  1. LOL same! We could just make it rain... but where would the fun be in that?
  2. I use world of ai set to 100% GA and airline and cull it back to 50 with the ai traffic manager linked in this forum on page 2. This ensures plenty of ai at most airports and doesn't kill frame rates.
  3. +1 It's well worth revising your vector mathematics when getting serious about aviation physics. Bear in mind as well that the handling characteristics of every aircraft are different. Vagaries such as centre of gravity, centres of aerodynamic pressure/moments and turbulent flow are all fascinating differences between airframes.
  4. Yes it was, AVSIM is infested with self righteous arse holes posting keyboard warrior responses such as the one above and I for one am sick of it. Suggesting a newbie search the forums is one thing, being a dick about it is quite another.
  5. That was uncalled for hot shot.
  6. That's actually quite a nice idea, never considered using the save feature like that. Normally it's just for covering for fsx crashes.
  7. A centilitre is metric friend. Not SI though. For that you'd need a 0.75x10^-3 m^3 bottle
  8. Bugger. Guess what I have installing on the other computer as I type this (hint: it's not version 2.5).
  9. Couldn't agree more. Synth voices aren't great, but I'll take that over "ransom note" waves spliced together. Radar contact is even worse for that.
  10. It's an orbx EU and dx10 issue. I have exactly the same on my sim. It would seem the dev team for ftx England either didn't test dx10 in any depth or couldn't find a solution because it affects Scotland and Wales also.
  11. Alternatively you can sign into the navigraph charts cloud in which case you don't download anything. It has a mobile/tablet friendly interface and instant links to every chart in the database. No need to faff about downloading!
  12. Ah ok that's fine. Although I should clarify I was curious if it's possible to occupy the right seat as PF. I guess then the suggestion for future projects might be to allow switching preference, although I concede it's not really all that important lol.
  13. Hi, I'm curious, is there a way of preventing the fs2crew first officer from adjusting the right hand displays? Indeed, is it possible to make these scripts execute for the left hand side instead? Furthermore, when the first officer is PF, do the flows continue to be PF/PM based or are the flows altered to reflect the practicalities of the panels eg. The air conditioning panel being of the FO side. Kevin
  14. I really enjoy the aerosoft Airbus. There's something about that "ca-clunk beep!" When you connect the ground power that's immensely satisfying. Real air stuff is also particularly good. The way the beech v2 sways when you first turn over the engines was one of those rare "wow" moments
  15. Afraid not, this is happening around 100km East of Adelaide in OrbX's Australian scenery.
  16. Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately on this occasion that didn't work. Although you have opened up an interesting line of inquiry (avatar ^_^ )!
  17. Shader cache flush = no fix FTX Oceanic -> FTX Global = no fix Uninstall Steve's DX10 fixer libraries = no fix Revert to pre-REX4 textures = no fix Hmm. Definitely DX10 related and I definitely have no more ideas.
  18. Ok thanks for the tip. My virtual memory was set at ~8000MB, I presume this is because I have 8GB of RAM installed (I've never touched it). The "recommended" was ~12,000MB. I set initial to 12,000MB and the maximum to 14,000MB. In any event, this did not solve the problem :( Fortunately, I have an autosave from about 45 seconds before the crash so I am well placed to test the issue. I have so far ascertained that in DX9 mode FSX does not crash at this point. Therefore it would seem logical that the problem is connected to DX10 in some way. I have tried rolling back through the shader settings using the DX10fixer but this has not made any difference. I will next try flushing the shader cache and will report back.
  19. Ever had an OOM with 59% of your VAS left? I have had exactly the same crash at exactly the same point in my flight three times in a row. I never normally get OOMs. Anyone ever had the same?
  20. It is yeah. It's a shame because I really like the bloom effect and now it's buggered!
  21. Happens here also but it also has a weird effect on certain lights such as landing gear lights in the MilViz Baron 55. Not a fan of it to be honest, I thought the effect with Gabriel's sun mod was more convincing on its own.
  22. "We choose to go to the moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard, because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one which we intend to win, and the others, too." I'm sure there's an option in the install package to turn the interior off. Why can't people just take it for what it is? A work of art.
  23. Sooo... any news on the SDK? I'm literally holding off buying the T7 until FS2Crew is released for it. I hope you're happy. You've ruined flight simulation for me now. If it hasn't got FS2Crew it's not worth buying.
