VfrFlight - new free VFR flight planner
wa3pnt replied to twojastara's topic in MS FSX | FSX-SE Forum
What I was trying to explain is that any waypoints included in a Flight Plan created in FSX, and then imported into VFRFlight, are visible and can be added to the data base. All other waypoints that exist in the FSX data base are not visible, as you have explained, since they are not yet supported. THANK YOU for a GREAT Flight Planner! RodeoGeorge -
VfrFlight - new free VFR flight planner
wa3pnt replied to twojastara's topic in MS FSX | FSX-SE Forum
I loaded and ran, updating the data base, but do not see any intersections, waypoints, orairspace. If I import a flight plan from FSX, the waypoints are also imported, but all other waypoints are not visible. What am I doing wrong? RodeoGeorge -
I'm running Windows 8.0 Pro, but use the "StartIsBack" addon that provides a Windows 7 Desktop (I recommend this addon for Windows 8). I have my Task Bar set to Auto Hide, but when Panel Builder is running (and I have a black screen) when i move my cursor to the bottom of the screen the Task Bar pops up, and I can access the START button with the items I've added to the Start Menu. I hope this makes sense. If not, let me know and I'll try to explain better. RodeoGeorge

I also made a batch file to shut down Panel Builder, and then added the batch file to the Start Menu. That way I can access it when Panel builder is open. RodeoGeorge

On my wish list is the ability to use VoxATC over a network. RodeoGeorge

Nightlights for photoscenery in Prepar3D v2.5
wa3pnt replied to OzWhitey's topic in Photo Scenery Support Forum
Buried somewhere in one of the forum there is a post regarding lighting for photo scenery. It was related to the UTX Night Lighting, and UTX stated that they were working on lighting for photo scenery in the USA. I've seen no further posts since the original statement. I just dug up the link. It's worth reading as it's not a long thread. http://www.simforums.com/forums/topic50803.html RodeoGeorge -
No it does not look better than the Megascenery Arizona, which I disabled when I looked at the VFR scenery. But as I mentioned, I also have some local Prescott scenery, and I don't know if that was affecting the view. I'll report back after doing a clean install, which is going to take a few days. OBTW, I have Megascenery AZ, NV, South and Central CA, and I still notice a big hole in the scenery southeast of Las Vegas in the area of Boulder Dam. RodeoGeorge

I purchased the Arizona item. I'm holding off on my satisfaction, as my system is so convoluted with scenery (UTX, FTX, Megascenery, etc.) that at present I cannot give it a fair evaluation. I'm starting from scratch with a complete new Windows and FSX installation. I will then load one type (UTX, ORBX, Megascenery, VFR) at a time, reverting to a basic Windows/FSX configuration (using Acronis Image) before each installation. It will be time consuming, but I feel it's the only way to see what I have with each of the options. RodeoGeorge

I certainly hope you finish and release the OpenLC North America before heading back to Germany. No word on that lately, unless I missed it. RodeoGeorge

Any information on when the Xtreme Cities X SouthWest will be released? I bet this topic title catches a lot of interest! RodeoGeorge
-
Thanks to all that responded. I do not normally make long distance flights (500 miles is a long flight for me) and enjoy exploring Arizona from my home base in Chino Valley. I'm looking forward to installing the demo and getting up to speed on VOXATC use. RodeoGeorge

I also use REX4 Textures, and that is not an issue. Since VOXATC interfaces with the weather in determining various actions, my question was does VOXATC utilize the REX Essentials OD weather? I am aware of the destination WX issue that is supposed to be corrected in the new version that is coming out. RodeoGeorge
-
I have REX Essentials with OD installed, and have been using that for about a week. My next upgrade will be to VOXATC. My question is, does VOXATC play well with REX? RodeoGeorge

I just changed over from a triple screen to a large screen HDTV. One of the main reasons was that when night flying the view angle to the triple screens rendered them very dim. Now I use one of the BENQ monitors for a control monitor, and the HDTV for the main outside view. I've posted the Triple Head 2 Go in the classified listings, as I no longer require it.

I've googled it, and searched here in AVSIM, but have not found a definitive answer regarding the ability to run VOXATC over a network. I'm at the point in my Sim building where I'm going to begin the VOXATC Demo. It will save me a lot of trial and error time if I can find out whether network operation is possible. I've also read the VOXATC manual, and could not find any reference to networking in the manual. Any hep/answer appreciated. RodeoGeorge

When I switched over to FTX (Global, Vector, and their recommended LC) I wound up with flat buildings. Looked like crap. Posted on their support forum, and never really received an answer as to why. I'm back on UTX, GEX, and SC Land class, and waiting to upgrade to the UTX 2.0. Expensive lesson learned for me. RodeoGeorge

Upcoming A2A Cessna 182T Skylane Accu-Sim Aircraft
wa3pnt replied to Alex L's topic in MS FSX | FSX-SE Forum
I wish they would have incorporated a RG variant. RodeoGeorge -
Here's a link to a program that uses the AT&T Voices, but has them at a lower price. https://www.zabaware.com/products/store/comersus_viewItem.asp?idProduct=5# RodeoGeorge

Your experience with FTX Global and FTX Global Vector?
wa3pnt replied to PC Pilot Dave's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
I went from UTX/GEX to ORBX Global and Global Vector. Big disappointment for me. I've detailed my issue with pictures on the ORBX forum, but have not received a solution to date. Link to the Post http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/86421-another-old-timer-needs-help-flat-buildings-and-aec-problems/ RodeoGeorge -
I have always had my FPS limited to 30. I achieved that with the 2X580, and continue to achieve it with the 780. Where I've seen the most change is a reduction in % CPU usage, with an increase in % GPU usage. I've also been able to move sliders further right without incurring the g3d.dll error. RodeoGeorge

Well after all my enthusiasm over the improvements with DX-fixer, I received and installed my Desktop Aviator 2450B GPS today. Unfortunately it does not operate correctly when DX10 is enabled. Reverted to DX9 with the fixer, and everything works correctly. Bummer. No DX10. RodeoGeorge
