Hi all, In the past, I have submitted numerous airports to the gateway for XP 10. One of those submissions is causing problems in XP 11. I used an admittedly odd hack to create 'docks' for a seaplane base (picnic tables over the water). At the time, and maybe even now, there were no floating objects. i.e. objects that would float on the water, whatever the level was. I had to hard code the elevation of the tables. Now they are floating in mid air. So, I downloaded the latest WED and went to import the airport from the gateway so I could fix it and resubmit. I could not find the airport in the list of available airports to import (because I think they only…

Has anyone run into this? X-Plane 11 error is saying: "X-Plane is missing a required resource: keyboard_key.png" I have tried to google the file name but come up with nothing. I would appreciate any help. Thank you, Bob

Hello there, I bought World Traffic 3 recently and for some smaller airports (Like my home airport EGAA) that don't have custom scenery but doesn't work with WT3. Because of this I can't make the airport functional with my WT3 in my sim. How do I open default airports in WED, also if you can, how do you open default airports on OverlayEditor so I can get rid of static aircraft. Regards, …

JV just announced his Roadmap for 2018 and Orbx is going to do XP-11 scenery along with a host of other sims. If you have access to the Orbx Forum go read it and look at the slew of screenshots he posted. Dale

Just tired running this in XP11 and its amazing - only trouble is when I fly over Heathrow I get an airport without any buildings just runway and airplanes - note have tried changing the location of the GB Pro folder from right at the top using a aaa prefix(above payware airports) to mid way down (after payware aiports) still get no buildings - someone has mentioned something about creating exclusion zones around the airport but not sure what that means.....................any help appreciated?

hi guys, i have a question about orthoxp. after everything is generated and the tiles and overlays are put in the custom scenery folder, does the osm data thats created from orthoxp of any use? can it be used for roads ect... or do i just need to discard it afterwards? there is a masks and osm data folder, i was curious if it can be used for anything. anyway thanks for any replies, merry christmas and a happy new year.

Hello I've recently picked up X-Plane 11 during the steam sale. I have 12GB of RAM installed on my PC. When I start X-Plane up, in the home screen itself, it is eating up about 9GB of RAM. When I select the default Cessna (without the G1000), and select any airport, and click on launch, it runs out of RAM during loading ! No sceneries, no nothing installed. Turning down the Graphic setting does not seem to change this either. Any help on how to fix this ? Cheers 9W

Hi everyone, I am brand spanking new to X-plane world. Just bought X-plane-11 about 2 days ago. It will take some time to spend some time in this simulator. Got few easy questions. I have one area in sim with HD Mesh 4 and one area with US Ortho Project (Mid-Atlantic region...whopping 128gb size). Now Orth4XP is very cool and all but the space requirements are insane and I only have 512gb SSD (which can not sustain whole lot of Orth4xp). What I want to do is have city Land class roads etc using default textures with HD Mesh 4. How is that possible? This is kinda like the Orbx approach in P3D or UTX. I want mesh, landclass, and proper city pl…

I’ve spent a long time flying in FSX, with PMDG+FS2Crew being my by far favorite combination. That said, I’ve recently discovered X-Plane 11 and I’m more than hooked. The possibilities seem endless and it runs really smoothly compared to the archaic FSX. There is just one thing missing - a virtual copilot of some sort. As far as I’ve learned so far, there is nothing comparable with FS2Crew so far, apart from the awful Multi Crew Experience . Is there anything that comes close to the FS2Crew experience? Feeling like you have your teammate there? Even if not working through the speech recognition, perhaps there is something like an automated checklist for the co…

When I try to load the latest version of the Kodiak (1.5) in X-Plane 11.10, X-Plane simply crashes and then when I look in the log.txt, I get an error --=={This application has crashed because of the plugin: SASL}==-- Here is the complete log.txt : log.txt for X-Plane 11.10r3 (build 111014 64-bit) compiled on Dec 5 2017 11:31:47 X-Plane started on Thu Dec 21 17:17:43 2017 This log file is generated automatically by Laminar Research applications and contains diagnostics about your graphics hardware, installation, and any error conditions.

Did I dream this story that X-plane had a Default A-320 in work? Terry

The new E195 Evolution for XP11 by SSG is available at x-plane.org: I love their E170, but the „Evolution“ series (the features of the new E195 will be available as an update for the E170) seems to have many improvements, including the FMC!

Hello all, I am in the midst of yet another attempt to fly XP11 with multiple screens. I actually have 6 working (which is great) but, they are all exactly the same and all respond to yoke input or scrolls in exactly the same way. Can somebody show/tell/explain to me how to get different displays on each screen please. Also bear in mind that this is probably the very first of many questions to follow. Thanks in advance and Seasons Greetings Regards Tony Chilcott

The wait is over, and HD Mesh Scenery v4 for X-Plane 11 is now officially released! HD Mesh Scenery v4 can be seen as a vastly improved version of the default scenery shipping with XP11. It is using/referencing the exact same set of artwork files (textures, object, autogens, forests) which ship with XP11, so you do not need other art assets to be installed while HD Mesh Scenery v4 will also benefit from any artwork improvements (autogen, texture) coming with future XP11 versions. The most important advantages of HD Mesh Scenery v4 are The triangle mesh resolution is far higher than in the default mesh and even a bit above the level of the previous HD…

Hi all! Just a heads up, we've released our first X-Plane product; KIDA Idaho Falls: X-Plane Edition. It's also in the Christmas sale which ends December 31st. We're hoping this is the first of many more X-Plane projects to come! More info and screenshots can be found here: https://www.turbulentdesigns.co.uk/kida-idaho-falls-x-plane-edition-released/

Hi all, I'm sick of FSX and want a new 64 bit platform to build a new sim on. However I'm stuck between choosing X-plane 11 or P3D V4. What would you recommend and what sort of performance can I expect with the following specs (I know not to go max settings so I'm happy with medium settings): Intel Core i5 4690K Processor 3.50 GHz (Overclocked to up to 4.3GHz) NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1060 6GB Graphics Card 16 GB (2 x 8GB) DDR3 1600MHz RAM Seagate 1000GB SSHD Hybrid Drive Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit Assuming my sliders aren't maxed out and sitting in the middle, is it even worth buying X-Plane 11? Kind Regards Paul

Hi, I returned to x-plane 11 because of the beta version of the ff320u, which I love! I also like many features in x-plane and I am quite happy with the latest version, except for the popping and slow texture loading at night. And the see through clouds who are ruining IFR flying at night. Are there any solutions to get a more fluid texture loading at night? Jos

Caveat Emptor. Be aware that if you run X-Plane on networked PCs (e.g. Master PC plus Visuals PC) World Traffic v3 does not support networking. I missed that fact despite reading the product specifications and a number of reviews. This is NOT (I repeat NOT) a criticism of the product because it looks fantastic - it's just a shame that it is not able to fill the AI gap on my XP11 set-up. Should have listened to CJS's suggestion to try the free trial.

Hi, Today I decided to just update S-Plane to 11.11 (previously on 11.05), and now the game is not starting, it is stuck at the "init plugins" message at the beginning and there nothing else that can be done, the log.txt can not be of any help since the game is still trying to load, and I can not close it so it will not create a log.txt. What can I do to make it load properly BTW it has been trying to load for the past two (2) hours Thank you in advance

Some time ago I thought someone mentioned that a A-320 was in the works for X-Plane 11. Also was this going to be a default aircraft or payware? Thanks Terry

was released and looks awesome! https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipMc1FYDCUvIjb98BEpcxqU2zx8g632-jmhxWef37Nr0gdLOTzQRQP6aq9vcrY_Upw?key=SWlGbWxjZGZKeXdYZm42emZTOW5EM01SMElZM193
