Hello,I haven't looked at your other post, but I can confirm that PMDG engine sounds are handled by FSX alone, and to the best of my knowledge do not depend on external dlls. The dll files only provide cockpit switch/apu/air conditioning/avionics/control surface sounds - not engines.If you are having engine sound trouble there could be a number of fixes, three basic ones posted below:1: Make sure your speaker configuration is set to 2.0 / 2.1 or Stereo in whatever audio manager you use (e.g. Realtek)2: Make sure engine sounds are above 0 (preferably at least 50) in the FSX sound options/settings page.3: Make sure that you PMDG747-400 folder in the airplanes directory contains 'sound.GE', 'sound.PW' and 'sound.RR' folders, and that the each folder contains a 'sound.cfg' file, as well as numerous .wav files.Do other aircraft work correctly?What about externally?Post back with your findings...

5m0kin,I'm not sure exactly how the pax/cargo/fuel loads were configured for your flight, but I've experienced a similar problem with FSPassengers when there is either too much weight loaded forward or aft (out of CoG limits), and sometimes when speed is too low. It would appear that the default autopilot is unable to handle these non-standard conditions for flight, and so it begins to rock forwards and backwards as it attempts to maintain level flight.Just my two cents...

By any chance did you replace it with the backup included with the edited version? If so, I have faint memories of that one not working 100% either. If you have restored your original one, then I can only suggest an FSX 'repair' from the discs. Sorry I can't be more helpful.

Very nice work there!I am a REX user too, but if this was priced reasonably enough I don't think I'd wait too long before grabbing this one.I look forward to a couple more screenshots (hint, hint) and then release... :(

Very annoying isn't it?I had exactly the same problem with my last FSX installation. If I remember correctly, I think it eventually turned out to be an updated languages.dll in my root folder at fault. At the time, I had downloaded a replacement file that aims to improve the garish notifications in the bottom left corner for a more simplified text.(e.g. The default "Parking Brakes ON..." shortened to simply "PRK BKE")I don't know whether or not you have this installed, but reverting it back to a default one saved my day (and my prop flying).Best of luck :(

Checking in my (a little outdated) 2008 UK VFR Flight Guide, it shows only that Jersey EGJJ does have an ILS system. To what extent it does not make clear, however a little googling for charts makes it clear that the system that should be in place is a basic ILS DME system, cabable of CAT I operations only (which would explain the fog closures...).Checking on my installed FS Commander addon, which reads the fsx airport and navigation database among other things, it shows that in my copy of FSX, EGJJ is fitted with indeed an ILS DME system, however the CAT rating is not clear and will require further investigating...When I get a chance, I'll open up ADE and have a look. You might be right where that is concerned but I'm almost sure I've seen something in sim to tell me that CAT is modeled. I am 100% sure however that FSX can make full use of the differences between just DME or just ILS systems, LOC DME services, and full ILS DME equipment, should it make any difference...Kind Regards

Although it is now 5 years old, FSX already has a very detailed database of approaches, as in what is and isn't available at certain airports. For example, if you go to EGLL, you will see, and test if you so wish, that most runways are equipped with an ILS. However, should you turn up at a small GA airfield in central Washington state, you should find that it definitely does not have any instrument landing guidence at all! From CAT III ILS, though to CAT I and DME only approaches etc. you will also find that FSX actually models the different variations well, and even not at all where one does not exist in the real world.As I say, this FSX database is now 5 years out of date, but for most major airports, AFCAD updates have been published here for free on AVSim, and on FlightSim.com file libraries.You can, although unrealistically, try to autoland a default aircraft by flying any of these instrument approach methods on autopilot. You should note however that as autoland is not installed in any default aircraft, and most landings will be hard (without any flare). For autoland under CAT III, why not purchase one of the awesome PMDG aircraft, which offer the full systems working exactly as on the real aircraft (including all realworld autopilot functions, full autoland with autothrottle etc.). Also, I don't believe that they will autoland on only a CAT I ILS approach, but I haven't attempted this in some time and so cannot be sure... To the best of my knowledge, ILS approaches / VOR DME etc. are part of the AFCAD file for any given airport. This means that within an AFCAD editing program, like ADE, you have the option to not only modify current approaches and approach types, but also to add new ones or delete completely any approaches you don't want.If any part of this doesn't apply to your question, feel free to ignore it :biggrin:I hope this has helped :(

Hi,Not sure if this will fix your problems, but have you installed the uiautomationcore.dll fix into the FSX root folder?See here if not, and for more info.I had some similar problems when switching over to W7, but now FSX runs just as well as it did on Vista. Good luck, and do let us know how you get on. :(

I had a similar problem after my last reinstall...Turned out I'd forgotten to check the 'Advanced Animations' setting in the settings GUI.Let us know how it turns out for ya. :(

I'm really not sure now..The odd thing is I can't find any trace of your exact video card anywhere. Can you confirm whether it is a laptop or desktop PC and whether or not it is onboard the motherboard?

Might be worth checking for driver updates for your graphics card. If you've recently installed a new driver, try reverting back to the previous one.

I think this is what you're looking for...http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=0D690E1A-F808-4CCB-88A6-232E9ACBC90D&displaylang=en&displaylang=enAs far as I can tell it's a list of all the water runways included in FSX. Might even do a couple of water hops myself :(

Try this one:http://www.llhinfo.com/llh5a.htmlLooks quite nice so I might even buy it myself :(

It really depends what you're looking for, but as a rough guide....If you're looking for a really amazing VC and external model, choose CaptainSim.If you don't mind a reduction in quality in return for much better fps, choose LevelD. (CS=10 FPS / LVLD=30 FPS for me)If you want full systems modelling, choose LevelD.If you want a fully modelled interior cabin streching right back to the rear galley, choose CaptainSim.If you want FS2Crew, choose LevelD.If you want -200, -300, -300F, KC767 & E767 varients, with optional winglets, choose CaptainSim.If you want compatability with other addons / hardware, choose LevelD.I've tried to be fair with the above. Personally I spend more time in the LevelD, but for screenshots, videos, and whenever I want that bit extra detail, I'll gladly hop into the CaptainSim.If you want to fly the 767 properly; you won't regret buying the LevelD.
