

I am using a MacBook Pro for FSX using BootCamp with Windows 8 and I have some questions about tweaking. I already read lots of pages about the configuration and tried bojote's modification but I still have questions because my setup is different from most of the people. John Venema has the similar setup like mine being only difference is a retina display so the CPU and GPU are same. He wrote in his signature that he only uses BP=0 and Highmemfix. I was using affinitymask=14 before but I can't disable HT because it doesn't have any BIOS, it uses EFI. I tried 255 and it seemed like working better. Also CPU is set to work as 3.3 Ghz cause it would be risky to overclock a la…

I am using UT2 for FSX with the summer 2012 schedule. I have set my time accordingly to make sure I am seeing AI. Once FSX is loaded and my plane is on the runway, I see the lights of planes in the air all over the place. However I never see any action at the airport on the ground itself. There's no planes taxiing to and from the gates for takeoff, no attempted planes are landing either. What gives?

Hi, I have just flights A320 Jetliner and i love it. But I really want to have the wings visible when in the VC (by pressing Ctrl+Enter to move back). I saw on the product page that there is an option for showing the wings from the interior view (wingview), but i can never figure it out. Unless its that view where you go to the aircraft tab and select left or right window, but that view is from the outside, and I really want it from the interior. so please help. Thanks.

There is a great program called VPedit.exe in the FS2004 ATC SDK. It will read the FSX gvp sound file and allow you to list and listen to each entry in the gvp file. It even works on the accelerated gvp made with EVP 4.0. Is there any way to get the text output into a spreadsheet so the gvp files listed can be searched? Thanks, Bob.

I see some painters post b767-300 textures with options for FS9 and FSX, but I can't find model (non-winglet) for FSX. I was able to find one model for FSX on avsim.com , but it only include model with GE engines. :huh:

Hey guys, I am having problems with the Q. Shortly after takeoff the sound is just stopping. Everything is flying ok just the sound goes away! haha. I am running ASE2012, UT2 and EZCA. Any input would be greatly appreciated! Brad

I am a casual simmer, who mostly enjoys flying GA aircraft in Orbx areas, mainly the Pacific Northwest. I have been setting up flight plans within FSX, and just have learned how to do ILS landings. That said, is the Q400 a good choice for me? Can I set up the flight plan within FSX and have the Q400 recognize it? I know the Q400 is a very realistic simulation, but can it be flown in a more simple mode by us non flyers in the real world. I do love the looks of this plane.

Not sure why but when flying I can see the scenery load and just magically appear. Do you think it's because I need to defrag my HDD? I have my fsx installed on my 2nd HDD and its a 3TB drive and I have about 20gb left, which is seriously running low on space. Since I keep everything on this drive. Not sure if defragging is even possible or will improve my results in fsx at this moment since I have hardly any space left. Let me know if defragging will fix these annoying pop up issues or if the cause has to do with a fsx.cfg setting such as buffer pools, reject threshold, etc.

Hello, http://fsxdb.com/ (FSX Database) is interested in providing airline gate assignments for their airport database service. This would give the user knowledge of which gates to start and end a flight at with the livery of the carrier they choose to fly. So if you start a flight at say, Atlanta as Delta, you would know which gates Delta uses and which gates Delta would be using at your destination airport. They would like to know where this information can be acquired to build into their database. Does anyone have an idea of where this kind of information can be gathered?

Hello, hello. I have the SkySimulations DC9 in FSX and have a small problem: the rudder won't stop flapping. How do I fix this? And if it helps, I have FSUIPC 4.9_.

I have the Dash7 for FSX by Milton Shupe (dash7pkgx.zip). When he flaps are fully down the flap gauge goes to 32°. There are two flap sections in the aircraft.cfg. Flaps.0 says it is for leading edge flaps and has 0°, 15°, 25°, and 32°. Flaps.1 says it is for trailing edge flaps and has only 0° and 32°. The extending times are not equal for the leading edge and trailing edge flaps. I don't understand because I believe there are no leading edge flaps. Looking at the code for the flap indicator gauge says it is reading the leading edge flap position. Can anyone explain the flap indicator gauge to me? Are there leading edge flaps? Thanks, Bob.
