Can't Install The DX10 Fix... Help!
Engineroom the file Kabronicus is showing is zipped, yours is unzipped. Maybe you do have the unblock option on your zipped version.

AOTD for 8/30 Wheeler Waterway
Really weird, they were down for me earlier and I decided to check the marketplace one last time and it was up. I had credit so I got the 46 and I logged into the game and nailed the aerocache .

Comparing the night sky in X-Plane 10!
Do you notice the obvious difference comparing the 2 xplanex screens? I wonder why that happens. Also, I can overlook the time flaws but that dash just gets my fashions senses tingling. ;)

Current best video cards for FSX on a budget?
I might add that refurbished is a lot different than used. Refurbished i would buy, I would not buy used electronics. Well, maybe if the used price was 10cents on the dollar :)

Just tried the x-plane 10 demo
This is my opinion only, others may see this differently. If you fly the big stuff between Aerosoft's custom airports and 3rd party add-ons with a higher end rig you'll probably love it. If you want to fly GA with the default scenery you may be disappointed. I see a lot of potential for my type of enjoyment with this product but the effort and research I have to invest to get there is not what I expected and I thought I had read it all. I didn't, if I had I would have waited. I won't say don't get it. My recommendation is to read and find the stuff that is not said or has been glossed over in the reviews and fan sites. Right now Xp10 is in beta and it will be a while for the new aircraft and scenery to reach maturity. I have a list of negatives and frustrations as long as my arm as to why i should wipe this thing from my drive. Yet, after all that I'm installing the latest beta on a nice clean pc as I write this. Edit: Just installed with the latest beta and installed the new default opening sequence, quite an improvement. My list has shortened.

Is there any way to eliminate the transmission towers and lines ?
They still look odd to me and I would rather not see them than have to see them placed the way they are now. Following the river out of LOWI would be a 100 times better for me if they were not there, Thanks,Rob

Who will be making addons for XP-10?
The following post was made July 30th 2011 We have not seen any conversion that looks any good. So while it might be the same raw material it will be pure X-plane 10. And in the end I think we'll come to one single price for a scenery no matter what the platform, just as we now have for FS2004/Fsx On behalf of Aerosoft and with kind regards, Mathijs Kok

What are we gaining by moving from Flight to FSX?
I have to agree with HIFlyer, I have the same observations from using Xplane. And as far as smoothness with FSX I have an overclocked i7 920 3.2 paired with a 560 and 6 gig of ram. a couple of tweaks and select add ons for GA and I fly at 25fps but its smooth. So Flight for what it is and FSX for much better variety. Getting ready to build a new i7 but so far If i stray from the Flight+ FSX combo it will be to Prepar3d and not Xplane. FSX is just closer to the whole package at this point and that's what I'm gaining.

What did i expect from Flight and what do i expect from a sim

Best GA Single or Twin for XPlane10...
The Seneca not fully xplane 10 compatible yet. Or did the patch come out? jcomm, I want one good aircraft too but at this point I feel the release candidate is fairly close and the developers will have the aircraft I really want with full compatability. Meanwhile, the baron in xplane and my Flight and FSX addons will keep my patience in check. This is getting crazy now I'm looking at Prepar3d. The Stones were right. I can't get no....Satisfaction

X-plane 10.10 B6 Released!
What i don't understand: this is x-plane ver 10 and after all this time the only way I can find 10.05r Plausible is to imagine Godzilla just came through the area with the Cylons in hot pursuit. There are aspects of x-plane i like a lot and the new beta is much improved but the joy of flying low and slow is just not happening. You have to fly other programs just to enjoy all aspects of the Genre.

Looking for add-on advice
Ideal Flight on the front page of AVSIM should peak your interest

I just have to wonder...
Flight's main fault was not keeping that high enthusiasm fueled with the proper content for their core supporters. When they finally realized and started to add content it was too late. Proper communication was also blocked early on because:. They were condemned in the court of public opinion and were given no support from those who suckled from the FSX cow. Flight is a Bull roaming in it's own pasture.

Great News! The best are getting better :-)
develops a ga twin=sister company and a single = buys a plane

Interested in X-Plane
Knowing what I know now I would download the demo and patch latest beta release or wait til the latest Demo release candidate is out. This latest beta patch has improved xplane 10 remarkably. The UI is more intuitive and as others have shown the graphics will surprise you. The default baron has been tweaked and 3rd party add-ons are added daily.

The problem with non-FLIGHT, non-ELITE simulators...
https://dl.dropbox.com/u/95214671/2012-7-31_9-59-12-449.BMP I just applied a fix to the sounds file and that spray looks a lot better. Oh I also have the accufeel add-on and I run full screen. I'll start cranking that a little at a time

The problem with non-FLIGHT, non-ELITE simulators...
on the scenery tab all sliders to right except mesh 5 m autogen is normal land detail textures checked no shadows. Traffic is 16% 16% airport veh low road veh 16% ships /ferries 40%. Aircraft, no shadows in or on aircraft. 3d virt cocpit hirez checked landing lights illum ground. Graphics target frames 40 1920x1081x32, Anisotropic anti-aliasing global textures very high, adv animations text continuous. Weather right now is all to the left w/ detailed clouds and real time updates. global settings there say med-low. The area I fly is limited to orbx pnj , also flying NV and AZ CA with Bluesky . I fly Realair's Lanc,the KCFS seabee and Virtavia's c-17 and caribou, Alabeo's c188b and Just Flight's DC-3. My next purchase is either REX or Aerosoft's Bronco. I have not been to aerosoft manhatten yet but i have a feeling that will halve my fps.

The problem with non-FLIGHT, non-ELITE simulators...
FScamp, I wish I could say the same. I ran that tool and not only did it look worse in fsx it still ran like crap. I still have the generated cfg file so i'll go back and see what's wrong- maybe. It's times like that I just reboot and fire up Flight. Interestingly enough I just got a multimedia rig for my home network and it's an [ i7 3770 3.4 nvidia 640], so I thought what the heck and I installed fsx and it runs great. No tweaks, no mods just some good quality aircraft and ORBX with UTX,Bluesky and FSGenesis. I'm debating REXe performance wise. I average 40fps minimum no problem and no crashes. I do fly GA so I'm trying to keep it simple. Lancair legacy is the most in-depth add-on I have, and I'm going to keep it that way. I run gmap on my samsung 10.1

And now what?
I think more positive thinking in what we have in Flight instead of lamenting on the what we don't or will not have should be a morning mantra for some of us. Repeat after me: Get the cache Get the cache. Good, relax, inhale and concentrate, "so much more left to see and do", exhale :lol: C'mon Miss Flight when it's gone and you can't log in. Not a second sooner than that.
- Buy it and they will come!

How good is Virtavia? and their aircrafts?
I bought mine on sale so the price was closer to the quality I expected. I didn't notice a hole in the cockpit. I think i'll go check it out. Edit: Didn't find a hole but i found two viewports down low. Sorry sun was going down at area 51 so this is a little dark https://dl.dropbox.com/u/95214671/2012-8-2_20-5-44-679.BMP

X Plane 10 North America - Scenery Not Displaying Correctly
I read all that and that was one of the reasons I decided to try x-plane. So far what I've read is nothing like what I see. Here's what the scenery looks like in my 10.5 beta version https://photos-6.dro...e=1280x960,32bf https://photos-1.dro...e=1280x960,32bf ooops, tiny pictures I use the Southern tip of new jersey for reference because I know that area like the back of my hand. X-plane just doesn't cut it. Now, all the goodies that I saw in the demo are missing. I have to find out why. I like to fly GA and I enjoy knowing where I am by just looking for landmarks. I can't do that in x-plane so I just keep reading and reading and.. Let's just say right now I get more enjoyment out of fsx visually and more satisfaction out of the aircraft in x-plane. YEP a very big part as far as I'm concerned.

10.10 B5 released
My frames went from limping to olympic runner-up but I lost all that custom scenery around ksea and I get micro stutters that I didn't have before. Before 20-25 fps and smooth now 60-80 fps and stutters. I have to read more about this scenery too. All the roller coaster roads are gone but so are the features that lured me into this world. No train yards no cool green highway signs. My love/hate relationship with x-plane grows more perplexing by the hour.
