Just posted on ORBX forum here: https://orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/146827-carenado-vc-panel-and-orbx-telluride-possible-interference/

I agree with Bert, but I have to note that also deactivating Telluride scenery , Orbx libraries and objectflow addon, the problem was still present . No changes also after upgrading video drivers and after uninstalling and fresh installing the Carenado airplanes .

After installing ORBX Telluride scenery in my P3DV4.0 (by FTX Central 3) I noted that Bonanza (P3DV4 default) vc panel textures were corrupted with a mixing of 2d and 3d images, moreover I had frequent CTD loading some Carenado planes (Phenom300, Navajo, C90, H850XP); this problems were never before ORBX Telluride installation. After lowering the grass detail level and other details using Telluride control panel, this problems were solved completely and everything returned to normal, no more CTD. In my modest opinion this interference is not fortuitous, connected maybe to an overloading of video card or other possible texture rendering interferences in my system. It would be interesting to know if other customers have had similar problems. Thanks, GR My specs: I7 6700K, 16 GB RAM, NVIDIA GTX 760 2GB, 2 x SSD .

Awesome! and a Happy New Year to all the fsimmer community! sq111

Hi, thanks for the quick update, just a question: the updating process is automatic or it's necessary to reinstall VFXC ?

It seems to me that the problem is not install snow&rain alone, if you install rain&snow + some effects, the new precipitfx snow is visible and working well ! I hope this will help sq111

I've just downloaded the new VFX Central (after purchasing last year precipitfx v1.2 p3d license) but also for me is impossible to install snow textures in p3d v2.4, the old original ("terrible") textures are always there, any result also after the procedure indicated by Keven Menard, Clicking Direct Install and apply selected options makes nothing! In the textures folder the "new precipitfx textures" and the original p3d textures.bkp have the same date, I suppose that they are the same. Any suggestion? GR

Hi to all,I had the same problem: I can hopefully confirm your theory: the problem is inside the flightplan,if you try to make a simple flightplan (departure and arrival airports with runways only + waypoints) without SID and STAR , for beginning, and then you put your block fuel in the VASFMC, all is OK, then you can add without any problem your preferred SID & STAR and what else you want and all works! certainly the fuel remain the same, but this is for me the only way to go around this problem! Cheers Gian

another solution to the engine2 startup sound missing (maybe more realistic): edit with your notepad the sound.cfg (make a backup copy before) at the beginning and substitute the section: [sOUND_ENGINE] WITH THIS: (you can copy and paste and overwrite ONLY THIS SECTION "sound_engine") [sOUND_ENGINE] number_of_engines=2 ENG1_COMBUSTION=COMBUSTION.1.04 ENG1_STARTER=starter ENG1_COMBUSTION_START=combstart ENG1_SHUTDOWN=shutdown ENG1_JET_WHINE=NEX ENG1_PROP=PROP.1.01 ENG1_NON_COMBUSTION=NON_COMBUSTION.1.00 ENG2_COMBUSTION=COMBUSTION.1.04 //COMBUST1.0 ENG2_STARTER=starter //Start2 ENG2_COMBUSTION_START=combstart //Combstart2 ENG2_PROP=PROP.1.01 //PROP1.0 ENG2_SHUTDOWN=shutdown ENG2_JET_WHINE=NEX ENG2_NON_COMBUSTION=NON_COMBUSTION.1.00 I hope this solution can also work well !!! Good flight to all! SQUALO111

I remember that when I purchased CS C-130 (from SimMarket) I had similar difficulties with registration codes, in effect on the "old" CS support site, there was i file "activ_redirect" (batch file active on XP registry) that unlocked the SMcodes. I enclose here the file (please change the extension from .txt to .bat befor use), try it (it's unoffensive for the system), before start installation with SM.... codes.

try, if you didn't, also without SM as first characters!I don't have other ideas about this problem. Post another ticket on support!Perhaps other simmers on the forum can help you!Bye, GR - Italy>>be careful that if you purchased the bird from Simmarket>your>>codes must start with "SM" and then you put the code number>of>>CS!>>Try this if you didn't>>Bye:-roll >>Yeah,>I know.

be careful that if you purchased the bird from Simmarket your codes must start with "SM" and then you put the code number of CS!Try this if you didn'tBye:-roll

Hey guys, after dozens of e-mail with the CS support, after I sent the receipt of my credit card payment, I got finally the download link site directly from the support and they refund me the difference (2 Euros) between the indicated and charged amount.So I got it. Note that the "new" product (b757 block F) has some bugs, the most important is autobrake malfunction (self armed) and also some sudden complete block of FS (you must reboot). If you edit the two .air files and set autobrake=false all seems works well! (for now)Bye, G.R. - Italy ;-)

You were very lucky for your affair with Ukrainian people of CaptainSim, read my post and other opinion about CaptainSim on this topic!Greetings

Be careful on buying something on CaptainSim online shop.The story:Yesterday I lost my money:( for the new B757 block F upgrade. The site was under repair, but the transactions were permitted. I completed my transaction on line with credit card without any problem.:) At the end they assured that the codes for activation and the download site name will be delivered by e-mail immediately. I waited a lot of time but nothing arrived, so I contacted the support by e-mail and the answer was: CHECK SPAM FILTERS:(. I don't have any spam filter on my mail client and the administrator of my e-mail service confirmed that in his log there was only the e-mail from support, not any other mail from CaptainSim. Now I checked my credit card records with another surprise:(, the card was charged with 22.53 Euros instead of 19.90 Euros like indicated on the confirmation form; note that no other fees were indicated.I contacted again the support and the replay was "Sorry but we do not charge extra money" (also who does????) and also: "provide us with alternative e-mail address". I did it, but nothing until now arrived at any of my e-addresses. I contacted again the support telling my great disappointment and asking for the refund of the amount charged on my credit card, but they disappeared. No more replay at all, no codes, no download site.:(Conclusion: fraud?, technical problems on mail servers of CaptainSim?, others mysterious affairs?I'm still waiting for I don't konw what:(, but I never will conclude in the future other transactions with CaptainSim On Line store, that I consider not reliable or worse...:(Did someone have similar bad experiences with CaptainSim on line store?Greetings G.R. - Italy
