Many thanks Jim, I found that too but I should've said I'm trying to connect it to my iPad and haven't managed yet.

Hello I own Skydemon and would like to connect it to FSX. I feel sure I did it years ago but I can't remember how. I bought FSUIPC hoping that would help but no joy. Clearly I need help. I'm considering OPUS software but I just want to be certain it's going to work before throwing more money away. I just need it for Skydemon not everything else it comes with. Many thanks!

Hi, I'm enjoying this aircraft but there's a few things I'd change if I could: I'd like the landing lights to be a lot brighter and I'd love a custom paint job with reg to boot. Can anyone point me in the right direction for these things please?

Tried image shack, apparently I do not have permission to use it here. Moved on now though thanks

Hi, yes the Aerosoft new release. I would post a picture up here of half of the cockpit being missing at FL33 - good view, but it's a bit chilly! However, it might be quicker and easier to do a degree in astrophysics than it is to put an image up on this forum.

I'm finding the a318 too much for my computer, i.e; it hangs, large patches of scenery still not loaded, then it finally closes. I don't have any problems with the 777/737 a320 with fs2crew, GSX, vfr scenery or night with extreme airports. - I thought I'd overcome OOM's I only have the scenery in use checked, which is usually fine. I've used bejotes cfg. editor. On a more positive note... it's a lovely aircraft! Love the exterior lighting, good work.

tried again today, EGLL to KJFK at sunset. Requested pause at TOD so I could restart. After restart, it had lost the IRS. - Gutted! I should try with the NGX and report.

Everything else fine, plan remains in CDU etc. all except IRS needs realigning. Even both LNAV & VNAV buttons light up. But it doesn't remain on track.

I'm flying EGLL to LGIR today, and had read a good idea to avoid OOM. By saving my flight after TOD and restarting FSX; thus resetting VAS. The problem is I lost my IRS so now I can't even leave the cockpit for a pee! The only add on in scenery checked is EGLL. my MBP & PC both suffer with long hauls. Any suggestions how to save the IRS aswell?

anybody?

oh, not solved. seems this is an intermittent issue.

seem to have worked it out by setting the priority to real time

I installed the 777 this morning onto my MacBook retina, ran fine for a few hours. came back to it this afternoon and now FSX keeps crashing/ sometimes the game will load but the aircraft has no landing gear - will fly but has no display in the cockpit. Try to change aircraft and FSX crashes.

hi, thanks for your replies. I've managed to talk the missus into installing win 7 64 bit onto her MacBook pro with retina. I will give that a go. Re upgrades in the future, I thought the GPU's are not as important as the CPU specs for FSX. The CPU specs are what's concerning me with macs. am I wrong in thinking that? meanwhile I have got my rig going again. turned out I had air bubbles around the water pump, I had to remove it shake the whole system, then replace the radiator the correct way up!! My rig is running a [email protected] and a GTX260. how will an i7 imac compare do you all think?

uninstall PMDG?
