Thanks Barry...this is exactly what I was referencing.

Many years ago when I first got in to flight simulation, I inquired about how to determine and identify which files were included on the MS disks.  I wanted to know because in the early days, turning off certain files could improve my performance on the system I had at the time.

I came across this site which among other things had a grid map graphic of the world under the heading of "base file information" and the site began with the URL msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc(?)  The horizontal axis was labelled 0 to 11, and the vertical axis labelled 0 to 7.

Does this site still exist, or does anyone have a saved copy of that grid map?  I would like to print out another copy.

Thanks

I have switched over to UT Live from My Traffic Professional v6.0.  Should I uninstall the My Traffic Professional program?  I would think that they do not play nicely together.

Thanks

Dom

Thanks for the replies.  This is a behavior as of last evening,  I did update to GSX2 and then ran into this.  I have removed GSX2 but cannot get SODE registered.

I am getting this warning message when I run Sode v1.6.3:

[P3Dv4] Old Sode entries detected in exe.xml, dll.xml and simobjects.cfg at ProgramData location!  Platform manage will now try to remove these entries

How can I correct this.  I have uninstalled and re-installed SODE but with no joy.  P3Dv4.3 is installed on my drive designate as "E".

Can anyone offer any help?  I wanted to attach a screen shot image but cannot figure out how to do it

Thanks

Can this application be utilized within payware aircraft such as PMDG?  The first post suggests this using 32-bit aircraft in FSX.

Dom

Update...I found it under Aircraft - Equipment - pag3 3 of 11.

Topic closed for me.

Thanks for the reply.  I re-ran the installer to repair as you suggested, but no joy.  I looked through all of the pages within the options category and did not see an option as you described, but perhaps I missed it.  Can you be more specific where It would be?

The standby indicator below the MCP is not visible to me.  All I see is a square grey blank where the indicator should be.  It has writing on it that reads "ISFD heading from left IRS only",  I reviewed the manual which shows the indicator in section 10.  How do I get this to display?

Thanks

Will the current version of Topcat play nicely with P3DV4?

Dom

Yes.  I was referring to that interface mentioned in Kyle's post.  Thank you all for responding.

Dom

When I start up P3DV4, the interfered from which you select your options such as aircraft, scenery, etc is very dark, black in color.  Can this be modified or altered to a background more like what is illustrated in Rob's guide?

Thanks

Dom

Thanks all for your input and Happy New Year

I recently purchased a custom built PC exclusively for P3dv4 and am just installing the 3rd party peripherals.  I would like to know which is the better traffic program to purchase/install....Aerosoft (Bernard Renk) MyTraffic Professional 6.0a OR Flight1 Ultimate Traffic?

Thanks

Dom

Thanks for the reply.  For my clarity, the fsx products that I have reside on a windows7 computer.  I am ordering a completely new build specifically for P3DV4 onto which I will install P3DV4 only, and nothing from FSX.

When I install the scenery or products for which I have a license key and select the P3DV4 installer option, will this suffice or must I have the FSX product installed on the dedicated P3DV4 pc?

Dom

I have decided to move on to P3dV4 from FSX.  Where can I find  a list of FSX software that I can install in a new system built specifically for P3DV4.  I know that I will have to possible update some airports and utilities such as PFPX, ASN, FSUIPC etc.  Also, will any FSX titles have to be installed on the new system prior to using P3DV4?

Any help is appreciated.

Thanks

If you were to view the scenery cfg file, in what order would these be starting with [area.001] which I assume is the lowest area.

thanks

Dom

Thanks Pete.

Is this Traffic Limiter feature applicable to FSX which is what I use?

Dom

I am using FSX and have just experienced SODE.  I installed V1.31,  When I load FSX and the Free Flight screen appears, the window which would display the default Cessna, for example, is black and you do not see the selected aircraft.

Any help please?

Thanks

Dom

Thanks for the reply Ric.  I usually launch in this order:  PFPX -FSX - ASN - Pro-ATC.

Your order seems to make more sense.  So i should launch ASN first to establish weather.  PFPX would need the weather to generate a fight plan for import to FSX.  PRO-ATC needs the flight plan to calculate their ATC. Then FSX.  I'll try this.

Dom

I am curious to know what the optimum order for loading applications using FSX  given the following:

FSX

PRO-ATC

ACTIVE SKY

PFPX

Thanks

Dom

Which A380 package is this please?

Dom

If Bob Morehead did not mean to hijack the thread, then why do it?  I have experienced this behavior too many times.  Start your own topic.  The original post asked a very specific question and deserves a proper reply.

After opening the link, right-click on the text and "save as".  You will see the .ecs extension.
