Lucky me, I did some research on google, but did not find anything. Thank you!😃

Hello, this might be the wrong place, I know. But I can´t post at PMDG for some reason. The problem is the deactivation of the server for the PMDG OC 2. I still fly FSX and all of a sudden I am not able to install ptp files. Having different liveries for PMDG 737 is absolutley essential. PMDG made a notam in their forum about the deactivation. Okay, that's nice. Thank you for the anouncement. How can they assume, everybody is reading their forum every once in a while. The PMDG 737 for FSX is a legacy product, so why visiting their forum all the time. On the other hand, in the avsim library are so many liveries to find and as far I can see, they are almost all in a ptp file. That makes no sense for me. Am I forced to fly the PMDG only in their House colors? I can not understand why they have done this, without providing an alternative! I think there will be many many more people who are left in the lurch. What about all the files on avsim? They are useless. That's not kind and the way to go. Peter

Ok, this is an old post. I did the same with FSX-SE on a new rig on Windows 11. In Windows 10 the memory management of FSX-SE was by far better. So I blame Windows 11. I don´t know why, but I can see it clearly in VAS Monitor! Steam does not start FSX-SE in a Compability mode 8 or 7. Windows 11 Home 25H2 doesn´t even have a compability mode for Windows 10. I think they need to update Windows 11 for FSX-SE in order to run it properly. ..... I don´t see that coming.... Now you are telling me the same happens with FSX Gold. That would have been my next step (got it already on the table out of the cupboard). Did you or anybody else try the compability option too?

Hi Darran, I use AI Flight Planner https://www.fsdeveloper.com/forum/resources/ai-flight-planner.279/ I think you can use the flightplan bgl file, but you need to link the correct ai aircraft to your flightplan. For example you can find nice models and liveries here: https://fsxaibureau.com/ There is a nice manual for the AI Flight Planner, takes a little bit of time. Once you are in it, you can´t stop anymore

Hello all, Well, it seems FSX-SE doesn´t like to run like in previous times under WIN10. I built a new AMD system (not high end, but more than enough for FSX) and the problem is VAS! We all know or knew this problem. I got it under control using DX10 with SteveFixer in Windows 10. Now, in Windows 11 25H2, nogo. I have a home airport which I really know very well with all settings and weather, GSX2 with or without traffic etc. etc. Of course it was exciting using VAS Monitor, but it was controlable. The same setup in Windows 11, freshly installed, VAS is a killer. That is very disappointing. Al efforts did not succeed. Windows 11, I love it. Be careful

Hi, most important is the CPU! That´s why I have an Intel 4790k http://ark.intel.com/products/80807/Intel-Core-i7-4790K-Processor-8M-Cache-up-to-4_40-GHz

Thank you! :smile:

Hey tooting, I´m also interested! Would be nice to get a try. Thanks Peter

Hello, when the server needs maintenance, like now, is there a backup opportunity to download the guide? Thank you Peter

@Heronjr I have been testing for more then a year, maybe longer on FSX-MS Gold. Switched to DX10 etc. blabla. I can´t really say what exactly made the difference, because I changed everthing, starting with the hardware. Today my FSX run for 9 hours, flying over the Atlantik! I did everthing which was/is not allowed. Turning 100x in external, 2D, 3D cockpit, all wingviews many many times over and over. Fly-bys, 9 hours! SMOOTH! Aircraft: Qualitywings 757-200 (sry, I don´t use PMDG) Departure: Mega EDDF with probably 12-15 hot looking moving Ai around and much more on parking position. I need to adjust the schedule/speeds of those, because SuperTrafficBoard cancels many of them after 9 hours. ASN Weather with REX4 and SoftClouds (ASN on a client). The weather wasn´t really good for the trip today. Many clouds, head- and crosswind 50-100 knots. On top of all I tested the ASN settings to see what´s best. That made my sim always crash, but not today. PFE ATC (client). You can fly the NATS! ORBX FTX Global Base, Global Vector, Global openLC Europe, FS Global 2010 FTX Compatible installed and all active in the libary. TextureMaxLoad=2048 AffinityMask=7 lol GSX, AES all active. Destination: FSDT JFK Scenery V2, landed, taxi to gate with follow me smoothly. And again some nice Ai. Other add-on sceneries deactivated. FSX rules if you find the setting for your system. Ah, maybe you should not max out Autogendensity. That´s the only important one I have lowered for one step. It´s on the edge but it works. A 3.4 GHz CPU is too slow... FSX demands POWER! I love it (who needs Steam) Don´t give up.

Agree! You system is by far too weak. Get a Desktop-PC with the fastest CPU etc. You will never make it with ASN and AS A319. Never.

I use PROATC/X. I used to fly on IVAO, but since I want to fly the SID/STARS and Transitions according to my weather situation in ASN, for me it´s better to use ProATC. If you make a good flightplan, it will work and you have fun. Yesterday I had a flawless flight with the correct SID, later STAR plus Transition. So nothing to complain about. Everything went fine. It will recognize other aircrafts in any situation and you can count on instructions in these situations. If an aircraft is on final, you will be told to wait on holding point. I didn´t test flying a holding, but it does that also. We can expect more of this nice program, i think. It´s worth the money. But watch the setup, like any other fine program.

Oops, I´m sorry. Wrong picture... This one should work for most of us:

I never posted images before. Here are my settings in DX10. There are more, I do know that. It is just to give you an idea and the picture with the iFly is not for presentation how nice everthing is, but not bad. Fixer setting is now 8xCSAA. Free VAS is about 1350 MB. I need a longer flight to see how it behaves. I saw it freeing space also. On apron it was about 1450 at AS Mega EHAM.

There is a tool called VAS Monitor, latest version is 1.1. It runs on the client via fsuipc. This tool monitors VAS usage and warns if you have a problem. I tested it and it works. If you are getting warned, go down with your settings! I said it before, DX10 is recommended.
