The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

I have been testing the results of the torque fix in X-Plane 10. Installed a "thin" copy of XP10 latest beta on an external SSD disk, with minimal scenery and just FSGRW weather injcetor, and tested the default C172 and a few other, by opening them on Plane Maker and then saving. Asked LES to reactivate my downloads for what I still consider to be the best prop aircraft ( together with the Fellis IL-14 ) for X-Plane 10 - the remarkable LES DC-3, LES Mitsubishi MU-2J, and LES Cessna Corvalis C400 which had long been expired because I haven't been using X-Plane 10 for quite a while... BTW, as usual their ticket-based support worked fast and effective and I had the links…

Hello I've created a couple of starter videos for the Flight Factor 767. The first covers take-off, the second covers full auto-landing. The videos are based on a short trip from Gatwick to Amsterdam. Take-off: Landing:

I've not seen any reviews on this Scenery add-on (mesh). Anyone bought it and willing to share his/hers experience? http://hsimulators.blogspot.is/

Just got the Flight Factor Airbus 350. I can take off and fly manually but clicking on heading button, altitude button, vertical speed button does absolutely nothing. Have tried to find spots around these that work but nothing. Sometimes get a flat line but it does nothing. So far this has been the most frustrating add on that I have purchased. Could be I got a bad download or an x-plane update that is making it unusable? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks, Richard

I already have FSX (FSX-SE) and P3D2. I also use Orbx scenery and have MSE photo scenery and a lot of ad on planes like A2A and the PMDG 737NGX. In what way could XP enhance my flight simming experience in this case ? My question should not be taken as which sim is best but rather what are the strong points in each sim (with available addons). For example I was unable to find a good Piper Archer III (which I flew in a trial flying lesson) in FSX. Maybe I could find something better in FSX ? Or maybe the scenery in XP could be better where I live (north of Gothenburgh) compared to FSX. So I'm thinking about answers like XP + these addon offers something better than what F…

At the .org Store, I keep getting the error: Error processing request 500 - [object Object] Tried several different credit cards with the same error, and tried to purchase several different XP products. I tried googling this error but don't get anything meaningful to me in response. Maybe just an overload in store activity today? Thanks, Bruce.

I'm looking for XP scenery for the above (title). I've found Manhatten photo-scenery at the .org but it says that it was updated in 2009, so it's a bit dated. I assume this does not include the NYC airports. Can anyone comment? Also on frame-rates? Then there's the 6 NYC airports in one scenery pack, then again there's a seperate XP scenery product just for KLGA. Can anyone comment on any experiences with either of these? Ideally I would like KLGA and Manhatten, but I think the airports don't contain the Manhatten scenery and vice-versa. Thanks for any info. Bruce.

Well my X plane package arrived today, nearly two weeks ahead of schedule! I would like to introduce myself. My name is Lamar Wright and have been flying sims for a long time ( FS9, FSX, and P3DV2.5. This is my first venture with X plane 10. Looking forward to learn all I can and I am sure I'll need lots of help from the this community. I know there is no perfect flight sim however, each sim has their +'s and --'s. I have P3D on my hard drive now and soon will have X plane on a dedicated 250 GB SSD. My copy of X plane is global 64 bit. Will start loading x plane soon. Just wondering since I just fly mainly Canada and USA should I just load those sections only or the…

Hi all, I have no idea what to do with my entries. The more I read the more I change it around. Here are my entries below. Could you help me order this?

Looks like this is out, I am just downloading it now......Lets see, maybe GOOD AI for x-plane 10 at last?

I'm still finding my way around X-Plane after 20 years FSX, and now Prepar3D. I want to utilize my computers full 64bit i7-4790K capability. I was hoping someone could recommend some freeware aircraft that I could use to start me off. I should mention that I'm big on VC panels with plenty of detail and visuals. 'Cartoony' type textures is a real no no. I use the 737NGX, AS A320 and Majestic Q400. I have the following categories in mind. twin turboprop airliner, twin jet airliner and single retractable GA to help me in my adaption, with the view of later purchasing the 'high end' airliners. Can some dedicated X-Plane purists offer my some aircraft as outlined please. …

I'm going to ask Austin to include an option to set all aircraft weights lenghts, etc... using the Metric system as an option. Everytime I want to fill my aircraft using the built in Aircraft Fuel & Loading menu, I have to convert my KGs to LBs, and .... that's sometimes a mess... :-/

Wishing all members here a happy christmas and a great new year. Here's hoping santa brings us the IXEG 737 under the tree for Christmas, but also looking forward to 2016 which should be an interesting year (Maybe we'll see some hints of XP11,AeroFlyFS 2 and Dovetail's rumoured new flight-sim).

If users of XP10 today have good reasons to be happy, it is in good part thanks to your Work and Dedication! Thank You Murmur!

Purchased the flight factor 767 today and I must admit I am a little disappointed as this plane is full of bugs. It seems they decided to rush release this product for Christmas despite the bugs. that or they have the worst beta teams. During my first flight I hit three bugs. 1. In the FMC if I skip a leg it does not draw a new path to the next selected way point. 2. The Auto throttle switch will not engage 3. The plane does not track along the route line on the PFD. it shows that i am about 5nm to the left This plane should not have been released yet!

Laminar has released XP 10.45 beta 1. Changelog (http://www.x-plane.com/?article=x-plane-10-45-release-notes) Features for Beta 1: Updated nav data from Robin Vertical offset ratio available for external visuals The “demo expired” popup now gives much more relevant advice. We look at what DRM sources you’ve unlocked from in the past (DVD, XDD, or USB stick) and tailor the “unlock the full version” message based on that. Fixed for Beta 1: C400 and C172 use new torque fix AGBs: Random spelling choice caused the shortest spelling to be picked, leaving blocks mostly empty Neighbor-tile clip had wrong expression, causing trees to leak out much better diagnostics and …

Hello, I´m new to X-Plane. Can you suggest a nice freeware weather generator program for X-Plane? Thank you.

Hi, just wanted to get this of my chest. I am done with X-Plane 10 as long as there is no solution for the shimmering, especial regarding the buildings. Cheers Frank

Hello Everyone, I'm thinking about moving to X-Plane. Have been flying with P3D for quite some time now, nowadays I also almost always fly on VATSIM. I have a few questions that I would love to get your view on: 1. What are the payware add-ons you would recommend getting (graphic's and quality of life etc) ? 2. Are there any nice payware Boeing planes available in comparable quality to the PMDG's products ? 3. Is there any ORBX equivalent one can get ? 4. Is there a nice weather engine that you would recommend getting ? 5. For people who tried both XP and P3D what made you stick with X-Plane in the end ? 6. As for VATSIM are the client applications for X…

This forum is JUMPING!

...dunno....but hey...never to late to the party... ...but actually called Plan-G -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

There are many things I like about X-Plane, but one thing that gets my goat in 10.42 is the massive grey wall in the near distance whenever weather visibilty is limited. It's just awful, and even in clear skies the wall moves further away but is still there. I'm could swear we had better depiction in previous iterations where the limit of visibility was more natural, fading out more gradually to the horizon (not related to extended DSRs, I'm talking about the sky not the ground). The question is, what has changed? Did something get broken?
