Hi. I've gone that route in Tracking, Multi monitors, VR, MS and XP ... and ended up getting a good Jstick, Throttle, Rudder, combo and with the proper assignments to you will not need them. Start with the Jstick Twist assigned to View Left / Right...

Hi. No it never asked me for the XP12,which is a Digital dload from LR, but it keeps asking me for the DVD for XP11. My understanding is that after you get the the digital XP12 it should no longer ask for the XP11 key but it may only be if you get the XP12 at the same time with getting the Free XP11? Where did you get your program from, where is it installed, do you also have XP11..? It may help the rest of us to see if we can duplicate what you see. I have about 5 versions ox Xp11 and at least 2 of XP12 on different drives but None in the ..Program directory.

Hi. I admire your set up and appreciate the amount of work and effort it takes to build something like that. Over the years I've gone trough many combinations, Moving platforms, multiple screens... and I am now back to one large monitor, 4K with some very unusual controller assignments to allow me the views I need to perform the operations I need. I use the sims as a tool for GA, and recommend it to others that may be interested in aviation. As to the above points, with respect, except for #6 I have no real interest in, they were fine, actually better, in XP11. I do not see the practicality in most of the so called added features, and in #6 look at the C172 in Straight and Level flight. Try a 45 Deg bank turn and exit looking at the fuselage as you exit. That is not how a 172 or any other light GA behaves. Someone got carried away wit lighting and useless stuff making the sim useless for most people that used the XP11 with a reasonable frame rates. I am sure they did that driven by one the worst release in history, the Assobo bunch, and trying to compete with them for visuals / useless features. I expected more from them. I still support them but I have very little hope for them fixing things given all the necessary computational power / processing required to keep running some these useless "features" Drive way leading to the homes? I've been RW flying for a very long time, never ever have i looked at any driveways, or 3D trees, and I hardly think that some of those orange / yellow droppings, in the Clouds Few can be called RW representation of anything called clouds. See some of the pics included, in Clear settings the same location and time which is what I mostly use, and compare it to XP11, in XP12 is basically useless as VFR. And all that at about a loss of 1/2 or more of the FPS. I appreciate any substantiated comments that would show a different point of view. I understand that this is Beta but some of the things that are not proper are pointing to lack of interest in the product like the C172 SL flight.

Hi everyone. The only thing that I can see, that they did / improved on, is their Visuals, reflections in the puddles?... things I never actually cared for or seen in Real life. Does anyone else have a Total Active / On time of about 10:00 min? Look in your Main Directory, where X-Plane. exe is in for a file Log.txt, and at the end you should see something like state_ShuttingDown and the time. About 5 min of that is Load time and in actuality you only get about 5 min of actual use. They should reevaluate their priorities if they want to continue in the Sim World, at this point just about everyone I know will Not be purchasing it unless some serious improvements come along.

Hi. I predicted that this will be the result, after seeing the Assobo release. Get FSX, and or Xp11 and forget about these new releases. They actually manage to mess up the C172, Prop looks like a baseball bat being twirled around, no way to select the In cockpit view to see both Wing tips Top of cow cowl and full Instrument panel..... I have no idea what the customer base they are looking for? El Wannabe Capitanos that cannot hand fly their planes / pretenders. Useless as a tool for RW GA pilots. I do not see how this can be improved to be useful but I do hope. The other bunch will never be able to do it, they seem to lack the will and knowledge. I am glad I still have an FSX in an unopened box, it should last me a while, assuming I can keep installing it which is getting very difficult.

Hi everyone. > Not likely to happen , see my last paragraph. I've been in RW and SimW for many years. My first sim was before PC sims existed. I wrote my own Nav VOR, ADF sim on the Main frame, and Minis, before PC existed, had all the Micros sims, and many hundreds of hrs in the 6DOF C130. I've purchase just about every sim since they first showed up, toys / games and for Professional training and built my own 3DOF motion chairs..., created my own acft from scratch and modified many of the existing flight models to better approximate what I know to be more Real life like representation of the actual acft flight dynamics that I fly in Real World. In my opinion this is the absolute worse release that I've seen. When I first used it and did an approach into an airport that I fly into on a daily basis, I did not recognize it at all. The Tower was the wrong shape, there were trees and building.. where they should not have been, the Flight dynamics model was incorrect, even the numbers were off... I expected a lot from this sim, it had a good foundation and my hope was that they will continue to improve on that not turning it into a game / toy / scenery viewer that forces you to be on the Inet, and have MS smell your shorts every time you want to practice and or use the sim. Add to that the continuous forced on us, broken updates.. and you have a huge disappointment. I have no real hope for this to become a useful sim / tool, ever, and as long as I can use FSX and XP11 with my own scenery this will not be used and I do not recommend it to any serious aspiring pilot. There will be what I refer to as fanatics, pretenders, that will never listen to any constructive input and will try to discredit people that actually have the best intentions to improve everyone's experience including this sim.

Hi. Moinfo details for better help. What Jstick Make, model... Typically Rotation is NOT used for Throttle. Unless I am misunderstanding something as X axis should be used?

Hi. What Version B58, what display resolution... and XP do you have? I run in 4K 11.55.Rc1 with the B58 version below, see pic, I have an indicator, typically for TO is around Up 3. P acf/_file_writer_version 113601

How? What keys / buttons do you use? How close physically are the two controls to each other? I've never had that happen, but you may have more that one key / button assigned to the same function / Gear?

Hi. Did you try to create a Flight Plan and have it flown? I only used AI flight once and I do not know if it will work?

>>Where Is Blue Sky? Hi. There are many different procedures that yo can use you to get the colors you want in XP. Set the Weather in Menu>Flight>Flight Configuration>Weather to Visibility 100 clear. The simplest is after you start XP go to Menu(top line)>Developer>Show Sky color and try “hialt” Use the LUA and create your own Script, see my example below. Just Rename it, remove .txt, and place it in x:\...\Resources\plugins\FlyWithLua\Scripts folder, see procedure inside the file, and you can use it to also improve your Frame rate if you assign keys to the Increase Decrease LOD(Level Of Detail). See the pics, at KFUL in the cpit and Outside a view from above KSNA looking West at 2:22 Zulu Aug 11. Post here if you have more questions. LOD-Vivid-FPS-Fog13.lua.txt

Hi Grizz. If you have Mouse with the Wheel try and navigate to the area and use the wheel Up/Down. You can also do multiple clicks also. Make sure you turn Off Cinema Verite and your panel is stable / does not move. This has always been a problem and at some point, hopefully XP12, they will make it easier to Speech interface / control some of these inputs that can take many clicks / a long time to get done.

Hi. Col. is correct and I would use that as best answer. That said I do have a couple that I carried over from before 8 and they still work. One actually has a 3D cpit and the others are 2D only but I would try to see if they have some updated versions of the ones you want before I spend time with trying to port them using PlaneMaker.

Hi, You can find your .cfg in .....\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX and you can View / Edit it with any Text editor. I would just Rename it and try a new assignment/s?

Hi. 3D Pro works great I've had many of them and never had any problems. Do you have another controllers? Rudder pedals...? Make sure you only have one controller assigned to each function. Calibrate in Win 7 if no luck. Try to swap assignment temporarily, x to y... and make sure you set a large Null zone and see if it help?

Hi. I am not sure where you dloaded the acft but you need to confirm that it is XP9 compatible, not many new acft are, presently. Use the acft that came with XP9 or look for the ones that are compatible with that version. Post exact acft and location you got it from for better help. You can try to use the PlaneMaker in XP9 to try and port it but the success rate is very very low.

Hi. I am not familiar with that Video and it's vary likely that it will Not support Vulkan which is the preferred mode for XP11. You may want to ask the question on xplane.org site?

Hi. Dell Latitude e500?? Is it e5500? e500 Does not come up in Search. If 5500 there may Not be sufficient RAM for XPlane and the Graphics processor may not work either? Memory RAM 2 GB? Graphics Processor Intel GMA 4500MHD Do you know what Video card, and driver ver, you have? Did you update your Video driver? Some later vers seem to have some issues?

Hi. What specs? I have yet to see a PC, built within the last 5 years, unable run some version of XPlane. Try and dload the XP10 demo ver and see if that runs?

Hi. If you have an Android device you can use xConn.exe and Avare from Playstore or post here and I can tell you how to get a direct Dload, if you do not use Playstore like I do.

Hi. The default scenery in XP is not very good, as it pertains to streets buildings... but the Mesh (Altitudes..) is very good and the distant terrain looks right, but that has an easy fix, free app Ortho4XP will give you a much better scenery than you can get in the Assobo20, which does not deserve to have anything flight associated with it, is at best is scenery viewer, inaccurate at that also after they add all the trees, weeds... The cost is storage, which is not very expensive now and some time invested. All the Pilots, CFIs.. that I know have either stopped using it and or asked for the money to be returned, I do not think they have the knowledge / people to ever turn that around. No missions with default but there are free addon missions you can download. If you are serious about flying, and want to practice as close as possible to Real World, XPlane with Ortho, or you can buy some, and or FSX with addon scenery, or create your own with EarthTile? are your best bets. You also know you have a reliable sim, not depend on the Internet, and some external power that may or may not work. Post here if you have any questions.

Hi. I know that it can be overwhelming at the beginning, but it is actually very easy after you do it once. The best thing to do is do one tile with default setting, read the text I posted earlier, and do a tile, the worst that can happen is spend some time and have to delete some data that you do not want to keep. Just use All at once, just make sure you set area up and the location for your finished tile and the Global scenery path for the Overlay extraction otherwise you will not building, cars...

Hi. I am not sure what editing you want to do but typically any art editing is done outside, youtube may best to find info about it. For coastline editing look for a file Basic Guide for Reworking Ortho4XP Coastlines by David Erard.

Hi. It depends on the process you need. If you want to adjust the colors you do not need use Ortho, if you want to insert a higher resolution area, extract overlays.. you will need O4XP. Typically the thinking would be, in most cases you need O4XP but if you have to repeat some of the operations some of the data is already saved for you and you do not have to redownload. O4XP is smart enough to go use it until you delete that data.

Hi. No the Preview does not affect the finished tile, just the settings on the first page. I use ZL13 to preview. Yes, a finished tile can be edited for zoom areas but. to the best of my knowledge, not completely Off line. O4XP saves the Altitude and Images in a separate Folders and makes things easier / faster if you try to edit certain things later. Below is a quick Tutorial and some sources. After installing and starting the program, it suffices to do the following steps. · Select the Base folder on the main page. Just select your "Custom Scenery" folder. The program will put the output into that folder. It will create a single subdirectory for each tile that you create. · Select BI as image source and 16 or 17 as zoom level. · Select the "Global Scenery/X-Plane 11 Global Scenery" folder in the Settings / Tools as custom overlay folder. · Open the world map by clicking on the world icon. You can move the map with the right mouse button. Double click somewhere to select a tile. Shift click to make it a target for the built. · Check five boxes below "Batch build tiles" ("Assemble vector data", "Triangulate 3D mesh", "Draw water masks", "Build imagery/DSF", "Extract overlays"). · Click "Bach Build". · Alternatively, you can also use the buttons in the main window. · Check the output in the main window. · Create a link to the overlay directory in the program directory from the "Custom Scenery" folder. In Windows, you can just copy and create a link with the right mouse button. Alternatively, you can of course simple copy the complete folder. · Start X-Plane and close it. · Edit "Custom Scenery/scenery_packs.ini" with Notepad++ or another simple text Tutorial with less hassle: Other tutorials for Ortho4XP (extend this comment to see more): How to improve the water appearance: How to create multiple tiles at once: How to get perfect and smooth runway slopes: How to get sharper photoreal imagery when very close to the ground: GERMAN/DEUTSCHE Version meiner Ortho4XP Tutorials: Posts about Ortho https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/160109-naip-source-best-quality-usa-orthos/&tab=comments#comment-1525312 This tutorial will hopefully help you in getting NAIP setup for Ortho4XP.
