The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

I am installing world2splane and the installer gives me a message saying it cannot find world-models library inside my xplane installation. I click the link that world2xplane gives me for world-models and the site is not there it just gives a 404 error. I can not find the library anywhere else. Help me please if you can! Thanks!

I am getting X plane 10 soon, and I am wondering is it possible to easily convert photoscenery from FSX to X plane 10? If its possible what program can I use?

It was a toss-up whether to post here or under the Carenado forum (which seems mostly FSX)...If I chose incorrectly, mods please move. I recently purchased the Carenado T210 for X-Plane, and it's a nice airplane....like it a lot. The issue I have is with my instrument scan. It has a fancy digital/analog altimeter in the normal spot in the 6-pack. These old eyes can't see the little digital pointer, and the digital 'meter' is not a very precise way to hold altitude. This is important to me as I will use it to practice my instrument scan and procedures for RW flying. It also has what I'll call a 'normal' altimeter (two pointers and a kollsman window) at the lowe…

Hey All, I wanted to extend my congrats to the X-Plane community that has seen alot of recent success in the addon space. The IXEG is a beautiful creation, we know the DC-6 is coming from PMDG which should be the first of many, and the rest of the ecosystem continues to grow. I personally dont use X-Plane, but have always admired some of its unique capabilities and qualities and have always wished that you all would have your addon space really mature and help move the platform forward. It appears to be the start of a road that will lead to a bright future and wish you all the best!

Hello as u may know there is numlock keys with assiciate default camera position for example num 4 as cockpit view, how can i change this default position permantely? thanks

Anybody using it? http://jardesign.org/x-life/www/ X-Life generates a realistic ground and air traffic, based on the principles of real-life aircraft movements. Each aircraft operated by the AI pilot. All aircraft are controlled by ATC. Algorithms of ground-routes building will avoid conflicts and based on data from apt.dat sceneries files.

Hi All I am trying to figure out the Proc File Format in order to Parse the data, so can anyone shed some light on this ?

Hey everyone, Just as a large proportion of the X-Plane community has, I purchased the IXEG 737 immediately upon release. Quite frankly, I am amazed at the level of fidelity that the developer team has achieved, from the sounds to the quality of texturing. I hardly need even mention the systems depth and accuracy. The plane even bounces a little when it halts to a stop, something I've never observed with any other payware aircraft. Now, my main question is - as a person who has solely flown the B777 (and not to mention various GA aeroplanes) in X-Plane, how do I begin to make sense of the 737 cockpit? For one, the overhead panels seem to be completely different. I…

​Trying to make a flight bewteen ESNQ - ESSA and I always get perf/vnav unavailable when trying to engange vnav. In the tutorial flight it worked but not now. I have filled in the perf init page. Don't know what Iam doing wrong =/

So I have got caught up in the ixeg 737 hype and finally bought xplane and a few addons. I have spent the last couple of days installing everything and doing some tweaking. The only part I have had issues with is installing w2xpl. Appreciate it is not officially supported or developed anymore (which is a massive shame) but with it in my scenery folder I can't load beyond reading new scenery files. I have osm with v3 mesh and that is working fine. Any ideas of a solution to the w2xpl issue so I can use that? Thanks

I'd like to populate my sim with some nice strips. I have Mountain Air - 2NCO, Marc's West Point (KFYJ,) and the excellent Spadaro 1N2. I want more! :smile: Thanks.

Hi, as I have recently upgraded my computer, and along with it I have a dedicated 500GB SSD for X-Plane, I went ahead and installed it from DVDs. So far I received errors on disc 2. Not sure if any more discs will have errors, I pm about finishing disc 5. Anyway, how do I re-check/repair any missing files after install is finished? i know there was a way but I cannot remember. Also, for anyone that has done it, is it possible to install the Steam version if you wanted it, but copying the files from a DVD install, to avoid downloading so many GBs? Thanks.

I have a 2014 5k iMac, and have been considering upgrading to El Capitan (runs on Yosemite now). I see reference to performance increases with the later OS, but how does that work with XP? Any comments most welcome, thanks, Bruce.

Hi all, I have a question.I have just got XP10 yesterday. I dowloaded XPUIPC but I have a slight problem. I want to assign buttons and joystick axises but I can't find the XPUIPC menu to do it. Doesn't XPUIPC have a menu in the sim like FSUIPC to assign these? Many thanks in advance... Best, Omer

Where can I download this from?

I concur with a few others, flying with the latest version...I have been creeping up the 4 cloud rendering sliders on a flight this morning between KTOL and KMYR, ...and at mid-point on the slider bars, with this new version I was easily maintaining my locked 30 FPS. Very fast cloud updates, etc...very happy with the new performance...but, I am now at full right on the four sliders bars...totally maxed out rendering...and yet still can pull a steady 25 FPS! This is quite amazing!!!! Here is a pic enroute with the cloud sliders all now max'ed. I can absolutely live with a mean average FPS rendering of 25 FPS...with output like this...multiple layers, very fast clou…

Hi. Is there a way to smooth out the double-right click mouse-look function? It is quite jerky and i find the P3D mouse look to be a lot smoother. Thanks

... without any add-on scenery :-) I made a cleanup of my "Custom Scenery" folder. Also reverted to default weather, NOAA plugin injcetion, wjile I await whatever news 10.50 brings, and getting ready to run more complex aircraft like the SaaB 340. I don't mind if Lisbon looks like a .... well, ... not even describing how it looks like... and would rather use only photo scenery is my sim dis wasn't ( strategically ) limited to 250 GB.... But it's smooth like never before! I believe 10.50 will probably bering more art assets, additional airports, maybe new cloud rendering ( ? ), so, for the time being, smoothness is the option for me, and for someone ac…

Here's what's changed in version 3.1.2: What's New / Changed: Fix synchronization of clouds on multi-PC setups Edges of cloud formations have more natural shapes with Real Weather Connector Cumulus clouds are brighter Cirrus clouds no longer reduce visibility when flying through them with Real Weather Connector

It's not running out of memory. I checked that. Usually I can get in the air and within 5 minutes, it CTDs. Is there some kind of log file I can look at that would provide hints?

Please if someone could report about frames on this new plane, is it better than the Cirrus or about the same? Thanks!

Coming "Very" Soon :smile: !!

Hi, Just looking at WED and I'm trying to figure how if satellite imagery can be used as a reference (but not necessarily a ground texture)? I am not sure what this is actually called in XP (if it's possible) so I'm not sure what to search for, but haven't found it yet. thanks Andrew

Have to say I can't wait :smile: https://www.facebook.com/pmdgsimulations/videos/1105419569497826/?permPage=1
