Ok I don't know if I'm following this correctly. I have the PreceiptFX installed on my computer. I copy the fx_contrail files onto my desktop. I then rename them with the vaportrail name? I tested this out and I see the wing vorticles are the contrails now but the contrails coming off the engines are still default.

Does anyone know why the PMDG 747 with PrecipitFX installed is still showing the default contrails. The -800 model is showing the nice ones but not the 400. I've reinstalled tons of times but it does not fix the issue. Any ideas? Thanks everyone! John V

I was flying the PMDG 747F and I noticed that the nice looking contrails I see on my other planes isn't showing up on my 747 from PMDG. I have all my settings up high (special effects etc). I uninstalled and reinstalled the package but its still showing the default contrails. Any ideas why? Thanks John V

I did the same thing. Uninstall the program, then reinstall it but I still have short contrails and very dim. Not sure what I can do differently. I honestly don't want to use the default ones. I use active sky but I wouldn't think that should be a problem.

Hey Keven, I uninstalled it and reinstalled it but it still seems rather hard to see the contrail and seems rather short still. I know sometimes in rw I see them short and long. But it's still very hard to see from tower view. Heres a picture. Here's another image. I have special effects turned all the way up.

Great product guys! Just bought it and I'm loving it! Just one thing I have noticed. The contrail seems rather short and from tower view you can barely see it. I know someone posted it already but just wondering if there is an update I still have to get or you guys are working on this. But anyone one fantastic product! Thanks,

Yeah, I have both bleed switchs open, and I set the correct alt in the press panel, I set the switch to the down position or Press position, but it does not pressurize the cabin at all. after about maybe 10 min of flying i get a Cabin Alt warning. I believe this is a bug, in the king air 200 and C90 the pressurization worked fine.

Yep, I noticed that the first flight I did with the 1900. I sent a support ticket regarding the pressurization bug.

Yep I am having the same trouble, I sent them a support about that.

Yep, I saw those too while I was flying this plane more. I sent them an email about the night bugs, are you having trouble with the pressurization too?

I hope they see this and fix it in their next patch/update!

I just did a test flight from KDEC-KFWA. Taking off to cruise was perfect. Only on landing I noticed some bugs. The weather turned from good to bad in FWA. I was on final approach into KFWA with less then two mile vis. When I landed I noticed that the Left Landing light was not illuminating on the ground and the bottom beacon was not displaying on the ground correct. I just saw a solid light on the ground where it should be flashing. Also when I was turning the lighting for the cabin and I clicked the reading switch, it seem to dim all the lights inside and outside too. Another bug I found was the VSI is displaying half. I noticed this on the B200. I thought they would have fixed this by now, But otherwise it was a good flight. John

Hey fellow simmers! I just bought this plane yesterday and I have to say that this Carenado's best product ever. I have one issue, I ran the installer for the RXP530, and when I got inside the plane it does not turn on. Any ideas why this could be? Thanks

This might be a bug for the C152 and the C172.... I don't have those planes but I have a bunch of other planes from them and there are some bugs that never get fix. I guess you can send them an support ticket and see what they say..

Thanks for all of the suggestions guys!!! It has not done it this whole week so far... I am still doing tests! John

Did you check in your flight-Sim all variants when you are browsing through the planes?

This is surprising! I love the bonanza!!!! :biggrin:

Sorry for the late reply... I have been using the BayTower RV7, the Aerosoft DA20, Carenado A36 and I tried it on a default Cessna.... I went into the sound settings for windows 7 and disable a enhancement feature... It has not been doing it ever since I change that!!!. Maybe it is fixed... I shall seeee!!! Thanks for the reply!!

Hey everyone! I have been having this really annoying problem lately. Whenever I am starting up a flight and I am in the VC I notice a crackling/popping sound... I know this is not what the plane is suppose to sound like.. I thought maybe it was because I am on the ground.. So I took-off and I still hear that annoying sound! I was reading other forums and they told me different solutions that might help. All of those solutions did not help at all. I reinstalled and updated the drivers... Still the same sound. I was hoping if one of you have had the same problem and were able to fix it! Thanks John

Thanks for the awesome checklist!!!

Where can I download this checklist? I don't see the file?

I know this is a minor thing but they still forgot to add the white nav lights on the trailing edge of the wing tips!

For some odd reason, I have a light beam coming from the landing light/taxi light in the DA40 3 bladed model. The 2 bladed model does not show this... is there a fix? Here's the picture... http://s1015.beta.photobucket.com/user/pilotman893/media/2012-11-30_13-6-18-656.png.html?sort=3&o=21 Thanks

WHOOOPS!!! :Shocked:

I absolutely love this aircraft!!! I did a 4hr 25 min flight from Chicago to Lake Charles.... What a smooth flight!! :biggrin: I just hope that they fix some bugs I noticed (ex. White Nav light not turning on, the tempt on the PFD shows it in C but it is really F) Just tiny things I noticed.
