Setting up GTX970 in Asus Z97 Motherboard
wlix261 replied to WR269's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcI just have gone through installing the same. I had to delete the display driver in windows, leaving the system without one per se, then restart to let windows pick up the driver for the new hardware it finds. Then update to the latest version NVidia. Regards Alvaro Escorcia

SIDs and STARs - Annoying Last Minute Changes
Hello, Nothing like taking time preparing well for an IFR flight; especially a flight with live ATC service. Using weather forecast should help narrowing down the RWYs one would most likely be asked to depart / land. And from there, carefully examining the SIDs and STARs / IFR Approach procedures more likely to be used, and have those ready on-hand. Incidentally, that is why the Flight Plane one files must not include SID, STAR neither Approach. Regards

Assigning FSX controls through FSUIPC without starting from zero
Hello. This has probably already been answered. But In any case I would appreciate guidance with this: I use Saitek pro yoke + engine control (throttle, propeller pitch, and mixture) plus Saitek pedals, and I have all the controls running through the standard FSX controls. I want to start migrating my FSX planes one at a time from standard FSX controls to FSUIPC controls that can be specific to each plane model. My problem is that when I use the FSUIPC screens to set the FSUIPC controls, (after I disable all of the FSX controls), I don't know how many and what controls do I need to assign. There seem to be so many and I don't know how to ensure I don't leave something behind. Is it possible to print the current settings I have in FSX (some kind of config file) showing me to what value/mode I have setup each and every control? Also for FSUIPC ... that way I think I can map things in paper and then manage the new setup process. P.D. My main interest are A2A C172,PA28,C182 as well as Carenado's B58. As second priority I have several other planes. Thanks in advance... Alvaro Escorcia

"Microsoft Sells License to FS Franchise" Part 2
Maybe this is not happening and is just a dream. P3D and XPlane moving on their divergent paths, FSX still being used by most and still a lot of simmers using FS9. Developers building for FSX and P3D and also for Xplane.

Terrain Mesh?
I use FSGenesis, They have various "products" at different resolution for some areas. One could have higher resolution for the same area depending on what specific FSGenesis "product" one has.

A Plan G type program
I understand the point but I disagree because Plan-G is not on the ropes. Goole maps was just a tiny piece of functionality of the previous version; at least for what one uses plan G for : VFR planning and following-up on flight. But don't get me wrong, I see what you mean but we all have to understand that big google does what they want because we use them too much !. I use 2 PC's on the home network to fly n FSX. On the 2nd screen of the primary (FSX) PC I run FSCommander (great!) and on the laptop I run Plan-G. So... I get best of both. In any case, Plan G is my VFR tool whilst FSCommander my IFR tool. yet I use them always together...

A Plan G type program
I use plan G for all my VFR flights and I see the map all the time. I can turn on or off, or move away the window of the Flight Plan and that leaves the screen only with the map and the moving plane.Also one can run Plan G on a second PC on the home network and it works quite well. I am not sure if that is what you are looking for....

best flight planning software?
For VFR the best I have found is PlanG (free). Has great user interface and practical functionality, especially for VFR.

best way to choose a STAR
I first look at the weather conditions (wind speed and direction) at the METAR at airport and that hints to appropriate RWY to land. Then I chose the type approach I want from those available (say ILS) and look at the3 chart. Then I look for the bast STAR that gets me to the beginning of the ILS approach from where I come from (in this case the south).
