  1. Hello All. I have been away from FSX Orbx for 2-3 years as being a pensioner it starting costing more than I really wanted to pay for new and updated sceneries and airports. I heard recently that there is a new product available called P3D. Does P3D cover airports around the globe, and in my case New Zealand? Does it equal or surpass the lovely graphic's of Orbx. I enjoy flying, and taking in the scenery. That's all that interests me so would the $195.00 version be what I should aiming at? Many thanks to those who reply. zl2bmh
  2. Dear Zuendholtz. Thank you sir. Just the information I required. I do had a few scenaries left over and planes so your, or other members help, will be invaluable. Regards and thanks again. Jim zl2bmh
  3. Dear Zuendholz. Thank you for your reply. Just to clear this up, I sold a number of my Orbx FSX scenery and planes because money was short at this time. Now that there's a light at the end of what had been a very long tunnel, can I go ahead and purchase Prepar3D on it's own, adding to it as they release new scenery etc. Jim
  4. Hello All. For various reasons I have been away from flight simming for a number of years, it was something I really enjoyed, I am looking to get back into it but have found a new player in Prepar3D. When I was last involved Orbx FSX was doing well and the scenery was beautiful. Is Prepar3D in competition with Orbx FSX? If I bought Prepar3D is it a sim in it's own right, and I can still get most of the planes and beautiful scenery as in Orbx FSX. Regards all. Jim
  5. Thanks Jay, again i'm very grateful. Jim.
  6. Thank you Pete, I am very grateful. Jim.
  7. Hello All. I have been unable to fly my 737-8/900 due to illness. i bought this beautiful looking plane the 26th Sept 2011. Since then, according to my records, On the 28th of Dec 2011 I installed a patch, On the 7th Jan 2012 I installed SP1B which then gave me 3118, then 5th June I installed SP1c. Could someone who has their 737-8/900 completely up to date please tell me if I have completed everything correctly as i want to get serious and start teaching myself how to fly this lovely plane. Regards and thanks, Jim zl2bmh.
  8. I'm very sorry, but I just cannot understand what I have to do. Could someone please break this down for someone who only has kindergarten knowledge of computers. Thanks for any reply, zl2bmh, Jim
  9. Hello All. I need urgent help to get me up to date on what has happened since the release of the 800-900NGX. Unfortunately, just after purchasing this aircraft I took very ill. I was away from flying, or anything else for many months while in hospital and I lost part of my memory as a result of this illness, with the help of professionals I have slowly regained a lot that I had lost, but I am struggling with parts of my FSX, in particular with this lovely aircraft. I have downloaded and installed it, but never gone past that point, I see I have printed out a manual. Could some kind person tell me what has happened since it's delivery to the public and has there been any updates etc. I would be very grateful to any help you are able to give me. Regards and thanks, Jim, zl2bmh.
  10. Thank you for all your help, I have now downloaded SP1b and installed it. As I'm not a competent user of a computer, I just want to make absolutely sure that I only had to install SP1b and that there was no need to install SP1. Is this correct.Thanks you again,Jim. zl2bmh
  11. Hello All.On checking I found that I purchased the PMDG 737-800/900 in October 2011. I still cannot download the two updates SP1 and SP1b. My browser is IE9. Can someone help me please.Regards to all,Jim zl2bmh.
  12. Hello All.I am new to the PMDG 737-800/900 NGX and am unsure what patches etc are available for it. Could some please advise me what updates are available that I have to install.Many thanks,Jim.
  13. I have become very keen indeed on the dash 8 Q400 even though they only have a Q300 fleet here in New Zealand. Has anyone any information when the Q400 will be released to the Simmers?regards,Jim.
  14. Hello All. I have recently bought this aircraft, on page 12 of the introduction manual, it states where you change the Graphics section, by adding a line and again in the display section. Does this interfere with anything else either in the FSX program or anywhere else? I only have kindergarten level knowledge with computers so thought I had better ask before making any changes to a cfg file. Many thanks.Jim. ps: I'm sorry, but I cannot find the FSX.cfg section where these are stored, could somebody help me find it please, thanks.
