Thanks for suggestion. Maybe that is causing my problem with plan-G. Getting all the info from the simulator but chart background is BLUE. Have used this software now for years and never a prob. with it. This blue map screen only started a week or so ago. Tried on another PC but same thing. Looks like will be trying another moving map software cheers Richard

OK. I have read enough about VirtualPilot3d. Thanks for all your info Guys, Will disregard their emails and offers and keep flying FSX on my home cockpit. Thanks again cheers

Hi all, Has anybody heard,seen,tried or bought a FSIM called VirtualPilot3d? I had a looksee on their Webside and was very impressed. But B4 anythng else I like to hear possible comments, good or bad, from people familiar with this particular Sim. Their web address is VirtualPilot3d.com cheers Richard

Just to continue this small problem. I have gone back to v. 2.92 and all OK. Still wanting to use the updated gauges in 2.93. So Tried a few things. The last was leaving v. 2.92 on the main PC(server) and installing 2.93 on the Client(gauges). No changes in the Networking. Been flying for a few days now and all gauges responding just fine, so no stopping of a few gauges anymore. Will keep an eye on this and hope this will hopefully solve my little problem. cheers Richard

Not to worry Mate, Thanks for showing interest in my questions. I just go back a version which worked just fine and I do like flying with simplugins gauges. Cheers Richard

Hi OK, there seem to be no solution to my problem. I Just have to revert back to v. 2.92 Cheers Richard

Thanks for come back on this, appreciated, Nope, no networking problems As mentioned, all instruments working ok at start up and during flights. But intermittently some gauges do not respond to changes during flight eg RPM not responding to increase or decrease of throttle. Clock stops running in comparison to FSX clock. Needing a restart on the second PC of the panelbuilder prog.(Operation-Start) to rectify this. NO error messages As far as my setup, nothing changed but the installation or upgrade to v.2.93 Thanks Richard

Hi all, Cannot find any related topics so here goes. Used v 2.92 and no problems with instruments when flying (FSX using 2 networked PCs). After upgrade to 2.93 all looked fine but then found that some times some of the instruments eg clock, Alt,HSI and some other ones, stop working.I have to close the prog and restart to make them working again. Otherwise all working fine. Just a nuisance when some instrmnts stop working on a final (lucky it is a Sim). Hope some Guru can give me some advise. Thanks an cheers from Down Under Richard

Hi Back from being away. Thanks for info re problem. will check and see and try again also re subnet. Do not want to fiddle too much with settings as my network is running just fine right now with server and client and software talking to each other. Happy flying in 2014

Thanks Server and Client connected direct via cross-over cable, no router in this set-up. ​Both have an assigned IP address and Ping just fine so both talk to each other. Have other Progs on Client who need to communicate with the server and work fine with those assigned IP addresses. So I do not understand to set static addresses on both seeing both PCs already communicate to each other.

Hi all, Sorry to but-in like this but I aloso have a problem with panel builder gauges not reacting to FSX although SimPlugin indicates connected to FSX. Set-Up is 2 PCs (Server and Client).Win7 64 on both. Have AiviaSoft EFB running on Client via SimConnect and also Plan-G via FSUIPC no problems. Client has 3 Monitors one of them is for gauges. Have left configs on both as configured on the Demo, Demo version is 2.61. Could this be related to an upgrade or network problem. Server and Client networked via Cat5 cable and Ping ok both ways. Botth have different IP address. It will be a shame if due to an unknown reason I could not use this nice program. Thanks and cheers Richard

Thanks Scot, Appreciate the comment and explenation. But no matter what I picked, whether system time or not. As soon as I create a flight from a country that differs in time from my home location FSX changes the time to that country. If daylight in my home and night time where I want to create a flight from, on startup after a few seconds FSX will go to night time, that is local time of country of origin. I have tried changing things thru the Sims setup and fsx.cfg to no avail. However I have been trying things out and I might have found the culprit that is doing this. I am not sure yet but still checking things out. I might have found the culprit that keeps changing the time to the country of origins local time. I will keep on testing. Thanks anyways for you input, appreciate it. Cheers for now Richard

Hi all, Since a few days ago I am unable to set a picked local time on locations I wanted to fly from. After settting the time I wanted to take off FSX returns the time to the local AP time(depending on Country). Have ticked System time in the General specs. Checked FSX.cfg and in the [sim] header time is ticked 1(Sys time). However setting it to zero does not make any diff. In my backed up cfg file system time is also on and had no problems until a few days ago. Running Win7 Ultimate. What have I done wrong or what can I do to rectify this problem. Thanks Richard

Hi again, First of all thanks for the support from some on my unclear post title and waisting peoples time. As noted in my first post that I mentioned not being sure wether this was the right section and just followed the post heading already available, upper case or no upper case. How critical can one get. Hey guys, is this not supposedly to be a forum for Simmers being conducted in a friendly manner to assist in problems or questions? Or is it more important to follow the rules for 100 percent and absolutely NO mistakes? Well pardon me for the mistakes and although I have been with AVSIM and forums for 5 years, that does not mean that I follow it every second of the day and again pardon my ignorance. What is next, will people start complaining about the improper wording, spelling etc of the English language as well. Come on Guys, lets try and help instead of criticize on how to conduct a forum. If mistakes do happen, one can surely advise that individual in a proper and friendly manner without digging into histories etc. Thank you Mickel re REX and Au muchly appreciated. By the way it should read FScene4(total), still advertised on AVSIM main page. Well, enough said, hope this will be the end of this section, so thanks again all and cheers for now. Richard

Hi all, do not know whether this is the right section for my post, but the title of "Which is better" seems sort of appropriate for my question. Just installed a new HDD and installed FSX fresh including all SP's and acceleration software. All systems go as they say, including my Garmen GNS500W. One glitch though, Scenery etc are the FSX defaults. My question is this, I have FSceneTotal, REX2 with Overdrive and ORBX FTX Aus SP3. Is installing all of them an overkill? I know you can switch back to FSX default with FTX sp3, but what about the other two. I believe one is scenery objects and the other ground textures. But I am not sure about this. I just do not want to overload FSX with ad-ons if they represent the same things. Can anybody give me some hints here, thanks. Running i7 920, 6g RAM, GTX 560ti

Getting to be an Old Fart was definately not my idea, Paul. Am trying to live with it anyways..cheers

Thanks Jim, you guys are great. will have a looksee for those MSVs. Done some of the suggestionns Paul and you posted, hopefully getting there. You see years ago all this would have been much clearer to me regarding hardware, and software problems. when years went by the old grey matter started to get cloudy, so pardon me if I sometimes do not get it or sound ignorant. Sorry guys but that's Life I guess.Still will keep on trying and who knows.Thanks again and cheers for nowRichard

Wow, you guys are something. Let me first thank the lot of you for those possible solutions to my probs.First of all Jim, my UAC has been disabled for a while now so starting FSX ad an Admin no change. And indeed using just one or even 2 screens gives me errorless flying but that is not what I have built my cockpt for. I have 3 mons for left,front and right views and on for the RXP garmen GPS.(too much Load?)So actually on my server C: drive i am running WIN7, REX2, My tfc 2010 and FSscene all. My FPS runnig around 15 to 20.So taking your advice Jim I will check out the dotnet framework stuff, My system shows v.2.05, v.3.0, v.3.5 and v.4.03, in the installed programs there are Net framework 1.1, 4 client profile and 4 extended. As far as the MVCs, again showing 2005,(64) 2008 (64), so looks like I am missing 2010.And Paul thanks for the three points stated. So it looks like I am in for a long haul to clear and understand all of that but I will try.As far as my drives, C drive as stated before and FSX is running on its own drive the G: drive and add-ons that can not be networked like RXP GPS.So the virtual memory bit is that for the C or G drive? And my FSUIPC version is 4.75 so I will go and get 4.81 thanks for that.OK you guys, I will try and do all the things suggested while wishing you all a very good day and cheers for nowRichard.

Thanks a lot Jim, have gone and had a look-see as suggested. Most of the things I have done already if not more.Tried diff fsx.cfg files etc etc. Now I know my gear is not, what people would say, a topline gaming pc, but I have read posts of guys with high end systems still battling the OOM problem. I was just thinking of upgrading my gear but with those guys and their top gear still battling the OOMs, I wonder. I am getting OOM just flying over average scenery areas. Suggestions of turning down this turning down that etc etc. I wonder why have a top machine if you still have to turn down your sliders to 50 percent or less to not get OOM or better FPS.Yet I also read posts where people claiming to have all their sliders at full blast with a top PC.Who knows, I am afraid I am loosing my interest in trying to do a bit of Non-Error flying.BTW I am also getting another, yes another error message occasionally, on top of all the other ones and it goes like this"Unhadled exeption has occurred in your apps. If you click continue the apps will ignore the error and will continue. If you click quit the apps will close immediately."Then it has something about enabling JIT debugging. How do you do that.Looks like besides money to by the good gear you also have to be a Guru in IT.Sorry to bother you with all this Jim and others reading this. But many thanks for the help so far much appreciated.Have a nice day and cheers for nowRichard

Thanks for that mate but unfortunately I have to run things full screen. You see am running 4 monitors, two to the vid card and two connected via DVI to USB adapters and in windows mode those extra mon only show eighter black immages or immages but non operative. In full screen all 4 monitors running just fine as Win7 lets you move windows in full screen mode.Thanks anyways and cheersRichard Hi and thanks for comeback. I have done all that mate. Not running FSX full bore, drivers all up to date and not much add-ons at that and even not using add-ons like REX2 or FSScne total and Minimum AI stuff, it is still unstable.Thanks anyways and cheersRichard

Hi Guys/Gals,I am recently getting errer messages that makes me wonder why. After flying for sometimes hours, sometimes half an hour and sometimes just after 10 minutes. FSX just freezes, sound still going and sometimes add-ons on a networked PC are also still going.The two error messages popping up are 1. Your PC ran out of memory, restart FSX with different graphic, scenery and traffic settings. 2. Unhandeled exception has occurred. Exception from HResult:0xC000014B.What is causing these errors?Running Win7 64bit, 6 Gig DDr3 Corsair RAM, GTX560ti graphics and P6T Assus Mobo, i7-960 @ 3.2Ghz.Any suggestions muchly appreciatedcheersRichard

Thanks a lot for info much appreciated. Will have a look-see at Bojote tool, you never know.Are you still running the i7-920 or changed to a new generation cpu? My cooler is a Zalman CNPS9500 Ultra quiet copper but I never attempted to do some over-clocking in case I stuff things up.Yep I am thinking upgrading the graphics card but just have to know which one fits the P6T Mobo. Not sure whether the GTX560ti will be ok for the slots on the Mobo.Anuways back to trying things out instead of enjoying flying the SIM. Or maybe the new upcoming X-Plane Global?cheersRichard

G'day you Guys,Nice to see some come back on my probs. Thanks.First what and where can I get hold on Nicks and Bojote settings or what are they in short in FSX.cfg right?My chip is already overclocked to what it is. Have the limiter set to 30, so now have to add affinitymask to 14 and look see.Knowing all the stuff I went thru after changing to Win7, it most likely won't do a thing, but you never know.If my setup is considered a slow pc how can I improve it. Any suggestions on Hardware?Secondly, nice to know that the Win7 aero thing is normal. Except in my case, using two extra monitors running on USB to DVI adapters with win7 drivers, I have to use the control panel trouble shooter to have those two monitors showing the graphics otherwise they are just black and non active.It is a pain but the only way to get pics on those extra screens.And topping it up, if I get things sort of going, my FPS is just about 4 to 5 and impossible to fly or do anything.Thanks again guys, wil catch ye later cheersRichard

OK no answers/solutions to my problems I see. OK then I have another question.I am running Win7 ultimate 64bit, FSX with adons, MT2010, Rex2 etc.on multi monitorsMy hardware is Asus Mobo P6T de Luxe, Intel i7-960 3.20Ghz (old generation intel) and NvidiaGTX285 1G memory and 4G main RAM.Can anybody advise me what to upgrade to run the software mentioned with reasonable FPS? This might be a solutions to the problems I am having as mentioned in my other post.CheersRichard
