@KL791 I just saw here that FBW would be happy to integrate Software of other Developers into their FBW Installer. I am not sure how you licensed GAIST, but if it fits, would be a convenient way for many users to get the latest and greatest of GAIST. I just updated my GAIST Installation from one of the other 2 sites you mentioned and I happily will do in the future. I just wanted to give you a note of what could be possible additionally, if there is interest 🙂 Thanks for letting us use GAIST for free, it is an awesome package and I can see that you and all the contributors are putting a lot of love into it. I appreciate that very much!

You´re welcome! Credits should go to rockpapershotgun.com, this is from where I found the deal. @Clem Wu: I purchased my games there with Opera and Paypal too and had no problems. BUT I had to allow cookies for that site and the payout site (has another URL). Maybe your Cookie settings are also restricted like mine, so this could cause problems.

Since some of you might also be interested into some other kind of Flightsims, there´s a nice offer ot getloadedgo.com where you can get for example DCS BlackShark 2 and DCS A-10C Warthog for 18 Euro or 15 Pounds. There are other Flight Sims too. Here´s the link to the deal: http://getloadedgo.com/ The timer says, that the offer is still valid for 1 day and 6 hours for me now.

Maybe some are using Flight out there and want to complete their collection. At least when opening the Steam Store here in Germany all MS Flight stuff has 40% off until the 23rd of July here. http://store.steampo...icrosoft flight Edit: Oh my bad! I did not realize that the "MS Fly" post below was meant for MS Flight! Can a Mod just delete this Post maybe? Sorry for the inconvenience!

The Delco Carousel INS is one if not the best free AddOn to FS I´ve ever seen! It´s been quite a while since I had my last flight in FSX, but I had much fun learning the Delco Carousel INS and using it on various flights in my CS 707. I also have a Triple INS Setup in my FSX Default Boeing 747. I´m not quite sure if I got it from somewhere else or if I created it myself. It´s been quite a while. But since this is the only Delco Carousel INS Installation I have in a default Aircraft, maybe you want to have a look at it. It could be a good example of how the implementation in a panel.cfg works, so you can figure out yourself how to insert it into the DC-10 you´re using. I hope it helps! Hmm... I am not allowed to attach this file to this Post. I don´t know why, but if you want you can send me a PM with your E-Mail address and I will send it to you directly. Kind regards!

I can only recommend the Twin Otter. It was the first plane I bought for FSX and I still fly it. In my opinion it has fantastic sounds, it is big fun when flying Bush / VFR and besides the good variety of models (Wheel, Ski, Float, Skydiver Version) you get 2 Cockpit Versions (one with steam only and another one with a modern KLN90 GPS which is really very complex and needed me to read the manuals thoroughly to understand all the built in functionality).As someone mentioned above this plane is pretty simple to start up and you cannot fry the engines, but apart from that it´s a fantastic plane which I enjoy to fly even after years.The short field performance is fantastic and you can even do deep dives with the props in reverse (I heard that some Pilots do this to get back to the ground quickly after the Skydivers are out to pick up the next load ,but I´m not sure if this is really true). Ah yes, and the sound... I love it :-)

I think it´s quite normal and depends more on the graphics card related settings than Scenery or anything else. I think I had a simliar number like you before I started to play around with graphics settings. After I had my FSX running as I wanted I tweaked the settings for my Graphics card to get a little bit more visual quality. Since all (or most) of that stuff is done entirely by the Graphics Card it does not affect FSX performance at all, but looks nicer to me.Now I think I have around 800MB of Video memory used and instead of the GPU running in idle all the time it´s getting quite warm. If it would not look better as with my settings before, of course I would revert to these. Less Power consumption means less heat and a greener flight :-)Here are some of the settings I changed from deafult in my NVidia Settings:- AF 16x- AA Transparency Off- Triple Buffering On- Negative LOD Bias Clamp- Texture filtering Trilinear optimizing Off- Texture filtering Quality High Quality- Texture filtering anisotropic On- Prerendered frames 1- AA Mode AA_MODE_METHOD_SUPERVCAA_64X_4v12 (I think this was the main setting which made my Graphics Card do something for her money)If you´re happy with your image quality I´d say: Be happy that your GPU gets not much work from FSX. It generates less heat and consumes less power.

Did someone manage to get this bird started including the HUD from cold and Dark by the Checklists (not the Quickstart function!)?I get all up and running apart from the HUD. When I purchased that in the first 5$ sale they did, I also asked this in the old Iris Forums but never got useable response from anyone.

Not a Balloon, but something very different too is the Zeppelin NT for FSX. The Site and the Manual is in German only, but I think installing it is straightforward and the Manual has pictures with numbers and an english text of what switch is for what. Maybe you have fun with that one too?SiteDirect Download

There seems to be no Heading Bug in the FSX Beaver. It´s flying straight north for me too. Watch out the FSX Keyboard Settings. There should be 2 options to increase / decrease the heading Bug probably?

Is anybody able to access their Website? I wanted to have a look at their Forums and my Posts again and if there are Updates for my Airplanes available. But I can´t access the Site with the URL mentioned above :-(

Hey kjng,would you mind posting a Screenshot of your AA / and Texture Filtering settings from the NVIDIA Inspector? I played around with the settings a little bit... it´s strange. Sometimes they apply to FSX and sometimes not. I´m a bit puzzled how to set the AA Behaviour Flags for example. In DX10 the Settings seem to never get applied, which is sad, because my FPS are considerably higher in DX10 than 9.

I finally found something which looks like a DX10 FPS Limiter. Since my Japanese is a bit rusty, I used Google Translate to get all the Files needed to get GSD FPS up and running.At least I get it started and it seems to sit in the Systray. But unfortunately the program itself is in Japanese too. Is there anybody capable of reading Kanji. I guess it´s Hiaragana, because of the curved symbols...Here´s the Site I found a reference to the tool first:http://hangakusouzai.blog82.fc2.com/blog-entry-1254.htmlHere´s the Site where you can download the Tool itself:http://www.geocities.jp/pokan_chan/#GSDFPSAnd on that Site you can grab the Package which has the needed DLL in it:http://mosax.sakura.ne.jp/fswiki.cgi?page=GSD+%2D+BBS+readerMaybe someone can help? :unsure:Kind regards!

The 1301.25 include also the return flight, right? I think you made a mistake in the calculation. As soon as you have bought the Superbug in NYC, you can hop into your new plane and you´ll be back in Germany within a blink of an eye. So a one way Ticket would be enough and much cheaper :(

My heart got jumping when I saw the Thread Title because I thought: Yes, finally a FPS Limiter which also supports DX10. But it doesn´t seem to... when I have a look at the Files in the archive (d3d9.dll).FSX runs much better on my PC with DX10 enabled and some of ******* tweaks applied. I tried to switch to DX9 and use the FPS Limiter mentioned earlier here in this Forum. But I gained nothing. Does anybody know if there´s a FPS limiter out there which can be used with DX10 enabled? :Praying:When I run FSX with unlimited Frames it´s much faster, but I get blurries. I think when locking the frames (I don´t need 60, what I sometimes get unlimited) the blurries could go away again and in summary I get a smoother experience.
