    This utility allows you to easily locate, edit, save, backup and restore these important files in a code editor, similar to an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) with syntax highlighting to improve readability of the files.
    All editions of Prepar3D (v1 to v4) are supported, these are the files handled by this utility:
    ◦ Prepar3D.Cfg
    ◦ Scenery.Cfg
    ◦ Terrain.Cfg
    ◦ Cameras.Cfg
    ◦ Dll.xml
    ◦ Exe.xml
    ◦ SimConnect.xml
    Full details, screenshots and a free 30-day demo are available on the
    TweakFS website .

The stage can be used independently or in addition to Bretagne VFR Vol.2. It is also compatible with Truelandscape.
     
    TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS:
    - Ground textures of about 0.25 to 0.5 meter / pixel resolution from aerial photography reworked for an optimal visual rendition (summer only) including night textures.
    - Autogen buildings and vegetation for each platform including night textures.
    - 2 versions included : standalone version (also suitable for TRUElandscape) and Regional VFR compatible version.
    - Flatten/slope platform correction for each airport.

    X-Plane Vulkan Beta 11.50

    | 386 views

    Laminar Research, creator of the X-Plane flight simulator franchise, is proud to announce the long-awaited Vulkan/Metal update of its flagship desktop simulation product, X-Plane 11.50 Beta   Laminar normally does not publish press releases for beta versions of X-Plane, but the Vulkan release is so important to the X-Plane 11 roadmap that we decided to publicly announce it before the final-release version is available.   Vulkan (PC) and Metal (Mac) are rendering level APIs that change how X-Plane interacts with the graphics card. They are faster than OpenGL that X-Plane has used in the past.  Overall, most users will see improved frame rates and reduced stutters when using Vulkan or Metal.   In X-Plane 11.50 Beta, there is a check-box in the rendering settings that enables Vulkan or Metal.  A restart of X-Plane is necessary for the change to take effect.  If for some reason a user encounters problems while using Vulkan or Metal, OpenGL is still available by simply unchecking the Vulkan/Metal check-box.   X-Plane 11.50 has been in private beta testing since the end of 2019. During the long development cycle for the 11.50 Beta, better handling of plugin drawing was added,  a new process for texture paging was added and iterated 3 times, and multiple fixes to increase performance were added.    X-Plane 11.50 Beta is now available to all X-Plane 11 users on both the Laminar and Steam sites through the X-Plane 11 update feature.   More technical information on the Vulkan update can be found at https://developer.x-plane.com/2020/03/d9-you-sunk-my-battleship/
    All,
    I'm sad to announce @Jim Young passed away on Saturday, March 28, 2020.
    Jim has been an AVSIM member, volunteer, and board member for nearly two decades.  He lived a life of service to the United States of America as an intelligence officer.  He was dedicated to help others enjoy flight simulation as much as he did and authored and revised two prominent AVSIM publications:  The Crash to Desktop Guide and the Basic FSX Configuration Guide.  These guides have helped tens of thousands of people to date and will continue to help our readers.  Thus, Jim's legacy will live on through our memories, his posts, and his publications.  
    I got the chance to meet Jim on a few occasions and know he loved his Corvette and to golf.  Jim also loved this community and was a good friend of Tom Allensworth.  I can only imagine Tom was there to welcome Jim through the pearly gates, especially for his role in ensuring AVSIM's future after Tom's sudden passing in 2015.
    Jim will be missed.  No more pain, my friend... rest easy.
    A memorial thread has been started here to keep everything in one place for Jim's family and friends.
