    HI all! Sorry if this has been asked before but I cannot find it anywhere. I'm looking for a file from FS-MP.com called Oshkosh Airport Scenery 2011.zip . But everytime I try to grab it I can only get through 40meg of the file before it failes. Does anyone know where I can get this file or at least one that will give me the "dots" on the runways? Thanks in advance. Oh and it's FSX with Acceleration Pack

    Hello, my FSX works like a charm without any tweaks, but lately I have a small issue that sometimes it becomes annoying. When I switch on my computer and start the FSX for the first time, everything works ok, but when I select an airplane (default or addon) from the main menu it takes around 4-5 mins to appear on the screen. Starting again FSX for the second time, without switching off my computer, then everything works normal and fast. I noticed that this happens only when I switch off and then on my computer and start FSX. I also noticed that this issue appeared after I installed PILOT'S FS Global Ultimate Europa Afrika. I may be wrong but I can't find any logical …

  4. G'day, I've been using FSX since the the begining and have been flying all sort of aircraft and now I have purchased the PMDG 737NGX. It is a wonderful aircaft in every aspect. I love flying it however I do not have the time to go through the complex FMC setup before every flight and I also like to hand fly the plane which give me satisfaction I undrestand and admire the FMC and the procedures but I do not just want to press computer buttons and watch the plane fly itself I want to be part of the action. So what I would like to do is: Handle take off myself completely following ATC instructions then once reached cruising altitude hand over control to FMC and again t…

  5. Finally got Essentials downloaded, but a bit hesitant to pull the trigger on uninstalling REX 2.0 after reading a few posts where some users report that it (Essentials) runs even slower than 2.0. Generally, I don't mess with REX once I have let it install it's textures, i.e., I don't change clouds or anything every time I fly. I guess I am just confused, and reading the REX forums generally leaves me more confused. Oh, and I am not someone who is comfortable with moving files and such-pretty much a lamer when it comes to that "stuff". Is Essentials that much better?

  6. Hi all, Do you know which GA payware aircraft(s) actually has this bug fixed by masking it in their system simulation? Surely advanced and sophisticate developer like RealAir and Milviz plus may be other know how to beat this bug? It seems super silly to keep heating the carb when there is none. Thanks for replying.

    I would like to know in what way this plane differs from the PMDG 737NGX. Also I have seen that there is a FS9 version of iFly 737. That leads to the question if the FSX version is a portover or native FSX? That would be important with regard to performence. Is FSX native 737NGX performing better than iFly 737? One difference I'm already aware of is that iFly is less expensive than PMDG.

  10. Hi, I found a text file called Oblivision effect, it is a text file only (.txt) on ENB Developer website, I contacted him and he advised some changes, I managed to do the changes and the major challenge was to tweak ENB to make it work with this text file to add realism by correcting fsx colors and adding Fog plus some other gama corrections. It sharpens the Graphics and I like it, so thought to share it with you... So please, for the sake of FSX love, try it and leave your comments if you have any so I can work on it and improve it more, The following is a download link (if posting a download link is not allowed by forum rules or something, then I apologi…

    Since my youth I have a serious loss of hearing. My hearing aid gives me a lot of help, but it has it's restrictions. Ever since I have become an fsx enthousiastic, especialy with the pmdg 737ngx, i have been looking for a way to replace the fsx atc (wat a dragon). Online atc{Vatsim}, is not an option, but also radarcontact is difficult because you still have to set squake box and other things. Fs2crew buttton edition is a copilot assistance, and not a replacement for atc. With the knowledge, that there must be more pilots with the same handicap, (we all get older), I just would wonder if a program like radarcontact could be developed with the same interface as fsx a…

    I am fairly new to FSX. I have had prior versions of Flight Simulator which I think the map was better than in FSX. Also, if I remember correctly, there used to be one or several third party options that had much better maps. I use one single monitor. Any suggestions?

  17. I might be asking obvious questions here, but I sure would appreciate some guidance; I have FSUIPC and WideFS and use a second computer for TOPCAT and FSCOM and I really like them both. However, I would like to be able to run a FMC and GPS and some other instruments on the second networked computer (or a dedicated 3rd) as well. What do I need? Is this possible/available as a payware addon. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Tom

    I've downloaded and installed lots of Ray Smith's excellent AFCADs for FSX. I've found all of them to be of a very high standard, easy to install, and a vast improvement on the FSX defaults. This is particularly useful for me, because I have Flight 1's Ultimate Traffic 2, which generates lots of AI traffic, sometimes too much for the default airports.He doesn't include any contact information in his downloads, so having just downloaded and installed his latest one, for VHHH, I would just like to say a big thank you to him for ll he's doing to make FSX a much better experience.Keep it up, Ray!

  21. Hello everybody! My system specs: intel core i7 2600K @3.40GHZ Radeon HD 6870 4GB ram I have also tweaked my fsx file using vevetubos tweaking tool. I use PMDG 737 with REX weather addon and this is important: Im using the highest resolution for the game along with frametates set to unlimited. I use addon airports by aerosoft. I tried UTX and GEX but if I have them enabled with my graphics and highest resolution...i will lag :(. Anybody have this problem? because if i set my resolution to lowest i dont lag but then the aircraft looks like S***. Can I have the aircraft interieur look good while the resolution is on the lowest? please answer!!
