  1. Hey everyone.I stumbled across this a while ago, I was wondering if it really works? Most of the "boosters" I've had don't usually do anythin.http://www.techspot.com/downloads/4842-game-booster.htmlThanks!
  2. I know what you mean, but unfortunately, the Left/Right Side Window view cameras are placed at a point in the exterior which looks like you are viewing the wings from the interior, so the exterior soundset is used. I don't know if an addon such as Active Camera or Walk and Follow can create wing views from the interior. The only solution I've found is to set your wing view from the virtual cockpit view, which isn't that useful as you can only view one side, and if you have a plane which has a nicely detailed VC that you want to fly in, you'll have to give up flying in that VC.Hope that made sense, too! :( Cheers.
  3. Bob's link will be immensely helpful. Editvoicepack is one of the best enhancements to FSX, IMHO. You'll enjoy it, trust me. It updates FS with a countless number of airlines.
  4. Yes, Happy 4th of July to all! :( Gonna go set off a few more of my firecrackers and fireworks now :( :(
  5. Agreed, I didn't like the arcade-style/mini-game missions at all, they aren't focusing much on the commercial aspect of it anymore. I do love the "managing the airline" and "buy and sell things" idea though!What really worried me is that they mentioned online gaming too much, which is my worst fear. I want to keep it a standalone game, not an online community all of a sudden.
  6. Yeah it includes questions like "what is important to you in a flight simulator" and questions like "what if this activity was in the game" and "what are your aviation interests".I'm thrilled!
  7. I got this too!!! Here comes FS11?
  8. Well first off, I know this has been repeated but I hope there'll BE an FSvNext!OK, but when there is, I'd like to see:-More realistic lighting. Enough with lights being giant puffballs. I'd like to see a realistic pinpoint of light on the end of my wings and on my plane. During night taxiing, I want to see my lights--not just the landing lights--light up the ground. When I fly through a cloud, which should be made true 3D (i.e., giving the cloud an internal space), I want to see my strobes light up the cloud. And burnt out lights--in FS98 you could set realism to burn out the planes lights!Also better ground and city lighting. I remember in FS98 where you could see street lights as tiny orange pinpoints of light. Let's make this better in FSnext, and let's eliminate the splotches of light on the scenery instead.-More ground/airport vehicle-to-plane interaction. I would like to see the fuel truck actually come to the plane. Let's see the catering truck service my plane, or watch the bus come and pick up passengers, which brings me to;-PASSENGERS!!! TS2 had a great platform for 3D passengers and I'd like to see this in the next FS version. I want to see passengers in the airport terminal through the windows, and see them in the jetway. I would like to be able to walk about my virtual cabin and see passengers doing all kinds of activities, like sleeping, watching a movie, having refreshments, etc. So 3D passengers and FSPassengers-like passenger interaction would be nice.-No more popping autogen. A new game engine is due.-True to life road, landmark, coastline, and scenery-to-ground textures alignment. I would like to be able to trace the route from the airport to Denver downtown, or possibly to my house from the airport as I know it in real life.-Career mode. Enough said.-I don't want to start in my plane. Instead bring me to a screen where I file my flight plan, and set up my flight. Delays are possible due to weather, or cancellations as well. When the time is right to board the plane and enter the cockpit, let there be a foot mode where I can not only walk into my plane from the jetway, but walk among the airport terminals and their shops, walk among my cabin, walk around my Cessna to give it its pre-flight inspection.-More advanced planes, like 787, A380, etc. Better stock soundsets from inside and outside.-Better weather--do tornadoes and hurricanes exist in FSX? Sandstorms? Dust devils? etc.?-More carrier ops and missions.I'm outta breath here! :( :( But yeah, so there you have it!
  9. Hi all,I downloaded POSKY's SAS 737-600 and noticed it's missing the center fuel tank. Is this how the plane is in real life, or is this a glitch in the POSKY model? If so, how can I fix it?Thanks!
  10. If you would like stunning light visuals, even with REX, try looking up "Airport Light Environment". It was here on the AVSIM Library but since that's down you should be able fo find it on Flightsim.com and similar. I'm really glad I downloaded it. I might upload some pictures later.
  11. Hi all,Out of nowhere, my Rivatuner installation all of a sudden cannot detect supported display drivers, and I no longer can tweak my video card. I have the 185.85 drivers, does anyone know if this driver is supported by Rivatuner?Thanks!
  12. Hi folks,I've always been wondering, how is cruising altitude determined? All I know is something about the FL being odd-numbered if you're flying west and even-numbered if you're flying east. Are there any other factors? For example, in an Airbus A319, what would be the ideal cruising altitude between Lisbon (LPPT) and Funchal, Madeira (LPMA) (About a 1.2 hour flight)?Thanks!
  13. I do know that in real life torque causes the plane to sway, but not as exaggerated as in FSX. On a real world flight in a Boeing 777, they had a nose camera set up, and the aircraft was having a tough time staying on the line, moving left and right all over the place. So it could be the reality settings, and not your controls.But the reality settings sliders all the way to the right over-exaggerate the effect. Anyone know the ideal setting?
  14. Thanks for your reply,I tried that and it still didn't work. This never used to happen before, all the views and fuel that I saved with the flight stayed that way when I loaded it up again. Ever since I downloaded the new ENB HDR addon, this has been happening. Is this a known issue with this DLL?I doubt even a 777-200LR can fly Dubai-Atlanta with just 18% fuel :( :( Thanks again.
  15. Everytime I load a saved flight, my views that I configured earlier reset themselves to the stock camera positions, and the fuel that I had loaded earlier all of a sudden resets to the stock cold & dark fuel configuration (center tank at 100% -- 18% fuel total). I'm not sure what is causing it, however it started happening when I downloaded the ENB HDR addon. This and REX are the only major addons I have. Is this a known issue and is there a fix for it?Thanks!
  16. That's interesting, are you using any other view utility? Also check your controls menu. I can't access FSX right now, but as soon as I can I'll let you know which command to look for.Let me know how if it works out.
  17. If you want smaller increments, you should try clicking on the view (just to make sure the view is selected, not some other control by accident), and use SHIFT and then press + or -. This will zoom in/out respectively in VERY small increments.
  18. Agree that this add-on has a bit of a cost.I'm really liking Bert's and Randall's settings, only I can't tell the differences and I can't determine which is better. A little help??? :( Thanks!
  19. I know it's a matter of personal taste, but what are the most realistic settings posted in this thread? KTH090 and Jeroen have some pretty good ones.
  20. What a great enhancement! Running an 8800 GT here with no white screen. The default settings are a little too strong but with a bit of tweaking I'm sure we'll have a great looking FSX. Has anyone tried all tweaks listed in this thread and is it possible to pick out the best one? I can't use FSX as of this moment.Great add-on!
  21. This happens to me too, although it never used to. All of a sudden one day it started "dinging" when I selected an aircraft and to this day I don't know how to stop it. I just mute my speakers until I get into the simulation. I don't find it too annoying however it would be nice to get rid of it.
  22. Hi UlfB,Problem solved! Deactivating the ToolTips seemed to do it. Thanks a bunch! Any ideas on what causes this weird phenomena with ToolTips on?Thanks!PS, it's Vista with DX9.
  23. Hi UlfB,Thanks for the reply, I will try that out and see how it goes!
  24. Hello all,When I fly, I like to fly in various views, like all of us. When I switch the view to the 2D Cockpit view and try to manipulate the controls, the screen momentarily freezes, flickers bright white (sometimes I catch a quick glance of the previous view/window), and then will stay in the Cockpit view. I know it's not my monitor, it's in the game. How do I get rid of this flickering?Thanks.
  25. Including large Boeings and Airbuses and Bombardiers, etc.?Thanks for the replies guys!
