Apologies if this is in the right place but can't see a separate forum for this product ?. I have contacted the company direct but they are only open weekdays...... I have a fully registered product and recently received an update notification - I am now on build number 5.0.2020.0228.However, every time I start the program I have to register the product again which is very frustrating. This has only been happening since the last update. Any ideas why this is happening and how to resolve it please ? Thank you

Is it just me, or are certain landmark models in ORBx TrueEarth GB glowing white at night? I had a quick flight around EGPD Aberdeen, and there was a big, glowing building to my right when I was on final approach. I also saw a small glowing white building on the coast just south of Stonehaven, and I am betting that this is supposed to be Dunnottar Castle.....a ruin with no lights at all! Why are they displayed like this?

How do you guys feel Orbx' "Regions?" I want to buy either North or South Germany, but I remember when I purchased the Southern California region, it was very frame rate heavy on my rig. I know Los Angeles doesn't compare to Germany, but because of the frame rate issue, I disabled Los Angeles and just use Base/Vector/NA LC. Just don't want to waste money.

Hi, this one has to be one of my first buy in 2010 or so, a year or 2 and i know performance was always a treat but the detail was out of this world of time. I am sitting here right now and it still looks like a 2020 scenery (with drop to 15fps as it always did) What is it with Brisbane ? Michael Moe

Hello, for some time ago I bought the Aerosoft Mega Airport Oslo v2 scenery for P3DV4, but here is a couple of problems I’m encountering: 1. I still have the default scenery overlapping with the paid scenery. I can still see the old taxiways in the middle of the new ones and also the buildings are sort of overlapping each other, so I can only see the default scenery because its outside of the paid scenery. I have two towers. 2. I can’t spawn at all the gates. I can only spawn on 1-18 and 170-190 or something, but not on the other gates. What i wanna do is to completely remove the default airport, and get permission to spawn at all the gates on the airport. …

Also posted this on the P3D forum. I want to use the CalClassic airline traffic and not the P3D v4 native airline traffic...problem is both use the traffic slider for control of traffic density. So if I move the slider to "0" I also loose the CalClassic airline traffic. I also don't want to disable the "trafficAircraft.bgl" file as I use the native P3D v4 GA traffic. Anyone have a solution? Or does anyone know of a good GA traffic add-on...I have Orbx GA traffic, which is great, but only really useful in the Western Regions. Thanks for any help, Garry

Here's my latest video channel review of a recently released flight sim product you might have missed. It's nice and inexpensive and goes a long way toward solving a common problem with FMC arrival planning. This review also features some fun stuff too, so I hope you like it and it cheers you up a bit if you're stuck at home in the present crisis:

I am flying in the virtual world in my PMDG 737 home cockpit, but I feel a little alone in these Corona times and would like to have ATC chatter to keep me with company. Where can I find the best solutions for implementing ATC chatter to P3Dv4 when I fly my PMDG 737 NGXu? This is not a thread to fight over which solution is best, but a thread request for a list of available solutions, both free and payware solutions.

For over a hour or so, I'm trying to replace the interiour files. The readme tells, that I could just put the .dds files into the /texture folder... (Mine are not located at the install folder, but at Documents) These files are put in /texture (and replaced the default ones), but the new textures don't load... the old ones appear?! How is that possible if I already replaced them by a new files? Just to be sure, I put the C1, C2, C5 and C8 @/texture.F-GOAP @/texture @texture.pbr too. Why don't they work? Any suggestions? I can't find any other SimObject folder that contain the A2A planes....

Just for the 175/195 combo. From Feelthere: "You can re-download your product from the link you received during purchase. You will need to re-install the plane from scratch. Once the 170/190 is out we will release the list of fixed items in a more official announcement."

Hello everyone, I've come across an issue with my UK2000 Luton 2020HD. There are no markings on the runway and taxiways. The scenery was working absolutely fine until I opened FTX Central and udpated to the new orbx central and updated my orbx libraries, global and england. There are areas of the scenery where the markings are coming through slightly. This is what the scenery looks like: http://prntscr.com/rng5sq Areas where the markings are showing through: http://prntscr.com/rng6jn So far I have tried deleting the EGGW BGL'S from the ORBX\Scenery folder, moving UK2000 Luton above all orbx entries in the scenery library. I hav…

I have so many things installed that made things bit complicated.....I do have FT CYYZ but not sure that is the problem. In FT Config I did set up correct month (I choose may), but I still have a snow on Airport itself and whole northern part of NA, currently flying CYYZ EGLL. So I guess that's not the case, In P3D settings I have Spring...so that doesn't help either.....I did install few week ago FS RealTime but not sure what that has to do with the snow and season.....AS is in live mode and clearly there is no Snow on the ground.....Last thing that I DIDN'T check is ORBX....and I am not sure if there is setting available to change season.... Anyone has advice? …

Been away for a considerable time. Does anyone know of someone who could create a USMC paint for Zenith 701, in colors white / red with USMC emblem. Possibly red nose cone, white body, some red trim and USMC emblem. Haven't installed paints since I flew FSX, so very foggy on procedure, so install instructions for P3D v4.5 would be appreciated. Regards, Eagle

Hi Can anyone assist with this, suddenly the lights on the pushback vehicle have turned blue. It is the same with my QW757 taxi and landing lights. Has something happened to the halo file? I have no idea whats happened, I've changed nothing. I have attached a photo showing the blue shine from the vehicle lights but note they shine at white. https://drive.google.com/file/d/190xe6r6WczzIi32yA7thrB8p0gngs1du/view?usp=sharing https://drive.google.com/open?id=1frW84UBOxudnsKVK4CmtYQYfNqEDzliw Thanks
