Heads up to my fellow DLSS Swapper Guinea Pigs
How do you get DLSS swapper to detect MSFS installation? I have it installed via the MS store.

iniBuilds Heathrow V3.0 Update
Excellent performance! In the PMDG 737-800 with FSLTL running mostly High settings with some on Ultra LOD of around 150 running at 4K I am getting lows of 46fps and highs of 59fps. In the Fenix A320 lows of 36 and highs of 46. Outstanding work! Tests were done both at night and day and with live weather which currently is overcast, poor visibility and heavy rain.

SMP 3.2.1 is out...log in, and download...
Prevents crashes from RWC when unexpected tornadic activity remarks are encountered in METAR data Cleans up cloud shadows outside the edge of the cloud draw area More aggressively avoids stratus / cumulus cloud layer intersections with RWC Make sure cirrus, stratus, and cirrocumulus clouds in RWC don't change altitude as the local ground level changes. Fixes UI bug in RWC configuration dialog Subtle improvements to cloud lighting

[29JUN16] PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II - Tech Testing Commences
Don't get me wrong, the DC-6 is a totally new step in X-Plane in itself, but there are no modern day heavy aircraft I don't think the DC-6 is considered heavy (correct if I am wrong). I have the DC-6 and thoroughly enjoy it, and now PMDG are in the door I would like to see a close enough release of their future releases to the platform from other platforms such as FSX and P3D.

[29JUN16] PMDG 747-400 Queen of the Skies II - Tech Testing Commences
Roughly how many months after release into Beta for FSX or P3D can we expect to see it in Beta stage for X-Plane 10? X-Plane is desperately lacking a complex simulation of a heavy aircraft and it would be great to see you guys set that milestone in X-Plane.

DC6 Sales
I am curious as to why you are having so much problems with X-Plane. As for loading times - FSX and P3D were far worse for that for me. One bad experience cannot make you judge something in which others have found better experiences than other platforms. I have been using X-Plane for just over 1 year now and love it, having optimised it to my configuration eventhough the setup is a bit of getting used to.

Flight Factor 767
For the interior sounds probably, but the exterior - I wouldn't believe so. Its a very poor representation of a 767 engine sound.
-
Flight Factor 767
Having only just started to get into the FF 767 I am blown away at how bad the soundset is. Inside is 'ok' but outside just sounds like a 'REALLY' bad hair drier. Are there any replacement soundpacks out there of an actually PW engine?
-
X-Plane noob - first questions
I would avoid Flight Factor to be honest. I bought the 767 and I am very disappointed with it, not only that, but Flight Factor have a tendency of charging in excess of $5 per livery for the aircraft. Don't give PMDG's newly released DC-6 a miss! Its a 'MUST' buy for X-Plane.

[11JUN16] PMDG DC-6 Cloudmaster UPDATED & Other Goodies!
That I didn't know. Thank you for informing me about that.
-
[11JUN16] PMDG DC-6 Cloudmaster UPDATED & Other Goodies!
But its still possible to add the function into the aircraft, unlike FSX or P3D.

[11JUN16] PMDG DC-6 Cloudmaster UPDATED & Other Goodies!
Fantastic update for a week! Just something I would like to clear up - seeing as though X-Plane has the ability to simulate rain drops on the cockpit windows, is there any possibility of adding that functionality to the DC-6?

Your new PMDG DC-6 base
http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/profile/125097-misterx6/&do=content&type=downloads_file&change_section=1 http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/26184-19ak-icy-bay-alaska/ Happy flying! MisterX makes some of THE best freeware airports available for X-Plane 10, some are better than a lot of payware airports in my opinion. You must download all required files in order for the scenery's to work though, links are provided on the download page. Once downloaded just put into your Custom Scenery folder within the X-Plane directory and away you go.

Your new PMDG DC-6 base
Alaska for me, flying mostly between PAJN and 19AK (Icy Bay), some great scenery on the way and two fantastic freeware airports. Flying the Everts Air Cargo.

Glareshield raindrops
I too wondered why the raindrop effect is missing from the windows. Even when sitting on the ramp and its raining it would be nice to see some drops appear. Why have working wipers when there is no rain effect?

Moving to X-Plane 10
A bit late to the party here but - I emailed Laminar Research about the matter of AI planes and whether they plan on developing anything in the future, they came back with that they plan on doing something in the future better than what the default AI system currently is. W2XP looks to be a good piece of software, but it doesn't appear to be the best way possible of adding AI traffic into X-Plane.

To buy v3 or wait until 3.1
Sorry for jumping in here, but has the famous viewpoint shift bug been fixed in V3 at all?
-
ROTATE MD80
Probably those 4K textures. My 3GB 780Ti is handling it well though!

PIA 777 Retro.
She's operating the real worlds flight tonight from Manchester EGCC! Just arrived from Islamabad.

What happened to the DC-6?
I am looking forward to that very much so! Judging by the 777 sounds the DC-6's will be as beautiful if not more so (well it is a classic). Looking forward to flying her in X-Plane! The calm before the storm is upon us :wink:
-
What happened to the DC-6?
Hows the new sound package coming along for the 6? I'm sure I remember hearing you say that the sounds in one of your videos aren't the release sounds and that there will be a specific soundset for the DC-6 once released?

SkyMaxx Pro v3 is Out
It was SkyMaxx Pro that was causing the crashes. I had it on a custom setting and that likely caused a memory leak or something. I have since uninstalled and reinstalled it with fresh settings keeping them at default, I successfully did a 1 hour 30 minute flight without any problems.

SkyMaxx Pro v3 is Out
A little late to the party, but thought I'd share this here. I have had Skymaxxpro-v3 since release. Not had any problems with it until recently, Xplane 10 crashes almost always when sky maxx pro is doing something, in my log the last program is sky maxx pro and then the application crashes like here - SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 120128 KB GPU, 8412204 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 106368 KB GPU, 8299856 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 344704 KB GPU, 8486388 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 414976 KB GPU, 8579472 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 465728 KB GPU, 8621468 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 522048 KB GPU, 8704088 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 531264 KB GPU, 8587388 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 548736 KB GPU, 8614040 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 573312 KB GPU, 8761296 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 574400 KB GPU, 8741092 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 530240 KB GPU, 8614000 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 560896 KB GPU, 8618496 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 559168 KB GPU, 9098688 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 558080 KB GPU, 9083444 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 347200 KB GPU, 8927360 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 306816 KB GPU, 8821964 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 306880 KB GPU, 8829256 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 71808 KB GPU, 8725016 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 68992 KB GPU, 8683364 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 47680 KB GPU, 8641548 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 48960 KB GPU, 8604884 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 54656 KB GPU, 8605688 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 64896 KB GPU, 8504840 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 56704 KB GPU, 8453596 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 58304 KB GPU, 8451296 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 58624 KB GPU, 8342684 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 51904 KB GPU, 8312344 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 62208 KB GPU, 8133200 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 83136 KB GPU, 8109044 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 72576 KB GPU, 8548848 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 68864 KB GPU, 8536388 KB CPU SkyMaxx Pro: Memory Check: 64256 KB GPU, 8505824 KB CPU --=={This application has crashed!}==-- Anybody know whats up?

Future of Aviation
Expect less A380's if any at all, and expect more drone type aircraft. That is my prediction for the next 20-30 years! Pilots will soon need to find other jobs, as computers will take over their roles completely!
