Instead of adding airports, I added Airport Enhancement Package from X-Codr to the already outstanding default scenery.

XP12 Addon airports. yes or no? What say you?
Hi, I try to keep X-Plane 12 as close to default as I can, I have found with every base platform I've used adding custom scenery introduces flickers/stutters over time. The airports in 12 look good enough, but I only fly a tube liner.

Navigraph sub now offers traffic for XP12
CSL and Bluebell seem to work just fine with Live Traffic, only issue I've seen is the aircraft will change paint schemes when rolling from one computer to another via network.

Only issue with T/G, no traffic on the move! I get three maybe four aircraft on the move at KLAX and other large international airports!

My Night Lighting Edits Using Re-Shade & FlywithLua
Hi Everybody, I'm still experimenting with X-Plane 12 night lighting and I'm now running a combination of re-shade and flywithlua to give me the effect you see in the videos. I'm also using my own night lighting edit and custom distant tiles, along with Extended Lights.

FS2024 - How to Eliminate "Melted Buildings"?
Only way to get rid of the melted buildings is to uncheck Photogrammetry.

Do you guys have much luck using stick twist for rudder?
First it depends on your hardware! For instance Hall Effect Sensors are far superior to potentiometers, next would be adjusting software settings.

[TEASER] Something very different is coming
Another subscription, no thanks... I have two yearly subs already, Navigraph and Say AI. I like the smoother taxi shown in the video during turns and constant speed, I've been using Justflight so I can see this has improved. I would imagine they could work on the taxing aircraft and fix those few issues without a subscription. With Say AI working on traffic injection, I can't see me purchasing another yearly sub.

X-Plane 10 Aircraft - Exterior Light Help
Yeah, it looks like zibo mod uses V10 of the airliner in XP12. The above sugestion is one thing I didn't consider, I'll have to look into that. XP12 CD setup for lights makes things so much easier to setup. Thanks

X-Plane 10 Aircraft - Exterior Light Help
Hi, I run my own night lighting edits, both Reshade and Flywithlua, although I'm still waiting for the flywithlua to get approved by xplane.to. I'm IP barred from the org due to an issue with Nick so going there is out. I know I can use a vpn but, can't be bothered with that site! The issue is with the zibo mod taxi lighting. It is actually brighter than the landing lights, it's way too wide and the length of the light actually shines on a building at klax when sitting on a runway. All the other lights I've been able to figure out, this one is just being a pain. Thanks for the help!

X-Plane 10 Aircraft - Exterior Light Help
Hi Everybody, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to adjust the lights for XP10 aircraft. I'd like to reduce these lights by two thirds.

Multi screen use
I use one computer/monitor for each view for my external views, total three computers/ three 75" monitors. I use ZHSI for my glass screens on an additional computer for the other four screens. You could use Air Manager for your display screens.

Nvidia App Filters Workaround in MS2024 - Latest Drivers
Sorry to hear that, not sure if it matters. I installed MS2024 in its own MS2024 folder off of the C drive and my version is not the steam edition. Again not sure if this matters or not.

Nvidia App Filters Workaround in MS2024 - Latest Drivers
Yep, that seems to work with the latest graphics drivers. Not sure what this does to third party addons though.

Nvidia App Filters Workaround in MS2024 - Latest Drivers
Hi Everybody, Went back to some old work arounds that I’d found over time. It seems this one works to get the Nvidia App Filters working again. Not sure if any third party addons will have issues with this work around, so use this at your own risk!

X-ATC Chatter xpl file causes XP12 to crash
Hi Mark, I'm running the latest update and all of a sudden I get an X-ATC-Chatter.xpl crash to desktop every run, if I remove the xpl file from the 64 folder XP12 loads up just fine.

Glass Out is here!
Yep, I run a full flight deck and I'm running the pmdg 738, only gauge I can't pop out is the standby RMI. Here I used a script for the displays, but that's not needed anymore, just run the client/server setup. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ul1ZhRH_UT8

X-World Pro - Q&A with the author...
You would think they would want to show off the new overall look of the new addition and not downgrade anything.

X-World Pro - Q&A with the author...
I get it myself, nothing difficult to understand. But I wonder... Is it best to show off the product as you would see through most of the addon or do we want them to select the best they could find which may be in specific small areas that don't necessarily represent the entire package, then when purchased most that don't know any better would be disappointed.
