Running xp11 in full screen mode at the moment, but for some reason when i go to settings i cant see the full area under monitor to change to windowed mode? Has anyone ran into this and knows of a fix? Thanks in advance

Hi all. Just an update that i got my x-aviation license back but had to do a clean install of windows for that. Extreme, but i had all my games stored on non boot drives so I just had to verify them through their respective store apps. Just have to install some apps that's all. All in all not very painful. And no thanks to x-aviation. No help from their side. happy to be able to fly the TBM again. Looking into buying their SR22. Happy flying.

Hello, I have been using Ortho4XP for a while now, and while it's great and free I am looking at how I can improve the coastline blending, as quite often I find that the default coastline seems to come through the Ortho scenery. Please see screenshots attached. - The area is Isle of Man, tile +54-005 using Google Maps (GO2) Zoom Level 14 These are my settings:

Does the Hot Start TBM 900 have the ADF implemented and works?. I am looking for a G1000's aircraft to practice mi IR skills but I didn't find anyone with a working ADF in X-plane yet.

I recently bought the Carenado B200 #1 is the avidyn screen suppose to display weather and traffic? I turn them on via the doctors and don't see anything. Terrain says Not Available. #2 Does the King/Bendix unit suppose to display weather? I get nothing in that display? #3 What is the Sasl server in the plug-in menu for? Thanks in advance

FYI...

ToLiss A321 + BSS Soundpack. During normal flight, sound is perfect but when using replay and during taxi/takeoff/landing, there is a very bad sound - like there's a failing connection/glitch between my headphones and the computer. But only on the ground so I am guessing it is the rolling effect or something. Anyone else noticed this or have any ideas how to fix it? Very annoying during replay.

Can't seem to get to the store any longer. http://store.x-plane.org/

Been thinking abut buying the Inibuidls A300 but because I like to study manuals I'd like to ask if somebody could tell with what kind of documentation the plane is beeing shipped. Considering the steep pricetag I'm hoping for comprehensive PMDG-like manuals.

FPL is possible and no FMS . Is it difficult for the designers to arrange?

Anyone purchased this product? Is it noticeable? Any performance impact? Is it really just a straight up replacement or does it enhances the airport in any other way?

Hi All, So after simming on P3D for a few years, I finally bit the bullet on XP-11 and downloaded it today... Been playing around with the demo, and am loving it... Definitly cheaper than buying a super computer to run P3DV5 without crashing... I love the huge repository of free addons... I have a question, included in the download are some Aerosoft Airports, EGLL, EDDF and so on... How do these differ with the payware Aerosoft equivalent, or has LR struck up a deal with Aerosoft... Look forward to being an active member of this family... Faisal

Just a heads-up, it was already mentioned in another thread: Beta 11.51 is released: https://developer.x-plane.com/2020/11/stuff-we-are-working-on/ Release notes are here: https://www.x-plane.com/kb/x-plane-11-51-release-notes/ Note that you must manually run your installer (to be found in your main X-Plane folder) and check the "Check for betas" box as well. This beta does not really introduce anything new, it is a pure bugfix, aimed mostly at stomping out the remaining lingering "Device loss" crashes. As with all betas: Install at your own risk. If you want to go back to stable, just uncheck the "Check for betas" box and run the installer a…

I have to admit that looking at the latest x-plane topics regarding some of the next features got a bit cringy.. as we all know laminar has a opened a new feedback site in which you vote for your most wanted features, and they actually response. I thought of instead some of the folks or possible trolls fight on pc maybe we could just discuss some of what we want and maybe also open those discussions on the feedback site, however it's worth talking about here also. currently looking at the most wanted is lightning, weather, clouds, procedural terrain and more. I thought of being a bit more specific, what about ray tracing? Although I am no coder I …

Thranda releases the Beaver. Available at the Xplane store.

Hey guys, wondering if you have any insight on this: Generally I'm getting fps around the mid-40's, sometimes higher, but occasionally I'll encounter instances where I'll notice a slight freeze that lasts for a second or so. When this happens, I notice my frame rate drops down to about 10 or so, then immediately shoots back up. Troubleshooting, I've noticed the following: It always happens over the same general area. It might occur once every couple minutes, then stops when I leave that area. It happens regardless of settings. For example, I'll lower textures, reflections, etc. no difference. I can remove my Lua scripts (only have about 4), no d…

Well, it seems as if there is no section in these forums for aircraft development so I thought I might as well post it here :). This thread is dedicated to the development of the L1011 Tristar Series Aircraft. These aircraft (Yes, there will be multiple variants) have been under development for the last 7 months and are almost done being modeled. The aircraft will be sold as payware products and will be highly detailed. Any questions, concerns, or comments regarding the project can be directed to myself here in this thread, but preferably in my new discord which can be found HERE . Cheers! Zeke BlackCat Simulations P.S. I will leave you with the…

As the title suggests the 747 Model is 6 Inches above runway when taxing or when just sitting on the runway, does anyone know how to adjust the model height ?

Could it be they are getting ready to announce XP12?

Hi Everyone Having installed the Zibo 737 on a brand new system with a fresh installation of XPlane 11 and Windows 10 there are issues with the flightdeck dials not working or being in inoperable .... Does anyone have any ideas on fixing this or experienced the same problem ? Thanks in advance Paul

The Vulkan patch has failed to turbo charge performance and bring acceptable FPS to long waiting XP simmers, particularly so for Nvidia users, and on top of that, introduces some nasty new bugs such as stuttering when panning or changing views, plus a bunch of others! Fortunately addon dev "flaming floyd" has created LFD's Auto View Distance 1.8 which seems to work well without any other LOD tweaks or scripts. What I do is permanently set XP World Objects at max then in the settings for the addon, set Max View Distance at Max and then modify the Minimum View Distance to get at least the target FPS of about 35 or so. This will mean if you are approaching Heathr…

Having just acquired two of the new Thrustmaster TCA Throttle Quadrants, I am totally perplexed on how to set up the throttle and prop response curves in XP11 for turboprop aircraft. Setting them up for piston aircraft is easy since they don't have prop reversing, beta, and feathering. When I go into the Response Curves sections, I can't seem to figure out how to set the parameters. Since these throttles have thrust reverser levers, I would like to use them. Using the default settings (with the "this controller has reverse detents" box checked), the throttle in the aircraft does not seem to work correctly when I pull them all the way into reverse. Clicking on the graphs s…

Is any one using ORBX True Earth Scenery For XPlane 11 ? If so is it worth investing (its not cheap !) Thanks Guys David

Hi, does anyone here know how to get your account deleted and removed from their database at the org? I don’t want them to have my details anymore and I certainly won’t be back there. The admins there leave a LOT to be desired. I won’t go in to details, but, that please needs a massive shakeup. If I were Austin I wouldn’t be letting them associate with my product. They have the potential to ruin the xplane name.
