  1. Active IPs in the military. Small correction to be pedantic: it's the T-45C. KLN-900.
  2. Last I checked, the Milviz store has it now.
  3. There are actually 5 levels available in the FSX metar format. Moot though as we are not using it. We have our own way of locating general area precipitation intensities and then controlling it to sync with cloud densities.
  4. The Master caution reset is a small black button on the right console by the generator switches. Provided your fuel isn't too low it should go out. As for the INS targets, you made sure you are getting your hemispheres correct in the lat/lon inputs (ie N/S/E/W)? Also, the longer you let the align light blink (without letting the aircraft move) the more accurate your position will be. It does drift and requires position updates at times.
  5. As the developer, I see no logical reason to prevent these gauges from working alongside the WXAdvantage. There may be some slight differences in the precipitation map on screen and the precipitation out the window depending on how the weather engine is controlling the precipitation, but the WXAdvantage should run just fine. Furthermore, I would appreciate those having such issues to report directly to us on the WXAdvantage support forum (http://www.realenvironmentxtreme.com/forums/index.php?/forum/179-milviz-rex-wx-advantage-radar/), and note if these gauges are involved. @rstough he could be missing any one of several libraries preventing the gauge from loading.
  6. The gauges involved are XML gauges not dll. You would look for references to MPD and MPCD among the list of gauges.
  7. REX will be offering a API for developers like PMDG to integrate the WX Advantage into their systems.
  8. No. It will work even with default FSX weather themes or user custom weather.
  9. Only precip. It controls the ambient precipitation state so you don't get rain without clouds though.
  10. Same Flight Gear scam that has been going on for a while.
  11. You on the REX forum? I will try to help you there as I will be needing some things from you that would clutter this thread up a bit.
  12. The precip control is similar to ASN's technique (low level injection) with some differences. The result is pretty much the same though. You can try setting your radar range to the lowest value and watch how the precip effect changes as you fly through returns. The cell location technique is proprietary but suffice to say it gives pretty much spot on results.
  13. Not entirely related and I think got fixed with more recent versions of accufeel although it is still recommended to disable it for the F-86 due to flight model behaviour conflicts. @deimos256 it can take 24 hours minimum depending on Steve's availability.
  14. No promises....We don't have the source for one of the modules so if it doesn't work we cant do anything about it.
  15. Removing the one factor that can make the difference between disaster and safety where computers cannot go isn't going to help things either. Auto-pilot, auto-land, auto-takeoff, auto-taxi, auto-flight attendant.......and auto crash when something goes so wrong that the computer cant make the right decision that the human mind can. A cascade of bad decisions by a human being still has a small hope of being reversed until one gets into that square corner. But when a computer glitch occurs that locks the human mind out of interfering and does something wrong, hope effectively becomes 0 unless there is another way to lock the computer out and restore control to the pilot. All said and done, the human mind most certainly can make mistakes. But it can also recover from mistakes. That's something a computer cannot do. Especially when that mistake is hardwired in by the mind that programmed it. Computers are not infallible. They are as prone as the mind behind them to error.
  16. Im assuming you haven't seen the post here: http://www.milviz.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4383 The reason there is no certainty as to which product will incorporate SVS is due to 1) it isn't finished yet (still in R&D stages), 2) MV has yet to decide whether it will actually go into the 350i, and 3) my personal plan when I embarked on it is to create something that can be integrated by other devs into their products kindof like ASN. There are many small EFIS displays for GA aircraft out there that can do this eg Garmin, Aspen Evolution, Avidyne Entegra, GrandRapids Technologies, Dynon Skyview, MGL Avionics, BlueMountain Avionics, and Advanced Flight Systems to name a few. Of course, my ultimate goal is to do a demo of this: I would love to do this dreamed-of demo using the NGX HUD but for that I would need PMDG's approval and cooperation. I have attempted to get hold of RSR (via Ryan and Kyle in particular since RSR wont receive PMs here) but unfortunately to no avail.... For what it is worth, Rockwell Collins has been offering SVS upgrades for their HUDs and the Proline 21/Fusion for a while now, and Honeywell has been offering it for years on their various displays. I think some airlines have purchased these upgrades in a few rare instances. I guess its not standard yet though for a tube.
  17. Yes the upgrade to v2 is a separate purchase.
  18. Depends on what sort of extra files their gauges and modules in the sim needs to create and such....And security systems sometimes get nailed as false positives by the AV programs out there.
  19. ROFL. MODS!!! Lock this thread quickly! They have taken the taboo debates about P3D EULAs and sim comparisons underground using code names and false identities! Its a conspiracy!
  20. Dave any suggestions on what those of us should do to stay secure who are operating on USB cellphone modems and thus require VPNs like Wippien due to the lack of the necessary firmware?
  21. I have checked things over and there will be no incompatibilities in SE as far as the terrain feature goes. No promises regarding other planned features.
