Go ahead and post the pics and provide details as to what objects they are. I have all RWY12 objects working in DX10.

What is the model and what object library is it from? I'll take a look at it to see if I can fix it for you.

navysub, Shoot me a PM and I can convert the files that you need in order to be FSXDX10 compatible. As part of the RTMM team I've done it a million times with files in our extensive scenery libraries. http://return.mistymoorings.com/

Just for fun I opened the FSX folder in an Explorer window, clicked on the Fixer icon and got the "FSX is running" message; closed the window and the message went away. Who'd have ever thunk it? Live and learn!

Did another system reboot and the problem went away. Oh well!

I've been using The Fixer from the very beginning and I just upgraded to 2.8 Installation went fine, installed libraries, etc. Now when I attempt to run The Fixer I get a message that says "Please close FSX before running DX10 Scenery Fixer." The only problem is, is that FSX isn't running and I haven't run it since my last reboot. I'd try uninstalling and reinstalling, but I can't uninstall the libraries in order to do it. Help!

You can download the default shaders from here http://www.nzfsim.org/index.php?dsp=downloads&f_sort=fixer

FSX may have been orphaned by MS but certainly not by it's enormous user base, which will be there for years to come. Look at the huge fan base that FS2004 enjoys after all of these years. P3D still has huge comparability issues that need to be addressed before it gains anywhere near the following that FSX currently enjoys.

Hold the shift key as you zoom and it will zoom in (or out) at a much slower speed.

Huh? Have you ever taken a look at the "How To" guide? With your rig you should get much better FPS and visuals if you set it up properly. I do agree that maybe he should meticulously try the ver. 3.2.2 of DX10 fixes to get a basic feel for life inside the DX10 world before going whole hog..

"With all due respect, I do think that it is pretty clear that the "Dx10 preview" must be set. It might otherwise be called the Dx9 fixer?" The Fixer automatically enables DX10 so you don't need to put a check in the Preview box.

Image backup, image backup, image backup...on a regular(weekly) basis! Saves a WHOLE ton of frustration and panic.

I never had any problems with EZDOK using ver 3.2.2 of the earlier DX10 fixes or with the fixer presently. EZDOK seems to be a strange bird at times for many users.

The KB2670838 update caused all kinds of problems on my Win 7/64 system; everything from keeping Windows Live Mail from starting to keeping FSX from starting as well. Took me a while to track it down as the culprit.

Why wait for the fixer and just go ahead and dip your toe into the water now?
