  1. I can smell the Hawaiian air. Great shots.
  2. I agree with Mitch. I did what he just said and it is beautiful!
  3. A belated thank you for your responses. The SSD that had P3D 2.5 crashed so when I bought a new one, I also got P3D 3.5 and when I found it didn't have the same documentation I thought maybe I had screwed up the install. Fortunately I have all those printouts from 2.5. The day after my post my Polaroid 55" 4K, 60Hz TV died. I got lucky there because Fry's had a carry out sale on a LG 55" 4K, IPS, 60/120Hz, 4096x2160 TV for $599 with a promo code. One really good thing is I could stop it from over scanning and it supports the 3 different color formats. Things are looking good. Last week I was back at Fry's to pick up some cables for my non-flying computer and stopped to see when they might get the EVGA GTX1080FTW. The salesman turned and pointed to a stocking cart with the card sitting on top. Then it was reserve it, drive 15 miles home, get the money, return, go broke, get the card, return home. Whew! Things are looking better. Take care
  4. Very nice!
  5. It amazes me that so many think they did this on purpose!
  6. Is there any documentation for any flyable aircraft (other than Alabao Extra)? If so, how do I find it? Thanks in advance
  7. You haven't lived until you've spent a week programing in Fortran 4 and then on the way to the collator you drop the box of cards on the floor. After you think you've gotten them all picked up, including the ones that got stepped on and bent, it's time for a cry and a good stiff drink because it's probably going to take a few days to get them sorted out. Ah yes, the good old days!
  8. Iced pitot tube?
  9. I have always been disappointed with AMD.
  10. You can't just turn on DX10 preview and expect it to work better. You need to check the DX10 box and then quit the sim. Then you need to save your current configuration file and let FSX build a new one. Otherwise, you have FSX trying to use In order to use DX10 , you need to check the preview box and then quit FSX. Then you need to backup your configuration file and let FSX build another one when you restart. Otherwise, you have FSX trying to use both DX9 and DX10 to do the same thing. It works, but not well. Once you have it working, get Steve DX10 Fixer and start fixing some of the anomalies and a new sim. Good luck
  11. I had this problem before, where I had a "brakes" message on all aircraft and I could do nothing about it. The fix was simply to go through and look for and delete any double entry assignments. Wish I could remember the specifics, but hopefully this will help.
  12. Thanks for the reports Michael. The second one was very interesting and I may go back to the first when I'm not so tired.
  13. Wood eye! Wood eye! :smile:
  14. Welcome and enjoy your stay! Good luck on PPL training. I think flight simming can be a lot of help.
  15. I'm running Pilot's Global Mesh, Orbx Global & LC, Vector, PNW and most other regions and airports in North America. I have no problems that can be traced to Vector in either FSX-SE (DX10 with Steve's Fixer) or P3Dv3.1.
  16. A lot of us are now using 4k monitors and TVs (3840 x 2160). I was wondering if you plan on making the menu bar and notifications scalable so that they can be read on these monitors. Right now none of the flight sims on my computer are very legible except for P3Dv3.1. It is the only one that I can read while sitting at my computer. The rest of them I have to stand up and lean in close to read. Thanks a lot,
  17. Look at the position of the sun. In DFS it is much lower than in the other shots. That could account for some of the variation in color.
  18. I think it's Heron's Nest. Regardless, great shots.
  19. I am in the same position as you. What I use is the Saitek combat pedals and I have the right pedal set with the toe at the lowest angle. This makes it easier to calibrate and you operate them with your heels on the bar at the bottom and when you need to brake you just slide your right foot up like your friend suggested. Good Luck!
  20. Thanks to a computer crash, I started over with a new build around an i76700k, an OEM Win10 pro OS, and FSX-SE. The only things I salvaged were my hard drives and SSDs plus I added a 1 terabyte SSD 'C' drive. Other than installing the legacy SDK' I also found it necessary to add to install NET. Framework 3.5, 4.5 comes with Win10. With those changes everything installs and works perfectly. Of course the faster hardware doesn't hurt either. :smile:
  21. If you're running your boat traffic slider at 100%, that is probably your problem. Henrik says that slider should only be at 10%. He also says that you can run leisure boat traffic at whatever you want. Almost forgot, the ship traffic needs to be at least 5%. Hope that helps.
  22. Happy New Year from Oregon!
  23. Double check the angle. I only say this because the usually come packaged set in the mid position.
