KPDX For FSX

Featured Replies

Is there any decent freeware or payware for KPDX. I wished Flight-Zone would come back and produce a version.

 

Thanks

You can install Flight Zone if you own the 2004 version. There is an up date to make it work in FSX. It is called  FlightZone_2 Patch_for_FSX.

You don't  need  F.S. 2004 if using the  FLightzone_ 2 patch. It provides a dummy directory. I purchased and did what the file says  and had no problems. I had to remove quite a few files though. 

It seems to integrate well, but I have had a few anomalies, which might be caused by mesh. My work hours  force me to fly  at night  and I am using  active sky next  I am  really  happy with the setup. In the past using ORBX Portland my machine came to a crashing halt not so with this scenery. I will try it and post some pictures  this weekend or earlier if I can.

Sounds interesting!

Looking forward to Your screenshots!

Thank You very much in advance for all the effort!

Enjoy flying and happy landings.

I was able to use mine with photoreal scenery and it looked pretty darn good.  A few minor niggles but definitely good enough to use.

I've tried everything that I could find for the area and the airport.

 

IMHO, your very best bet would you Flight Sim Zone Portant (KPDX) with the FSX conversion (freely available on the Internet).

 

It's FANTASTIC with the FSX conversation files.  I believe it's for sale on SimMarket, but Google will tell you for sure.

 

I hope this information has been helpful to you.

Can't get the wrapper to work on windows 10.

I've tried :

Disabled the AV software on the box (Windows Defender).

Disabled the local firewall.

Launch with the "Run as Administrator" option

Start with WinXP, Win7, Win8 compatibility modes.

Disabled UAC via Control Panel
