Ah - the missing piece of the puzzle was to copy the Flight One Software folder from FSX into Prepar3D and copy (from FSX to Prepar3D in the users\username\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v2\) and edit the exe.xml file to 'point' to the UT2services.exe file

Oops - thanks.

Very many thanks for that. :smile:

I'm not that clever with how to do this. Can someone give a step by step please? Thanks very much Graham

As a Mac user (I took the step in 2011) one of the first things I did was to install Bootcamp and Windows 7 so that FSX would run on it. I did look at X Plane but just couldn't bring myself to abandon FSX.

Having been a 'nay sayer' on the new format - I have to say that the new file library format stinks. Very disappointing having to faff around with gear wheels and the like - the old format was so simple I didn't have to find a topic in the forum to find out how to do a simple search. Is this a way for AVSIM to commit suicide I wonder? They are certainly going the right way about it.

I thought that after the last fiasco that Avsim had learned a lesson. Clearly not but hey - I'll figure a way around it. I'm guessing we all want different things from Avsim and it just so happens that mine don't work easily with the new format. I shall persist but I'm afraid I'm one of the nay sayers.

Have to agree - what a pile of doo doo. Such a shame as clearly there has been a considerable amount of (misguided?) work here.

Thanks Opa - that's the very one I was after - much appreciated :(

Thanks for the reply Alan - but that wasn't the thing I had in mind - I already have this installed.

I used to have a super little aircraft texture bmp viewer which used to pop up the texture if I clicked the texture in the aircraft texture folder - I don't want to edit it - just to see what it is. Can anyone remember/point me at the file in question please?Thanks

As Geri is 65 tomorrow I'm sure she'd be most flattered to be called a 'chick' :)Graham

I have the same or similar issue - used to be able to return the following day and not have to log in - now I have to log in EVERY time. Using Firefox 3.0.5.Thanks

OK thanks for the reply - must be Ultimate Traffic X then.

Is there a maximum number of Fltsim entries permitted in the aircraft.cfg file?I use Ultimate Traffic X and some of my aircraft.cfg files now have in excess of 200 entries which seems to be about the limit that Ultimate Traffic X can 'see'. But I don't know if FSX can 'see' those over the maximum number (assuming there is a maximum and that it's not just Ultimate Traffic X at fault).Thanks
