The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

In my FSX cockpit I use TrackIR. The TrackIR is controlled by EZCA, which lets me move the home eyepoint position up and down (or back and forward, left and right). I have this mapped to a rotary encoder on the panel so effectively I can move the seat height up and down smoothly by turning the knob. I am wondering how to do this in XP-11, or if it's possible. The X-Plane up/down/left/right commands work if I disable TrackIR but have no effect if I have it enabled. This is the same behaviour as FSX. I have seen a thing called X-Camera that looks a bit like EZCA. Does anyone know if that does what I need? Thanks.

Hi all, I inform you that our Antarctica4XPlane project team has begun to produce meshes of parts of Antarctica for both X-Plane 10 and 11. You will find all the informations about it on our site: Our web site or starting from a summary table that I realized from which you can reach the information sheets of about 40 airports and more than 130 research Bases, a part already deployed, as well as a mapping on the continent realized with QGIS Cloud, which you will find here: Summary table Cheers Nino Screenshot on Dry Walleys QGIS Cloud map

I had a few newer airports that I have installed over the last week or so...KSMF, KMIA v6.2,KTVL, YCFS, etc... ....and even though I had every library 'out there' needed by them, already installed,....I had quite a few 'there were problems loading this airport, it may not look right'... yeah, you know the one.. Well...it very quickly donned on me, that there were probably new elements (updates) to all the library packages that some of the newer scenery was looking for...and was not in my present installation of such.... ...spent two hours totally updating every library on the .org, with the result that all my airports, old as well as new (uploaded to the .org …

Looks like the aerosoft dfw is finally out looks great haven't tried it yet will soon. avsim opps didn't see the previous lol post u can delete this topic lol I never check the add-on section of the forum. http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/112710-announcing-dallasfort-worth-intl-kdfw/#comment-813176 http://www.aerosoft.com/

Does anyone know if there will be an avionics upgrade or making what's already there more functional for the stock cirrus sf50 vision?

Everyone knows the old adage, "Old dogs, can't learn new tricks" Right.... But, if 'Old Dogs' can, and are willing to reach beyond their comfort zone, or merely, "it's good enough for me...", then great things can happen. My story; (typed by an Old Dog)... I have an i7-975 Extreme CPU, (4 physical cores), and have always felt (8 cores) simulated in HyperThread Mode would HAVE to be better than my true four physical cores. With this entrenched belief, I, since purchasing my system in 2009, have never turned off H.T. A few days ago, on the advice of another long-time forum member, I finally decided that this Old Dog, should 'try out' a new trick, eve…

Hi, Still learning how to use X-Plane 11(from FSX) and have somehow made my default scenery and custom scenery a dogs breakfast, it's everywhere and not showing airports correctly - I have managed to get them in the right order thanks to Youtube, the trouble is that while trying to learn how to use XP10 I had installed custom scenery, changed global airports etc. When I installed XP11 I just transferred all of my XP10 files over. I have just learned that HD Global scenery 3 is not compatible with XP11. I would like to reset XP11 back to default and start with scenery again. I have the download version of XP11( a very big download). How do I do this? steve

http://store-x-plane-org.3dcartstores.com/Bell-407-XP11_p_620.html And does anyone have v10 and does it at least have the option to use the default GNS430 or 530? It's an amazing helo from the looks of it but I don't see an option for GNS integration... I'd like to have that for my online flying.

Oh my, a little bit overwhelming. I am trying to do an ILS into KSEA . Nav1 tuned properly. I select Autopilot and then tried the Nav button then Nav & approach buttons but no glideslope. Altitude button was off. Sometimes it has a downward approach but not at all near the threshold. What am I doing wrong? Bob

I seemed to have lost my tall radio antenna tower objects. Or they might be just a lot smaller. They are the kind that have all red flashing lights on them. Is it possible another library has overridden those models? I've got World-models, Handy Objects, ruscenery, MisterX, OSX, R2, flagsof usa states, FF library, CDB. Anyone use any of these and notice their obstruction towers have changed?

What a great time to fly in X-Plane. Hello everyone. Following the recent trend of ultra-high quality add-ons for X-Plane 10, I am excited to announce my new project—the Dallas/Fort Worth International Airport (KDFW) scenery. Although the scenery is currently a work in progress, you can check out the completed Terminal D in 1080p in this video: Sprawled across 18,076 acres of land—an area larger than the island of Manhattan—DFW is the world's third largest airport. With 681,244 aircraft movements in 2015, it is also the world's third busiest airport. 7 runways, 5 terminals, 165 gates and 3 control towers help accomodate the 1,845 daily flights. DFW is…

Can anyone help me with why my LUA is not working? "Attempt to compare number with nilon local number...." Here's my log: https://www.dropbox.com/s/3awwiqafa4s19b4/LogRB.txt?dl=0

So I'm going to get 11. Should I just buy the digital download or get it on Steam. Never used Steam before. Is it more convienent. ? can I install 11 on to its own drive with steam. I'm sure I will have many questions going forward. But this is to just get me started. ☺

What exactly do these elusive max settings do? Like many other Commodore64 users I used to dream about being able to afford the sort of IBM Deep Blue needed to run Bruce Artwick and Stu Moments' amazing creation at max settings. As the sim evolved over the years I always found that my [very latest] hardware was never quite good enough to run the [very latest] version of the sim of my dreams at max settings and, when the Flight Simulator franchise was finally controlled by Microsoft, I had visions of programmers smug in the knowledge that they had several 'Deep Blues' in SLI with which to replay their creations in butter-smooth scenarios that the Plebs could neve…

Any opinions on the AeroSphere Pipers?

I currently have the i5 4670k, 16gb ram, and gtx 1070 and at 1080p resolution 144hz. I would like to switch to xplane 11. Can I expect nice smooth flying with reasonable settings? If I would like to be even more "right heavy" on the graphics settings what would I need to upgrade the most? Really appreciate the help.

Hey guys, so I have been using XP11 for a good 3 weeks now and feel like I am slowly getting everything dialed in. One thing however I am still unable to achieve, I've asked around many places online and am so surprised that no answer has been given. Where can I find the X-Plane version or similar utility of FSUIPC? I want to control my joystick axis' through it and set my own null zone and slope. So far all I have been directed to was X-Assign and XPUIC. Neither do what I want or maybe I missed setting it up somehow? Any help?

As I know some vFlyteAir customers are in this forum, but not necessarily always read our official forum at x-plane.org, I'd like to share two support news here: 1. We have released a free PBR patch kit for our Cherokee 140 (all three versions), so if you're using our Cherokees in X-Plane 11, you can have nice fuselage reflections now. We consider these textures "beta" and we cannot guarantee they will still work in the final version of X-Plane 11. The update also includes preview icons of the different liveries: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/113492-free-x-plane-11-patch-kit-for-reflections-released-beta/ 2. Users of the "glass" version of t…

Hi Been reading a fair bit about this and it all seems very impressive! From what I understand Ortho4XP is a base set of mesh/texture that we can then add autogen 'on top of' hope this is the cotterct interpretation? Would anyone have any links to any ready made Ortho' in particular UK/Europe that could be shared/donated before I go and start creating my own? Many thanks :)

I've gone totally nuts creating a huge collection of truly gorgeous Ortho4XP tiles that combined with all of XP11s other great features have made me more or less forget about P3D+Orbx (unless P3D v.4 is fantastic). My problem is that when first loading tiles and overlays (when the plane first appears on the runway) or "between" tiles there is a long period of struggle where the smooth 30 FPS comes to a stop and things get VERY jerky - but once loaded, I can fly wherever I want within the tile boundary with no FPS issues whatsoever. Sometimes during this initial loading process XP11 actually crashes. During this loading period, the hard drive (a normal hard driv…

What is this circle in the upper right hand corner of my chase plane view? How do I get rid of it? 2017-04-25 @ 15.25.12 PM by Jack Bailey

Nimbus just released their new KMCO-Orlando on the X-Plane.org store and I have to say it looks absolutely stunning. I'll be picking up a copy tomorrow and doing a full video overview music video for it just as I did for MisterX's KSLC. Can't wait! More airports of these quality please! Keep 'em coming!

I recently installed Mister X airports and Drzewiecki NYC airports only to find out that X-Plane's own AI traffic (which is has great perf. since XP11) will avoid them - they won't spawn at gates (even if there are free gates) nor land at them. Pretty much rendering these airports useless for now (unless you like dead airports). On top of that, X-Plane's static AC won't spawn at Drzewiecki NYC airports - meaning they will remain completely empty. I doubt anything can be done about this? What a waste...

I haven't been able to log in within EFASS, tried their website page but I get a "Web site currently not available" Anybody know what is going on?
