  1. Works like a charm now, thanks everyone for the help! Mike
  2. Hi, I'm running into the exact same issue - can't open the GSX application though it shows up in my addon menu in P3D. Not sure if I follow regarding updating client and content.msi. Where would i locate this? Appreciate the help, thanks! Mike
  3. Finally found a solution after changing my search criteria in the forum. For anyone else with this issue you can go to: http://forums1.avsim.net/topic/238284-asa-loads-and-minimizes-resolved/ Thanks, Mike
  4. I never participated on the thread, had just found it in a search
  5. It happend a few months ago and I remember a search in this forum solved my issue. Can't seem to find the thread anymore. Can anyone help? Thanks! Mike
  6. Hi all, picked up the Katana and Ryan/Al, you guys are both dead on! This is exactly what i was looking for :)Really appreciate all the replies and suggestions, thanks!Mike
  7. Hi Stick, happy i checked with you first! They are certainly not giving the Skycatcher away and I just couldn't find any info on the web reviewing it. I'm a big A2A fan - they have really set the bar high, and just having trouble finding a good low and slow GA with radio stack that i can practice circuits and short vfr flights on that would be comparable in feel and flight dynamics to some of their aircrafts. Carenado just doesn't do it for me...Thanks again for your input, much appreciate it.MikeThanks Ryan, I'll look at the Eaglet
  8. Hi, did you buy it? I'm also surpised to see very little info n the web on it and am considering buying it.Thanks
  9. Hi I've gone to Caredano for this issue and they told me they could not re-create it. I'm very surprised how quiet this forum is - is it that not many have the aircraft or is nobody else is having this issue? I haven't flown her since...Mike
  10. Thanks folks - appreciate the help!Mike
  11. Thanks Richard and Paolo - appreciate the help! I'll give it a try tonight :)Mike Normandeau
  12. Can someone help on this – have always had this problem with the MD11. Was doing a Montreal Toronto flight on Vatsim this afternoon – had set up my approach from Montreal for a Simcoe2 star, runway 15L. As I was approaching my descent Toronto center called for a Simcoe2 runway 5 approach. Updated the approach in the FMS to runway 5 – that is when I noticed on my flight plan page that it had both approaches inputed in the fms! I had to manually delete a bunch of intersections – this while taking descent commands from ATC. I've run into this before with this aircraft – can someone explain fms procedure for changing runways? I plan on doing a return to Montreal – hope to have it sorted by then :)Thanks!Mike
  13. As mentioned on the other open thread, bought the MD11 course last week and completely blow away by the content. I've had the MD11 for a couple of years but put her aside for a while. This course has re-ignited my interest for her - highly recommended.Mike Normandeau
  14. Bought the MD11 course last week and am completely blown away by the content. The work Chris and Nick put into this thing is unbelievable - I was on the fence for a while on buying it but am happy I did. These guys add so much to the community.Mike Normandeau
  15. Same problem here - how can they have released this product with this noticeable problem???? Don't give me "its an fsx problem" as I have many other payware aircraft that don't have this problem. Pressing "H" kinda takes the realism out of flying it. Is there word that they are addressing it? Unbelievable...Mike
  16. Excellent - look forward to it Dan! Mike
  17. Thanks a bunch for all you input folks - based on your recommendations finally have it running pretty smoothly. The winner tweak so far seems to be Paul's Vsync cfg tweak. That seems to have gotten rid of the stutters while taxing which is great. I'll take in all your recommendations and slowly implement - will report back with to let you know how I made out.Thanks again!Mike
  18. Hi Wims - it was a new installation, I've installed and installed fsx so many times in the last week that I am wondering if the reg is all screwed up... I ran some tests on the crossfire set up and thunderbolt is correct - it does not enhance performace. i looked at the gpu load and it is non exististent. Taking it out and will return it :) I did do a degrag between setups also so I know that is not the issue.I don't understand how my old system which is far inferior to this one ran FSX much better.....Will take your advice and tweak in bits instead of batches. I don't have any experience in overclocking but will look into it - do you have any websites you can recommend for me to do some research?Thanks again to all for the recommendations.MikeWhat is Vsync?
  19. Hi Squishy - yup, tried his cfg but it made my font all fuzzy and didn't eliminate my problem Also used FPS Limiter as per his recommendation and although it does reduce the problem, it doesn't eliminate it. With my old rig it used to be very smooth, with this much better rig is stutters. Also update Directx as well as drivers... Seems my problems spyked when I installed Reality XP's WS530 - not sure if that is related. I'm at the point of thinking of doing a complete reformat of my hard drives and set it up myself. Then again, would hate to go through all of that and end up with the same problem.
  20. Hi All - well, I finally decided to splurge and buy a new rig for FSX. With my old HP I was getting between 25-30fps with frames set to unlimited and fsx was smooth as butter. I still saw lower frames in the PMDG JS41 (18-21FPS) and wanted to ensure I would have a system that would be able to handle the new PMDG 737 as well as add some payware sceneries. Since I've had my system its been a nightmare. Although my fps are through the roof flying my A2A B-17 (50FPS with settings high), the stutters are brutal! I've done lots of reading on the Avsim forum, changed my fsx.cfg file as per some of the recommendations, used FPS limiter at 30FPS as recommended, but can't seem to get rid of the stutters! I went as far today as to buy another HD5770 and crossfired it but still have not seen the stutters disapear. I'm pulling my hair out at this point - very frustrated. Can anyone recommend a fix? With my rig specs I should not be seeing this... Thanks in advance for the help. Specs below: * case atx antec nine hundred two * intel core i7 950 3.06ghz/8m/s1366 * sapphire pcie rad dh5770 1024m hdmi box (crossfired) * sata2 1.0tb seagate 7200.12 32m st31000528as * s1366 asus rampage II extreme x58 rog * ms-win 7 home prem x64 dvd oem en 1pk * dvd+/-rw lg gh22ns50 sata dl 22x oem blk * 750w atx corsair tx * kingston hyperx 1600 mhz ddr3 6gb kit intelMike
  21. Bonne fete mon ami!Mike
  22. Hi - I've tried everything written in this thread to get it to work with no luck. My bat file is: Start C:\"FPS Limiter\"FPS_Limiter.exe /r:D3D9 /f:30 /x:OFF /l:OFF " C:\FSX\fsx.exeI disabled UAC, have the bat file as well as fps limiter exe file in "fps limiter" folder that I created and put in my c drive. I changed the exe file to run as administrator, and on compatibility tab I have "disable desktop composition". I don't get it - can anyone help?Appreciate it, thanksMike
  23. Hi - do you have any plans to develop an ERJ145 edition?Thanks,Mike
  24. Mikenor replied to Rusty107's topic in Voice Control Version
    Just re-read the manual and assigned "alternate static source (on/off)" to button 2 and I know have mute! Why am I able to assign it from the fsx menu but unable to assign it from the fs2crew config manager?Thanks,Mike

    Hi Bryan - I am also having a problem with soft muting, no key or CH yoke assignment work for me. Thought it was just me so didn't give it another thought until I saw this thread on the forum. Question: When I assign an key or button from the JS41 config manager, should the assignment show up if I close, then re-open the drop down menu in the "mute voice recognition assignment"? For me, after assigning a key, saving and closing the config manager, opening it again the assignment I selected does not show (shows blank). Any assignment I choose, either keyboard or joystick does not work when testing in fsx (I speak and see it in green text at top of screen).Please let me know, thanksMike
