I notice that there is an un-install entry in the Windows registry, so it appears that the days of X-Plane addons not touching the Windows registry are over. This may (or may not) have something to do with it. There is also a lot of stuff which I believe they have done outside of the X-Plane engine - this may well need to be coded differently for different O/S's. Of course this is pure conjecture on my part - what do I know anyway? :wink: FWIW, the IXEG 737b also has an uninstall entry - to date, these two are the only such occurrences that I have ever seen.

Really beautiful piece of software craftsmanship. Worth every cent IMHO. Huge fun - especially that active co-pilot doing all the learning-curve work! Please continue creating aircraft for X-Plane.

I refer particularly to: 5 "Plusartickel" published in German in FS Magazin between 2013 and 2015 (X-Plane-Reiseführer!) ; XP10 Travel Guide - 4821 nm across the Sea; Various product reviews in PC Pilot Many posts in different forums (including here at AVSIM) commenting, correcting and presenting a balanced adult view. You have no doubt also produced other stuff which I haven't come across yet. I don't think you need to be shy about starting a regular blog - you write well in both English and German and I am sure you have achieved quite a following - there are so many who write either nonsense, or simply re-hash press releases - IMHO you have always written worthwhile stuff. I repeat... I, for one, would be delighted if you started a regular "big" blog.

Mario, For a long time I have followed your writings, reviews and comments with great respect. I, for one, would love to read a regular blog written by you. If you are worried about coming across as being biased, a simple disclaimer up front is all you need.

Scroll with mousewheel is best imho. Of the options asked for, click and hold is better than click and drag

Ha, 16 GB ! You ain't seen nuttin' yet... B) On of the first addons you will want to install is an enhanced mesh for USA, Europe, Japan and Oz. It's only 99GB! It's donationware, or freeware of you are a bit financially tight this January :o Once you have seen and used it, you will actually want to donate. Go here: http://www.alpilotx.net/ And that's just the start of the fun....

We X-plane aviators await your questions with bated breath. Always ready to help if we can. One thing first... X-Plane is not FSX. It works differently, looks different and feels different. If you can't seem to get even the simplest things to work, you are in good company - we all battled at the beginning - just persevere and ask.

I bought it and read it cover to cover. Some of the articles from past editions of PC Pilot Magazine have just been reproduced, but there is also quite a bit of new stuff including V10.3 references . It's a useful collation of diverse X-plane stuff aimed at the newbie x-plane user. I am not sure it should have been billed as "The Official Guide" though, since Laminar Research did not produce or author it.

I just came across a new "special" publication from the editors of PC Pilot Magazine called X-Plane 10 - The Official Guide I wouldn't call it "official" since it was not produced by Laminar Research, but otherwise it is quite good and provides many comparisons direct between FSX and X-Plane. It is sufficiently new that it even has X-Plane 10.3 info in it. For anyone thinking of trying out X-Plane as their future flight simulator, this magazine is well worth it's cover price. I have no connection to Key Publishing so I don't really think this post qualifies as belonging in the Announcements and Bargains section. ^_^ It's just a "heads up".

Stanislaw Your patch works fine. The interior hangar lighting and the flood lights mounted above are really brilliant. Since you are in the process of creating a patch, there is a tiny insignificant error in the Log.txt file viz., WARNING: texture Custom Scenery/EETN_Tallinn_XP_high/fac/fence1.png has a size that is not a power of 2; it may not render correctly. WARNING: texture Custom Scenery/EETN_Tallinn_XP_high/fac/fence2.png has a size that is not a power of 2; it may not render correctly. WARNING: texture Custom Scenery/EETN_Tallinn_XP_high/fac/concretefence_wire.png has a size that is not a power of 2; it may not render correctly. Obviously some fence somewhere is not being displayed. This is no doubt easily fixable. All in all, your EETN-Tallinn scenery is really very good indeed and makes a magnificent improvement to the default scenery which really is a bit of a mess.

Bought it. Love it.

Sorry, I didn't make this as clear as I should have. Mariodonick is quite correct in what he says. But when trying to find a fault which is illusive, it helps to start from scratch and add in stuff bit by bit - comparing the log file each time and testing for when the memory leak appears.

You have a large number of files which cannot be found - according to the log.txt file. Both scenery and aircraft. There are other errors as well. Too many errors IMHO. If I were you I would back up your existing X-Plane folder and re-install a fresh copy in an empty folder from scratch. Check your log file for errors. There should be none. Then backup this log file and test for any OOM errors. If all is ok, copy some of your addon stuff into the new folder and test again. Compare the new log file to the original. Continue doing this in small stages fixing any errors as yo go until you locate your OOM error. Then please report Back with your discoveries. That way, we all can learn.
