Hi guys, I was trying to find if there was a keyboard shortcut to toggle the AVSS from Altitude mode to Ascend/Descent rate mode and back again? I think a quick mouse click will keep switching mode but I would like to assign a key so I can potentially use my VRInsight box. Thanks in advance

And do not forget EGPH Extreme from UK2000 which I use a lot and also falls into the category of awesome!

Valid opinions, but mine is now gathering dust in a draw since EzDok and a wireless headset. Mine spend most of the time paused when trying to hit button hotspots. I used it on my BAe Hawk and it's nice for circuits, but for heavy tin it's a gonner.

What recommeded cooler would you guys use for an OC 2500K CPU? Thanks in advance

My TIR4 is sat in a drawer gathering dust since I got EZDOK, I found the constant pausing TIR to accurately hit a click spot to be too much hassle. I have several views setup for my 767 and assign a joystick button to each so I can smooth pan around the VC. Yeah TIR is good but not essential and personally I find it annoying - just my view :)

I have to agree with Mike here, my TIR4 is in a drawer since I got the cam software. TIR is very nice but you do find yourself pausing it regularly to facilitate hot spot clicking. Both work together if you have them but I find the effects of the cam software much more realistic and I am not tethered to my PC with the IR LED's anymore - particularly helpful as I have wireless headset now.

Thanks for the plug Bert :(

FPS at unlimited for me also and works best with all my a/c and scenery.As for external FPS limiters they cause a big problem for me when using dual monitors. If set externally at 30 FPS, this is then divided down for each window I move to the second monitor.A couple of windows on the second monitor and FPS drops to an unusable rate :(

Hi Rich, I second Acronis as Ryan says. Once installed there is an option to create a boot disk for occasions where C: fails and you cannot boot.

An anonymous signature bump even - tut tut.

Does the limiter program need pointing to the fsx.exe and not the fsx.cfg?

Thought I'd add my support! Buy it, especially if you have joystick/throttles... the profile config is essential (example: I use it with Saitek X52 Pro and have set throttle curve so that my throttle preset is correct for taxi power). I also fly (cough, cough) a 767 and FSUIPC allows interfacing other software so I can control cockpit functions from other hardware.

To add an extra element of realism, ez-dok is perfect. Tricky to setup correctly but very versatile if you persevere. It also works with TrackIR - I use both and like the resonance feature of ez-dok when I land.

A quick snapshot of the two networks tonight.
