  1. Jean-Luc, nope no changes at all. I only re-installed with the extracted exe-file which of course wasn't the right procedure. I'll try it the proper way! 😄 Merry Christmas! /Krister
  2. I searched to forum but wouldn't fint anything so apologies if it has been covered already. I bought the RXP GTN 750 on the 7th December and got it installed. While I couldn't get it to install properly into the aircrafts using the provided tool, I still could use it via the pop-up configuration. Now I noticed that when I start the gauge it says "invalid license". The gps seems to work properly so it doesn't cause me any problems as far as I can tell, but still I'dr rather see it removed! 😄 I tried uninstalling from the control panel in windows 10 and re-installing but it still says the same. Any pointers? Best regards and Merry Christmas! /Krister, Finland
  3. Yeah, searching too. I have emailed them but at least my previous experience is that they either don't respond at all or take a few months.
  4. Sorry for jumping in like this, but I am looking at buying the Carenado 340 and noticed they have provded an easy integration of the F1 GTN750. Somewhere in the back off my head I remember reading that RXP provides a way of having their GTN760 on an iPad but I never quite understood how it worked. So, my question is how easy is it to get the RXP GTN750 into the VC of the Carenado 340 and does the iPad solution actually exist or am I dreaming?!
  5. Bob, I would say it's the wrong approach to plan and start a flight and then be disappointed that there is no ATC coverage on VATSIM. What I do is either find a FIR that has a fly-in or look on a map that shows ATC coverage on VATSIM and then pick a flight based on that. When I started flying on SATCO it opened up a whole new dimension to flightsimming!
  6. Personally I had absolutely no idea what to expect since it was quite clear it was not an airplane. I do remember that mysterious ACARS entry in the 747 menu in FSX that then just disappeared, and wasn't that like ...hmm ten years ago?! But will definitely get this one.
  7. Edit: indeed, what Carlos wrote worked. Had I realized that I woulld have paid 93,74 euros instead of 119,95 euros. Oh well..
  8. Thanks Mark! We had the Dynamic at the flight school so it certainly sounds interesting. P3D v4 isn't mentioned though on their website!
  9. Thanks for the info regarding Ant's Airplanes - never knew such developer existed. Especially the Eaglet interests me since the Rotax 912 is what I fly!
  10. Some of them are from MSFS2002 originally but they are better than nothing! :D I did a personal tour with the station manager at EFMA taking pictures of all the equipment and buildings that Bamce then used for his scenery. FISD was extremely productive back then!
  11. Don't know what it means in actual terms: "Works well in P3d v4 with FTX Global/Vector" http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php/108688-New-freeware-Finland-scenery
  12. Mikael, you don't happen to have some screenshots to show in case you have the scenery installed? My 300 euros worth of G.Skill Ripjaws V DDR4 3600 Mhz RAM sticks decided that 7 months of very rare use was enough so they throw in the towel...
  13. Thanks for posting that Ryan! "Finland base pack actually includes HD area of Aland and archipelago close by (west of Turku towards Marienhamn)." got me really thrilled since Aland is I where I live and fly IRL.
  14. Yes! the MD11 is coming back for P3D. Right Kyle? RRRRIIGHT?!?
  15. I just purchased P3D V4 and it's my first aquintance with the software so have never downloaded anything from them before. But I was totally shocked as to the download speed I got from them. I am in Finland so I don't know if it's a time zone thing, but I downloaded the 12,1 GB file in 3 minutes. Fastest server I have ever seen!! Amazon?!
  16. I just fired up the new rig the other day and will not do any manual overclocking since it's out of my league, so I just let the bios on my Asus Z270 Mark 1 do the overclocking. I have a Corsair H100i V2 AIO cooler and it's stable at 4,9. (an overclock of 17%). If I find a nice tutorial on how to try overclocking with this setup without risking damaging the CPU, I certainly could try it.
  17. Personally I am very concerned about that first african astronaut who is out there drifting around all alone in space with no food since they can't afford to get him down and they therefore kindly ask you to contribute some money for his wellbeing. You ask yourself what kind of person falls for these tricks but one was actually the a former minister of finance in Finland (not the astronaut scam but some other equally unbelievable Nigerian ditto)
  18. Martin, just wanted to say also that I have always paid great respect to your comments and views so I am grateful for you being around here on the forum. Personally I haven't been flying for almost a year now, unfortunately not IRL either. But yesterday I fired up for the first time my new rig, an Asus Z270 Mark 1, i7-7700K, 16 GB G-skill ripjaws DDR4 3600 Mhz, Samsung 850 EVO 1 TB SSD, Corsair H100i v2 (sorry... ;) ) and Asus GTX1070 and I'm about to purchase P3D as well as getting XP11. Spent the rest of the day just basically looking at it wondering, "oookay, where and how do I take it from here!? :D I lost touch with optimizing hardware many years ago...
  19. Chris, did you pay anything to get it installed? To be honest I'm not familiar with costs involved with cable broadband since we only have XDSL and fiber here where I live. I am getting fiber connection to my house anyday now and will try 1Gb/1Gb although I don't think it will improve my landings on Vatsim...
  20. Thanks for the answers! I am a bit surprised that you can have it installed for free since at least here it takes quite a bit of effort to get everthing into the ground and then into the house. Here in Fijnland you are not allowed to have a term commitment to a service, only if you have a physical product involved, so perhaps some kind of explanation. On the other hand mobile data is quite cheap here - with no cap on data or bandwith (I typicall download at approx 60-100 Mbps) I pay about USD 23 monthly for a 4G service.
  21. Thanks! I certainly would have thought fiber was readily available in San Fransisco. Perhaps many use internet over cable tv which can provide very high bandwith and therefore limits the interest in fiber?!
  22. As the title says I'm interested in what you pay to get fiber to your house! I work for an ISP here in Finland and finance my addiction to flightsimming by selling our fiber connections in my free time and some say it's soo expensive. In my small town of 13,000 inhabitants it costs 295 euros (approx USD 320) to get fiber installed and that's the total sum, ie it includes the fiber converter and everything involved in getting the fiber cable into your house and the service working. In the rural area it costs between 495 euro (USD 530) if the area is "fiber planned" to 1995 euro (USD 2150). It's difficult finding updated info on what it costs in other areas/countries and it's always dependent on many factors so therefore I'm asking! :)
