  1. Hi neilhr This sounds like a problem during the starting of the engines, I believe you may have advanced the conditions levers to max too soon. Have a look at the manual. The support forum for LES products is here http://forums.x-pilot.com/forum/71-leading-edge-simulations/ This has probably been covered already, if not make a new post. Everybody on the forums are very friendly and helpful.
  2. Hey Guys If you look at the developer blog, I believe WEDbot is the account that contains WED airports already in the 10.30rc1 update, so if you have updated to this release all the airports in WEDbot are already there. http://developer.x-plane.com/ That's how I read it anyhow.
  3. Hi PingPong Somebody asked Tom the same recently on X-Pilot, and he is definitely going to update it when time allows.
  4. I think that may be the FXAA indicator. You can toggle it off using nVidiaInspector.
  5. Totally agree with all the positive comments here. I have a few of the Carenado aircraft and I enjoy them all, but the C90 raises the bar in my opinion, excellent sounds and hand-flys very nicely. I agree with you mario, Carenado's best X-Plane aircraft yet.
  6. It's not that simple for the Seneca and Baron jcomm. The A36 is already optimized for XP10 but still has the SASL v1.0 so the v2.0/1 SASL folder will be a quick fix for this. The Seneca and Baron are still for XP9.7 and although they work in XP10 they haven't been optimized to take advantage of the features in XP10. This link explains all http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?showtopic=68492&page=1 Dan has said now the C340 is released, the upgrades will continue for the other aircraft once again. I believe the Seneca will be next.
  7. Reading the encouraging reviews of these OSM+Autogen packages I have now downlaoded the Europe and North America files and I must say they are absolutely brilliant, particularly the Europe one(only because I believe the OSM is more complete for Europe). I think I may have to start doing my airport sceneries for Europe again, having been frustrated by the too Americanised autogen. I would recommend these files highly and don't be worried about installing them, as Mitch says, they are very easy to do.
  8. The Mu-2 was the first third party add-on I bought for X-Plane back in XP9, and it was never bettered by anything I subsequently purchased. Any questions I have had for Tom regarding the aircraft I have posted over at X-Pilot http://forums.x-pilot.com/forum/40-mitsubishi-mu-2-support/ and he has always been so helpful and quick to get back to users. In fact the customer service and support from X-Aviation and their stable of developers is really something they should be proud of. This new version of the Mu-2, is such a big improvement on the already excellent original, it is hard to believe. The great thing is people have given feedback to Tom regarding small issues/requests and he is already intending to release a small patch, hopefully this weekend to address these things. Brilliant customer service. I am glad you have finally tried it jcomm, and hope you enjoy. I find it staggering actually the number of users who ask advice regarding add-ons to get and the Mu-2 is hardly ever recommended. I think this new version for XP10 64bit will change all that.
  9. Hi captain I opened it in wordpad on Win8, wordwrap doesn't totally align everything onto single lines but it is easily worked out what you need to change. Here is how I did it. I looked through Chris' file to see what I wanted to change, basically the section of airport surface lights, approach light and PAPI's, and copied and pasted them into a word document and printed this out. I then opened my unchanged 'lights' file in the X-Plane location and went to this same section of lighting. I basically compared what I had in there to what Chris changed, and so far as i could see it is all the BILLBOARD lines and the fifth parameter along which I think is the light width. I changed all these and saved the file and that is it. Please feel free to correct me if anyone knows any better, but I have certainly got an effect I am happy with. At the end of the day the original file is included in the download if you do muck this up and need to revert.
  10. I totally agree with you Flo. I think these lighting enhancements by chris k are going to differ for everyone depending on texture resolution settings/texture compression etc. I tried the lowest set as I run HDR 2xSSAA+FXAA and the ramp lighting, car park lighting was way too much for my settings. I did as Flo suggested and put the original file back in and then looked at the changes Chris had made for the approach lighting, runway edge lights and PAPI's and just changed these. The effect for me now is spot on. Thanks for the suggestion Flo, and thanks for the 'hack' Chris :smile:
  11. Hi Bruce Just to let you know, the CRJ200 from X-Aviation isn't yet 64 bit compatible. As far as i understand when 10.21 comes out and the GIZMO plug-in is all working fine then the 64 bit version will be released. Another aircraft I can highly recommend from X-Aviation is the MU-2 by Tom Kyler. Again as soon as GIZMO is tested and fine with 10.21 there is a highly anticipated version 1.5 to be released as a free upgrade. You can find details at http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php/topic/331-mu-2-progress-towards-update/page-31#entry50072 Hope this helps

  13. Hi Dysphoria BA don't operate the 737-800, only series 300/400. They use the north terminal at Gatwick, which includes pier 6 that the bridge goes across to. Hope this helps.
  14. That is fine Tom. As I say it's not really a major issue, I just have one of the landing lights switched on for taxi-ing. I mentioned the nosewheel steering, because I used to work in ground operations for a aircraft management company and we managed a KingAir 350. When it arrived back at out base airport at the end of the day we would need to manouevre it back into the hangar with a tug and there were two marks on the nose gear strut that you we not allowed to turn beyond, it had a really large turning circle. We would always need to turn it through 180 degrees and it would be about a nine-point turn. I am not sure how the C90 compares with this, but I always adjust this in PM myself so not an issue. I say again, many thanks for taking the time to answer and try to accommodate all the users requests/questions.
