  1. it's possible. Not easy but possible. Depending on the gauge. I would gut it out and replace the internals with a servo motor and a controller card. I interfaced a real wet compass http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TglWZvNalDQsome tips on how i built it here http://www.my757sim.com/Sim-Building-Tips check out these sites for more tips:http://mycockpit.org/http://cockpitbuilders.com/http://my757sim.comhttp://www.lekseecon.nl/ if you want to interface it using the built-in mechanics check out this site/book:http://www.mikesflightdeck.com Hope this helps
  2. Has anyone gotten the level-d 767 to work with prepar3d?
  3. this is what i was waiting for! I love KLAX, now I am ready to give prepar3d a try. Well done fsdt!
  4. are you using triple monitor by any chance?
  5. This happens to me when my FSX settings resolution is different than the windows desktop display resolutions. Have you checked that?
  6. excellent news! looking forward to this!
  7. looking great!I saw that it mentions marshallers. I wonder if it will have actual working marshallers guiding you to the gates at every airport. That alone would be a great feature! it's looking really good.thank you
  8. The problem is caused by 2D panels being too wide when using 3 monitors. You need to change your aircraft.cfg to make the panels smaller and the problem will go away.Check out this posthttp://www.mycockpit.org/forums/showthread.php/19351-Getting-rid-of-mouse-flickers-and-cockpits!!-problem!!?p=100155&viewfull=1#post100155
  9. Hello,love fs2crew voice commander for the level-d 767.How about an option for de-icing?as suggested in this thread:http://www.cockpitbuilders.com/community/index.php?topic=1400.msg10537;topicseen#new"Heres all you need.. about 4 min of swishing sound (to be realistic). When complete, a voice comes on the radio and says something like this. " OK (airline flt number).. deicing complete, start time 0830, end time 0834. 50-50 mix TYPE I, 100% TYPE 4. Employee number (whatever). Flash your lights when ready to taxi, contact ground control, have a nice day. "doesn't sound too difficult!thank you. great work.
  10. great work here. WOuld it be possible to do the latest FAA changes. Or is this beyond the capabilities of this software?Effective June 30, 2010, air traffic controllers will no longer use the term
  11. Yeah you can do that with 2 eyefinity cards I currently use 6 monitors1 5850 card for 3 outside views 1 Older ati card for panels connected to a dualhead2go for panels and the second output connected to a CDU Screen, all from 1 core2duo 3.0ghz PC. It runs good.
  12. No, this what you needhttp://accessories.us.dell.com/sna/product...mp;sku=330-5521
  13. do you have DX10 enabled? You could try disabling and see if that helps.Are you using more than one monitor?
  14. Do you guys have the same screen resolution in Windows as well as in FSX settings? I've had problems in full screen using different resolutions but when the resolutions match it works great. For example if my resolutions in Windows is 1680 x 1050, in the FSX settings the resolution has to be 1680 x 1050
  15. You are correct, eyefinity does give you one wide monitor just like the Triplehead2go. The only difference is that eyefinity doesn't have bezel management yet, but I hear is coming.
  16. Ah, interesting. I'll check it out. Thanks!
  17. I tried it recently and it works just as described, good product! I had some problems with the voice recognition understanding my voice but that's a combination of my accent + windows. Nothing to do with the program. Just need to train the PC better to recognize my voice more accurately. give it a try, it really is free and it works good. It forces you to learn better ATC phraseology. Tho limited to waht FSX default ATC can do.
  18. For sure, all good points!I mean even if it was arrows that pointed right/left and stop I would be happy. For me it's hard to park right at the gate without using the outside view, and the arrows on the ground at that point are not really visible. Time to learn how to make add-ons hehehe
  19. Gary, I'm using FSX but I did some quick testing. When using super-sample I didn't notice the picture quality looking much better but the frame hit is major. I've been using multi-sample and it gives me good results. I don't think my machine can handle super-sample either but I don't find it necessary. Are you not happy with the result from multi-sample? I just read your post better, I didn't try it without clouds but at least with clouds it def takes a frame hit.
  20. Ah ok, thanks for the info! well there is an idea right there for someone that can make add on's :(
  21. Hello,Are there any marshaller add-on's available for FSX? I know about AES but I'm looking for something global for every airport and I don't really need the other features they offer.Anything else available?Thanks!
  22. No problem!A little update for anybody considering eyefinity vs. triplehead2go. I was having random freezes using full screen mode and as it turns out my 530W power supply was not good enough for this new ATI card. I upgraded to an 850W supply and now it runs great. Something to keep in mind if you are comparing cost.ATI 5850 $250 + Displayport to DVI adapter $100 + New power supply + $120
  23. You can try 2 of the new new 5800 series ATI cards combined to have up to 6 monitors in one pc. You will need a top notch PC for this but might be less work to maintained than networked PC's. If you want the best framerate possible I think a couple of decent networked PC's would be better. Most people use Wideview http://www.wideview.it/wideview.htm for this. Good luck!
  24. it looks very nice, but how do the city areas look? any screen shots of busy cities? How does it look at lower altitudes? I feel MegasceneryX doesn't look very good under 1000 feet, but after that it's amazing.
  25. It will most likely work as long as it uses the default FS offsets, which plane?
