    I don't care what you call me.

     

    Neither do I.

     

    What I do care: on May 5th 2022 I payed 60 USD for a three year First Class Membership subscription.

    Since the new forum software was implemented, I don't see any visible proof of it anymore.

    I want to know where my money went.

    So in a way, I also care "how well the forum goes about it's business".

  2. It isn't until lately I started wondering what happened to my First Class Membership, when I saw the badge applied to another user's avatar but not to mine.

    I wonder if all (if any) existing First Class Members were correctly transferred from the old to the new forum software. 

     

    Could someone enlighten this?

    There is no hide infotext=0 in the cfg. file.

    Just for the record:

    the correct syntax is HideInfoText=1 or HideInfoText=0 (default).

     

    BTW Some RW airplane crashes are confirmed to be caused by disabling warning systems (more spefically by popping circuit breakers).

    I have another tweak should you require it. Anyway, just replace the file I'm giving you for your original.

    The attachment contains the replier's fsx.cfg.
    This file has hardware specific sections, and can simply not be transferred from one computer to another as a whole.

    Same goes for tweaks: what works on one pc, may not on another.

    Be careful.

    I have the disc pack,of PMDG 747, Queen of the Skies for FS2004…….Can this be installed , somehow , in FSX. ….and work😀??

    When going from FS2004 to FSX, MS discontinued quite some gauge types.
    You might get it installed manually, but you won't get it working. Not worth the effort.

  6. Those files are backup files of aircraft.cfg, made by "some" addon installer.

    They reflect how the .cfg file looked before the installer did his thing.

    They will most probably be used again by the uninstaller of that same addon.

     

    By studiously comparing the .cfg and the .cfg.fsf_VFX_PFX files, one might be able to determine what installer created these files.

    Looking at the extension, one might suspect it has something to do with effects.

     

    As the file isn't just plainly called aircraft.cfg, it isn't treated as such by the sim.

  7. Downloaded and installed it after all.

    The chopper loaded with engines and rotors running (my default flight is the Cessna with engines started).

    Manual flight is OK, very stable. Didn't try any AP.

     

    I did notice the addon requires Acceleration.

     

    I hope this helps,

  8. I did find by looking close at gauges that the engines seems to be running it is the rotor that is not turning.
    I don't have that chopper, just had a look at the pics on that page.

    Not an expert, but have you tried those red/yellow levers coming from the overhead?

  9. And, Wim, the last post above may make some sense to you also?:rolleyes:

    I does (Dutch is my native).

    Most important: it's outdated (from 2008!), the Aviodrome Museum stopped supporting the package since, the link to the support site is dead.

  10. Unfortunately you're right.

     

    I found this disappointing description on the Flight1 product page.

    OTOH I have a Livery Pack that bundles lots of freeware liveries (including an auto-installer).

    As all of it's content can be found somewhere on the net (including this site), and it requires the registered payware version,

    I don't think there's a problem in sending it to you.

    I'll be in touch.

  11. My thinking and I could very well be wrong, maybe someone converted these old files to FSX, put a lock on the package as it is sold, and any mods to the program will be prohibited!
    Yes, you are wrong. It's genuine FSX.

    One of the modelers was Jan Visser, who made the VC for Manfred Jahn's C-47.

  12. We will see what Wim thinks when he reads your current problem

    As always, he thinks he wants to see the [fltsim.x] sections of the textures that are not adding :cool:.

     

    This is the folder of my DC-2. Nothing special about it. No limitations on adding textures, as long as you follow the rules.

    The items off screen are all texture.xxx folders (34 in total).

    My aircraft.cfg has 40 [fltsim.x] entries (different texture/panel combos).

  13. I suppose 07C isn't displayed either?

     

    For the non-familiar with EDDF:

    the latest runway 07L/25R went operational in 2011, causing the "old" 07L/25R to be renumbered to 07C/25C.

    Given the date, this change isn't depicted in stock FSX or Accel.

    So IMO what the OP actually isn't seeing is Rwy 07L/25R.

     

    Back to OP: what addon are you using, and are you sure you have ACTIVATED it in the FSX Scenery Library?
