Thanks for this suggestion! I did this with one exception, couldn't find any paperclips, so a pair of my wife's hair clips had to do... Lets hope she doesn't go looking for them!! Seems to be holding now, like you said it's not pretty but so far it's doing the job.

Hi All, I've got an x52 pro from Saitek that I love, its a great stick with one issue; the PS/2 cable. I've recently got back into simming and using my oculus rift, which is great. THere is one small problem, because of the way I need to configure everything to be near to hand whilst flying, I often have to have the joystick on a tray on my lap, or on a custom made joystick holder fitted to my chair. The problem is that if the chair, I, or the Cat(!) move it often pulls the cable out of the joystick, which has resulted in several fatal virtual accidents... Does anyone have a nifty way of securing that cable in the hole that works? It's driving me mad! Thanks, James

Cost isn't a Major concern. To be honest I like your idea of P3D for the heavies and FSX:SE for VFR etc... Does FSX:SE have any memory management fixes over FSX? Also, does anyone know if the likes of PMDG have an 'upgrade' option to get the P3D version cheaper if you already own the FSX version? Edit: Further question, if I buy a v3 P3d license, and then in 6 months, P3d upgrades to their 64-Bit version, would I have to spent circa $200 again?

Hi guys, Been away from the flight sim world for a few years owing to other persuits. However recently got the pang to get back into it, especially after using my Oculus Rift on other sims and really enjoying it. I left the simming world before P3D had really matured, and long before the FSX Steam version came out. So now I'm left with a little of an issue, which is 'THE' flightsim I should set myself back up with? One thing that bears heavy on my mind is that I have spent many hundreds (Maybe even a thousand) on add-ons for FSX, especially the P3d and A2A offerings - I'd rather not lose access to those... I'm especially interested in which version is having less OOM issues these days, smoothness of course is also a big factor.... I have a powerful PC that should be able to run everything fine (i7, 770GTX etc...) Many thanks in advance...

Hi Bert sorry have been away from the internet a couple of days. Yes all seems to be working fine. I reworked the list so the VOR replaces the default moving map that the aircraft comes with as I'm trying to navigate without the aid of GPS like devices - just a stationary map, a compass and VOR!

Hi Bert, All the window slots all the way up to 13 are occupied, If I put it to window14 how will I open the gauge? Thanks

Hi Bert, thanks very much! I'll give it a go tomorrow!

Thanks Bert - how exactly do you add the file in? I'm not too sure what I'm doing when editing cfg files..

Hi, I'm trying to add a VOR gauge to an aircraft (the A2A B17) so that I can fly a radial and see how far I am from the beacon. Is it possible to do this and if so are there any good gauges that I can add that have the required functionality? I don't need the gauge in the VC, but a pop up gauge on something like CTRL-Shift 1 would be good. Thanks, Sev

Just thought I'd update on the problem: I tried all your suggestions and some more but kept getting the same error. I'd been thinking about a complete FSX re-install anyway, as I hadn't done it in over a year and I have changed a few pieces of hardware since... So spent this week since last Saturday completely reinstalling everything and finally got FSX to a re-built point last night. Goodness, I didn't realise how much stuff I'd purchased for FSX over the years! To my pleasure and surprise, now I seem to be enjoying considerably better frames. There are probably multiple factors contributing to my recent boon, not least the fact that I spent most of a day setting up and balancing my settings in FSX.cfg! So far, I haven't seen the error, so hopefully we've got that one sorted too! Thanks once again for your help Jim!

Hi All, I've just purchased FTX Global, and whilst I absolutely love the view from low down, from any great height (I'd say from around FL100 upwards) everything still looks rather...samey. Just row after row of the same scenery, which is what I thought FTX Global was supposed to sort out? Maybe something is wrong for me but that's how it looks... If this is the way FTX global is meant to be, is there any way of improving the scenery from high altitude? I'd happily pay for something, but freeware would be a bonus! But also is there anything that doesn't have a massive impact on frames? Many thanks,

Thanks Jim, much appreciation for the super fast reply! I'll give your suggestions a try and see how I get on.

Hi All, Sadly, after thinking going DX10 would eliminate these.... I got the latest CTD Three times, twice whilst loading up a flight, and once in flight about an hour in. No OOM, VAS was fine! Got my settings set pretty low so as to acheive nice smooth flight, so no worries about high settings... Something is amiss.

Personally for me it's the JS4100 every time. Especially with FS2CREW, it brings a whole new dimension to the sim. Some call it a 'lite' simulation. But would you call a fully functional regional turboprop with all systems fully functional lite? The only missing thing is failure simulation, personally I like to fly without failures anyway so it works for me, and I've got many hundreds of happy hours in the Jetstream.

Just found this on my local Amazon deals. Useful to anyone in or around the Midlands in the UK - I think I'll make myself a booking (but would rather their 737 sim!) http://local.amazon.co.uk/Nottingham/B00FPQ4OHE

Somewhat misleading title, there has never been any mention or suggestion that the man had any form of experience. Also, someone passed away, have some respect.

This is already in the hangar chat forum....

That'll teach pilots to have the fish before a flight! In all seriousness, I'm rather impressed. A non pilot, with no flying experience. Manages to get talked down and land an aircraft, in the dark, with no lights. There has to be a little more to this - I hardly think a complete novice would manage anything other than converting himself into a fireball.

I wouldn't count on it - latest post from JD himself said that he's put v5 on hold indefinitely. From what he said I'd highly doubt that he'll return to coding it. Not impossible though....

Hi Andrew, good to see you posting here. On a semi-related side note, is there still a plan to have an updated service pack for the Concorde after the Airbus release? And are there any specific plans of what will go into that update?

Hi Tom, Thought that was the case. I agree Pro ATC isn't perfect..... yet but it will get there eventually. At least it is supported by ongoing development so lets hope that in another year it will be what everyone expects. In fairness its leaps and bounds ahead of what it was when first released!

I do sometimes chuckle to myself - Lefteris once said when asked in 2011 that if he were to release the 'Bus any later than the latter half of 2012 it would be far too late..... Two years later...... Still, shall look forward to seeing how it performs!

I've used Pro ATC for the last 6 months or so now. The latest version for me is very stable, and I've had numerous successful flights. The only one problem is vectoring at the end of the flight, but it's handling of SID/STARs wayyy makes up for that. I do hear good things about PFE and do wonder, how does that one handle SID/STARS and can you update it's nav database?

Mitch, this post is perhaps a little melodramatic, don't you think? I'm sure Steve will answer if his DX 10 fixer is having any effect in due course. Now on to my results, I'm afraid I tried your settings as closely as possible and was unable to recreate the results, DX9 was as it ever is and DX10 reigned supreme! I personally suspect that your little boon is down to a coincidental change on your system.

Goodness Mitch - I don't think that I've ever seen anyone quite so animated about something they've found in FSX!! Any chance you could upload your CFG for me to have a look at and try to closely emulate in my setup? EDIT - Sorry Mitch, I see you posted it in the other thread
