I got it James. Basically, the site only shows Enter a local password Confirm your local password until you create your own custom password, and you do that by entering it into those two fields. Because I had never done that and was only using the "I forgot my password" option, the option to enter my current one didn't exist. Once I created one, it now shows CURRENT password NEW password Confirm NEW password It was kind of confusing on the site because until you create a custom password, it says, "You can set a local password here. This will allow you to log in directly to the forums and browse the site from your mobile device. This is optional and will not change how you currently log in." I had no idea what a local password was, and I didn't plan to access anything via mobile, plus because it said it was optional, I never put anything in there, but that's actually where you enter your custom password. Once I entered my custom password in there and waited for the 15 minute lock to go away, I was able to log into the site w/out any problems, and I can change my password now if needed.

Thanks for the reply, Jim, but as noted in the original post up above, there is no option to enter a new password. Our options are: New email address Confirm email address Current password Then below is and option for setting a local password for logging in from a mobile phone, but the description says it's optional and won't change how we currently log in. Enter a local password Confirm your local password Please advise where I would enter a new password that will change how I currently log in to the desktop site. I tried using the set local password option, but the site did not recognize it and locked me out for 15 minutes. This happens for several of us, and the only way we can log in is to have the site generate a new password everytime using the "I forgot my password" option. Thanks.

So yeah, looks like we don't have an option to change our password, so every time I got to log in, I'm going to have to reset my password. That seems like it will add a lot of unnecessary load to the site.

Thank you, Paul, Steve and everyone else who contributed to making DirectX 10 work in FSX. I installed the fixes today along with Addon Converter X, and it works awesome! Everything went smoothly. Thank you. I'm not sure what AffinityMask=xx does, but it wasn't in my original CFG file or in there after installing the fixes, and my frame rates are pretty good. If anything, they're higher after installing than before the patch...if that's possible. If AffinityMask=xx increases frame rates, I will definitely give it a try.

Thank you, Paul for the quick reply and for all the work you and Steve have been doing to get all of us all flying with the additional features that DX10 offers. When I tried out DX10 and noticed a HUGE increase in FPS (10+ at busy airports and even higher in less dense areas) I didn't want to go back to DX9.

I'm thinking of getting Addon Converter X and wondered if the pre-processing feature keeps the textures converted "forever" on the planes that are installed or if it needs to be periodically re-run, even if no new airplanes have been installed. Thanks! I was going to download the demo, but since it's only 10 minutes and may not work as well as the full version, I don't know if it'll really show me all the program can do.
