  1. 2 // 21 // 2015 Dheirin, just sent you an E-Mail for a purchase I recently made, should you be reading this, should you read this after reading the email and support ticket - go ahead and disregard this. Posted : 2/21/2015 - 4:51pm CST Jetranger
  2. I Delete anything in the Aircraft CFG File that doesn't have to do with making the Aircraft Actually Fly and operate or the Camera Views. I see in the "Descriptions" area a lot , a whole lotta unnecessary jibberish, all about the plane, when it flew, who flew it, when it was made, when it was sold, and or resold etc etc etc,,,,,, I keep the Aircraft CFG Files Bare Bones, only what truly needed !! Don't need an entire book wrote in the Description area of unnecessary Jibberish, all that could be put in a separate Read Me file if wanted. To date , I have 4,992 Aircraft in my FSX Gold / Acceleration , most I injected them myself manually, only took 2 years. I have very few problems so far with my FSX Sim, I also take out and Delete any and all PDF Files and all DIZ Files and read me files out of all Aircraft folders, if its a PDF File in regards to operation of the Aircraft for reference , I create a separate Folder outside of FSX for those to refer back to later if needed.

The Avelina for Flight Simulator is packed solid with tons of gadgets and gizmos, things you never thought would be in a plane.This is a list of some of the features of this 'voyage into tomorrow', the Elektra RG by Avelina. Unique sound pack that features the whine or whir of the Negev aircooled motors to the muffled mini APU jet recharger. Avelina Link : http://www.lionheartcreations.com/Avelina.html View Video

  6. Name: Douglas DC-3 by Just Flight Flying Formations & Stuff Category: FSX Aircraft Date Added: 21 November 2013 - 02:02 PM Submitter: Jetranger Short Description: None Provided Just Flights Douglas DC3 for FSX , really Nice Vintage Propliner, fairly well detailed inside & Out. Great to Fly - Fully Detailed Cockpit and Passenger Cabin, like flying the real thing ! http://www.justflight.com/product/dc-3-legends-of-flight-boxed View Video
  7. Ummm, I wish they'd came out with the "Vintage Convair Jetliner" 880 , instead of the DC-8. Just my preference of course. this is not the DC-8 below, but the Convair 880, from HJG group, tho they look somewhat similar. I repainted in the ELVIS theme ! Thank Ya, Thank Ya, vurry Much !
  8. I must say, I've had very few problems with my FSX Gold/ Acceleration edition, tho I don't have any of those supposed "other" flight sim enhancements installed in my FSX Gold edition. Tho I've got installed few Payware sceneries and Quality Freeware scenery. and as last checked right about 5,000 Aircraft in my Simulator, 95% of them Manually I put in myself, cause I rarely will trust any Auto Installer, and I want to see whats going to be Injected into my sim, before it just goes in there, and I've managed to Catch some mistakes and a bunch of needless other type files that didn't need to be in the scenery or aircraft as well. An Artist, once told me, LESS is more ~ !!! sometimes you can Gawd up a painting or mural by adding too much ! Jet.
  9. Can't help but wonder, if some of the problem, is the Type of Aircraft your always flying ?? and Scenery ?? If all you want to do is Fly say the 737 or 777 Jetliners at 30,000 to 40,000 ft level, and look out the windows, that's rather redundt and boring. Maybe try flying older Propliners, like the DC-3 , DC-6 , Lockheed Constellation , maybe a Freeware Flying Boat or some sort of Sea Plane from a freeware developer or Carenado !! I took up Flying around the South Pacific to all kinds of Destinations, and with the help of Pacific Island Simulations Payware Scenery ( http://www.islandsim.com/index.html ) at an affordable price, its been more enjoyable than being at those crowded Big City Airports. Nauru Intl. : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kW93Xziz5K0 Also found a few really decent Freeware Scenery for the South Pacific too ! for FSX . I also like to make Screen Shots and Video's too. Basically, I don't like walking in the same Mud Puddle all the time, so I Puddle Hop around to different Puddles to check em' out, I guess you'd call me a Puddle Jumper ! Jetranger.
  10. The thing that worrys me is, with all these other Sim's coming into the Market place, and operating systems, that probably won't be compatible with ALL the Microsoft FSX & 2004 Aircraft and their Gizmo's that are attached to make em' work - I fear many of us Flight Simmers out here who like to Fly the older Vintage Aircraft, like the VC-10's 727 and Lockheed L-188's and Constellations and DC3's and DC6's etc. are going to lose that ability to Fly those Vintage Birds , eventually, as time goes by. NOT everybody just likes to Fly these Newer Jetliners around at 30,000ft,,with Glass Cockpits and on Auto-Pilot and call that Flight Simming. Anymore about all that's on YOU TUBE for Flight Sim Video's is the same ol' Redundt boring 737 or Airbus Jets,, you'd think there was no other Aircraft made in History ! Also, Developers like JUST FLIGHT and Captain Sim PMDG etc, but mainly Just Flight and Captain Sim,, have recently came out with the Lockheed L-1011's, several Months ago, and yet theres hardly any if any RE-Paints for them, everythings for the Newer 777's it seems. I personally can't afford to be switching platforms for Flight Simulator every few years, I've already got at least a few Grand tied up in what I've got with Hardware and products and 2 Amped up computers. I have a lot of "FREEWARE" and "PAYWARE" ( 5,000 Aircraft) , in my FSX Gold Acceleration edition, and I regret that 1 day they may not work if new operating systems come out and things get old and we have no choice but to make the switch,, and then its going to happen,,, Bye, Bye, Vintage Aircraft that all kinds of FREEWARE developers had developed in the past, people like Milton Schupe, and Eric Cantu, and Jens Kristensen, and Tom Tiedman, and many others. Lucky so far I'm somewhat computer savy so far, but I can't keep up with everything, its getting impossible to keep up with all the technogical changes and all the flight simulator changes, along with everything else in daily life,,,, One Day, my Landing Gear is gonna Fail,,, and i'll never be able to leave the Runway, I'll end up in Parked mode / Cold & Dark for life ! My Flight Simulator days / Evenings will all be over ! I feel its just around the corner too, within a few years ! Unless, ya just like to tool around in some Redundt boring 777 all the time, and never get to enjoy a Vintage older Flying Boat, or Sea Plane, or a Radial Engine propliner from the 1940's & 1950's era. I'll be keeping what I got, till its all over with, but, when it happens, it happens I Won't be upgrading to another Flight Simulator Format, just to be able to ONLY Fly a few planes with Limited Scenery , like they tried to Sell everybody with that Disasterous "FLIGHT" they came out with, which was utterly pathetic and Disgusting !! Jetranger !
  11. Well, I'll be a Monkeys Uncle !!! Sure am glad I posted about the C-90 here, the amount of Valuable Information is, well, very informative I might add ~ !!! I would of never of known any of this if I hadn't Inquired ! Well this week end I'll just have to go get rid of that Avidyne Thingy ma ~ Jobber - Du-Flunky, whatever ya call it thingy !! Jet.
  12. The other Carenado Aircraft I have installed their 172, 206's work just fine without any severe loss of performance on the FSX System. Captain Sims 707's & 727's and 737's all work flawlessly as well as Just Flights Constellation and DC6's & DC3's and Lionhearts Aircrafts !! as well as all of the Freeware Aircraft of milton Shupes with full Textures inside & out too ! But very few of the Aircraft installed in my FSX Gold Acceleration / have those 2048 X 2048 Textures. most are 1024 X 1024,,,,, or less and they display and look just fine ! I can only see using those 2048 Hi Def textures if your into looking at the Rivets and possibly better clarity and detail of the cockpit guages for extreme detail maybe . I personally, rather like to Fly and see where i'm going and see the scenery, NOT too interested in what the Rivets look like or Super Extreme detail of some cockpit guage !!! or the Extreme detail in the Cracks and wear in the Tires or whatever,,,, I guess next up in the "Future" will be Hi-Def Textures of 7048 X 7048 or some Disasterous unreal Textures, that most Flight Simmers can't use or something so we can see the extreme Textures of some Hydraulic hose or line on the aircraft or something,,, kinda think were getting a tad bit out of whack with some of this Over Extreme Detail in some of these areas that aren't really warranted really. Guess I'll have to be more careful, of what Aircraft I buy or download from now on IF they've got Extremely Ridlicious Hi Def - Textures. They probably make Painting them look neat and easier and might make selling the aircraft or paint scheme look really cool , but, not to user friendly even on a good slightly amped up System like i'm running. My system: 12 Gigs of Ram Quad Core AMD Processor 1. GB AMD Graphics Card XFX 6850 1 TB HardDrive FSX Gold / Acceleration with SP2 Track IR5 Registered version Payware Fraps Windows 7 / 64 bit Jetranger
  13. I was wondering if there was anyway to reduce the Textures of the Carenado C-90, from 2048 to 1024 ? I just purchased this C-90, think its an alright plane, but, the Textures are a tad bit much consuming on my Computer, even with a reeally decent graphics card and 12 Gigs of Ram, and a Quad Core processor. Really don't feel I should have to lower all my settings just to Fly that particular Aircraft more Fluidly,,, kinda sucks,,, very Taxing on my System, compared to other Aircraft I've got from them and other payware too. Any ideas ?? Thanks ! Jetranger.
  14. just took a full 1.5 minutes to load just the log in screen,,,
  15. The Boeing 737's 100 & 200's Vintage Jetliners ,,, Just Flights - and / or Captain Sim's ,,,, I have both of them, got JF's on Sale this last weekend during their blow out sale 2 for 1,,,, Ohh their both Decent really, neither of them are Perfect,,, 1 better than the other - Yes of course / CS,,,,!! but their both really decent Aircraft , compared to what was available back in like 1998 or 2000 years,, right ?? Remember those Ol' Aircraft from those days in our computers ??? Hard to imagine , isn't it,, from choppy square whatevers and everything plain & boring and all 1 color almost , green or blue for cockpit colors,,, YUK,,,,,, glad those days are long gone !!! Their both really nice & decent, just depends what your personally into, really,,, Flying and getting from A to B,,, or - - being an Interior Decorator ???? I'd Rank em' like this - Captain Sim's - 737-100-200 / 9.5 Stars Just Flights - 737-200's / 7.7 Stars Again, depends on what your really into with any of these Aircraft from any of these Designers ,, really into Flying or Wanting a better homes & gardens look for video purposes better to have all the bells whistles for the video effects for flying , the lesser ones even Freeware ones are Great too tho ! Sometimes I just like to Fly, tho,, and don't care what a seat looks like or interior wall, or floor or Rear panel or door,,, other times if I'm doing a detailed lengthy Video,, I'd like good quality interiors & exteriors all around, and panels & gauges & windows - just depends on the mood at the time , i'd say. But, their all really Great really in their own sort of way, compared to what once was, years ago , if ya remenber ??? Anyway, Dats , my thoughts on it, and i'm a Stickin to it !!! With that being Said,,,, How do I get the PROPS to Spin on these Suckers anyway ??? :unsure: :blink: :rolleyes: :huh: :lol:
  16. flying propliners !

  17. Great to hear on the DC-6, lookin forward to it, thats about all I have in my FSX Gold Sim are Vintage Propliners, from the Univer DC-2 to the JF DC-3 and default DC-3's to the JF Lockheed Constellations, some amped up Gumman Gooses, and freeware V-1 Vultee to CR1's Ford Tri-Motor and many other quality add on' propliners for FSX. Lst my Aircrafter utility checked it says I have 3100 Aircraft in my Sim. I currently operate with FSX Gold Acceleration, with an XFX 6850 Video Card 1 GB, with a Quadcore processor and 16 GB of Corsair RAM. Look forward to the DC-6 ! Captain I~FLY Wings. My YOU TUBE channel, mainly propliners or Vintage Jetliners. ( http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt_WaiNUlio )
  18. Naw, its a tad bit faint on the start up for smoke unfortunately, I had to add what was there, more smokies on take off, than start up,, and the original sounds were awful, so I swapped sound files with some other aircraft, and now I don't even remember what the other aircraft was, I must be getting old ,,, length of video,,, I know but YOU TUBERused to allow me only 15 minutes and now I get like an hour and a half,,, so I take advantage of the extra time if I've got enough Video to that, which isn't always the case by the time it goes into the Video Editor and gets chopped & cropped and Deleted, sometimes I'm lucky to have any video footage left by the time I take the scissors to the video,, think I'm addicted to cutting clips or something,,, :( :( :( Jetranger / propliner fanatic from KMKC
  19. Few of my "C-46A Commando" VINTAGE PROPLINER / FSX , I tweaked the Aircraft CFG File just a little. 27 minute long Video ! for more Real Information on this Vintage Propliner see the links Description below the YOU TUBE Video. and where to obtain the FREEWARE Package of this Aircraft with V/C. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zt_WaiNUlio
  20. One of my FSX War Birds the P-40X from Iris Simulations http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ftujPHd6kVo
  21. Well I Personally liked that Basler BT-67 Propliner, didn't see anything wrong with it really, Here check this Video Out I made of the Basler BT-67 for FSX on my YOU TUBE Channel here ------}
  22. I took a whole Day, one afternoon, and backed up everything on CD Disk, especially ALL my Addon Aircraft, both Payware and Freeware, along with all the effects files and gauge files and all the folders / files in FSX , just in case. I also still have my original FSX GOLD edition Disks too tho. But most about 90% of my Aircraft's CFG files are altered & tweaked. I could of put all this on another hard drive, but, what if that messes up ?? My back up Disks are stored safely in a nice container just for storing disks.Ounce of Prevention is worth a Pound of cure !
  23. Hopefully, maybe ~ after they get done with the Douglas DC-6 Propliner - they'll do some more Civilian Propliners - lets NOT forget about the poor ol' forgotton much of the time - "Martin 404" Propster too ~ !! ( JetRanger ) Remember -----}
  24. Just Flight just announced their coming out with their Boeing 737-200 jetliner - see the video here ----}
