Mr.midnight

Hello Ray , Im sure im late in this but I'm going to attempt to install RC4 to X-plane 12, is there still a link to get RC4. [email protected] Thanks.....RobertC

Thank you sir, that did it. RobertC

When I click this button the box will not open for me to calculate, it greys out at the top heading when i click on this button. I will choose departure and destination and then i will attempt to click this button and nothing happens , no box will open for me to calculate. There must be something im doing wrong. RobertC

Thats the problem when I push that button nothing pops up it just greys out. I set a departure airport then set a destination airport then hit the calculate button no box opens , it just greys out. not for sure what is going on. Thanks....RobertC

Hello folks, I have a problem that just started happening a couple of days ago, im trying to create a flight plan by choosing my departure then my destination, but then when i try to hit the calculate button it grays out and nothing happens. I get no box that opens up so that you can calculate your route , it just greys out. Is there somthing im doing wrong? Thanks......RobertC

Hello folks, im sure this has been ask before but im wondering how to inject the type of aircraft I fly into lil nav so that i can plan the right amount of fuel and cargo, I fly the avanti p-180 and i want to add this plane to the list. Thanks.......................RobertC

Thanks Folks............Robert

Well folks I must say I'm really at a lost on if its worth it anymore , this software is like nothing I have ever dealt with. My experience with this software and hardware is high, been doing this so long it's a part of my life and marriage:). Could not fly In real life so I got Into simming , started with one Mac computer (5613 ) Started flying using a Macitosh and found it limited in flying resorses , and started building PC,s. That's when one monitor went to two , three then four then five. In reality I'm really running a eight monitor set up running three networked computers and networked software. In fact I have been using several monitors when 98 was the operating system. Microsoft flightsim taught me a ton about computers and video cards , enough to get me to school and get my A+ and N+ in computers. This was after all the years of building computers to get my credintuals , and found that experience wins out. My problem with FSX it seems alive and fluid , as the computing world got more and more advanced the more fsx gets worst. Three or fours years ago the same set up I had little problems and absolutely no lock up well maybe a few but no where near the problem I'm having today . Perhaps going back to FS9 is a good try as to get rid of this having a computer pushed to 4.6 and beyond to get it run . Here is my Set up. Computer 1. 3770k@ 4.5 , W7, 64, ult , gtx 285 , 3 Tera hd , 8 gig 1866 ram, FSX accellated , g boost, Rex, opus fsx , wideview, widetraffic, fsuipc , level d, Computer 2. 2660k @ 4.2 , W7 64 ult, gtx 9800 , 1 Tera hd. 4 gig, level d , Rex, Opusfdx, Computer 3. 3400 amd@ 2.6 , w7 64 ult , onboard graphics , radar contact , flightsim commander, fsbuild . Been networking our awhile . I may have to revamp my set up but as far as FSX I'm out of magic tricks and patience , Thought about Prepard3d but from what I'm reading its not a upgrade from my vantage point And besides I have enough headaches for free. At this moment not for sure where to go , use to know which direction to go , have none this time. After all the tweaking and following directions to to the letter a half million times, and reloading and reloading and reloading and more reloading and tons of fixes , it ain't getting better in fact it's causing me to rethink my abilities. As far as my hardware it's in good order . My system with the 3770k I even delidded the CPU to get lower heat temps and I did it with temps at full load thru prime 95 and Occt. Temps at full load for 4 or more hours never got above 59 or 60c at full load . After reloading Fsx from scratch for the billionth time with all fixings there was not guarantee that it would run , might run at the beginning but would deteriorate in the end. And now this problem with the views now has me baffled , never have I seen that one. So now I'm looking at my set up having not a clue in which direction to go other than reloading everything including the operating system. I even ran FSX without no add ons just vanilla and that view problem came up , it worked one time. But my love for this sim , I will reload everything from scratch and hope I get it right so that I can get in a flight or two before it starts to fail. Or go to just one screen and one computer and maybe one add on and sacrifice all just to enjoy flying. You Folks are a great help to me and thank for hearing me vent ..........Robert

Well folks this is just about the end of the line for me and FSX. I'm going to have to find a new hobby after about twenty three + years. I cannot believe that fsx has gotten worst than better after all the advancement in computers. I cannot believe this new problem I'm having , and I'm stuck and cannot go forward , I don't have the will or patients to fix this. My problem now is that when I open fsx to play and try to open my views to move around on my screens they won't open where you can see them they are there they are just invisible. I only get the front main view . This is a whole new problem and it is a game stopper, in fact I have reloaded Fsx several times . I have the gold addition , and after loading the fsx gold it will work one time as to openi g a view in windowed or full mode. After that no more opening a view , you can open a view but you cannot see it. This is a major game changer as I cannot correct this problem. I'm running 5 Monitors with [email protected], w7 64 ult, 285 vid,. I truly cannot believe this is happening , I'm at a lost for words on why this is happening , more and more goes wrong as time goes on with Fsx. So what is the solution for this fix if there is one. I'm at a complete stand still at this point. Thanks again for your help....................twenty year flyer Robert

Thanks for the reply and your correct , I figured out that I don't need 1.0. Got everything loaded , also I have a question about Uiatomationcore.dll, is the one recommended unregistered do I have to do any thing other than putting it in the FSX folder. Thanks..............Robert

Hello my friend im just wondering on the set up I need to get mirosoft.net 1.1 thru 4.5 , I have downloaded the tool to see which net im missing. so far im missing 1.0 , 1.1, and 4.5. you also state that I must use 32 bit , im having trouble downloading it because my system will not take 32 bit. how do I load microsot.net sotware , what am I missing. thanks....Robert

Hello folks glad to be back in the Crash to Desktop , didn't want to feel left out. I must tell you I followed every direction to get my system up and running , and I finally did it , I think. Im running W7 64 ult, 3770k @ 4.6 , 285 gtx vid,8 gig , three tera. did everything that paul recommended in his article on software and hardware guide. I must say that all is well except im back to lock ups and such . All I did was that I know of was to increase the mgh from 4.5 to 4.6 ghz and that was when it decided to crash after a full load up of fsx. I know I should have done that before I loaded fsx but I could not help myself:) Cant believe im at 4.6 and at this moment im running OCCT to stress the system so far so good after 4 hours , So im wondering why FSX stopps working. Here is my appcrash , maybe there is something im missing.

Hello folks I'm wondering how you match up a CPU and a GPU. I'm running a 3770k @3.6mhg, and at the moment I'm using my old card a gtx 285 1gig mem. I see a few shimmers here and there but not all the time,?its a good card. I'm planning on getting a up to date card and I read the great hardware and software guide by Paul J. He made a statement saying that your vid card should be as hot as your CPU , I'm not fully understanding what he means. Are you saying that the speed of my CPU @ 4.6 that the GPU should be running at that speed. Can you give me a measurement of what you mean. Since I'm going out to get the best vid card that I can find I'm going to overclock my 285 to its max. Core speed on a 285 can go up to 700 or more , at least that is what I'm herding, So can you give me the correct terminology in selecting a new vid card. I believe if I overclock my 285 I will get better results, do you good folks agree. Thanks............Robert

Hello folks i know it must be me , but i cannot seem to find Paul J. FSX guide , it says it cannot find it on your site. Went on my Iphone And it came right up , what am i missing. it says sorry we cannot find that. Thanks.........Robert

Thank you Gentleman for your feed back especially Robert from Ohio , thank you for not making me not so alone out there , I to miss my calling to become a pilot and this is it for me to continue the dream. And I will start from scratch and do all those test as prescribed . After all that is part of the fun...Thanks again......Robert .
