  1. Alan, if you go to your IFLY config files and set joystick sensitivity to 100000 or something like that you can knock your yoke and joystick and it won't come out of VNAV, works for FS9 anyway.Not sure of the FSX folder setup but in FS9 its in the main folder under Ifly >737NG > MyConfigHope this helps.. :(
  2. Rob,There are 2 lines in the panel cfg addition you make to the panel to do with toebrakes, off hand I have not the full details on me, but check you have one of the lines disabled.I know one of the options are if you have pedals...All is in the readme though.. :(
  3. I am just wondering if I bought a different version than some people here.One of the biggest flaws of the product was the awful landclass that made everything look like the sahara desert. Screenshots followed with airports surrounded by sand and TBH was absolutely shocking.A couple of weeks later some guy did some redone texture files to improve the situation. This is something that MS did come out and say they made an error with and this is something they SHOULD have addresed with a patch. I had to purchase GEX in the end to make it bearable.Apart from that I can run it OK now as I upgraded my PC to an AMD 6core but I still don't trust it as stable platform when doing long hauls hence why I have stuck with FS9, not sure why its just me I suppose. Sales may have been good but I doubt that the numbers that run it solidly are somewhat different.
  4. Thanks Craig,I just love Gary's scenery, pure quality :(

    FS9

    Good change there David.For me its not so simple, what I do know is that future FS titles will never be the same again and until the format is known it is very difficult to say.I go into the Flight forum a few times, and hope that some things I read will never materialise in the next version. The slightest mention of the word LIVE and XBOX has me running for cover :(
  6. Bryan, that is an interesting comment, and when you think about it and listen on the Ifly forums, the same thing echoes from there too.I am also one of your customers who bought the Ifly version, and will continue to buy for FS9 as long as the products interest me. This one also gets lost sometimes when companies develop addons without first doing a little research with the vey people who are actually going to purchase it.Depending on where you read there is not a market for FS9 anymore but I am happy that another major developer has stated that FS9 sales are holding up.Anyway I guess we will have the same debate when Flight comes out. :rolleyes:My FS9 has never looked better

    FS9

    I have had to set the path to FS9 again but this is easy if you use the tool from Flight 1. I have also had occasions when some of my payware has asked again for activation. This all depends on your FS9 setup of course. :(
  8. Thanks Bryan for the explanation and I see what you mean.I hope you do one for voice for Ifly, however the button one is great also.. +1 money ready :(
  9. Hello Bryan,Good news on the Ifly, can't wait to get this one.I have just have one question, what influences your decision to make a button control opposed to a voice control version, in particular the ifly version.I have 2 voice control ones now, and they are excellent in all aspects.ThanksSteve
  10. Hi Rob,Good post, and I do agree with you to some extent, however I do have to diasgree with the FS Commander 9 issue. I have it networked fine with FSX on the other PC. Whilst it can be touchy sometimes, it does work.I read most reviews, and they do not normally sway me apart from the one the other day on the E-jets V2, which is probably one of the only ones that I have read that is tempting me to get it.. :( the review was well written in my opinion and full of detail. I guess it depends on who does the review and the glitches they get, it is difficult to get a balance. It is also important that reviews are only based on the reviewers experience and whilst it may inform generally about the product, I tend to normally read up on forums after the review.Having said all that, I do feel there is sometimes a sense of holding back on some reviews in regards to issues like pricing and sometimes it would be beneficial to compare similar products to maintain a little sense of competition in that regard.
  11. I can confirm not working in the UK too :( I only realised today how dependant I am on ASE now its not working.... :(
  12. Very nice ideed, looking forward to it :(
  13. I might indeed wait for these chips to come out, thanks for the info I would like to install a little bit of future proof in there, and as I said FSX is pretty vanilla at the moment, so I need some headroom when the adddons start getting installed.Again, thanks for the info on the AMD
  14. Hi,I am currently running the following hardware :Asus M3ANvidia GTS250 PNYAMD Athlon X2 6400+ OC @ 3.52 running VCore at 1.444gb 800Mz Ram OCZ I think :biggrin:H50 Cooler from CorsairHAF 922 Case from CoolermasterWin7 X64 Home Edition I am really a FS9 player and it was not until recently I started to delve back into FSX following Bojote's FSX Tuning Tool, prior to this FSX was running OK without my overclock but the minute I put UK2000 scenery for Heathow V2 on, it crawled and stuttered and probably did everything else too apart from run nice.Since I have used this tool and also with the FPS Limiter running alongside at 30FPS solid, the experience has been quite different and I wanted to pick people's brains on the way forward from here.Ok, my FSX is vanilla with most of the UK2000 scenery on it, Wilco Ejets and ASE running as well ( not bothered to install anything else yet)I am thinking about upgrading but I am still undecided wether to go with AMD x6s or Intel I7, I know the majority of posts will advise me to go for Intel and what is making me think twice before plumping for Intel is the performance I am getting now on this pretty low system as far as FSX is concerned. I have spent a lot of time on the forums this weekend studying the performance posts and this has only made me more confused about what to go for.I see users on I7s with lower framerates and less fluid performance than I am getting, on the other hand I see with users with more. The system I use has nothing but FS9 and FSX ( with Addons) on it plus a few benchmarking tools, if any addon can run on WideFS then it does so on my other 3 PCS.The theory that FSX runs different on every CPU is starting to ring true with, and it obviously is in my case. It is true that I don't have UT, REX or GEX on it at the moment, as I have not purchased it yet, so I appreciate there will be many calls that will say "wait until you get that on" but my point is that my current hardware should not be running it this well or should it ?.I really do not want to purchase an expensive I7 when I can get an AMD and spend a bit more on the video card and better hard drive and only acheive a few more frames, I would be happy with only 40+
  15. Im sorry but there is nothing to discuss.

    The board have made their decision, I simply cannot reverse it.

    I am very sorry
