  1. Hi Guys:Twas me that wrote that guide over at FSLabs. When i get back to my FSX Machine (about Feb next year sadly) i shall probably be updating that thread and fixing that screenshot (i think i may have accidentally deleted it - sorry) and i'll be revisiting with the updated ASE V2.? and seeing where i get with it. Thanks and Happy ChristmasSmiffy
  2. The VA related threads were in the BAV Member Forum Martin - That's what i meant, not the Avsim Forum - Sorry for any confusionCheersSmiffy
  3. So let's get this in perspective and offer the other side of the coin shall we?You join one of the oldest and most successful VA's around.You are a member for less than 5 minutes, and having complained about quite a lot of the VA already in other threads, you then start a thread called 'what don't you like about the VA' in the hope that enough of your friends of a like mind will whine about things enough that a 10 year old VA will suddenly change the way they do things on your say so.One of the longstanding members or two takes offense to what you say, and they flame you a little, you then go off on a rant and state that you are leaving the VA. After having done this, one of the board see's this, and as it's pretty well known in the VA that if you state in a rant that you are going to leave because you don't like it etc, that the board will save you the trouble of finding the delete button and do it for you. And so he does.You then fire off a few emails to people who don't respond on the same day (why should they, the VA is their hobby - you don't pay to join, they have jobs & family to deal with which always comes first etc) and then when you don't get a response the same day, you go onto a public forum and start airing your dirty laundry in public. I wouldn't let you back in after that, and I don't think that many other VA's would either. It states in your profile that you're 35, although given your behavior, i would suggest that it's more like 15, below the joining age of the VA anyway... Think about it...SmiffyPS: At Martin - I wouldn't say a sincere apology counts for nothing. Far from it in fact, but there are ways and ways not to do things.

    Hi McCrashWith the Simufly INS that Concorde X uses, you are able to use the AEDU Card System to load the next set of waypoints, so really, theres no typing to do. Every 9 waypoints (sometimes less) you need to just load up the next card, exactly as it was done in the real world. If FSLabs hadn't done that, and as you suggest, asked the guys at simufly to come up with an additional waypoint quantity, they would have all sorts of other complaints about a lack of realism.

    Given that Lefteris Kalamaras owns FS Labs, the guy that was lead developer and Technical Director for most of PMDG's add-ons, wouldn't it be reasonable to expect that the quality would match / exceed that of PMDG? CheersPaul
  6. How cool is that!Put them back on sale on the site!!!!!Now i know what i want for Xmas! P
  7. Dan: Sorry to hi-jack your thread, all will become clear as to why, as soon as i explain the problem, and you were a recognisable name that i know is sane enough not to launch into me for knackering your thread!Guys...I'm using Windows 7 32Bit, with Firefox 3.6 and i cannot start a new topic or do a 'full' reply, i can only type in a fast reply window...The pages appear for a new topic or a full reply, and if i have a quote in a full reply i can select text to highlight it, i just cannot type anything, or delete text. I have the same issue another forum that appears to use a similar forum plugin, but as yet nobody has been able to suggest a fix. I just ran a check for updates with firefox and i am informed that i have the latest release.Could somebody suggest the appropriate google string or a fix for this? I would like to avoid changing the browser if i can as i have tried most, and Firefox is by far my favourite other than this very annoying issue...CheersPaul
  8. Very nice!Can't wait to start smashing this into the tarmac around Europe! :)CheersPaul
  9. FSUIPC is very useful and highly recommended, to get the autobrakes to disconect try increasing the thrust out of reverse and (or?) pressing on the brakes,Works for me every timeCheersPaul

    So good, i played it twice. @ PMDG in general. Can your next add-on please be more realistic, the last one i bought, i flew in it from Dubai to Heathrow, opened my front door, and i was still in Dubai, which is frankly unacceptable. CheersP...couldn't resist it, felt the thread needed a little perspective...
  11. In this instance though PMDG stands for Pointless, with Mostly Default Gauges. :(
  12. Ryan & Vangelis:Many thanks for your response. Is there any chance that that info could be stickied? I have not yet tried it but shall give it a go on my next PMDG Outing, and if if it does work, then I am sure it is something that might require revisiting from time to time by many of us. Kudos also to Vangelis for offering his assistance to HiFi. Hopefully he will find the time soon.CheersPaul
  13. Bill....You are wrong. 73.964% of all FS Users have tool-tips turned on. With something as revolutionary as a 3D interactive Lav on board that flushes and works with TrackIR (will it be backwards compatible) tool-tips will be a necessity. Especially given that many FS'ers appear to have trouble locating their tools.I will not buy it unless the windows actually open, and tool tips are locked to ON in the lav...P

    It doesn't look like any of the off the shelf products that i have seen, and he does state that it's a little project that he started. I assume it's a home build.@ Justin - Wanna build me a 744 Throttle Quad? How much ? P
  15. Cheers for the info chaps :)P
