The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

I'm sure there is a readme somewhere... but I plugged in one of my own Duluth sceneries and I've ended up with a lot of blah boring plain textured buildings. Somehow the fuel farm, beacon, and tower showed up. Am I wrong in presuming Open Scenery X would plug in its own rendition of these buildings? Or, how do I get something with a little more substance from this conversion? My FSX rendition is all FSX library objects. I did have custom photo scenery for the aerial but I don't need that in XP10 I guess.

:Party: :yahoo:

Who's using RXP for XP10? Do the 530W/430W gauges work in x64? What about x86? Can you update the database with the worldwide.bin like in FSX? Are there any planes with native "3d VC" integration like in FSX?

I'm thinking of moving to Xplane from FSX. What are the equivalent add-ons for the PMDG 747/737, AS2012, GSX and ProATCX?

I use plan-g for flight planing and also as a moving map both operating on the same pc with 2 monitors attached. It has worked fine till I got the new beta today, I re-installed plan-g and the plug in ... no go. anyone had this trouble or can tell me what I may have overlooked? Thanks, Scot

Hello, I noticed several users are using three monitors with X-Plane 10. Does it create a panning view with the right aspect ratio? FSX gives a fish eye view that distort the view so much it looks ridiculous. Does XP10 have that problem? Also how does the three monitors solution perform? Do you have smooth rendering given good hw like GTX 680? I tried searching the forum but nothing specific came up. Thanks in advance.

Since I'm still a newb with XP can someone tell me if the craziness of this video means the plane is not x64 compatible? This is an otherwise neat aerobatic plane I found online... Additionally, why are my planes so jittery during flight? Here's a rear camera of the stock Baron. I'm doing about 120 kias with real world wx. I didn't see any airmets for turbulence in the area...

I don't have it yet, since I'm at work, but it's available now. Looks nice! Rob

But, if in an OpenGL-based, multi-platform flightsim like FG this is possible, and much more to show now with the new 2.10 release, Rembrandt, etc, then X-Plane10 should be able to do even better :-/ I have lighting effects that are way better than those we get sometimes with XP10. I get a very credible Sun reflection in the waters, clouds (that move!!!) and come in many flavors, precise dawn/day/dusk/night lighting, depending on day of year and location on Earth, plus exact Moon and stars (many) phase/positions, real world weather that in a day like yesterday, with huge TCus and Cbs around LPPT were properly depicted... Ah... and seasonal textures now too with the pr…

Fellow simmers, Any other visitors to X-Pilot.Com finding their site/forum unresponsive yesterday through today? I'm pretty sure their site is down hard, but want to validate.... -Greg

FYI... X-Plane on Android future does not look good. http://www.avweb.com/podcast/podcast/AudioPodcast_AustinMeyer_XPlane_InnovationsLawsuits_208210-1.html?kw=self -Ray

It's been awhile since I've used X-Plane. Been so use to EZDok Cam on FSX. But how do you set your default view and have it saved for the virtual cockpit? I'd like to do this for the 777 Worldliner as it opens up way to close with the view aimed towards the rudders. I'd like to adjust the view and have it higher and face out the window.

UPDATE! :yahoo:

the "rc" on my copy is gone after I updated Xplane10 today :unsure:

A dream come true (albeit in a limited service area) so hold on before you get crazy... yes, the service area is limited in scope to southern California USA so it's not IVAO and it's not VATSIM. On the other hand, here's what you --do-- get (thus far, YMMV) CRYSTAL CLEAR VHF COMS across ALL the frequencies for your entire flight while in the coverage area. Controllers are "ON DUTY" and available 7 days a week, 8am to 11pm (Pacific). This is HUGE. How many times have you got on VATSIM or IVAO only to find NO CONTROLLERS anywhere near your intended flight route? Many times I was forced to fly in a completely different area just to have real-world ATC Works wit…

Hi guys, Having decided to take a look at making scerery for X plane 10, just to flesh out the odd airport, I'm finding that it's kind of addictive. So a little glance has resulted in me starting a project to fill out all the airports in Japan. I'm having a problem though with two airfields that lack the local road detail found in mainland Japan. So the question is, how doi add roads to areas devoid of osm data. I have thought of using WED's taxiway editor to create the road surface, but to isn't idea. So any ideas would be appriciated. Best wishes, Jess B

Presently I have no OSM scenery installed. As a matter of fact OSM is not even installed yet. I kind of like the new autogen for most cities, but I remember the OSM version I had for Lisbon was very nice. Question is : If I re-install OSM, how will both coexist?

http://secure.simmar...-plane-10.phtml Released Today, it looks ok but I will wait for Reviews.

I setup xp10 on my kid's computer which is only 14months old: Dell XPS 8300, 3.4ghz, 8gb ram, ATI 6870 1gb, 500gb HD and with FXAA HDR, High Textures, High View Distance, Traffic Siberia, Trees Max, Objects Max, Airports Max, Clouds 100% at 1920x1080 I get over 30fps with payware aircraft. Bravo Devs :drinks: btw I'm using the new 13.2 beta AMD drivers. Over large cities, it never goes below 20fps, pretty good for an old video card.

any news on how long it will take to release the 64bit version of the A321 and A380. With the release of the 777 64bit and A320neo 64bit beta last week I put my purchase on hold for the Peter's planes because 64bit is so much better on my system. I will buy the Peters A321 and A380 once it's released for 64bit. Do you have any ETA on the release day? thank you. Reply Forward A 64-bit test version of the A380 will be published within a few days. After successful termination we will turn to the A321 plugins. Kind regards / Freundliche Grüße Peter pete…

In my Nvidia Inspecto X-Plane profile I see the following entries: Antialiasing Mode: --- 1)Application controlled --- 2)Override any application settings --- 3)Enhance the application setting I chose 3) Antialiasing Setting: --- Many otions, from App controlled, 2x, 2xQ, 4x, 8x (CSAA), ... I chose 4x Antialiasing Transparency Mode: -- Enable or Disable I chose Enable Antialiasing Transparency Supersampling: --- Off=Multisampling, Supersampling, 2x SS, 4x SS... I Chose Supersampling Question, In the XP10 rendering options, what goes with my choices for Inspector? If I use HDR, I set it's antialiasing to 2xSSAA+FXAA and An…

Sorry for so many questions on the same day :-) but I really forgot about some aspects of X-Plane installation / optimization... Now, this one has to do with having, or not having to, move the GIZMO folder out of it's place whenever I want to use an airplane that uses SASL. I have two CArenados, B58 and Seneca, and they both use SASL. Now, I also have my preferred XP10 model - LES dc3 - which uses GIZMO. I believe I read sometime in the past that the latest 32 bit versions of X-Plane10 solved the incompatibility between this two plugins (?) Can someone confirm please? Do I still have to move the GIZMO folder away from the resources\plugins folder before star…
