About Me
Retired from the Canadian federal public service after devoting 35 years to the field of information management. Longtime user of FSX then moved to FSXSE and P3D until I adopted XP10 and more recently XP11. No intention of moving back especially now that high-end addons are available in the aircraft, camera and environment categories not to mention the excellent and free addons available from very talented and generous community members.

Conteplating Buying / Using Pilot2ATC
Jean-Jacques replied to Skyseek's topic in Pilot2ATC Users Forum
You don't need any additional software to be able to use your mouse or joystick and get sound from both computers. The 'Client' computer has its own mouse and usually its own sound system. But if you want to have sound from the Client computer coming out of the Server sound system, simply run an audio cable from the Audio Out of the Client to the Audio In of the Server. This is great when you want sound from the Client to be recorded during the recording of videos on the flightsim computer, the Server. The previous post you make reference to might have been pointing to 'Multiplicity', a utility which allows the use of one mouse and the sharing of sound between computers. Nice but not necessary. Google it! JJ -
Conteplating Buying / Using Pilot2ATC
Jean-Jacques replied to Skyseek's topic in Pilot2ATC Users Forum
Video . . . hmmm . . . You're already running a networked setup. Why not download the free trial and install it on your client computer! Much better than a video. You won't regret it. I run my copy in a networked environment. No issues whatsoever. Cheers, JJ -
quote name="ryanbatcund" post="3459606" timestamp="1469850067"]The routing changes are because socal is so busy they use the TEC route system. The routes are almost always published and once you file that, you'll get that 99% of the time. PE tries to simulate the busy socal airspace so that's probably why you didn't get the route you wanted. I can understand the part about small area of coverage - but virtually every type of airspace is contained in ZLA (los angeles center) so if you're flying GA there's plenty of miles to explore. I agree though it is intended for RW pilots wanting to sharpen up their skills or new rw pilots who need more mic time. Still I've yet to find a more realistic service for the flightsim world. Pilot2atc v2 might be an interesting alternative. http://pilot2atc.com/V2Downloads JJ

Very much enjoyed both videos which are very informative. Thank you. JJ -
"And a real photo of Norway for comparison. I'll let the viewers decide if X-Plane depiction is underwhelming/woeful:" Murmur, Those shots of X-Plane's rendition are spectacular. Why such negativity about a simulator capable of delivering such a convincing environment to simulate flight! JJ

Ha ha! Now I may win the lottery!

I inadvertently pressed the green arrow below your post which changed the numeric box from 0 to 1. I'm sorry but I don't know the purpose of the numeric value. If it means something negative, please ignore. If it helps wining the lottery, then I hope you win JJ

For ATC, check version 2 of Pilot2ATC. Free 10-day trial. http://pilot2atc.com/V2Downloads JJ -
X-Plane noob - first questions
Jean-Jacques replied to swiesma's topic in The X-Plane General Discussions Forum
Regarding X-Plane's camera system, it is reasonably good but if you want an advanced camera utility, check X-Camera available at https://www.stickandrudderstudios.com/. The free version offers the user a good flavour of the utility's capabilities while the donation-ware version unlocks all the more advanced features. JJ -

Is my RAM OK?
Jean-Jacques replied to Ron Attwood's topic in System Hardware: PC | MOBO | RAM | CPU | HDD | SSD | PSU etc
. . . and "hight" should read "height"! I hadn't taken all my pills when I wrote that this morning! JJ -

Ron, I had a Noctua NH D-14 which I replaced with a Corsair liquid cooler because I was restricted to using low-profile RAM. Check the hight clearance. JJ -
EZdok Camera not cycling through views for all aircraft
Jean-Jacques replied to Redglyph's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
If you've already read the manual, you may want to re-read again. For example, numeric keys 1, 2, and 3 are reserved for specific functions, i.e., numeric key 1 accellerates movement forward, backwards, etc., number 2 activates and deactivates the save function, etc. As Philip has stated above, the 'C' (Cycle) turns cycling of cameras ON and OFF. Once you get your head around the functions, functionality is rather simple. JJ
