Good day all I got the strangest of problems that popped up doing a flight today So i did a flight from KSFO-YMML on the PMDG 777-300er My trip distance was supposed to be 7,858 miles based on the flight plan i got but when i entered it into the FMC i get a distance of 6,957, that is about a 900 mile difference and i am real confused I did the math adding up the legs and the 6,957 number was right here is the flight plan i used GNNRR3 CINNY DCT 30N129W DCT 25N132W DCT 21N135W DCT 16N140W DCT 08N150W DCT 00N160W DCT WOOBY B581 NN DCT TANIL A579 UPSAD DCT ABARB DCT RIKNI DCT OMLAV Q15 WOL H65 RAZZI Q29 LIZZI DCT any help with this would be great thanks 13ifs40

well that is great but it does not answer my question basically is there any controls on the market that can do it, the sidewinder control stick use to but is there any out there now that can now like the Thrustmaster TCA Yoke PACK Boeing Edition or the Logitech Saitek Pro Flight Yoke\ thanks 13ifs40

Ok so i have a strange question. Are there any controller devices that you can feel the landing in flight sim, and i am talking any flight sim Right now i am using a Logitech joystick and i don't feel the plane land, i hear it but that is it i got some Christmas money from the wife and i am looking to upgrade but only if the device can feel the landing any help would be great. 13ifs40

Good afternoon all So i am wondering if there are any good Force-feed back joysticks or yokes out on the market i could get? Now i do remember the sidewinder was around a long time ago and i thought i saw that on Amazon but would they even be a good buy now? Any help from everyone and all would be greatly appreciated. happy holidays and thanks 13ifs40

I am planning on doing a sim flight from EDDF-KSFO and i was wondering how i would enter the flight plan for the United flight 59 that happened today? Based on what i can see there is not alot of waypoints he hits on this trip any help and suggestions would be greatly appreciated Ian Snow

Thanks for all your help this weekend when i am off i will get the program and try it out Ian Snow

HI Guys Sorry to sound like the Moron of the month,but that made me more lost So what i am trying to say is when i land at X airport and taxi to the gate, i try and pick up the marshaller, he is not there so i am parking blind. if by some miracle the marshaller is there and i can see the two numbers that show either left or right of the center line and the count down to stop, i taxi into the gate unfortunately when the number hits zero to stop i have parked to far forward and in the process squashed my marshaller like a bug

Hi David Yes when i go into the parking section i hit control Y to exit like the directions say and my aircraft ends up with its nose completely in the terminal. So it basically has no effect on what i did and i am back to square one Ian Snow

I posted this in the Fsdreamteam forum and got no reply so i am wondering if you folks out there could help me I was wondering if anyone can help me with a couple of questions? I know all the heavy parking positions are incorrect, so i have tried to correct them but i am having a problem when i enter the editor i can correct the marshall position no problem, but when i try to correct the 777-200 or 777-300 i end up with the plane back in the same position which is with the nose in the terminal. I follow the editor and it seems correct but when i exit using the Y key the plane moves back to where it started at 2nd question is do i have to adjust every single parking position or is there a way to do it only once and it fills in at every heavy parking spot at every airport? Thanks for your help in advance Ian Snow

ok thanks i will try this out Ian Snow

thanks for your reply, how do i find and clean the shader cache?

Hello all I was wondering if anyone out there could help me with a problem. I took 3 1/2 months off from the Prepare3d sim and when i turned it on today all of a sudden with default aircraft and scenery i am getting complete freezes and massive stutters the only change is the lack of play for 3 1/2 months thanks all for your help in advance 13ifs40

sorry just got back in the house i have not unstalled yet because i am not too comfortable doing it after the next round of shoveling i will give it a shot to make sure to uninstall i need to do the following go to windows settings, then apps (windows 10) uninstall client 1st, when asked do you want to de-activate, say no, then you can un-install content and scenery, then uninstall the main p3d file. is this correct?

sorry my mistake when i start the installation process it says "Where should file be instalalled"

ok so just to be sure when it says select file, what do i select?

sorry i am right in the middle of shoveling over 2 feet of snow here in Boston ok so here is the path i show before the download starts D:\Prepar3D v5\ASP3D i purchased the new version mostly out of frustration with the old one

Good Morning what i did was to purchase a new version i just need to know how to install itprepar3d is in my d drive underD:\ Prepar 3D V5

Hello Rob or Sparkrite so i broke down and brought a brand new version of activesky and i have the following error Prepar3d location not found We are unable to locate required folders/files i installed it in the D;\ prepar3d V5 folder so if i am correct that means it is not talking to Prepar3d for some reason 13ifs40
