  1. It is different than the post above that quoted incorrect information.
  2. This doesn't appear to be the way the Sim is modeled, it is just a toggle, open or closed?
  3. That is part of my concern. The web page indicates it is not their DRM and you have to contact Land3 Simulations for drm issues. So now you have Orbx to buy and install. The developer to contact if there is a problem, unless it is a drm issue contact Land3.
  4. Just saw that too. Lande3 are the folks that sell the vRAAS add on. There is no DRM with that that I see. Changes it from instabuy to wait a bit for me...
  5. I have had a similar issue. When this happens, I can usually get FlowPro working by going to the MSFS toolbar, going to the gear icon, finding the two flow entries and clicking them a couple of times. (the status of the slider/indicator doesn't change when I do that). Then, it suddenly works again. It also says you should be able to hold your CTRL key for three seconds to pop up settings, though I have not tried that. Joe

    I am seeing that on my laptop, and do not like it. You can use CTRL mouse wheel in Edge to zoom to a smaller setting that will show the entire width. On my desktop it is ok at default. I do not like the new home page (yet)...
  7. Great tip, anyone who uses FLOW this can be done under the FLOW options as well.
  8. Curious to hear what you see. For me the whole complex at the NE corner is overlapped with default buildings. Tried with an empty add ons folder except for it, moved it all the way to the end in priority, nothing worked. I also have the GSX issue, but that is not what matters to me as much. They said they identified and had fixed it but found the ground poly had issues in the latest msfs2024. That is what I purchased was 2024... Thx
  9. Propair is bad. After waiting almost two months for a fix, I inquired yesterday as to status of default buildings showing through in the GA areas. I was told they had identified the issue. Now they are saying they fixed that, but "broke" something else in the process and do not know how to fix it. So they are just moving on. Even though I bought it as a 2024 product (separate from 2020 and at full price) they said it was an older 2020 product. Working to get a refund. Avoid them as their support sucks.
  10. I won't disagree - if you are using it in 2024, can you see if the north-east GA area displays ok for you? I purchased from ORBX, and on the north ramp area all the default buildings are still present and overlap the add-on. I confirmed no overlapping sceneries, tried with empty community folders except for this add-on,etc. The dev acknowledged, said they identified the issue on their end and would issue an update "soon", but I first reported the issue over a month ago.
  11. The cycle of folks up in arms over other people being up in arms about something else is a classic example of the pot calling the kettle black. This beats a Netflix subscription with all the indignation and drama. The repaint in the first post is hilarious, but the rest of the thread takes it to another level. I paid my $30 and am enjoying the AC w/o regrets. Although I never expected it to actually be "two cups of coffee" in cost, I do think the criticisms are valid and the repaints are a response in kind. It is not as if anyone reasonable here has truly slandered them, moaned and threatened "legal action" or to "report them to the authorities".
  12. I would suggest submitting a ticket for a receipt if you have not already. I wanted one in case I ever needed proof of purchase beyond their website. I did and got a receipt back within an hour or so...
  13. I am going to try disabling the default ships using the Content Manager utility. Has anyone tried this / or know if it will create havoc?
  14. I think they are going to have some issues to sort out. Hopefully quickly. I purchased on my phone and paid with PayPal. My PayPal receipt shows correct item and amount. But I got an email from PMDGsaying my order was still in process. It references the sa.e order number but the shows the 77F at a different price, which i already own
  15. Reading through this, it appears that the Global option is not the individual packages wrapped up. It says for instance local ferry systems, populated marinas and leisure traffic are part of their regional packs, so not a bargain buy, just an addition.
  16. I got the 1.6.11 patch and spent time getting set up in 2024. First landing about halfway on rollout jerked hard left and off the rwy. Second landing went better, until I tried adding some reverse thrust and had a hard snap 180 ground loop and ended up going down the runway tail first.
  17. MANCH is an RNAV waypoint (the star symbol). Coincidently there is a DME there as well (the blue box) "MANCHESTER" MHT / Chnl 91 /114.4. Makes more sense if you can look at an Enroute Low Chart (L32 or L33).
  18. Another plus for FSHud for me is it will use ActiveSky weather so I can fly "historically". SI had that, but it stopped working and I was told it was going away. SI has become bloatware to me. I had numerous problems with SI, some on departure, mostly on arrivals and I filled out the post flight comments in detail about 90% of the time. Nothing improved or changed. I like BATC, but inability to use historical weather limits when I can use it. Also - as mentioned you can change arrival details in FSHud, not only STAR, approach etc but also your arrival gate / parking spot.
  19. FSHUD is my main go to now. I gave up on SI because the cost was not worth the issues. I constantly had issues on approach, always having to inquire about which runway and approach was in use, given last minute short cuts that result in unreasonable descents, being cleared to runways not suitable for the AC being used and the AI flat refusing to accept a request for change. My only issue with FSHUD is spacing on approaches. Seems like more than half the time I am put in queue behind someone too close and end up in a go around. Last flight into NZAA I could watch a turboprop turn to final and I was vectored in tight behind him, and even at minimum approach speed (as instructed by FSHUD) I was on top of him before short final. I am not aware of any adjustments the user can make in this regard, but would be nice to increase spacing by a couple of miles to also allow slow AI to clear runways.
  20. 1 through 5 plus 9, plus 10. It's a simulation, so by not using time acceleration and instead "wasting" electricity I am somewhat emulating the hydrocarbons burned that a real AC would use flying a long haul (or any other flight for that matter). Since I am flying the C750 cross country with just a few passengers I wonder if I should turn on all the lights in my house to use more energy.
  21. Interesting, I am still seeing $24.99 / $39.99 / $49.99 . . .
  22. That thread really doesn't give me much hope... Time will tell I guess.
  23. Late reply, as I found this thread looking for any other comments. I have the Airvan basic edition (MSFS2020), and am having serious issues with it. My issue doesn't appear widespread on Discord, but I have had no real response either. I fully realize it is not turbo charged, but trying to take off with a moderate to heavy load at 4,000 to 5,000 MSL feet is impossible. The aircraft accelerates to 60kts, and will not go much past that, except maybe 65 to 70 kt under 20 deg C. It eats up almost twice the published takeoff distance for the altitude and temp, and it will not climb w/o stalling or accelerate. I have leaned to max egt and 50 deg rich of peak. IRL it has about the same power loading as a 182 w/ slightly higher wing load, so I would expect it to be ok warm and high, and their own takeoff charts seem to support this. If that were fixed it would be ok, but I personally don't see anything special about it. Tablet is fair but minimal. It is a spartan cockpit, which is realistic, but it looks ok. Joe
  24. NOT releasing on 10th now. They are saying it will be Tuesday 7/22 (yes a Tuesday). Per post on DISCORD.
