732 fuel and configurator issues
just getting back into flying the tubes after a long hiatis... Using Version 2.140621 ( upgraded version for p3d ) of the Milviz 732 installed in P3D V2.5 Issue #1...The Milviz P3D menu manager won't plug any entries into the sim aircraft...i.e. fuel and payload entries made within the menu. Issue # 2 Always Full Tanks ...Using the Fuel and Payload drop down menu in P3D has no effect and all three tanks in the aircraft always reset to FULL. I've tried re installing...using different variants...loading fuel during different phases of start up ...etc... I did a web search and found nothing....isolated issue ?? Any help appreciated thanks Greg

Voice recognition problem
My first run through I had some minor recognition issues ( "ON = NINE" ) for example, but after another round of the Microsoft Speech Recognition Training i've had almost no issues...maybe worth a try

Comments after first flight
keep that up !! I was just pondering how this version somehow feels more personal, more genuine for lack of a better term, than other Fs2Crew releases. cheers

WoW Bryan !! thanks man B)

REX4 Direct Announced
I think it's a decent strategy to break out the main components and offer them seperatley. I have my own weather engine preferences, but consider the REX textures a must. Buying another FULL REX offering with wx engine would likely disuade me. cheers

I wanted vsync, so i dealt with the evil...
enabling Aero and using Vsync in V2 has FINALLY shed me of the nagging tearing I had with FSX

On DX10 - whow, what a better look :-)
I'd also like to add my gratitude for all the help I found in here...my transition to DX10 has not always been a smooth one, mostly due to my lack of patience....but there is a wealth of accumulated knowledge here if you look for it :-) Hay paul...I've been messing with Sweet FX but havn't quiet found the sweet spot yet...I realize the right ' look' of any sim is highly subjective, but if you get a chance I'd love to see your settings! cheers

FSX, will great FPS ever be achievable consistently?
I have a similar system and recently made the switch to DX10. The results are a smooth and stutter free simming experience. There is a dedicated forum here on Avsim to help get you started. cheers Greg

gtx260_dx10_FSAA with NI not working
...ok tried it out and the shimmering and AA artifacts are still present... if I may elaborate... I use Track ir and test these settings by slowly slewing up and down a runway at ground level. When i view any line ( taxiway...runway... ) or object straight on ( at zero degrees ...or 12 O'clock ) the effects dissapear and I get sharp lines with zero shimmering. When I look at an angle, say out the corner of the windscreen at 45 degrees, whatever lines are visible have strong shimmering and almost no AA ( jaggies ) as I move forward and turn my head whatever is directly in line with my site looks perfect....this is not a TRackIr issue because if i diasble and use the Hat switch to switch views the same effect occurs. do you think there is a NI to fix this ? Again, sorry for the hi-jack cheers greg

gtx260_dx10_FSAA with NI not working
Hi , at the risk of completely hi-jacking this thread I would really like to try this, as my main issue now is the shimmering of taxiway and runway lines... If I can figure out how to " link ' the new profile I will report back, thanks for the tip. Greg

gtx260_dx10_FSAA with NI not working
Watching this thread for answers as well.... I"m a recent DX10 convert as well and also have terrible AA within FSX plus shimmering with a GTX 580 (306.97) and nothing I do in NI seems to affect anything in FSX ! Can't say i done as much experimenting as the OP but for sure something ain't right. cheers

Multi Crew Experience questions
I havn't used MCE in a few months but.... like most of the MCE commands they are pretty darn close to what you would say in real life so try... " you have the radios " " you have the comms" ...plus there is a full list of Commands in the docs if you really get stuck cheers

REX Essential Plus and Overdrive are ready!
Man one of the thing I love about Opus right now is that you load and fly. I know there are many updates coming soon which will ' improve ' upon it's platform BUT I hope it doesn't morph itself into another " Setting's Buffet " I truly appreciate the effort from all the devs who attempt to satisfy everyone's needs and wants with weather depiction, but the amount of, and wording of, and descriptions of, all of these Options is crazy. cheers Greg

REX Essential Plus and Overdrive are ready!
One short test flight from Port Hardy CYZT to Nanaimo CYCD yesterday during overcast conditions. I flew the first half of the flight using REX + ....then re started the exact same flight using Opus. Sorry no pics but... The conditions at the departure airport where well depicted by both engines showing plenty of low level cloud and a nice thick overcast layer at 6000...during climb using REX + the transistion through the overcast layer was very convincing but once ' on top ' and climbing through higher altitudes the overcast layer below gradually dissipated until I was flying with a clear view of the ground. ....Opus, on the other hand, maintained that overcast layer below me throughout the entire flight ( I finished the flight using Opus ...only flew half the flight using REX ) so no fair comparison on arrival. ....no condemnation intended toward REX+ as this was a very short test flight. cheers Greg
