I'm using an X52. I have already tried resetting the controls to default but it made no difference. I also change joystick and it also made no difference so I'm stumped!!

Evening all.

Just having a a problem with the Elevator Trim Wheel. It is constantly rotating, adding positive pitch. I've tried various things to stop it but to no avail.

I have been reassigning key commands to my joystick so may have cocked it up somewhere.

Anyone got any ideas??

Thx

Hi all.

Its time to upgrade some of my pc components. I've decided on the new i5 Haswell 4670k and an Asus Z87 Plus mobo. What I can't decide on is memory. I was thinking 8gb and keeping the price under £100. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance.

Thanks everyone for your help.

I've seem to have sorted. Audiohavoc thats exactly what I did.

Thx

Hi all

I've just started having an unusual problem with the sound during a flight. Whenever the ATC chatters, either to me or other planes the engine noise in my plane reduces. Then after about 44-60 seconds after the atc has stopped talking the sound returns to its previous level?

I've tried playing with the various volume levels but they don't seem to stop it so I'm now at a lose. Any ideas?

Merry Christmas (nearly).

As in the title, I would like to have a go and fly a 737.

But due to my pc not being the most up to date and the extra load the PMDG 737 would probably inflict, I was wondering what other good 737 simulations are available?

Thanks in advance.

Oops. I didn't realise there was one until about 10 mins ago. So many sub-forums. Thanks.

Hello all.

As in the title, just wondering what the pro's and con's are? Peoples opinion, experiences etc?

Thanks

Hi

As in the title, just wondering if there is an alternative to the bright yellow triangles when using the progressive taxi, that isn't so intrusive?

Thanks in advance :smile:

Greetings.

I'm really just after a bit of advice for what part of my pc I should upgrade. I know this has been asked many, many, many times before but, I have been out of the upgrade 'loop' for a while and there are so many knowledgeable people on here I thought what better place to ask? As you can see from the 'My PC' on the left, its not the most powerful rig but I thought I would treat it (and myself) to an upgrade for xmas.

The only stipulation is the budget of around £100. CPU and mobo will be upgraded sometime in the new year.

Thanks in advance and Merry Christmas and Happy New Year To All

Do you think deleting the Scenery.cfg and let it rebuild might help?

Hi all.

As in the tittle the screen shot shows what has happened to my Scenery Library.

I was installing some Misty Moorings scenery and then for some reason all the tittles disappeared! Everything is still insatalled but I just can't tell where it all is without clicking on it, which is getting a bit of a pain. The only way I can seem to return the names is to uninstall and then re-install. Any ideas please?

I was adding some areas within the Scenery Library and somehow I have removed all of the titles from the Scenery area section.

All of the sceneries are still installed but, the only way to tell what is installed and at what priority is to either, double click it or click it and then 'edit area'.

Any ideas how to get the titles back please?

I'm finding this topic very interesting as I'm having this exact same problem as the OP:

http://forum.avsim.net/topic/387887-ground-textures-changing/

I have tried all the suggestions in this topic so far but with only limited success.

And like the OP, I to used both Bojote's tool and Word Not Allowed's guide not realising there was incompatibilities.

Now to try Word Not Allowed's suggestion and let fsx rebuild the fsx.cfg

I don't mean to hijack, but just to let the OP others are having the same problem.

It looks like resource starvation to me. Your computer is dumping the higher-level mips of the terrain images because it can't keep up with the updates. In other words, something is overloading the system.

Thats what I thought it might be but I've knocked down the settings quite a bit and its still doing the same.

Its the 'blurries'

 

You are pushing the settings to hard for your PC.

 

You are from Stafford? That's my home town! Lived there until 13 years ago.

 

If you are 37 you probably know the old Colosseum and Reynolds Bar pretty well!

Have lived in Stafford for about 18 years now. Reynolds Bar long gone and the Colosseum has been re-named Black and White.

The town still floods when it rains though :lol: :lol:

That could be the cause as I'm flying in ORBX PNW with a few airports. But I don't really want to uninstall the airports .

I will have to fly somewhere else with no add on airports to see if that makes a difference.

Thanks for the info.

Plans changed so I've have a go tonight.

When I alt/tab back to the desk top and then return to FSX they do reload, but, after I cycle through a few views the same thing happens again :mad:

Ok I'll give that a try.

Won't be able to try it until next week, but I'll report back.

Thanks

Hi all.

I'm having a problem with the ground textures. When I first start my flight they are all lovely and nice. Once I take off and maybe change to an external view to admire the scenery the ground textures go all 'washed out'.

I can get them back by going into the menu and changing either Mesh or Texture res, but then the same thing happens again almost straight away.

The pictures probably explain it better.

Freshly load flight:

And then a few seconds later:

Any ideas???

Cool!!

This is goning to be my first d/l repaint for my Lagacy

Sorted. DX10 off = plane works :drinks:

Cool thanks for the tip.

I'll give it a try later

Thanks for all the info guys, there is certainly plenty to go on.

Glad I could help Rob

I was recommended Milton Shupe's wonderful D18 but I'm having a problem with the vc the screen below shows:

I d/l it from a different source but the result was the same.

I thought maybe if I got a different version of the D18 it might fix it. So I d/l the Rusty Myers float plane and that was worse!!

Can someone please help me as I really would like to fly these great planes.

Wow! Great skills and great scenery
