Sudden corruption of Views in FSX
I wonder if anyone has experienced the odd problem that has appeared for me out of nowhere? Suddenly my camera views have become messed up. Cycling through A and S keys has changed sequence and perspectives completely. I have a Saitek Cessna yoke and all button assignments have been switched around. Furthermore, when I go in to settings and change them back they will not save and revert back to the wrong ones again. I am running EZDOK and have used it superbly for years. I have not touched it in anyway but I notice that things are more normal when I disable it. OK so I reinstalled and reprogrammed it but no improvement. Suddenly out of nowhere! What could have caused this and any ideas how I can resolve it? Thanks everyone for any help you can offer. JON GREEN

FSX System Reboot Problem
I wonder if I could ask the community for some help on an odd and very annoying problem which has just appeared? When I set up my flight in FSX I adjust my time to suit, but when I am setting up my aircraft at the gate FSX suddenly reloads itself and switches back to the system time on my PC. I have tried checking and unchecking the "use system time for flight time" in the general menu in FSX but it makes no difference. I did have FS Real Time installed but removed it in case of a conflict. Made no difference. Anyone else experienced this? Kind regards JON GREEN

Taxi2Gate VHHH or ImagineSim VHHH?
Taxi2Gate is far superior and I now rank them amongst the best. However I encountered a VAS issue because I was also running Fly Tampa Kai Tak and a version of Macau. Be careful of that one if your machine isn't really top end! So much detail in one small area can be a problem.

A Disaster!
Hi Jim I did visit the FSDT forum and was a little nervous of "going over old ground" but thankfully spotted an identical problem in another thread. I followed the advice but sadly without success. I was trying to save the guys some work by dealing with the same issue again! But you are right so I have opened another thread and I'm sure I will get things resolved quite quickly. Your help and and advice Jim is so much more helpful than those who join in the conversation with just the word "Exactly". My thanks once again. JON

A Disaster!
Hi Jim I followed advice given in another thread which reported exactly the same problem. Latest now is a message saying "An unknown add-on is causing Couatl Scripting Engine to restart" It tells me to look in couatl.err which I cannot open. Very tired!

A Disaster!
Can you kindly tell me where I find the dll.xml file? I looked in the app data / roaming / virtuali and cannot see it. When I find it where do I put it? I have just followed FSDT advice and reinstalled Add On Mngr and Couatl with Anti-virus disabled but still no buildings!! So frustrating but thanks for any help.

A Disaster!
Thank you Sesquashtoo and Jim for your kind help. I did delete Add On Manager and Coutl, then I downloaded again and installed. Great news is that I can now get back in to FSX but sadly the buildings at all my FSDT and FB airports have vanished. KDEN has also vanished from the list in Add On Manager! Restarting Coutl from the FSX menu didn't work. JON

A Disaster!
Just opened FSX and was invited to update my Coutl Engine and Add-On Manager for my FSDT and FB products. Did this exactly as instructed and now FSX simply will not launch. I get the opening splash screen with the FSX logo but it shuts itself down and disappears from my screen. What on earth has happened and does anyone have any ideas how I can recover this? Thank you JON GREEN

Restoring a BGL file
Thank you Jim for your kind help. I will give it a try.

Restoring a BGL file
Hello friends I have foolishly lost a bgl file from the default FSX scenery folder and I would like to get it back! Any ideas where I can get it? Is it possible to find it on one of the original discs? Thank you in advance!

737NGX and ASN turbulence effects - recommendations needed
Thank you Netshadoe for your input. I am referring to the weather settings in FSX where you can enable or disable turbulence affect on aircraft. I agree that EZDOK reacts to and does not create turbulence but you can adjust the severity of the affect and this was where I wanted opinions. If you run FSX, EZDOK and ASN together, any tips on achieving best realism?

737NGX and ASN turbulence effects - recommendations needed
So Gents may I ask for your opinions on obtaining best turbulence effects? I use ASN and wonder if I should switch off the turbulence in FSX and simply adjust ASN to my preference. Or should I leave FSX enabled? In addition I also run EZDOC for flightdeck camera views and ground/air turbulence shake. What should I do with all three and how do they interact? Thank you!

Unable to open cargo doors
Yes I am experiencing the same problem. I thought it would be cured by the new service packs but sadly not. I have rebuilt my saved panels but still have the problem. Whilst on the subject of PMDG quirks, I have searched high and low for a solution to the "racing clock" problem in the FMC of the 737NGX. It only occurs in certain parts of the world. I found a couple of threads but they did not seem to offer me an answer. Was there ever a final answer and solution to this problem? Kyle may I ask you if you are aware of a solution? Thank you kindly in advance.

South African Airways 777-300Er Repaint
I agree. Great to see South Africa in the forum! I travel there frequently on business and can confirm it is a superb country...with people to match. Sitting in the Waterfront at Cape Town, sipping a cold beer and listening to an African choir. Magical.

Bergen X
But if you look at the comparison video does it not show far more texture detail in C9?

Bergen X
Wow! Thanks Tim. Looks like Cloud 9 wins every time!

Bergen X
I see that Aerosoft have published their rendition of Bergen in Norway. I already own the Cloud 9 (FSDT) version and I am interested to know if this new version is worth moving over to? Any comparisons been made by anyone? JON GREEN

INVALID FORCAST UPLINK
Had the same problem with the descent forecast link. Go back into ASN and reload your FSX flightplan. Now try again in the FMC. For me it solved the issue. JON GREEN

Default buildings show up trough custom mwcr scenery
Just downloaded your fix but all sorts of strange things happened! I lost all the other Cayman airports, the default building is still there and refreshing my Flightsim Commander database meant constant crashes. JON GREEN

Default buildings show up trough custom mwcr scenery
Yes I have the same problem. A shame because your work is excellent and I thank you so much for sharing it. I am sure there is a simple answer and I look forward to seeing what it is. Best wishes JON GREEN

Does ORBX not care?
I had a recent problem but it was resolved very efficiently indeed. There was a slight initial delay but that may have been because I forgot the rules and did not quote my Order Number in my message. Just ensure you have done that so that they can see you are a legitimate customer / genuine complainant. I have no doubt they will help you as soon as they can. Cheers

Kai Tak Flightplans
Hello Mike Me again! I have faithfully downloaded and installed the Navigraph file and very oddly all works for VHHX in the 737 but not the 777. Any ideas?
-
FMC vs VHHX
I have a similar problem. Downloaded the installer, followed all instructions (including pasting into the correct navdata file) and now the 737 works perfectly but sadly not the 777. Odd that one works but the other.

Autopilot Disconnect Alert won't shut off
Mike Great news! I deleted my existing saved panel and rebuilt it from the default engines-on status. No progress. Did exactly the same again. No progress. Did it a third time and "hey presto ", the problem has been cured! May I thank you once again Mike for your kind willingness to help and your admirable perseverance in helping someone else in such a kind way. There is currently much comment in these forums about contributor's behaviour but I offer you up as a great example of what these forums should be about. Kindest wishes
