AirbusA340300

ummm, with all due respect, YOU have no idea what you are talking aboutAdam

Failures always keep pilots on edge. when i am flying a c152 in real life on a x country or training flight, there's always that thought, what if something goes wrong? and i am constantly on the lookout for any indication of a problem. flight sim has come a long way since i started with FS2000, but there is one thing that hasnt changed, and that is the predictability. i know that in the manuals for the MD-11 and 744, and also for the LD767, it gives the proper techniques and procedures to do things. and when it comes to engines, the manuals say to follow procedure and be careful of a hot start and such. and also to moniter for fuel leaks. why? i know i will never have a fuel leak. all that it all pointless, because i know that no matter what i do, the engine will start fine, and unless i program a failure, i know that the flight will go off without a hitch and i can even skip or totally mess up some procedures and everything will still more than likely be finei know i know, PMDG has a random failures module, but the most you can set it too is 1 failure every 10 hours, and im sure that modern airliner failure rates are higher than that. thats the one thing that i like about the leonardo md-80, the engine can have a hot start, and if you give it too much power, the engine will get damaged, and also the failure rate is something like 1 in a 1000 hours. what i would like PMDG to do is to give the user the option to set the failure rate to a realistic probability, and also allow for hot starts, or compressor stalls, a fuel leak ect ect. and really make the pilots care after the aircraft and always be on the lookout for any failures, and to take the boring out of flying.adam

so she is in fact a real person hahaadam

Does anyone know if there is a EKCH in the works for FSX? I must say, the default FSX one isnt bad, but it could use some improvements. thanksadam

thanks for the info. i dont plan on editing my own airports, just downloading. i was just wondering if you still download AFCADs for FSX or something else to get the proper AIadam

I just downloaded a bunch of packages from WOAI and was wondering, how do i remove the default AI traffic? and also, i have been away from FS for a while and just got back into it with FSX, i know that afcad doesnt work with FSX, so what do you use instead? thanksadam

IIRC they where supposed to release one with the 744, dont know what ever happend with thatadam

i have had the md-11 for fsx for a while now and this has been bugging me since i got it, just never got around to asking. but does anyone else have the problem where at alot of airports, when selecting a pushing and turning either left or right, the minimum distance allowed is still to much and you end up getting pushed back to far? and this problem also occurs with the leveld 767 and an md-80 i have. so am i just doing something wrong, or is this some kind of limitation? thanksadam

i have my system set up as per nick's topic. the numbers i gave are for the vc, in 2d frames are much higheradam

the frames not that great. in fsx, with the Md-11, i get roughly 20 frames on TO, 35-45 in cruise, and 15-20 on approach. and in the md-80, i get like 15 on TO, 25 in cruise, and 15-20 on approach. the frame rates are very weird in the md-80, at times i will get mid teens in cruise, then like mid to high 20s, and on approach, i sometimes get better frames than in cruise. and also, in external view, i rarely see it go above 30, while in the md-11 i get 50s and 60s. once again, this is in FSX, i7 940 at 2.93, GTX260, 4gb of ramadam

i can also highly recommend the leonardo md-80. i just got it today and wow, very impressed. it took me a while just to get the engines started haha. if u like highly complex airliners, then this is one to get. one thing though, the vc is very hard on the frames. i only get like 25 in cruise, and in the pmdg md-11 i get like 35. and i fly FSXadam

i got it all fixed, when i uninstalled the program, it left the hifi folder in my Appdata folder. so i manually deleted it and reinstalled, and it all works nowadam

how do i completely reset my computer? do i just pop in my windows cd and reinstall everything? thanksadam
