Sorry if this is in the wrong thread. I’m new here, and this is the best I could find Could someone tell me how to remove Resentium if it’s not covered in totality with the textures, foliage and autogen(were included) of SFD. From what I can tell, it’s above Resentium everywhere-just want to be sure. SFD is quite amazing Thanks!

Is it possible to see the worldtrafic or xlife AI traffic, in xp11 ?. In Flightsim commander or PlanG. Thanks and best regards.

Mova o Gns 530 para o segundo monitor xplane 10?

I really want to learn how to fly in this thing, I think I've got everything right until I hit AP1 and the plane starts taking somewhere else in the world. I've spent hours on youtube videos on this aircraft and programming the MCDU and the flight plan with it including stars and sids but I just can't get it right. I've included some screenshots I took that will may give some spots I'm forgetting or doing wrong. My throttles are in CLB mode, my flight plan has no discontinuity's in it, and it has been inserted. I've followed many checklists, but I guess it is just something I am doing wrong, if anyone could help me or has a solution please help out, it would be…

In Orbx's Cosford presentation they announced an joint aircraft venture with ESP - a Spitfire Mark IV, hooray. Turns out this'll be A2A's first venture into XP11 - I smell a port or will this be a 'from scratch' model with brand new rivets?

What would you advise as the best source for UK at present please? I was wondering if it's just a simple matter of Bing or GO2 or are their better lesser known alternatives around now? Thanks Phil

Move the Gns 530 to the 2nd monitor xplane 10?

I'm a n00b to the full X-Plane 11 experience, having just upgraded the demo to the full game on Monday. I must admit, coming from FSX:SE I miss the ability to respond to ATC by key presses alone. Part of the reason for that is my simming PC setup, where I always have a gaming keypad readily accessible while my mouse is somewhat awkwardly placed in the center of my desktop. So having to mouse click ATC options and responses is less than ideal for me. I'm wondering if I overlooked something though and if there might actually be some way in-game to have it use key presses instead? I looked under keyboard mappings last night, but only the default [Return] key for displ…

I just made my first two ortho4xp tiles to cover Pittsburgh area at ZL19 (yes I was greedy and ended up downloading 120GB sth in total). The photo images were drop dead gorgeous in XP11. However, I got absolutely no autogens and roads. I did get buildings on airports and custom buildings by a freeware Pittsburgh scenery. I made sure the tiles were at the bottom of package.ini list. What I did in Ortho4xp (v120) was pretty simple. I didn't change anything since I knew very little. I just clicked the "Earth Tile Map" at the very top of main window and it opened a "Tile Collection" map view. I clicked two tiles covering Pittsburgh and hit the "Batch Build" and that…

Hello, Does anyone know if I would be able to select only certain items from the overlay in TE for XP11. I know it's only a personal view but for me I would prefer to not have the houses, I want to keep the trees, wind farms, chimneys etc, can this be done please? Thanks for any advice. Phil

I have tried X-Plane on and off since XP9, and was never quite happy with it. Something always frustrated me, and I always ended up going back to FSX/P3D. Well, things recently fell into place when I discovered that there was a program that let me use Radar Contact from FSX/P3D! Then I found the Reality XP GTN750, and I found out what I was doing wrong with autopilots. I just spent the last week flying X-Plane exclusively, and loved it! Today I opened P3D for the first time in 8 or 10 days, and I have to admit that I really didn't like it! Stutters that I used to ignore were now so annoying, and I couldn't believe how bad the buildings looked. I never noticed it before! W…

I have Active Sky Next for FSX:SE and consider it top quality product providing significant improvements to the weather simulation. With that flight sim though, due to there no longer being active weather updating with the core sim, ASN is a no brainer and an essential if not mandatory product. I'm wondering though, with XP11 being a big step up from FSX:SE, if ASXP is as much an essential product? I've only been flying the XP11 demo and that hasn't given me much exposure to varying weather conditions, so I don't have got a good sense of what's there in the core product. I do find ASN's popup X-Gauge app to be very useful, but from the ASXP webpage it doesn't make clear w…

I know X-Plane 11 occasionally goes on sale on steam for about a 20% discount, but I'd like to be able fly this flight sim without the need to have the Steam client loaded. I'm looking to buy it in the next Sale sale, but having not followed its listing on the Laminar Research store I'm not sure if it's ever goes on sale there? Not that I'm not willing to pay full price for a good sim, but I'm in Canada and this costs me $79.50 CDN on the LR store, whereas it's already $7 CDN less on the Steam and that much more less when it's on sale. So I'm wondering if anyone here knows if it ever gets discounted during sales on the LR store?

Can anyone give me a simple yes or no to the question as to can one add or change aircraft in World Traffic? If yes then how do we do it? I would like to change some of the existing aircraft such as the 747-400 to 747-800, TKS in advance.

I have tried multiple times to reinstall Reality XP GNS 530, but I get a "MoveFile failed; code 5...access is denied. When I first downloaded the software, it did not download the trainer, so in X-Plane 11, I got a GPS 530 image with a blank screen I went back and downloaded the trainer manually (as per Flight1.com) and saved it in the Reality XP folder, thinking that would be the problem. I have deleted folders and folders, and uninstalled the program, but I still get the same error and cannot install it.

Carenado C90B at 8000 ft, the engines will shut off for no reason. I have to send this to the scrap yard. I can not fix the problem.

I just upgraded from a GTX 1060/6 to a GTX 1080/8 and I am still getting the same low FPS at certain airports, with no improved change. I would think that this upgrade would have given me a substantial improvement in performance; but this did not happen. Can anyone provide an explanation why. My system runs on an ASUS Z170, i7/6700, 16Gb Ram, 500Gb SSDx2, Win10/64 and the GTX 1080. My FPS normally resides at around 30 fps with slightly above default graphics, world settings in P3Dv4. It's at (FSDT) KORD, KIAD, (FlyTampa) CYYZ that I get lower FPS. I have tried lowering the graphics settings with only a slight improvement. Thanks.

Just finished reloading the Zibo 737 in X-plane 11 and now it crashes the program. I could not find the FMOD sound package that goes with this mod . Looks like they are out of business. Any idea on how to either find a good copy of the FMOD sound or at least running Zibo by it's self? Terry PS: I had not saved any old Zibo/FMOD files from the past which worked OK so that is why I am trying to get new files.

Go testing the new "feel" of taxiing under x-winds. Go testing the new "feel" of hovering, preferably on a non-SAS heli. And there's a lot more. Overall a good step fwd, IMO.

So I thought I would give XP11 a shot to see if it is worth transitioning from P3D. I downloaded a bunch of the free airport sceneries, mesh etc. Now I am quite impressed with the way the default aircraft handle. However I am a little disappointed with the visuals. The colors look really pale and washed out. Is there a setting or something which I am missing to add some richness to the world around me?

I have a GTN 750 running with realsimgear bezel. Everything works except when CDI is switched from VLOC to GPS. The OBS no longer works, it does not show flags but the localizer and glideslope stay centered. It will navigate to a VOR or along a Localizer course in VLOC/NAV. Can anyone help me fix this? Thanks!

I'm having odd issues where XP11 will be running fine and then wham! I lose both of my displays. I can still hear the aircraft's engines and windows sounds. I tried running my GPUz and CPUz/Realtemp while I was playing and there was nothing out of the ordinary just before this black screen. I have updated my GTX 980 drivers to the latest WHQL. Has anyone ever heard of something like this? Is it a OpenGL related hardware problem? A video card problem? oh I checked window event viewer and it looks like this: Fault bucket 1293515168063254665, type 4 Event Name: APPCRASH Response: Not available Cab Id: 0 Problem signature: P1: dwm.exe P2: 1…

I installed ORBX central to try some of their demos before making a purchase. When it started up for the first time, I selected Flight Simulator X as my simulator, however I would also like to try their products for X-Plane, which is on the same computer. I looked around the settings and found no option to switch the sim. I even tried reinstalling the program however upon startup it would only return to the was it was before. I don't want to go around deleting all the folders manually because I don't want to destabilise the system, although I have very carefully been getting rid of them - these efforts were to no avail however as whatever I do, it will not allow me to ins…

Hi all, I am pretty new to this and do not have a great deal of experience with fly with Lua so I am in need of major help. I have built an overhead panel with 2 function switches for most lights, 3 function switches for seat belts, apu etc.. and 2 decoders for engine starts. I have them all connected to a Leo Bodnar 64 button card http://www.leobodnar.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=300 i have managed to set up the basics such as fuel pumps using create_switch which seem to be working fine. I then get to a couple of issues: 1. When I get to 3 position switches like the smoking signs I can get it to the on position, then to return …

Just bought this item It loaded OK-was activated-but on reload as requested it crashed the sim v11.36 Any ideas what to try? xxd09
