how about you stop being an annoying troll sir, seems to me you are making a go of dissing this product over a cabn even before release .to be honest if i were bbs i would bar you from even purchasing the product even if you can afford the price

i have never heard as much entitled poo from the gen z mob . i want it i want it now and it better be top notch or i will sqeam and sqeam until my unreal demands are met. please give it a rest pal we now have dogs fighting over a bone regarding a bloody cabin . personally i use the the platform primarily as an immersion with flying airliners in the cockpit and learning the systems and intracities of each aircraft without bothering 2 hoots whats happening in the cabin. is it it any wonder ms24 is now a game because of this nonsence?

discord i will not use, as iv'e tried before but keep getting stuck with passwords, captchas and then trying to work my way arround this total pile of cow poo i gave up. if developers keep insisting i use this platform in order to get support or latest update news, then i guess i am excluded. i am maybe not tech inclined with the way this works so i just rely on avsim and youtube as i doubt at as a long time flight sim enthusiast at 68 i should even bother . sign of the times i suppose.

thanks so much for your contribution sir, flight simming has always been my escape from reality sice fs2002 however your words realy do resonate with me insofar as making me feel a bit less pessimistic . as you know there will always be someone, a friend, aquantance or former pub goer that has went through a much worse experience than your self which does'nt make your situation any easier but kind of puts things in a perspective for me that makes me more determined than ever to make sure ruth can still have a comfotable life despite the challenges going forward even though i do have setbacks and frustrations at times and no day is the same i believe i am coping just now as best as i can. thanks again for your kind words.

absolutely no offence taken richard,you are correct regarding prioritising my own health too and thanks for your comments.

thanks richard, you are correct and it can be hard to concentrate on your own needs when dealing with this situation but as a sole carer you just have to overcome your own mental health issues in order to try and live some sort of normal life and adapt to the daily challenges that living with dementia brings, so far i can still manage. you will know as a carer sometimes you just have to put your own needs on hold remember your wedding vows and get on with it.

Thanks phil, maybe i should do like you and try to plan my simming around my wifes sleep times . i do sometimes get up really early in the mornings just so i can do a short flight before ruth awakes as i then have to tend to her needs most mornings as she is my number one priority, although not always possible i might add, as life can be very unpredictable day to day. nevertheless your approach sounds like a plan which i can try to adopt myself from time to time, although like you as a sole carer one thing i have learned over the last couple of years is not to get to frustrated when plans don't always work out as we would like. once again thans for your usefull contribution.

hi all, i don't normally post much on avsim as i just mostly prefer just browsing the latest topics, however i thought maybe i should reach out to other simmers that may be having the same issues that i am encountering and having to deal with. i have been an avsim member for god knows how long, and also vatsim too. i use both msfs 2020 and 24 and have a realy good set up situated in my living room. however that is for a reason. my wife suffers from dementia with lewy bodys, which is quite horrible to be honest and as her sole carer i can't and would not leave her alone whilst simming. but what i do is fly mostly airliner longer flights , ie sometimes long haul so that i don't need to be at the controls constantly. especially on vatsim it can be problematic . i am now 68 semi retired and ruth is slightly older. i do have carers come twice a day to give her medicine and thats ok. my problem right now which is not really important as she comes before my hobbies. including being an active guitarist is i can't really concentrate on the sim as much as i would like to at the moment. although i have 2 days in the week i have 4 hours respite social work services pretty much non existant for me, and i find i am just going to the pub and probablly drinking more than i should when i could be enjoying what i have spent thousands on and upgraded with a full wnctrl suite. i just wonder if there are any others in the community in a simillar situation and how you deal with it? although this post is not a cry for help i feel it can't be only me that is enduring sad stuff like this and i would appreciate any helpfull comments. thanks for reading.

such a glowing report, do you work for inibuilds lol

hi bill, i have the exact same issue but in msfs2020 that only began recently for me maybe in the last month or so. updated nvidia drivers . nvi etc. makes no difference. also happening in different aircraft. i have emptied community folder as well. still no joy huge cpu spiking in task manager every few seconds, which i believe is causing the audio spikes. i have also tried stopping some apps and services even fsuipc, but to little or no effect. it has now got to the stage where the sim has for me become unplayable at the moment, and there does not seem to be any definitive answers to this serios issue.

i had the same problem capturing ils frequencies or approaches on my 1st couple of flights, although this was a user issue as i had radio button on standby throughout the flights,

i have an issue that has came up with auto fps 4.2.10 when it does not close on exit fom msfs, and the only way to get it to shut down is through task manager. i dialed back to 4.9 version but still have the same issue, can has any one else had this problem?

option 1 worked ok thanks for your help. all working fine now Neil, and also thanks for the video. best regards, graeme.

i have just downloaded NGX reboot and installed after un installing previous legacy version from control panel. however after pressing the enable button on the new configuration it says it detects the old version on my ngx panel cfg.and because of this i have to now reinstall the pmdg ngx which is really annoying as you might imagine. i did not see any info regarding procedure before installing the latest version surely this should not happen.. any help would be appreciated thanks. regards ,graeme.

I have a similar issue although not sure if confined to my pmdg installs, in that i always have a 2 hour difference showing on the clock either way of gmt /utc,clcks going forward or back the way, could this be a setting of time zones within fsx? i do not use fsuipc or anything else to sync time. however any suggestions on how to rectify this would be much appreciated. thanks. best regards, graeme crawford

I have the 560ti had it now 3 years oc 4.3 still goin strong With dx10 fixer. I have occasional issues usually caused by addons, however for the most part solid performance and visuals, although you do have some trade offs with the eye candy, Which imo do not affect the overall satisfaction using the sandy bridge chip,hey! A couple of years ago everyone was raving this was the best thing since sliced bread! as we all know there are lots of folks with the latest and greatest machines and haswell chips imo i don't think most get much better performance due to fsx limitations so yes i would recomend your choice absolutely. Fact latest & greatest ain't always the best for fsx. regards graeme

I do know you have this issue with steam like a good few others.however,as i said this error is not confined to that platform as it happens in fsx too. forgot to mention i also disabled mytrafficx as i fly only on vatsim.imo this error seems to trigger while using different sceneries & having them all enabled. Regards graeme.

i had the R6025 error a few weeks back using fsx, and the T7. which is the 1st time i ever came across this phenomenon. the only recent changes to my system were the additions of orbx ftx global and europe lc i think i may have resolved it by just turning sliders down a notch and making sure before flight only using the sceneries i am flying through. at the time i had the ctd i was flying SBRF-GGOV, and did not at the time realise i still had utx europe & orbx europe enabled in my sceneries cfg. i have not had any further issues so far touch wood. hope this helps. regards graeme.

hi, you are right about the repair install which i have only done once. i have since found out from ryan at pmdg this may be the issue as before the windows repair i thought it would be ok to copy fsx and all add ons to my external hard drive however this is obviously not the case. as it has been pointed out there may have been essential registry entries missed doing it that way. advice is complete uninstall of the sim and all add ons and clean install of fsx with all that entails as the best way forward. lesson learned! thanks for your reply anyway. best regards, graeme crawford

hi. i recently installed fs2 crew v1.1 and have an issue that makes the main panel unreadable. when i try to drag the panel up to the top of my screen just under the menu bar, it becomes all distorted and kind of stretched, although it works fine if i keep it a couple of inches lower. however that places it in my line of sight which is not ideal. i recently did a complete windows 7 repair install, saving all my fsx folders to an external drive. i am also having issues with the T7 and ngx with the fonts not showing in the green initialization bar during countdown and have already submitted a ticket to pmdg on this. i just wonder if the two issues may be related. any ideas much appreciated. best regards . graeme crawford

i have tried complete reinstall too, antivirus & firewalls off. everything works fine until i install the sp1c updates. i also reconfigure ezca and dx10 after install. still got a dead plane with no wheels lol regards graeme crawford.

thanks stewart, for your suggestions, just spent the whole of saturday trying to fix this issue with no joy and no flights. so i have now raised a support ticket,hopefully pmdg might have a clue as i am stumped! best regards graeme crawford

hi paul i do have gsx installed and have noticed it regenerating on initialization, but not with Sp1c where all i have is cold & dark with all vc panels blacked out, and no click spots anywhere, i have run out of ideas on what the problem could be, maybe i will submit a ticket as i also tried to down load both updates from the OC with no success, although i am sure i can't be the only one to have had this issue, and i believe it is probably something pretty simple i may be overlooking during installation. best regards graeme.

Hi everyone, flying the T7 from day one, and not had any real problems up till now. i also have the 300er expansion pack, everything working fine. however !!! 3 times i have down loaded Sp1c and every time all i get is the plane failing to initialize, a completely dark vc, no guages or mouse clicks working, exterior no gear, i just do not know what the problem is with it i have ezca & track ir installed and configured before running fsx i have read and reread download instructions as posted , i have also deleted previous panel states from the aircraft. uninstalled and reinstalled the base pack from backup.all is ok until i try to add the latest update from pmdg website, and also the operations centre. which only fixes the liveries as far as i know. the only other thing i have noticed is when trying to down load the update using windows explorer, i get red warnings (pmdg site not trusted type of thing) and only downloads if i save as a zip file then on to desktop which i then run as admin. thought about submitting a ticket as i am totally stumped, however as i really want to fly my T7 this weekend. Help from anyone on the forum whom may have had the same issues with Sp1c or indeed have any ideas i can try. would be very much appreciated. thank you in advance, best regards graeme.
