  1. So how do I load the 750 into airfoillabs King Air as a single unit? I ask because @Ither mod on the X-plane forum does seem to have the 750 loaded as a single unit if I look at his thumbnails. Most probably I have done something wrong and would appreciate a little guidance.
  2. Thanks for the response. That is the GTN mod i am using. reinstalled aircraft and mod, aircraft up to date, GTN up to date, same issue.
  3. Morning, I had the dual GTN 750 set up originally and decided to try a single set up with the radio and nav stack from Airfoillabs for their King Air, but then i get a GTN750 where i am unable to change nav and comms frequencies on the GTN unit. I have to change the frequencies on the Collins nav and comms stack. My GPS at the bottom of the GTN is also unable to change to VLOC on finals, even if i try change it manually. Is this normal or are there setting on the GTN i need to change. I have gone into the menu on the unit but i am not seeing any settings related to my issue.
  4. @Ither would you recommend not downloading and installing your file (https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/files/file/51824-airfoillabs-king-air-350-rxp-gtn-750-hd/) until this issue has been resolved?
  5. Thanks a lot, will go ahead and purchase Regards Leonard
  6. Afternoon, Just want to find out if FS2Crew 777 is due for an update similar to the recent 737 Reboot (which I have purchased and really enjoy!). I am not saying the 777 needs it, i just want to know before going ahead and purchasing FS2Crew for the 777, only to find out in 2 weeks, there is a new version. Regards Leonard
  7. Thanks everyone, I had an idea that the Flight1 Mustang would be recommended, mostly positive reviews thus far. Will definitely have a look at it, but will be keeping an eye out for the Eaglesoft release. I had the Citation X in FS2004 and it was brilliant then, so can only imagine their latest release will be up to scratch. Leonard
  8. I love Flight simming, I really enjoy complex and well designed aircraft for FSX. I have for example the PMDG 777, NGX and the A2A 182 Skylane, amongst others. I would LOVE to have a bizjet in my hangar but....it just seems that those who don't like Carenado, really don't like them and those that do range from ok to happy with their purchases. I am not interested in the Eaglesoft Citation X, its too outdated in its graphics. Do i get the Carenado Hawker knowing its systems are not of the same level as A2A and PMDG and be satisfied with an airplane thats ok in comparison to the others, or do i wait for the next Eaglesoft bizjet to come out? Leonard
  9. Thanks Steve, i actually reduced my AA setting from 8 in DX9 to 4 in DX10. I have deleted the [JOBSCHEDULER] Affinity mask entry in my .cfg file as per your request. Graphics texture max load was set at a very conservative 1024. UT2 reinstall seems to have sorted out the traffic issue. My frame rates now hang around 19-20 with traffic (30%) enabled. I think i may just have to be satisfied with this number as it is an improvement and i don't want to mess around with my set up too much. Thank you very much for your assistance. i will just need to live with the existing settings as it is indeed flyable. Have a good day, Leonard
  10. Morning all. I understand this is a process i need to work through to eventually having everything set up correctly, and the investment in this hobby is simply too great to not spend a lot of time getting everything just right! However, I am experiencing a big difference in frame rates from Directx9 to Directx10. I was getting an easy 25-30 frame rate reading at FACT (using payware scenery) with the PMDG 737 and traffic set at 30% from UT2. After changing to Directx10 using the fixer, frame rates have dropped to 14-19 at the same airport with no traffic ( i am not sure why UT2 is not injecting traffic into the airport, but i will have to take it up with them as i suppose its their issue to deal with). I created a clean fsx.cfg file. Downloaded the "how to" pdf done by Adam Banks (Adamski_NZ) and followed every direction he mentions. I also read through the manual and made the necessary adjustments there. The only place where i have not made an adjustment is to enable Hyperthreading on my PC as i am not sure where the setting is in my BIOS. I have however enabled all 4 cores as per Adam's explanation in his guide. My setting in FSX is the same as with Directx9 apart from the obvious inclusion of Anti-aliasing and anisotropic filtering which has now been enabled. My Jobscheduler and bufferpools settings are as follows: [JOBSCHEDULER] AffinityMask=254 [bufferPools] UsePools=0 Poolsize=8388608 RejectThreshold=212644 I am running: Windows 8.1 Intel Core i5 4590 @3.3Ghz RAM 8Gb Single-Channel DDR3 @799Mhz Nvidia GeForce GTX750Ti Is there anyone who can make sense of my post to assist getting frame rates up to acceptable levels. If there was traffic present my frame rates would drop to around 10-12 which is unacceptable. And can my PC spec handle a DX10 conversion with FSX settings set quite high (but the same as my DX9 settings)? Thanks Leonard van der Walt
  11. Happened to me yesterday as well. I am also using ASN
