Are there any library objects for stores like Walmart, Home Depot, Lowes? Or ​restaurants like McDonald, Burger King, and other restaurants? ​ I would like to add them into my sceneries.

I have the same thing. I bought both today. Installed the base just fine, but got the same message as Ralph got with the expansion. I also have the 777. I'm also running windows 10 pro 64bit with 16 gigs of ram. I probably need to us that reg. tool. Don't know if it will work or not.

I'm wondering how pmdg 737ngx works with windows 10 and fsx SE. I have the pmdg 777 and it works great especially after the last update, even in and out of airports like FB ksfo hd and dreamfleet airports. I have iFlys 737 and after I upgraded to win 10, it just sucks up memory then OOM. It's also real jerky and brings down the frame rate to single digits. But no one at their forum has that problem. I've uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail. I had the legacy pmdg 737 back years ago and now I want a 737 that will work. My Level D works and MJC dash 8-Q400 is great, but I want to use the 737 for short trips too.

Thanks for the help.

My flight simulator is set to lbs and not kgs. But when I look at the fuel in phenom, it shows the fuel amounts in kgs. Can I change this instead of having to convert it to lbs?

I'm still having trouble getting the files for fsbuild right. I did a flight from kiah to kelp. It was 587ktm, and fl360. My payload was 1312 for a zfw 8212. Could some one tell me about how much fuel I'd need? The figures that I got was around 39% in each tank. Of course that did work. Now after playing around with the prf file it tells me I need 2076 lbs of fuel. That's over the fuel capacity. A work in progress.

I did find I had a POH I downloaded the other day. I think I've set up a prf for fsbuild. I'll be trying it out to see how it works (no guarantees). But if it gets in the ball park, that will be good enough for me. I did go to fuelplanner.com, but they didn't have a Phenom 100. And I don't know what would be close to it to get a ruff estimate. I'll let you guys know when I've tried it a few times and see if I had enough fuel left or too much.

How do you calculate the fuel needed for a flight. I have fsbuild, but there's no prf files for the Phenom 100. It came with pdf for performance, but how to calculate taxi, t/o, climb, decent and all that. Any help would be appreciated.

The sound problem does happen on other planes, just not as bad as the T7. I don't see anything in the right bottom of the screen. But it's still open because ASN says it's still connected to FSX. That's why I have to run task manager. On the sound, sometimes when I click on the menu bar it will do that stutter. It has to be win 10. It didn't start happening till I upgraded from win 7 pro 64. Maybe some day they will get it fixed.

FSX + acceleration, for the most part is working good. I'm having some sound issues that I can't seem to fix.Most of my aircraft work well, some get a whoos whoos sound when I flick a switch. It does it 4 times, then back to normal, I.E. my LVD 767. My iFly 737 does it with some of the sound like, weather radar test, and during pushback with AES or GSX. Now my pmdg 777 is doing it all the time. It's the recirc fans that are normal for about 2-4 seconds, then whooos, whooos 4 times, then repeat. I can fly but I have to turn the sound way down or hit Q to sound off while taxing or taking off... I can't figure out what is causing this. I even got a new sound card that's newer than my old one. It's a pciE 1 SB audigy FX and it has the windows 10 software I installed. But that didn't solve the problem. I don't know where to look now. It all worked good in win 7 pro 64 bit, and this is win 10 pro 64 bit. I'm running 8gigs of ram and a NVidia geforce gtx 750ti 2gig. Any ideas the problem? Oh, and one more thing is when I close FSX, it shuts down but doesn't totally close. I have to go into task manager and end task. Can't figure that one out either.

I have an Audigy 2 value sound card. The sound works fine for music and other games in win 10. But in fsx I'm having problems with some of my aircraft. In most of my small planes, when I click on the switches or buttons, I get the sound cutting in and out about 4 times. Then it stops. This also happens with my lvd 763. My iFly 737, it will also do it during pb. Now my pmdg 777 is the big problem. It does it constantly. It will make 4 wooosh sounds, normal for about 2 seconds then repeats. I can still fly, but I have to turn of sound so I don't go crazy. I don't know what's causing this. I'm thinking about getting another sound card, (which I probably should), mines quite old. But I don't know if that will fix the problem. In win 7 pro 64-bit I had no problems. And as I said, I can play music and other games with no problems. Open to any suggestions.

The main problem I'm having with fsx and win 10 is my sound. I have a SB Audigy 2 value with drivers that should work with win 10. But on my smaller planes ie Seneca V, The sound will wooosh, wooosh 4 times then back to normal. This is also the same with LVD 763. My iFly 737, I'll get the stuttering not only when pushing buttons and switches, but like when being pushed back by GSX or AES. Today I went to try my PMDG 777 and that wooosh sound was constant. It would do it 4 times, then a 5 to 10 second normal and do it all over again. I probably need to get a new card that has the win 10 drivers. My current card is obsolete. Any recommendations? The other problem is when I shut down fsx, it closes like it did in win 7 pro 64bit. But if I try to start it up, I get a message fsx is already running. So I have to use task manager to shut it down completely. I have no Idea what's keeping it from completely closing. In task manager it shows 0% cpu usage and it shows i.e. 112 mgb in memory. And I could let it sit there for hours and it wouldn't close. So it's not that I'm not waiting long enough. It doesn't shut down.

Do I have to select dx 10 preview since I'm now running windows 10? I do have the dx10 fixer installed and running and have dx10 preview selected in fsx. When I had windows 7 I just used dx9.

Do you need DX10 scenery fixer if you upgrade to DX11? My new video card came with the option to update to dx10 or 11. I'm still on dx9. I have fsx +acceleration.

Thanks for the help.
