How do I keep the Zebo 737 nose wheel selected each time I turn on the program? On the aux Zebo panel, I have to re-select how I want the nose wheel steering to be activated each time I try to fly the jet. In the default setting, it says "ON". but I cannot steer unless I select Yaw or Roll. to allow my joystick to operate the nose wheel steering. Other settings appear not to change on their own. Is there a "Save" button that I might be missing? Terry PS: Does the Zebo 737 engines seem to be over-powered compare to the default X-Plane 737?

Got a new computer I'm happy with along with X Plane 11. I'm experimenting with the settings but am wondering if I have enough VRAM. I've got an RTX 2080 video card with 8 GB of ram. In my system settings under the display adapter it says I have 8192 Video Memory and Total Available Graphics Memory is 24541....not sure what these numbers are telling me...doesn't have MB or GB next to them so I don't know....also 32GB DDR4 3600RAM. Sitting on the runway at Chicago's Midway Airport in the default Columbia 400...the texture settings rendering option says 701 MB is needed. I'm getting around 35 to 40 FPS but get some stutters when I pan around the cockpit...other than that i…

PC Specs i7-7700k / GTX 1080 / 16GB RAM All planes with default G1000 (Aerobask Robin, Default VisionJet, DA-62) run very choppy (micro-stutters) on my system. Other planes / Heils do not have this problem. I turned down objects / AA / reflections, but the issue remained. I even disabled x-vision...no difference. I was able to fly these planes before with no problem, but something has happened (update etc.) since then to cause this low performance. Any hep would be appreciated.

Hello, I bought the Emb 312 and I like to fly this excellent airplane. But the sounds do not work nor the arrow that should appear on the left side to open the settings ... does anyone have this plane working normally?

Hello! I am primarily a P3D simmer, but I am aware of the superiority of X-Plane when it comes to helicopter simulator. I am wondering what the best training helicopters are for X-Plane 11. I am open to both Freeware and Payware. Also some nice sceneries would be a good addition. Thanks, Andrew

For now I have X plane 10 (and FSX SE P3D 2.5) and consider buying X Plane 11 when it is on sale. But will my computer be able to benefit from the improved features ? I have seen some contradictory information about what it require. My system is CPU I7 4770K OC 4.5 GHz RAM 16 Gb 2200 MHz Video card Nvidia GTX 970 4 Gb The listed recommended requirements is stated as CPU Intel Core i5 6600K at 3.5 ghz or faster I will be fine here as I can see Memory: 16-24 GB RAM or more First this is unambiguous. Which is it 16 or 24 or more ? Are my 16 Gb sufficient ? Video Card: a DirectX 12-capable video card from NVIDIA, AMD or Intel with at leas…

I was notified this morning that a new update was available for x-plane. It went through the normal steps until it got to the final install where it said unable to access file permision denied. Tried several times, thought it might be a server issue, but to no avail. Anyone else had this issue or have any advice or a fix? Thanks Scot

I read where the plan was to ensure that Orbx WA was compatible with the DD SEA airports and DD also claimes this is so. My Scenery_pack.ini has "DD Seattle Airports XP" right at the top - immediately followed by "ARoads" then "XP documents". Way down in the zzz section, I have "ZZZ DD......XP terrain". It's loading default scenery but the airports are good.. DISREGARD - I read the manual, amazing how that helps.

Would someone who has purchased Orbx True Earth Washington go to Lopez Island Airport, S31, for X-Plane and see if you have what I guess is a terrain mesh error on the ramp. It's my favorite airport when I just want to do a quick sightseeing trip around the San Juan Islands, but now there's a big slope that makes taxiing from the ramp impossible. I'm not using any addon mesh, so it may be something introduced by Orbx. Anyway just want to check and make sure it's not me. Thanks in advance John in Indiana

Hello, I picked up Xplane 11 along with ORBX TE Washington, Active Sky XP and the SF 260. So far it has been an enjoyable experience. I am using it with a Vive Pro and using the mouse and joystick controls to interact with the plane. I do have a question or two that maybe someone could help me with. 1) The VR view has this "tablet" connected to the yoke that you can move around with the mouse. Aside from moving it around no other mouse interactions seem to have any impact on the tablet. It just turns green or the home button turns green but clicking on it doesn't seem to to anything. Am I missing something on how to operate this? Is there a way to get ri…

Hi everyone! After 10 years of FSX and P3D I decided to buy a copy of X-Plane 11. First, I have to say that it looks so much better than P3D, even without add-ons. However, there are some things that really bother me and kind of jeopardize the experience: 1. Every plane needs aileron trim adjustments. I'm a PPL pilot and I often fly with my PA28. I never noticed such behavior IRL. 2. When I minimize XP11 to the taskbar, the sim keeps sucking performances as it if was open. This is bothering when flying long-hauls and I want to work on some stuff while cruising. On the other hand, with P3D you can notice that the sim significantly reduce it's performanc…

Hello all, I just purchased the new KISP airport add-on from the XP store, its my home airport, and it is very realistic, I luv it, however I noticed one strange thing, the main heavy border lines, that are supposed to be yellow, like the taxiway or runway lines, they have a shade of purple over them, pretty much look full purple. Its not my monitor settings, & everywhere else in XP the lines are the correct yellow, but not in this add-on, was just wondering if anyone had any thoughts on this? Thanks.

Hi, I just invested in Xvision today. I was using UWXP 2.4.1 with Reshade (sharpen and curves only). I wanted to try it out if I could replace Reshade and maybe UWXP. For now I tried a solution by Filou I found on Orbx forum which mixes with UWXP but the result is not so great on my system. For those using Xvision, could you please advice what is the best available solution to try out ? Thanks for help, Pierre

Hello fliers, I have read that it's best to buy the sim from a downloadable source, someone like Steam rather than buy the set of discs from an order house? Some people have problems with the discs loading correctly and other issues as well. What is your advice? Thanks.

Hi. I posted this is a other forum, where I was told basically that this aeroplane hasn't been coded to ever work on a networked PC, and it was suggested I try to reach out to the developers, here, to check this? My original post: Ok hoping someone can help me out here. So I've networked two pcs, one as master, (central screen) and one as slave (external visuals, left and right screens). No firewall. Initially when I did it, x plane told me it only supported ipv6 protocol...so that took me ages to work out, but I got it going in the end. It was working, but terrible..the TBM 900 was fine on the master, but it wasnt sending proper signals to the slav…

I'm thinking about getting a computer for X Plane 11 only and no add-ons...just the defaults as they are. XForce has one for $1,600. it's an intel 6 core i5 9600 overclocked to 4.8....intel Z390 chipset motherboard....16 GB DDR-4 3200 MHZ RAM supports up to 64GB...NVidia RTX 2060 6GB GDDR 6 and 700 watt power Supply. I'd like to be able to run X Plane 11 at medium to high settings...with or without HDR and be able to fly into , out of KJFK or over NYC using downloaded real weather in nasty cloudy conditions and get somewhere around 40 FPS. I can do that now in X Plane 10 and would like to do it in X Plane 11 if that computer would be fast enough. Please let me know what y…
