The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

As the topic suggests, is it somehow possible to change F to C and inch to hPa in the XP11 weather settings?

Anyone can offer an opinion? The vFlyteAir version has just been updated to version 5.0 with full XP-11 support and Reality XP GTN 650. It is also much lower price than the JustFlight version (even with the current sale price). The vFlyteAir also has the Aspen as well. I obviously don't want to get both. Thanks

Nice information from flightdeck2sim (real pilot) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZiGAipxKIUU "flightdeck2sim Hi Chaps, Firstly, thanks for all the positive comments and messages regarding this tutorial using the excellent ZIBO freeware MOD for the 737-800 on my first outing with X-Plane. As many of you’re commenting and asking very similar questions I’ll try and answer the most FAQ’s here! 1. Is X-Plane 11 better than FSX/P3D? I've never tried P3D but I've been told the FM is the same as FSX's. After only logging around 10 hours on the X-Plane platform the sim, in my opinion, is miles ahead of FSX. Just from a general user point of view, a f…

Is there anything I can do to get more vibrant colors and less of the grey haze effect that is going on in vanilla xp11? I heard about xenviro and reshade and stuff, but what exactly will give the best effect for least effort?

I downloaded KTPA & the City of Tampa for XP 11 from xp org, but I'm seeing trees in the airport where there should not be any as well as trees in the stadium. The stadium is part of the city scenery. What can cause this and can I fix it? Thanks. Jose

I use Navigraph and have both Navigraph Charts and X-Plane 11 updated to latest version 1802, but when flying to ENCN this afternoon, I set up APR for the ILS R03 per the Navigraph charts as 110.35 but it wasn't captured causing me to overshoot the airport and subsequently crash land, but that was another matter!!! Anyway on checking http://apxp.info/airports/view/ENCN it shows ILS R04 as 110.30. I was using ENCN scenery by tdg. Is the ILS Freq added by the scenery designer or X-Plane. How can I quickly and easily ensure that I'm using the correct ILS Freq for a specific airport? I thought that since XP11 and Navigraph were in synch that they should be th…

I'm using the Zibo 738 and when disconnecting the AP on short final the aircraft nose always drops like the aircraft wasn't trimmed correctly. Anyone else have this problem?

Trying to do a batch build but Ortho4XP keeps hanging and I could really need some help.

I've downloaded and installed two addons whose installation is raising this question. First "XOrganizer" is planted at 'C:/XPlane11/Xorganizer' and apparently does nothing in game. So too is "FSEnhancer" at 'C:/XPlane11/FSEnhancer but it contains two LUA scripts which makes me ask what are the correct file paths for both addons?

Hello all, Update to V3 & running VR. I noticed that some of the buttons on my Pro-Yoke do not functioning properly, and that the Hat switch cease working. Is it a bug I should report ??? Cheers Yair

Trying to figure out how to load my Navigraph data into the GTN 750. It has loaded into the other Xplane default aircraft ok but not into the Eclipse. It doesn/t list any waypoints, nearest airports, etc. Could use some guidance here. I'm using Xplane 11 by the way. Thanks for any help. Jim

Hi, I have recently installed "Reshade 3.0.7", and although the presets seem to work o.k, and apart from X-Plane hanging when shutting down when Reshade is installed, not sure if there is a fix for this, the other problem since installing reshade is when I change airports there is no preview of the airport, i.e no graphic of the runways and parking spots, although they are listed in the left panel. When reshade is removed the graphic is back and normal. I am running X-Plane ver.11.01r2. Thanks, John.

Hello, I just completed a new system build(8700k, 32G RAM, 1080Ti and 1TB M.2 SSD). Due to the release of the Flight Factor A320 and the recent update of the FSLabs, that has not been as I'd hope on my system, I have been looking more and more into adding XP11 to my system. So, at the moment, a 1TB drive only is not enough. Especially since I plan to make use of as much Ortho4XP scenery as I possibly can. So I am wondering what would be the best configurations for a P3Dv4/XP11 setup? I am thinking of wiping everything in an attempt to get the FSLabs running better. So, I can change to any type of config in regards to where Windows and the sims "live". Currentl…

Thought there would be a lot of chatter about this product! Anyone have it?

Hello everyone, Since Jan 30th, I've submitted a request for support regarding MaxxFX and two follow-ups. As of this date, Feb 14th, I have yet to receive a response other than the automatic acknowledgement "Your ticket has been submitted". Is there something I should know about which would explain their silence? Thanks for any guidance. Happy St-Valentine! Jean-Jacques

This is intermittent problem I am having. After I have set up my views using the Ctrl - keypad they work fine (usually). After doing some flying and exiting XPlane (11) and then starting the sim again I have no internal view control. I only have the default 3D forward view. Can't move around using the mouse or using the keypad. I can manipulate the external views just fine with the keyboard or mouse. I deleted the Output Preferences once and let XPlane rebuild. It worked ok a few times but then reverted to the same old problem. If I had any hair left I would be pulling it out. Sure could use some advice. Thanks. Jim

I've been playing with the X-Plane 11 demo and leaning towards buying it up. The discount on Steam certainly makes it look attractive. If I go the Steam vs Direct route, can I still install scenery, aircraft, etc, that isn't through Steam (exp: 3rd party, freeware, etc.)?. I would expect yes, but want to verify before I commit. Frankly, my choice would be direct purchase, but does X-Plane 11 ever go on sale other than through Steam?

For those of you who are new to this bird.....this is a series of videos made by Jon Fly...with a special guest....one of the main developers of the A320...lots of insights and tips for using the product.

Hi all I've been out of Simming for the last year and preparing to build again in anticipation of native VR support. May I ask for some opinions on if it's worth it to go for i7 8700k vs i5 8600k or even i5 8400? I do not want to overclock and now that these are all 6 core models, I'm wondering if the benefits of going i7 (and paying for it) have subsided a bit? Thanks for any thoughts! Note: This is simply a Simming/gaming PC - No other uses whatsoever (I use macOS for everything else, but this will be a Win10 build).

Dear members, I just downloaded the mesh and there is a some problem here. When I was flying to the nearest mountain at my home town I realised there were nothing. No buildings, objects, road... What is the problem? Scenery packs ini edited well. Settings on max.

Been downloading and attempting to install the yOrtho4XP_Overlays_Grand_Canyon_HD/_Arizona/Washington files. Seems to have downloaded and, in the case of the HD, switched from .jpg to .dds okay. I've installed them in 'custom scenery' and am wondering if they shouldn't be in 'global scenery' - if so, would that also apply to 'alpilotx's HD v4 and UHD v1?

Hello,getting back into XPane and just started running beta vr3. All my controls on the aircraft are highlighted a neon green,How do I get rid of those? Thank You.

Gets stuck right at the beginning of startup on "Will initialize plugins".... Any suggestions to get it going?
