After having it collect dust on my shelf since November, I reinstalled FSX today in preparation for the release of SP1. I've been having so much fun with it (performance issues weren't nearly as bad as I remember) that I'm tempted to make the switch to FSX permanent.However, I am still having a few of issues that perhaps someone can help me resolve:1) I'm unable to get window reflections in VC in most cockpits. They appear in FSX's default helicopter and glider, but not in the Cessna 172, where I'd really like it.2) At a certain altitude (maybe 8,000 ft.) everything gets shrouded in a hazy, translucent white cloud cover, even if I've set the weather to clear. Is this normal?3) No scenery is visible in the top-down view. Just my plane, crosshairs, and a light blue screen.Any pointers would be appreciated.Thanks,Charlie

Is there a mod out there that will add reflections/smudges/bug stains to windows of either the default Cessna 172 or Flight One's 172 in VC mode? I'm looking for anything that would help give the sense that I'm actually looking through windows while flying.Any pointers would be appreciated.Thanks,Charlie

Hi all,I'm trying to install the demo of VoxATC, but the installer gives me the error message "No Flight Simulator Installed."The installer doesn't give the option to specify where my FS9 folder is. I've got FS9 located on a different partition than my OS.Any tips for fixing this problem would be greatly appreciated.Thanks,Charlie

Thanks Mike

Hi all,Is there an easy way (or barring that, any way) to get passenger models to appear in VC mode when flying a standard Cessna 172?Thanks, and Happy Easter.Charlie Chew

Great site. Thanks for the heads up.

I do most of my flying around the Toronto/Hamilton/Niagara area, thanks mostly to the terrific work of FlightOntario.I'm looking to spread my wings a bit, though. Any suggestions for great places to fly in other parts of the world? Picking new locales when you've got 24,000 airports to choose from can be a bit overwhelming.Thanks.

Hi everybody. I'm new to avsim. My apologies if this has already been covered 30 million times:The needles on my gauges in VC seem to be refreshing only about twice a second, but I'm pulling about 20 FPS.Is this a common problem in FSX?CC
