I recently purchased the new Captain Sim 757-III. However, I don't have any sounds for the switches, packs, levers, etc. I only have engine sounds. I looked around and noticed that the sound files for all those are in FSX\Captain_Sim\757-III\sound, and there are TSS files in SimObjects\Airplanes\CS757\sound. I also noticed that there is a sound.ini file in the 757-III folder. However, it is not configured so that it can be used as a .cfg file for the aircraft. Is there a way to get the sound from the CS folder into the SimObjects folder so that I can use the default sound pack?

Okay, thanks for the input! I’ve found the SkyForce 3D is quite amazing, and seems similar to ENVTEX. I think I’ll just stick with what I have for now.

If you’re willing to pay for something, I’d say that REX 5 (SkyForce 3D) is definitely worth it. I recently bought it and I’m in love. Sure, you might lose a couple FPS depending on what size you use, but it basically comepletely remakes your textures. If you want real-life textures, I highly recommend RED.

I recently purchased AS16 and REX 5, and heard that ASCA is really good. I’m already loving the two add ones that I purchased. I’m wondering, is it worth it? What are your opinions on it? What benefit do I get from it, considering that I already have AS16 and SkyForce 3D?

That worked, oddly enough.

I know this is a common topic and a common issue. However, I can’t seem to find a solution anywhere. I, like many other people, am having issues with the QW 757 (Startup error: Unable to start QW757-2). Do any of y’all know a solution to this?

Yeah, I found manuals online and added them to iBooks

I sent a ticket and this is the response: ”With each PMDG product, we include a comprehensive tutorial that will teach you how to operate the airplane as is typically done by a modern flight crew. In the past we have had the opportunity to provide actual technical manuals in addition to the operational tutorial. We are currently negotiating to renew our license for this additional information and hope to be able to do so again in the near future. Many users may find various manuals freely available through many sites on the internet.”

I tried the repair function as well as a clean reinstall and got nothing

Okay, update. I appear to somehow be missing those four manuals. I just looked in my FSX\PMDG\PMDG 737NGX\Flight manuals and I only have the NGX introduction and the two tutorials. I have no clue why the others are missing or weren't installed.

It’s not an issue with all PDF files, just those 4 for me.

Thank you very much!

I didn’t see the other one. Sorry.

I can't access the FCOM (both volumes), FCTM, or QRH from the Operations Center for my NGX. I can click on them, but the supposed links do not open any documents and nothing happens.

Awesome, thank you so much

Is there any way that I can prevent the view point from shifting as my heading changes? It’s starting to get a bit annoying and don’t want to constantly be shifting my camera. According to one of my friends, ChasePlane doesn’t eliminate this.

I keep having an issue with all my aircraft. My aircraft keep either having delayed yaw (the track changes then it takes 5-10 seconds for the heading to catch up), or my AOA suddenly is basically 0. It’s extremely frustrating. https://imgur.com/gallery/kslwjmG Attached are a picture and video of the issue. I haven’t managed to capture the the delayed yaw issue yet.

oh okay, that makes more sense. thank you.

That’s interesting, because I never had EditVoicePack and I had tons of airlines names in the cry, and ATC never had any issues. Of course, ones like JetBlue or Speedbird had to be put in as “Jet Blue” and “Speed Bird” to be recognized but ATC still recognized them. I guess I could just manually input them. I have some already and it’s working fine without EVP.

No, I'm not. I had a long list on my other computer for when I was flying and it worked. ATC called out both my callsign as well as AI callsigns perfectly fine.

Is there by chance a download for an airlines.cfg file that contains all (or most) airlines? I thought I saw one a while back but I can't seem to find it now.

Okay, thanks. I wish there was a way to try out the soundpacks without buying them, but I'll just resort to YouTube videos. Again, thank you!

The TFDi 737 Extreme Sound seems really good, and certainly better than the default FSX 737 sound. However, is it worth getting if I have the PMDG 737? Is the sound pack more realistic than the PMDG sound pack? Or would I be better off getting something from TSS?

Awesome, that's the level that I'm looking for

Okay, sweet. I heard somewhere that the Flight1 MD-80 was good but I wasn't too sure.
