  1. I don't know, i have vector and i always run this tool after new airport is added. Never had elevation issues after discovering this nice tool
  2. In Vector configuration tool / Airport Elevation Corections, just run Auto-configuration once
  3. you are right on this. My SSD died and i'm using HDD again until i buy another SSD. I have microstuters and slow loading scenery. I'm 100% sure it wasn't so on SSD
  4. You can try this fix, not sure that will solve mountain flickering, but i didn't noticed any cloud flickering for a long time: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?1308-Fix-for-flashing-clouds
  5. Thanks Richard, I tried to figure out if DX10 is realy necessary. If that's right, i probably don't need to go for DX10, my DX9 FSX looks and performs just great, without CTD's or OOM's. I actually tried DX10 once - after enabling cockpit shadows VAS was slightly higher, and FPS was worse. But now i'm considering P3D for the first time :smile:
  6. Great shots! You said in DX9 VAS and fps were low. Just out of curiosity, how is the VAS usage/fps with your settings using PMDG 777(or 737)in similar situations? Thanks
  7. I remember that Ryan's post, but i think he said that applies to VC textures, not sure about exterior... But yes, both VC and exterior model are two MDL files, so that's probably right
  8. Another suggestion: Digital Aviation Piper Cheyenne Very nice plane, systems are there, automation too, lower engines then B60, and great FDE. It's a old product, graphics are not so polished as RealAir, but still one of the best
  9. if you uninstalled ORBX Vector and don't want it anymore, just remove it from scenery library, it can be done with SceneryConfigEditor too. If you didn't, reinstall Vector, that should fix it. It's a simple notification, you have area 166 in scenery.cfg, but for some reason folder is not there anymore. You can also just create empty folder with that name in that location and message will disapear
  10. Agree. I'm switching to X-plane after many years of FSX... I've been waiting for IXEG Great Shots!
  11. My experience with SAPI voices and VoxAtc: VoxPop Voices offered for free on voxatc website are using a lot of memory and cpu on my system, scenery laoding is suffering(visible)becouse of that. I don't know about available freeware voices, i have Cepstral voices for some years, and they are realy great, and not affecting FSX performance. Only negative things i can say about Cepstral voices is - they are not for free
  12. Absolutely. Nothing to do with VAS, run process explorer to see how much VAS FSX is using, you don't need to care about other processes. I run a lot of things with FSX, surfing, watching movies on long haul flights etc. You need to worry about VAS only when FSX is approaching 4GB. But that squares are definitely not becouse of VAS
  13. It's probably about graphics card or FSX tweaks. Tell us about yor system and fsx tweaks you have(or not). That usually hapens if FIBER_FRAME_TIME_FRACTION is set to low for example
  14. from what i read so far, Leonardo Maddog would be the best choice for you, but i'm not sure if it works with P3D. It is a complex, it has old stile gauges and one of the best systems(even circuit brakers are functional) and flight dynamics ever. Except graphics, which are not realy bad, but just not there for today standards - it's a top addon, on par with PMDG and Majestic. It has working shared cockpit feature too, and there is a FS2CREW for it. I would not bother with QW and CS, since you want something complex with good FMC
  15. I'm using FSX mostly, but still have FS9 installed, try this(i'm not sure if works with ATI) http://www.uk2000scenery.org/forum/index.php?topic=7309.0 Look at Reply #3 I know there was a nice guide for fs9 but link is dead now. I still have it somewhere on my external HD, i'll try to find it tomorow
