  1. Great news, to be honest i starting to think having official support forms for any developer that is well established put's AVSIM in a position where its hard to be neutral when somebody may have something negative to say about ANY product or developer, i would like to see AVSIM open official support forms for smaller but serious developers so they can get established in the community. All said i think it a great move by PMDG
  2. Just out of curiosity i checked my flight sim purchases for the last 400 days on PayPal I have other purchases from orbx on my cc but i'm not including them in this quick experiment. I've bought €1500/$1800 worth of addons I know everyone's situation is different but whats the general consensus, I Probably get to spend 10hrs a week in the sim it roughly equates to $4.50 a day and i know there are far more expensive habits. Am I roughly inline with the rest of the community? Or have i a "new release" addiction So Is this a typical or excessive amount?
  3. Slight side step from the topic but i really want to suggest that if anyone even if they only have xp11 on there system but rarely use it, please buy this to encourage more developers and orbx to continue to produce products for this platform
  4. No harm to do a RAM check, just run mdsched.exe in windows. To be honest i have yet to see any RAM issue being caused by a corrupt RAM stick, but run the test just to rule it out
  5. Best to raise the subject at the fslabs forum itself.
  6. To be honest If it becomes available in stores here in Ireland I will definitely have a good luck at the odyssey but until then I prefer to keep hardware upgrades off the credit card statement 😉 The vive is the only premium level vr headset that I can buy relatively easy in a local store
  7. Going to hop on the HTC vive pro when it's released I'm sure a couple of months later there will be a new rift but not waiting any longer.
  8. I definitely would not build in the first quarter of this year anyway there is already rumours the 2080 with either Volta or ampere arcitecture could be out as soon as April and we might know more about cannon lake, we're still not sure a z370 board will have the correct socket. Funny we have the exact same rig apart from GPU so I'm also following the hardware news for upgrade advice but at the moment apart from the ssds (3.5 TB ) corsair RAM and PSU it's looking like complete rebuild more then a slight upgrade
  9. The 777 looked like it was going to have the same problem hung for a while longer on black screen after loading, but then loaded fine.
  10. Same issue here, black screen then straight to desktop,
  11. Fantastic achievement. I really hope it reignites humankind ambitions to look boldly into the future and we stop believing that all of our greatest achievements in space were nearly 50 years ago. Bring on the SpaceX BFR
  12. This is such a relief i was going to buy a vive over the holidays as an impulse purchase and a little voice in my head said wait till CES is over they might release a new version, Came home went online to do some research and seen a few websites mention HTC "Project Oasis", so glad i waited still might hold back until first reviews come online but i think i've staved away from VR for too long now.
  13. Kl0935 is a 737 from EHAM to EIDW that will cut out some legs for you
  14. Happy Christmas to you Tony and to all of Avsim. Couldn't agree with you more, I'm spending my first Christmas with my (first born)5 week old son and that beats any addon under the tree
  15. Guess that's the great thing about hardware always moving forward at a brisk pace,Im guessing by late Q2/Q3 of next year we will have a 1180ti.....and probably a Titan VX or Titan VBlack shortly afterwards 😉
  16. Not sure if it's been covered but just got an email from nvidia the Titan Volta has been released. Learned my lesson after buying the first pascal Titan so holding off on this https://www.nvidia.co.uk/titan/titan-v/?ncid=em-ded-mh-29199&deliveryName=DM7834#cid=NA
  17. Thanks for the advice, I'll leave it alone for now, just don't like a desktop cluttered with icons.
  18. Anyone else have a settings.json file on the desktop now? i know its related to the FTX central update but is it safe to delete it?
  19. Nice to see the Iceland demo area is back also.
  20. Just finished up my Sunday evening flight in the FSLabs A320 and due to time constraints i only had time for a 1hr flight between EGBB and EIDW and i have to be honest i had the same satisfaction i would have with the Aerosoft version, This was only my second flight in the FSLabs since i flew the tutorial so i really haven't dug deep into the systems, its a fantasic aircraft and one ill keep going back to, But to be honest ill buy aerosofts version as well because my sim time is getting extreamly limited and i also " appreciate the (lite) crew simulation" as Alan stated above, which is great when you haven't time to learn study level aircraft.
  21. I think there is a lot of negative comments about the OP original post. Let's just be honest and admit while it is a simple process to go through if you follow the instructions, It's not like 90% off the addons that we install on a weekly/monthly basis.
  22. Nothing major so i wouldn't rush i bet you have your hands full as it is. It is a quick update as Mark just mentioned but time is precious. Congratulations on your boy BTW best of luck and health to him
  23. Is there a new "virtual reality" section in the tool bar? this is also an indication that its v4.1. Did you uninstall the P3d Client before installing? Or was it a full fresh install of 4.1?
  24. On The download section of LM you need to download cont1.cab and cont2.cab download them to same location you downloaded Install_content.msi and it will locate the files and continue with the install
  25. If I remember correctly Mega Airport Dublin was released for FSX and P3D and within a month a port over was available for X-plane 10...fast forward a couple of years and just recently Dublin V2 has been released for x-plane 11 and still no word for P3D v4. I assumed (wrongly) it would have been released within a week or two of the Xp release.... it's a big sim world but you really miss your home base when it's not available
