  1. Yes, I am having CTD's with the Hjet and FSRealistic. I am still experimenting and expect that the two softwares are not compatible/stable together. Charles.
  2. My MSFS 2020 installation went missing today, just empty folder? I am fearing a virus but see that other peoples installations are going missing too. Charles.
  3. There is a freeware replay solution from Salty Simulations available right now, it's still in development and is a little unpolished. I you want a free solution until the official replay application comes along, you might want to leek here. https://fselite.net/news/salty-simulations-announces-saltyreplay-for-microsoft-flight-simulator/ Charles
  4. BIGT65, Use MSFS Addons Linker, it's fantastic for managing your community folder. Place your Addons anywhere on your PC and create symbolic links to the addons from the Community folder. Just enable the Addons that you are going to use for your flight and easily disable everything else in a click. This really speeds up the loading of Flight Simulator. BRGDS.

  5. If not already mentioned, a decent glider with realistic thermals tied to the correct cumulus cloud above the glider, ridge and wave lift so we can soar the Alps, Rockies, Aboyne etc. Charles.
  6. Here you go! These XP plugins will not cost you a penny. You can tweak the clouds/colour with this nice plugin 3jclouds2 http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/35574-3jclouds2-pimp-your-default-clouds/ There is also a plugin called Ventura Sky2 http://venturasky.com/ You will need Fly With LUA, just drop these small scripts into your Fly With LUA scripts folder. I like my XP11 clouds now, I am a pilot and sometimes the clouds look very real especially with the micro puffs within cloud layers! Chas.
  7. Hello Steve, I am using these drivers with FSX and a GTX 680, only one monitor. I have had no problems with them, they appear stable. They do not offer any thing extra for FSX, over all of the other sequential driver releases that I have installed for the GTX 680. You might like to try Display Driver Uninstaller for Nvidia cards available from Guru3D.com I have no issues using this utility, use at your own risk. Most of us select a fresh custom install from the driver options on the Nvidia driver installer package. http://www.guru3d.com/files_details/display_driver_uninstaller_download.html Might help if you had some corrupt files left over from another previous driver install, perhaps! Charles.
  8. Amer, When you start FSX note down the airline names of the duplicate objects. Start WOAI in expert mode and remove those individual airlines which are causing the problems. I sometimes start again by removing all models, don't forget you can select multiple packages to install at once, I usually do around 25-30 airlines at a time. When you are using the installer, if you are using Windows 7, you may have to run the installer in compatibility mode, (Win XP) and run as an administrator. My installer gives errors during a multi package install unless I do this . Charles.
  9. Hi Chris, Yes, I have Steve's DX10 fixer and also recommend Add-on Converter X if using DX10. There is a handy utility called AlphaSearcher2. If you experience stutters in FSX it may be caused by missing alpha channels in some textures. This handy utility searches them out and corrects the problem. You can just choose to search without making any changes. It's 100 percent safe. I run it from time to time after installing World Of AI aircraft and airport sceneries. It should be available form the AVSIM library. World Of AI aircraft appear to have some of the alpha channels missing which may result in stutters. Charles. I found this neat utility and posted a link on the forum here, the posting has been largely missed by everyone because of it's benign title. http://forum.avsim.net/topic/442080-jet-boost/#entry2988351 I was searching for an alternative to Ken Slaters Alacrity PC, and consider this to be a safe and worthwhile alternative. It is actually a good piece of software!
  10. Hello Vortex 681 Initially I had a frame rate hit and lost about 6 FPS with high settings within FSX. I dropped down from setting 3 to setting 1 and everything was running smooth. I now have increased the density of lights and lowered my scenery complexity and can now fly from Stansted to Heathrow without problems. Approaching Heathrow, ( UK2000) I drop to around 20FPS. UK2000 EGLL is a complex scenery, I am using the latest version. I realize this scenery will run on any system and it is very customizable and Chris Bell is a very nice helpful guy. I would not hesitate to buy this, Vortex681. Why not try the free demo of Berlin which is available on the Aerosoft web site. FREE DEMO>>>>>>>>>>> http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/79065-night-environment-berlin-demo-free-released/ I love the way the road lights extend to the horizon and gently fade away, it's so realistic. I am using DX10 mode and having fun playing with the bloom effects through the DX10 Scenery Fixer and seeing the effect on my new night scenery. This is a very customizable product and has caused me to stay up to 1am in the morning flying in a darkened room! :lol: I have noticed that in DX10 on my system, when on the ground, the orange lights go behind the clouds it's like they go to the background. This is no deal breaker and there is no guarantee for perfection while using DX10. I am sure there is a way of fixing this if you want to be pedantic. Has anyone tried the Netherlands NE with Netherlands free photo scenery from NL2004? I think the combo may look awesome! PDXFlyers comparison pictures look much the same, how strange and I don't see orange lights? I have a significant change in my scenery for the better. I have decided to try the free Berlin demo, downloading now................... Charles.
  11. Please, Vancouver and British Columbia? This looks so real, it's by far the best night lighting available, period! I noticed that the lights can be left on during daytime as they are not visible. The lights can be turned off within flight simulator without interrupting your flight. I was going to buy another product just for night lighting in the UK, this has saved me some quite a bit of money! I highly recommend this product and it's priced just right. Charles.
