I am running FSX SE with ORBX, ASN, REX, My Traffic, FSCaptain. No issues. For the price, cannot go wrong.

Running RC4 with FSX Steam Windows 10, no issues. Assume you already have msstdfmt.dll.

I use MyTraffic in conjunction with Air Traffic Manager which limits AI flights to 100 or so. I have seen 300+ flight around London for instance, which will bring FSX to its knees.

Also make sure your nav is not set to gps instead of nav Have done this more than once myself

Had the same problem with ORBX. Downloaded the flight registry repair tool from Flight1 and pointed it to my FSX SE install. Worked for me. http://www.flight1.com/view.asp?page=library

I am running ORBX Global, Vector, and LC Europe in FSX-SE and have had great results. The boxed version would crash every other day but with SE only crashed once in 2 months and that was because I did not update my ORBX Central. Everyone's system is different and I know people will say there is no advantage to SE, but for me it's been well worthwhile. ORBX also has a Steam support sub forum now to make things easier.

It is possible ATM is looking for the boxed version. You might try the Flighyt1 registry repair found at http://www.flight1.com/view.asp?page=library, point the FSX to FSX SE, fire up ATM and see if that works.

The simconnect version is 10642 and it did run from that folder. Do you hasve boxed version installed as well?

Please note I was referring to FSX Steam Edition. In any case, location is Steam Library/Steamapps/common/FSX/SDK/CoreUtilitiesKit/SimconnectSDK/LegacyInterfaces/FSX-SP1 Run the simconnect installer.

My rig is old - GTX280. I could hardly get through a flight without FSX stopped working with the boxed version. Out of frustration, bought FSX SE at the full $25.00 price six weeks ago (it's now apparently $12.49 "full price" after the $5 sale ended). My GTX280 will not even run P3D. I have REX, ORBX FT Global, Vector and LC Europe, FS Tramp, FS Captain, DX10 Fixer all installed and have not had a single crash in six weeks. At these prices, it would seem worthwhile just in case the cat scratches your boxed DVD. As for me, no regrets on paying full price, the results have been well worth the money.

Figured it out. In the event anyone else is interested, you should execute the simconnect version in the SDK folder, FSX-SP1; this is version 10642. Air Traffic Manager will then connect and does work in Steam.

Anyone have this working with FSX SE? Have the latest FSUIPC but ATM does not connect.

Well, busy firing up my paintnet for screens, unfortunately two perfect captures at EGKK and EGHI, the second of which failed multiple times earlier. It is possible I did engage the app before getting the GS indicator. Did not know that would cause a failure to engage the glidescope while still apparently capturing the ILS. I have put so much into and out of FSX on the same install forever, so may be time to buy the steam version and start with a clean plate. Thanks everyone for your suggestions.

Happens with all aircraft, all airports. I would be just the one to overlook NAV/GPS, but double checked that early on. I will try to post a screen shot.

Suddenly having massive problem with aircraft (many) and airports (any) failing to find glidescope on ILS approach. I have followed all the usual rules, interception from below, ils Appr on, confirmed nav on. The ILS picks up the center line approach perfectly and completely ignores the glideslope diamond as it slides by. Have REX and just installed ORBX FT Global. Any suggestions appreciated.

Deleted the Buffalo VOR from the flight plan and all works now. Thanks for the help - I will have to watch for this circumstance in the future.

OK i followed your instructions to update and ran some tests. IFR KJFK to CYUL RC did fine I then thought it could be a KPHL problem, so ran KEWR to KPHL and directed all the way to Rwy 17. No problems. Went back to KBUF again and same problem. Perhaps I was not clear on original msg. Cleared for takeoff from KBUF and receive altitude advisories but never vestored on course. Takeoff from Rwy 5 and stay on that heading forever. As I final test cancelled IFR with RC and filed my flight plan with FSX controller and immediately vectored on course - so it looks like not the flight plan either. Out of ideas at this point.

Jim FSX SP2 = In all of my years of using FSX never seen this before. As it turns out - a simple reboot fixed - buit thanks for you advice.

I have loaded a flight plan KBUF to KPHL several times and get proper instruction to rwy and altitude changes but never vectored to destination. Have tried three times and always wind up flying toward Montreal as if RC4 in clueless as to the KPHL destination. Any suggestions?

FSX runs fine if I start a new flight, however whenever I try to load a saved flight the program successfully loads and I can hear all the sounds - but only my desktop on screen. I have tried switching with task manager and alt-tab - but no success. Any suggestions?
