Real Taxiways For MSFS
FTD1949 commented on Chuck_Jodry-VJPL's article in Product Announcements & Press Releases
Will the MSFS built in ATC give correct taxiway instructions after this is installed?? Thanks -
I just started getting an Invalid License message after a recent Garmin Update. Have no reason why that I can think of. XP11 Vulkan and non-vulkan

Can someone tell me how to use rcv4encrypt.exe to generate the key code for the free RC4 ?? Thank you, Craig

Hi All, I just downloaded and installed the free RC4 and required plugin for X Plane. Can someone tell me how to generate a key using RCv4 Encrypt ? Thank you, Craig

My new machine will have a 500 GB SD. Why leave almost the entire disk unused ? On my current machine Win 10 uses less than 20 Gb.

New machine for P3D v3
FTD1949 replied to FTD1949's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
I don't expect miracles but I do hope to have at least be able to use something from PMDG. -
Hi All, Haven't had a new machine since well before P3D was released. My old machine died a quick and painless death so I was left with my laptop with an I7 4th gen 4500U at 1.6 GHz 2 core with a max turbo of 3.0 GHz and an Nvidia 745M. P3D v3 actually runs well as long as the settings are fairly low. At any rate here is my new machine. Intel 6700k @ 4GHz 8 GB DDR4 @ 2666GHz ASUS Z170 Mobo 600W PS GE Force GTX1060 8GB Air cooled Think it will run P3D v3 well? I'm at my budget limit and the parts are ordered. Thanks

New PC Help for P3D v3
FTD1949 replied to FTD1949's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
Hi All, Thanks you for the tips. Went to a local PC store to price components and since it's been about 10 years since I built a machine it seems that buying vs. build is pretty close. Again since I've been out of the build business I'm behind the curve on components. At one time I had an AMD machine that ran (at the time) games and FS great. Does anyone recommend one over the other? Pros and cons of Intel vs. AMD ? Thanks again -
New PC Help for P3D v3
FTD1949 replied to FTD1949's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
Charlatan, With all due respect you are making assumptions and your statement doesn't help me much. I currently run P3D v3 on An ASUS Q550LF laptop with an I74500U@ 1.8Ghz and a Geforce 745M since my gaming rig crashed and burned. With stock aircraft and medium settings I have no problem getting 20fps but would obviously get better results with a newer build. With that being said why would I be underwhelmed with the machine I asked about ? Respectfully, Craig -
FSX and FS2004 Software/hardware-moving soon.

No Q 300. Sorry -
Anyone near or in Roanoke, Va.? Getting house ready for sale. Have been out of the FS game for a while. Have a lot of software I'd like to get rid of. Give me a yell. Craig
