Gentlemen,I am starting a revolt and I encourage all that can to spread this and make it viral. Captainsim and VRS are stealing ideas and code that have been in development and released as freeware for the last year. It is not fair for a company to take advantage of our community's contributors time and talent to discover the hidden secrets of FSX and then create a product that practically guarantees that you will have to buy their product in order to use. I am talking about the "Weapons For FSX" and "Tack Pac". The concept of weaponizing FSX with AI SAMs, missiles, droppable objects, guns, and Air to Air weapons have been in development in our community by many dedi…

Uggh never mind

Dear all,I am FS fanatic. And I enjoy wacthing anf following ai aircafts. I think that the Traffic view Board developed by Arnt Helge is one of the top contributions to the FS world. Like wise I , have been inspired by the attempts of others, to improve sounds for AI aircrafts and traffic for FS2004. Ai sounds for FS2004, remains in need of improvements. I am not an expert on coding and programming. However, I hope that the following suggestions, would inspire you to use your skills, in order to develop proper coding and sound effect files for ai aicrafts. I would be your first client waiting to pay for your work. I believe that with proper coding, it might be possible t…

I hate doing this. I bought FSDT KDFW scenery for FS2004 on August 11. The download became corrupted and had an install issue. I thought no problem I will redownload and all would be wll. I hit the link in the email they sent when I bought it to redownload. Low and behold it says I exceeded my maximum amout of downloads???? I only downloaded once and that download was corrupted. I sent and email, no reply after a few days. Sent another one and again no replay after a few days. Go to join the support forum and have to wait for Admin approval first. Still waiting. Sent another email yesterday and no reply. Signed up again under the support forum and again waiting on admin a…

FsFuel.com is an innovative product which produces Computerized Flight Plans (CFP) and Loadsheets for virtual flights. Every real flight crew gets these in briefing room prior to departure. In simulated environment, however, up until now pilots had to manually prepare for their flights. It is a tedious process which not only requires a lot of time, but also very specialised knowledge. Some virtual pilots for this reason do not bother with flight planning.This product performs most parts of flight planning process. It is the first of it’s kind on virtual aviation market and offers very advanced computations which can even be used for real–world flight planning. Whether you…

How do I merge the REALITY XP WX500 into the Ariane 737-800 cockpit panel in the navigation display?I need to change panel.cfg I don't know how please help.

Hi, I have bought PMDG 747 add on aircraft, but there are errors regarding autopilot. The autopilot command for altitude don't want to work. All other commands works (VS and altitude hold are also among them), but if I set the altitude with altitude selector know autopilot don't want to reach the set altitude.

Hi all, sorry if this is in the wrong part fo the forum but I didnt know where else to put it. :)I want to try adding my own AI traffic to my sim but dont really know how to do it. I have tried doing it but it never works. I see so many AI repaints in the library and would love to have them on my sim. I was wondering if someone could take me through it step by step or if anyone knows anywhere that has already listed it out, in the simplest possible way.Thanks, Ollie

OK, I've researched this problem, and it seems the reason why AESHelp isn't running for me is because AESHelp is running in "Win XP Admin Mode." AESHelp is the only program that runs in this mode on my computer and because of this, FSX doesn't connect. My question is how do I run AESHelp in Standard mode. Thanks for your help.

FBS has developed a lights interface for the PMDG Boeing 747-400 for FS2004 and FSX, specifically for cockpit builders.Use it to obtain the status of all lights, from Overhead to CDU panels, through FSUIPC or to drive your lights directly through Phidgets LED64 Advanced boards.Visit www.flyboysshop.com to download a trial copy or to learn more.

hi all,I have a little problem with my addon. :/ When I installed this addon, it is in my flight simulator but I can't see it. In the main menu at opinion I can see white screen only and when I run the game all screen is white. When I choose 2-D cocpit I can see it, but only front cockpit, when I want to rotate 90 degrees for example, the screen is white again. the same addon but for FS 2004 works for me without problems. Where may be a problem? :/ Thank you so much!Peter

i've been kicking this idea around in my head for quite some time now, and i decided this would be the best place to express this idea. Also, i didn't get much in the fs9 section, and given that some of you are programmers, you may be able to explain the logistics a little but more in depth. So here's the idea: FS9 single player ATC. Now obviously, this is a pretty big thing. I understand. But is it at all possible? Even if it's payware, i would pay some SERIOUS $ for a payware fs single player ATC! :( But what i was thinking is like a tower view, and you could control the aircraft. I mean there are AI separators and programs that put more aircraft in holding pa…

I placed a similar post in the FSX forum. I overlooked this forum where hopefully those of you that are developers might be of help.2D panels are no problem, but 3D Virtual modifications are a new mysterious animal to me. To say that I don't know what I am doing here would be an understatement.Example:The new freeware LuscombeX does not have a 2D panel, but does have a great looking 3D Virtual display. Due to the fact that the "ignition" switches, both left and right will not work imdependently (Closeing one closes both, shutting down the engine), I tried to add the default C172 "Cessna! Starter" gauge so that possibly mags could be checked on runup. All attempts that wor…

I was wondering how one might go about getting information about the windows from other programs or parts of flight simulator? Details such as the ATC Window prompts?I am thinking of a program/addon that would allow the user to use voice prompts to interface with flight simulator ATC that is built in. I've tried other voice ATC programs and been a bit dismayed. All I would like is a bit simpler ATC and what better than whats already in the software? Depending on what you can send to the ATC controller via 1-0 keys, the voice reco program/addon would recognize only certain responses from the user. If talking to a tower controller, the options are:0 - Request Taxi1 - O…

Hmm. when i got FSX, everything but the SDK was ok. BUT the SDK installation files were corrupt. i never thought i would need it so i didnt care.however when i got acceleration, i got the sdk thats there,
