Singularity

This looks SICK! I feel kinda taken aback; I really didn't pay much attention to A2A's Cessna aircraft until last week- I have invested heavily in a bunch of Carenado aircraft (don't get me wrong they aren't bad, just not nearly to the level of A2A). Will pick this up soon! Good work A2A!

I have only tried RC. I fly FSX (and X-Plane) to LEARN about flying (and the enjoyment derived from that obviously), from a technical aspect and a procedural aspect as well. I never, ever fly without RC, unless I am flying VFR. Default ATC simply doesn't compare. If you are serious about learning real-world procedures, I can vouch for RC for hours and hours. Like others have said, it's not perfect, mostly due to limitations in FSX itself. I don't find the SIDs/STARS thing too big of a deal- if you are using a flight planner that will convert the SIDS/STARS to waypoints, it becomes, at least to ME, a moot point. Just my two cents- and remember (I have not tried either of these though- this is just from research)- that if you really want to go all-out, look into Pilot Edge or, if you are OK with dealing with limitations and hit-or-miss ATC quality (but much bigger area coverage), look into VATSIM.

Feel There ERJ-175/195 and the Carenado Cessna 340. haha. Yeah, I like both GA and airliners. Bout to start on the Aerosoft Airbus and start getting into the Carenado C182T I just scooped up.

Hello all. I just purchased the 340 (my seventh or so Carenado product) and as usual,am totally in love with it. I have an issue with the Kohlsman (sp?) knob for the pressure setting on the altimeter though...when the FSX environment is 29.92, and you hit "B", the setting goes to 29.91. It seems that the pressure settings are off by one digit...ie, if ATC tells you altimeter setting is 29.95, the C340 altimeter needs to be set to 29.94- and indeed, if you hit "B", it goes to 29.94. Any ideas here?

Well, I knew it would be something stupid that I overlooked. What you are saying makes sense and I am 100% sure that it is the issue now that you point it out. I don't recall hearing the "ding" and I should have been paying more attention. Thanks for your help, I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to post that response.

I had this happen twice today- I replicated it the second time and made sure the flightplan in FSX and in RC were correct. I have never had this issue before- I flew the Feel There ERJ-175 KDTW to KJFK. I am pretty experienced with the ERJ series and have flown this jet numerous times before using RC with no issues. This is my route...generated by FSX, simple, no SIDS or STARS... CRL--->COHOW--->SURLY--->HAMIT--->JHWBFD1--->HOXIE--->SFK04--->STENT--->MAGIO--->LVZ--->JENNO--->HARTY--->STW--->LGA--->JFK. At about 25 nm into COHOW, over Lake Erie, I am handed off to Toronto Centre. This controller tells me I am off course, and asks me to turn to a heading of 275 degrees (west), esentially sending me in the complete opposite direction. What on earth? LOL. Very frustrating. I searched and couldn't find anyone else with this issue. Any ideas?

Thanks Jesse. At this point I can only conclude that it in fact IS working but like you said it's just too subtle. I cannot see any reason why it wouldn't be working. I just got the Feel There E175/195 and I plan on spending time learning that aircraft (comes with a pretty sweet FMS that's quite deep) and learning more about flight planning so I guess maybe I will start to see some differences as time passes. Thanks all.

Hey guys, My resolution settings are set to the absolute highest setting. Still nothing- I tried slewing around the Himalayas, and switching between the stock scenery and the Mesh with no difference. I then tried re-installing using the directory that the install recommends (FSX/scenery) and I still did not see any difference. I do not have any other mesh installed.

Ya, I did some flying around too in the Himalayas. No difference whatsoever. Maybe there is some registry issues from my previous installation? At a loss, I might try emailing FS Genesis.

Joe- Thanks for the info, that is good to know I will do some testing. I was looking for a quality jump in the flatter areas around Frankfurt, London, etc.

Hey Hawkeye, It was recommended via a tutorial thread on another forum (not sure if I am supposed to post threads to other forums on here). It seemed that to work for a lot of people and the author of the tutorial is a pretty well-respected member so I decided to go with it. It is supposed to help with de-cluttering your add-ons as opposed to installing it in the FSX/scenery directory. I want to add that I did also try the default install as you mention with the same results. I took of FSX completely (deleted all the saved files etc) so I am pretty perturbed at these results. From the looks of it, I should be noticing a difference right off the bat? ps Nice avatar, I own the TacPack from VRS.

Hey all, Last night I purchased the FS Genesis World Terrain Mesh for FSX. I have been at it since 1pm and it is now 9pm- I am confused as all get out. I followed the method I found on another forum and created a separate director outside of FSX and it now contains all the .BGL files in a subdirectory called "scenery". I select it in FSX, and it goes through the process of building the terrain data, objects, etc. However, it does not look different at all from the stock scenery. ZERO difference to my eye. Now, I fully leave the option that I am stupid completely open. Is this terrain mesh NOT supposed to be stand-alone? Is it supposed to work in conjunction with other add-ons? Or, is it just that the differences are so subtle that I won't notice them? I am on Windows 7 64-bit with an older Quad Core CPU with 6GB RAM and I just purchased a GTX 650 XLR8 card. Nothing great but gets the job done for now, I am more concerned with learning how to fly, navigation, aircraft systems, etc than eye candy. Am I missing something? I don't have DX10 activated and I have all the sliders all the way max in the "Scenery" menu under settings. Feel free to let me know if I am stupid. I started flying flight sims back in 1991 when I got F15 Strike Eagle for my C64 but I really didn't get back into it until fairly recently. thanks everyone. S.
