    Morning all Can I kindly seek some advice re installing extra scenery when I have already installed DX10 fixer. Just done a fresh install of FSX SE and wanted to make sure it was running correctly so installed one of my UK 2000 airports ASN Orbx GLobal and LC Europe and the Aerosoft Airbus. All runs nicely and I now wish to add all my other airports and UT 2 traffic, so the question is do I have to uninstall the DX 10 fixer then add the scenery and if so is it just a case of uninstalling the Libaries and then re installing. If someone could advise the best way it would be appreciated. ,thanks in advance Mark

    i was just about to purchase the dx10 fixer. And now I see that orbx has hd trees. I can only afford one item here. What would you guys do? I have been using dx9 for years now. I would really like to use light bloom and vc shadows. But the had trees look great and it says it will give ya a performance boost. Decisions decisions

    I just installed MyTraffic6 and notice that the bloom on the models is very intense. I have bloom enabled under DX10 Fixer version2.8. Any ideas on how I can adjust this affect or is this simply something to do with the models themselves and cannot be fixed using the Fixer?

    everytime i go into my fsx.cfg my max texture load is always at 1024. I change it back to 2048. Open fsx. Close fsx. Then go back into the cfg and the value is back to 1024? Strange.

  7. Finally, a driver that enhances FSX. With this 344.11 driver with DX10 and bloom enabled, a look straight into the sun will cause a near white-out effect whether you are in the cockpit or outside. This will take a bit to get used to, though looking at the sun IRL is a bad idea too. Enjoy!

    how do I get the shadows in the cockpit of the Pmdg 737? I bought the fixer. Turned cast shadows on the ground and on itself. Light bloom on. Lens flare on. Still running the older Pmdg ngx update. But I thought it worked with the last update

  9. i downloaded the simple sun mod from the Avsim libary. And the sun and lens flare is fantastic. Will it still work the same with dx10? Thanks

    i got the fixer. Does the fixer automatically enable bloom? Do I turn bloom off or on in the fsx settings menu? Thanks.

  12. I have updated and installed Fixer version 2.8. I ran the shaders for FSX-SE and then copied them to another location. Next I uninstalled the shaders and the ran the fixer again to install them into FSX. Finally, I copied the shaders backup from FSX-SE back to the original location. So my question is this....will this now work for both FSX and FSX-SE ?

    Hi all, I have been away from the sim community for a couple months and I notice that Steve's DX10 fixer is the hot topic at the moment. Are PMDG pilots using this and is it fully compatible with all current PMDG products? I have not been using DX10 Preview due to it's known 'limitations' and performance issues. If this is a recommended purchase, is there a good place to get started on setting it up correctly? Thanks!

    i see that the number 1 misc fsx file is the dx10 shader fixers v 3.2.2. Is that the same as steves dx10 fixer? Also does dx10 make it easier to run light bloom that is easier on frames? Thanks

  16. Hallo, just finished to portover some of my favoured legacy aircraft into FSX and most of them seem to work really fine in FSX. But the Legendary F-104 of CaptainSim is a tough nut indeed. After having done a lot of experiments with the alpha channel, I don't get a solution how to get a clear view outside the cockpit - it stays dark like a sunglass in DX10. Using DX9 everything is fine. Does anybody know how to fix it or is this bird sentenced to life in FS9 only? Thank you very much in advance for every hint. Regards, Manfred

    Hello, Since the season changed to spring my night colours are strange even at late hours, i get some kind of dusk colours even at hours like midnight and later. The picture below it's not from my fsx but is similar, and i even have some yellow in the horizont. Im using Steves DX10 Fixer and Mogwaisoft shader, but even without the second one the problem stays. If i put the season at winter, the colours become dark again and more natural for the hour. Anyone got something similar? How to solve this? Thank you

  19. Hey guys, sorry if that is old stuff, but i was wondering i am the only one experiencing some strange behaviour of the wakes behind AI ships?! I am using the fabulous AI Ships and Traffic packs to have some nice boat traffic around the globe. All these ships have a wake effect behind, but when i am flying high or watch out the cockpit to a ship in the distance, the wake effects show some kind of flickering. It seems to be some sort of z-fighting?! When i do low flybys, the effects are ok. I have the standard FSX wave animation, and as the effects don't flicker when beeing close to it, i don't think it's an issue with the effects or the textures themselves. And it …

    Hello, I have a question about DX-10. So recently, I have gotten some new airport sceneries for my Flight Simulator. At first, things were really looking great. I tested my planes out at the airports to see if things really worked. I noticed that something wasn't right at all. For an example; whenever I would load my plane at the gate, the whole jetway wouldn't have it's colors. The AES vehicles would be grayish too as you could see in the image below. So I rested my FSX and it was still doing it. I then came back to my computer the next day to give it a try. This time, I flew from Seattle to Anchorage. I had no problems landing but when I got to the gate the same thing…

    Hi All, I recently purchased the commercial DX10 fixer and decided to try the switch again using the latest "How to" guide. I am simply astounded at the difference this time. Talk about amazing ! My sim has a whole new lease of life. One question every aircraft is super smooth, 737NGX, Airbus X but I had some issues with my PMDG 777. Wasn't quite as good with some stuttering, it is very small but there. I played around with a few things but the best overall result was removing buffer pools completely from my config. It is almost the perfect sim apart from the 777 Usepools=0 didn't really work even though I have a fairly powerful system. My question is can som…
