  1. 777simmer is a snake oil salesman who just repeats some new claim he thinks, it changes each day. You don't have to delete your fsuipc.ini file. You can change the calibration settings just for the PMDG 777, remove all the programmed axis for it and keep them for your other airplanes.
  2. I read a topic few weeks ago from a new poster in Europe who was claiming to work on a new simulator, and Tom commented before banning him that this same poster always comes up and makes claims. I have a feeling this is the same person. Beware.
  3. Did you remove the mytraffic afcad file for EGLL? EGLL is one of the heaviest sceneries around, and London is a heavy framerate area. Don't expect more than 20 fps here. You should use some fsx.cfg tweaks, like highmemfix and affinitymask.
  4. Can we get a clean virtual cockpit option? The small white marks on the yoke, below the standby lcd, and a few other place is bothering me. Can we have a clean virtual cockpit option, straight from the factory?
  5. I have never had a problem with Asus motherboards. Have you contacted Asus support? Sounds like a bad cmos battery. Do you have the latest bios update?
  6. aig_vhhh_hong_kong_ph_fsx_imaginesim.zip Download that file in the library and remove the old afcad first. Alpha India Group has a better afcad than Imaginesim for VHHH. I wish they did more addon airport afacds.
  7. A big cause of sudden increased vas is duplicate afcad files. A big problem with FTX Global Vector since they have their own afcad files. You have to go through every addon airport you have and disable it in the Vector tool, or make sure if you run the auto config that it disables all the airports, it misses many. And if you have a traffic program that adds their own afcads or old afcad files they will conflict too. I use Flight1 AFX and go down the list after selecting duplicate afcads, disabling them in the AEC config window of FTX and removing old afcads from add scenery folders. Second is to only enable the scenery you are going to fly to, and remove all the FTX airport dll files from the dll.xml file if you aren't flying or enabling them.
  8. The camera drifting is not fixed by ezdok, but it is easier to adjust when the camera moves based on the direction you are facing. I wish there was a way to get rid of it!
  9. So you never fly PMDG planes?
  10. It is an older model, but very realistic https://secure.simmarket.com/majestic-software-dash-8q-300-training-edition.phtml Majestic, the same company who makes the great Q400 I could only find a training edition on Simmarket. I know they had a cheaper version somewhere
  11. The PMDG MD-11X virtual cockpit textures are such low quality, I was disappointed when they forced the person working on an HD update to stop. Id still be flying it now if they allowed him to continue.
  12. Read the Word Not Allowed guide, you can find it by a google search, and setup Nvidia settings based on that. Use Anistrophic not Bilinear or Trilinear in FSX too. What is your screen resolution set to? 32bit not 16?
  13. delete all the lines in [Trusted] Load fsx and let then rebuild, accepting all prompts. There are so many lines, what is this? SeasonFileSwitcherV2.exe Why is an exe prompted to run when fsx runs? Post the contents of your dll.xml file too
  14. I had no problems uninstalling, I went into the UTX setup program and set the "prepare for patch or uninstall" option. Then ran the uninstaller.
  15. There are some nagging issues Carenado has ignored, many posts in the unofficial 1900d forum here.
  16. If you want to be more involved, the 777 is too automated. Go pick up the great Majestic Q400, and learn how to fly it. I personally don't like the cockpit flow and placement, but it keeps you involved as a pilot. And it looks amazing.
  17. Open up the UTX setup program in the start menu program group once, let it run through its thing, your terrain.cfg file lost their entries. Then when everything says okay, close it and start fsx, should be fixed. Also before you do make sure you have the latest utx version. http://www.scenerysolutions.com/ut_downloads_FSX.html
  18. did you read what I wrote? FSX is the best way to practice your checkride It's the best way to practice your PPL, IFR, GPS, etc. Or if you are a pilot who has always dreamed of flying a big airplane like a 777 but wont get a chance for at least a few years, the 777X is the best way to fly real routes and get that experience and enjoyment. Then use time compression or fly the 777 on shorter routes in Asia. Or fly a different plane completely. The point I was countering was the idea that you need to only do wacky things like landing on a grass airstrip, or do failures, otherwise there is not point to using fsx. With the 777X I now understand all the systems and switches, know where everything is, and can sit in the cockpit and not be overwhelmed for a checkride. I am way ahead of all the pilots just hired who have only read the manual.
  19. Stop giving out bad advice. Each day is some new snake oil you share with the forums. You are not a pilot and not a computer expert. You are just adding more noise and confusing anyone trying to search the forums for good advice. Stop playing pretend.
  20. People with crashing on exit, post your TRUSTED section from the fsx.cfg and also the contents of the dll.xml file There is usually a bad dll file causing this problem. After installing the Razbam Metro 3, which had its own DLL that wanted to run every time fsx started, I had this problem again, removed it from the list completely and no more hanging on exit. FSUIPC has nothing to do with it. Some people need to stop giving bad advice that only confuses people who are overwhelmed by all the tweaking required to get fsx working.
  21. FSX is the best way to practice a checkride, if you don't have all the free sim time in the world. To learn all the systems for the airplane you want to fly, that includes standard operating procedure. It's the best way to practice your PPL, IFR, GPS, etc. Or if you are a pilot who has always dreamed of flying a big airplane like a 777 but wont get a chance for at least a few years, the 777X is the best way to fly real routes and get that experience and enjoyment. There are many reasons to use FSX, only doing weird and crazy stuff just means you aren't interested in really flying and simulating being a pilot, but you just want to mess around in a sandbox, like loading up call of duty with bots and jumping around doing weird things. I get why some people like that, but these people aren't professional pilots or need a simulator that is realistic to do such things. Go take the default airplane and land on Antarctica.
  22. the ops center does not install the service pack, it installs an updated ops center.
  23. A_A, great support too, answered email fast with a fix.
  24. It's not a game, it is a simulator. If you get bored flying regular routes then simulating being a pilot just isn't for you. I suggest the latest Call of Duty to get that adrenaline rush.
