Hi guys, Informing that the Truscenery has released a new version of Tampere-Pirkkala Airport v1.2. Full change log v1.2 Better shades for orthophotos. Orthophoto cars deleted. More DDS format textures. Includes the latest Ground Traffic pluking v1.3 Improved the Finland trees New models for Weather Stations and sensors. Added stand location sign for stand B1 Added OH-XRT (Selfmade Aircraft) street painting. A few bugs fixed. More rampstarts for General Aviation Airport fences adjusted to better match reality http://www.truscenery.com/index.php/9-x-plane-articles/29-tampere-pirkkala-airport-1-2-released

I have my elevator trim set to a rocker switch on my yoke and the rudder and aileron trims set to an axis knob. In most aircraft I fly, I find their rates to be hyper-sensitive does anyone know a plug in or a method of reducing their effectiveness?

What do the XP10 users think of this product? Is it any good? Most of my XP-related flying is in the urban area of SOCAL while on Pilot Edge. 7.95 seems rather inexpensive too.

Hi, I just downloaded the new "Sabach Cloud & Environment" freeware add-on. It replaces default clouds and sky textures. I think it improves significantly the look of the weather, especially clouds. There's no impact on FPS, on the contrary it seem to be even a little better. You can donwload it here: http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?app=downloads&showfile=19462 A couple of screenshots so you can see what to expect:

Wee bit of trouble here, I can find some wire mesh fences but I would like a farm type fence. Wooden posts with 4 or 5 wire strands between. Is there any available for Wed ?? where are they hidden ?? I see fence facades but do not understand that. Needed to finish my 1st airport alteration. Any help appreciated.

When I saw the latest ( GOOD ) news about Aerowinx PSX developments it immediately came to my mind a personal experience I had when I was using both Aerowinx PS1 and Airline Simulator 2. Hardy Heinlin, and Simon Hradecky are fully dedicated to accuracy, and try their best to achieve the ultimate realism for their simulations. By the time I was mainly using PS1 I was offered the chance to try the Airbus simulators here at TAP's headquarters... I trained for a night in my PSS and Wilco buses before the LevelD simulator session, because I had been only PS1-ing, and had forgotten about most of Airbus specifics, but my hands were accustomed to the kind of inputs requir…

I've had my new system built for a little over two weeks now and I use to find myself spending about 70% of my time in FSX and 30% in XP10. The tables have turned a bit and I am now finding myself spending about 60% of my time in XP and a shrinking 40% in FSX. If it were not for the thousands of dollars spent on add-on's over the past six years I'm sure it would be much less. My new Haswell build clocked at 4.5ghz 16GB 2400hz ram paired with a Nvidia 3GB 780GTX has me cranking up the settings and really enjoying the sim. Being able to set options like shadow details to "Melt my GPU" 60% clouds, Too Many Objects, and still hold 25-30 fps in dense scenery makes for an…

Hello all, I've been slowly working my way into getting comfortable using WED, however I cannot figure this out. When creating a simple taxiway rectangle between two surfaces like runways or ramps and lighting the edges, I always have lights strung across both ends, not just the edges like I want. What simple step am I overlooking? Thank you, Tom

Are any of you able to enter accelerated stalls in X-Plane10? Any stall as a mater of fact as you can read ahead... Probably the most correct behavior I have found so far was that of the MU2, and the author even programmed a nice "shake" effect in the pre-stall region, but guys, pick your preferred GA aircraft, go high enough and start a steep descent. Then, pull your yoke/manche/whatever, and try to enter an accelerated stall.... Can you? You'll probably perform a loop, but entering the supposed accelerated stall will be almost impossible! Sometimes it reminds me of some of the MS FLIGHT aircraft, probably all but the Stearman, Maule and the Carbon Cub... All other are…

I realise this subject may have been raised before, but im still having problems (being very new to XPlane 10) I bought the Carenado CT210, but despite my sticks being properly calibrated, it banks to the left so bad its unflyable. Even idling on the ground, as soon as i release the brakes, it turns. If i turn on the autpilot, you can see the ailerons are full, trying to compensate for the banking. Something to do with torque, apparently. Duel engined planes dont have the problem, am i right?

now my xsaitek panels don't work anymore, 'G' key to lower/raise gear doesn't do anything, many other keys also inactive, RADIO and all electrical instruments don't work anymore on my Carenado C172 and F33. I do hear ATC radio though. no more gear up/down animation in spot view, though I can activate gear with mouse button. I assume it has to do with only the electrical system malfunctioning. all instruments that are electrically driven are blank or inop, the others like compass and airspeed and V/S indicator do work. I already restored my complete PREFERENCES folder from my previous backup but no avail. I had the same problem with 10.22 beta and successfully restored fro…

HI with my new pc I'm ready to use my x-plane 9 g2xpl sceneries. But after copying all to xp10 they are not loaded. What could I be doing wrong? the last line in scenery_packs.ini: SCENERY_PACK Custom Scenery/z_g2xpl-overlay/ Thanks

http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/69562-new-airports-for-x-plane-10/ "we don't stop the developement for X-Plane 10. But a good Quality takes time... I think the next airport will be in GB. May be London..... And we are working on two projects für X-Plane 10. Ich will post details if i get pictures.... At the moment it is just to early." Quote by Aerosoft's Heinz Flichtbeil also "London Heathrow and and later we are planing Dublin. And we are working on Landmarks for X-Plane 10. And......"

finally it works 100% stable on my PC. This week has been awesome in XP10 with new updated releases of the 777 and A320neo. :yahoo: :clapping: :drinks: :Love: http://airbus320neo.com/updates/

Really enjoying XP10 with my latest hardware build and had a very satisfying flight from KDFW. Shadows were casting around the cockpit at the "melt your GPU' level and my 780GTX was taking it all in stride, that is until I broke through the cloud deck above Little Rock, Arkansas. I was trying to get into the position for approach to 22R but got confused as I looked for the river; where the heck is it? I must have made an error in my judgment because that can't possibly be the Clinton International Airport even though it looks like the correct shape and orientation...the Arkansas river is missing! Holy Global Warming Batman it's true after landing and checking the we…

Hi all, Just moved from Prepar3D to X-Plane 10 and enjoying the ride immensely. No stuttering, steady 30 fps at any circumstance and location, everything is fine and dandy and then... of course, I want more. Though the simming experience has exceeded my wildest dreams I was wondering if I could get some more objects to my screen through GPU upgrade. My current rig is: Asus z77 Sabretooth i7 3770K @ 4,6 Mhz 8 GB RAM GTX 570 Win 8 64 bit Everthing on SSD My current rendering settings can be seen in the attachment. With these settings and with OSM Europe + OSM Finland (both osm only, no osm autogen) and UrbanMaxx2 installed, I get the aformentioned 30 fps (…
