Question for UTX (USA/Canada/Tropics) and FTX OpenLC USAOwners
Any further development on this issue? I'm downloading now and would love recommendations on what to turn on and and off with UTX. My free time is minimal right now so any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Just Flight PRO Edition - Beta Patch 2
Good Evening, I'm trying to get my hands on the beta patch released by Majestic that enables compatibility with P3D V3.1 for the PRO edition. On the Majestic website, my former PILOT edition registration will provide me with the 1.018 beta 2 batch for the PILOT edition but it is not cross compatible with the PRO (I tried :(() Having purchased my PRO edition from Just FLight, do I have to wait for them to post the new patch? Do they even post beta patches on Just Flight?? Thanks, Stephen

Majestic Config Manager Hanging
Morning, Just downloaded the latest FS2 Crew for the Q400. Aircraft is a properly installed brand new Majestic Q400 Pro running on P3DV3. Program appears to install perfectly but when I click on the Config Manager, the Manager just hangs. I see three entries in the program manager for FS2CrewMJC_Voice_P3DV3 all using 108k of memory and zero CPU but all I'm getting is the spinning Windows 7 "hourglass" but the program never loads. If I choose to End Process, nothing happens as well and the program continues to hang. Suggestions? Stephen

No Idea What Caused This..
Soooo, Last night I am cruising over Nebraska in my Aerosoft Airbus 319 logging a much needed flight for my VA. I step away for dinner and when I return my 30 FPS has dropped to between 5-7 and my VAS is creeping up on a OOM quick. I quickly noticed that just to the right of the Addon tab in the FSX task bar there are now a series of aircraft names, in this case they were Challengers, stretched across the screen in the task bar. I clicked on them expecting to see separate windows or options or something and nothing. They would highlight but that's it. I tried turning off all traffic but while traffic did cease, these FPS and VAS hogging phenomenons remained. Nothing I did would close them out. I tried minimizing and maximizing FSX and going to full screen but that didn't fix anything, neither did trying to open the tabs as a seperate windows. https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/-me1ZdJ_W-YA/VKtbs54qymI/AAAAAAAAAko/cL5tJN68m4c/w948-h56-no/Example%2B3.png https://lh5.googleusercontent.com/-rDVCxm8S1ho/VKtZXgAnFfI/AAAAAAAAAkA/8EbT-EaIlqE/w956-h470-no/Example.png In the end, I was forced to end my flight prematurely and restart FSX. I have not been able to replicate this strange occurrence again this evening. At the time I was running: FSX Airbus A319 FS2 Crew ASN for FSX My Traffic X If anyone has any clue what caused this I would be grateful. I simply don't have the free time to lose a two hour flight for some unexplained reason. Thanks as always. Stephen L.

Help: TrackIR without EZDOK
Hmmm. So after years of flying with EZDOK and TrackIR I've suddenly run into an issue. I'm trying to fly FSX with EZDOK disabled in order to troubleshoot a few things. Unfortunately, when I close out EZDOK, TrackIR won't work in FSX alone anymore. As soon as I reload EZDOK, I get TrackIR back. So right now, its: No EZDOK - No TrackIR usage. Sigh... Suggestions? Thanks, Stephen

ATC.dll Crash. Should I worry?
Afternoon from the Big Easy, So last night, I finally managed to rid myself of the ntdll.dll crashes associated with My Traffic only to eventually have my lovely NGX flight to San Antonio interrupted mid flight by a random CTD. The culprit of the crash was the ATC.dll. Based on a little research last night, there seems to be a lot of confusion on this one. My question is; should I be worried and start troubleshooting or what not? Most of what I found suggested its a very random CTD caused by conflicting frequencies. Its never happen before and apparently its quite possible it won't happen again. But knowing my luck with FSX, it will probably happen again tonight immediately following 30 minutes of detailed planning and 30 minutes of pre-flight operations and 3 miles of taxiing out. Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks as always. Stephen Luebbert

HELP: Changing Nvidia Inspector Settings Ingame
Something in my NVIDIA inspector settings is creating a conflict with EZDOK camera Need to trouble shoot but first I need to know if it possible to change your NVIDIA inspector settings once FSX is running. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks. Stephen Luebbert

Current Must-Have X-Plane Mods and Scenry and Utiliites?
Morning Pilots, So I am thinking of reinstalling X-Plane over the Thanksgiving break. I have a decent stable of aircraft and purchased the SkyMaxx Pro application for clouds, and I have the free application for the use of the Saitek panels. What is the latest batch of must-have mods for X-plane? I intend to fly general aviation around Louisiana, Texas, Arkansas, and Mississippi. An aircraft that utilizes the new GPS feature would be great too. Also, is there a camera view or application that I haven't discovered yet that enables me to utilize Track-IR without floating all over the aircraft, something similar to FSX or maybe even EZDOK where my position is fixed but I can freely look around in 6-DOF with Track-IR? That out-of-body experience with X-Plane-10 that comes with Track-IR use just kills the realism for me. Big thanks in advance. Stephen Luebbert

SPAD and 2.4
Evening Sim Fans, Did the SPAD software for the SAITEK Pro-Flight panel stop working with 2.4? My panels are generally unusable now due to a sticky, and delayed response at best. The radios work okay for the most part but the other panels are nearly useless. Have I missed something? The panels still work great in FSX. Thanks, Stephen Luebbert

ORBX Airports for P3D
All fantastic responses as usual. My thanks to everyone for the insight and recommendations.

ORBX Airports for P3D
P3D 2.4 finally convinced me to make the big migration. Question. Can all the ORBX airports I have be utilized properly in P3D 2.4 using the Migration software? I only have a few airports that have the new P3D 2 installer built in but some of my favorite airports like KRDD, KSFF, and KBZN are still lacking the updated installer, Any positive experiences? Thanks, Stephen Luebbert

777 Procedures Checklist
Jaker, Simply perfect. Thank you!

777 Procedures Checklist
I apologize. Let me clarify. I'm quite familiar with the aircraft and the tutorial is fantastic. I've flown about ten flights so far. I'm just a "procedural" type of guy and haven't been able to build my own checklist-flows, etc as I didn't for the other PMDG aircraft. There are some great products out there for the NGX, just haven't found something similar for the T7.

777 Procedures Checklist
Evening, Can any of you fine air crewman point me to a good T777 procedures checklist? Something that will take me from cold-and-dark to shutdown and secure procedures? Just looking for something to guide my efforts until FS2 Crew comes out. Thanks as always. Stephen Luebbert

New Computer Build and PMDG Licenses
Brothers, In order to correct the PMDG issues I am having as a result of my ASUS ROG motherboard, the good people at Jetline Systems are replacing my motherboard with a new, upgraded, and non-Asus board. This unfortunately will require a re-install of Windows and of course my entire FSX infrastructure. Ugh. Will I have any issues with my PMDG products working on what will essentially be recognized as a new computer? Thanks as always, Stephen Luebbert

Help: Random Fuel Loss
I have it with both aircraft as well. You are the second person to suggest that. What was your solution?

Help: Random Fuel Loss
Peers, For no reason I can readily identify, my 777 and 737 NGX is randomly losing anywhere from 2-4 pounds of fuel at various and random stages of flight. Today it happen while taking the runway, yesterday it was while reaching cruise and while level at 37,000 feet. Sometimes it only happens once, sometimes several times. I will be flying along, not touching anything, and then my fuel will suddenly drop. Most of the time I notice it when all of a sudden the INSUFFICIENT FUEL suddenly flashes up on the MCP. I've used FSUIPC log to try and find some kind of errant command but nothing is standing out. Im almost always flying for a VA, but I've tried two separate ACARS and it happen on both systems. This is incredibly frustrating since I can't launch a long flight and leave for work for example. Its not happening to other aircraft, just my two big PMDG tubes. Any ideas??? I am open to brainstorming.

Active Sky Next for P3dv2.1
ASN is absoulutely the best weather simulation to date. Simply incredible. As mentioned above, we are waiting for the release of the P3DV2 compatible version which should be out relatively soon. I also agree that the best combination for looks and accuracy is REX Textures and the ASN engine. Hope this helps.

Is J41 rudder operation dependant on start up procedure?
Perhaps, I am missing a step. Care to elaborate? FSUIPC Axis Log, shows a continuous input of the RUDDER_SET even with no controllers attached. The continuous input of this phantom controller, prevents the use of the rudder. Perhaps, this is the way the aircraft models the lack of rudder performance without propery hydraulic pressure. However, I have learned even with a clean FSX config file, no FSUIPC, and no addons, the phenomenon is present. It only exists with the PMDG J41, and only exist when the aircraft is on the gound. Extrememly frustrating.

FS Genesis and That Whole Vector Thing
Evening, So while I wait patiently for updated installers and patches for the Airbus Extended, RealAir products, the A2A line-up, and one day, PMDG, I started looking at terrain. I have Global installed for P3D 2 and I own FSGenesis. Will FSGenesis work in P3D? Is there a recommended installation procedure? I miss the detail in elevation. If I am fortunate enough to have Global for Landclass, Genesis for Mesh, then all I need is something for Vector. The Iceland demo looks very promising for FTX GLOBAL VECTOR due out in mid-December. Is the general consensus of the forum to hold out until then or is there another reputable Vector product for P3D? And while I'm eating my salad and thinking of all things P3D-transition, what about Carenado aircraft and Air Hauler? Any luck or guidance on those two products in P3D? I think that's a total of four questions. My apologies. The Army is sending me to Haiti for a week so I'm hoping to have answers by next weekend so I can invest sometime enjoying this great new simulation. Thanks Guys, Stephen
