I have the same current problem. With FSX running on the latest Windows 10, I have audio for the aircraft engines, flap extension, gear retraction, etc.; but, I have lost the voice for ATC or GCA. Also, I have no interface sounds such as the click you here when you make a selection. The voice, etc., worked well last week and seems to have been lost following the last Windows update. So far, a half dozen possible solutions have failed. System uses speakers only. All engine sounds sound great. All music played on the system works fine. Any thoughts on what I might check next is appreciated.

If you have to make a key change go to: --Settings ----Controls ------Buttons/Keys Then double click on the event that you want to change and from there follow the on-screen instruction.

This is the default way they should be assigned: Action and Key(s) . View (next category) S View (previous category) SHIFT+S View (next view in category) A View (previous view in category) SHIFT+A View (previous view toggle) CTRL+S View (default zoom) BACKSPACE . If they don't work like this, you can check the assignments in you FSX settings.

GDALE14853's the OP.

If you forget to close cowl flaps in cruise, cooling drag will cause some power loss for a given power setting. Progressive power loss was one of GDALE14853's issues.

You might try closing the cowl flaps. Control is on the left panel.

You can do it by printing a list of files in the add-on directory. In Windows (or File) Explorer, hold down the SHIFT key as you right-click the folder. Select Open command window here or in later versions of Windows, select Open PowerShell window here. This opens the DOS-like command window. Type dir > printit.txt, then press ENTER. Return to Windows Explorer, where you'll find a new file, printit.txt, in the folder. You can either double-click the file to load it into Notepad and print from there, or simply right-click the file and select Print. You can change the look of that printed list by adding additional instructions to the dir command. For instance: ⦁ dir /b > printit.txt will print only the file names. ⦁ dir /o:d > printit.txt will sort the files by date. ⦁ dir *.png /o:d /s > printit.txt will list only *png files, sorted by date, and will include those found in the current folder's subfolders. To find more such options, use the command dir /?.

The gate, during normal flight, blocks the throttle levers from going into reverse. Its like a lock which blocks them at the "idle" setting and keeps them from going over into reverse. When on the ground, the gate is in the open position as indicated by the light that you see, and it allows you to put the props into reverse to assist in braking. The gate is controlled in most airplanes by a computer which senses weight-on-wheels (WOW). This prevents the power levers from being retarded aft of the flight idle detent in flight.

I've had reasonably good luck with FSrealWX lite which is free. You can get it here: https://www.fsrealwx.de/index.php/downloads/download/7-archiv/5-fsrealwx-lite You load it before FSX. They also have a paid version that has more features. See: https://www.fsrealwx.de/

I'm not sure what the answer is. I don't run DX10 and , if Tool Tips are on, the heading degrees show. If Tool Tips are off, the heading degrees do not show.

This might solve your problem: From the title screen: -----Go to Settings -------Customize ----------Aircraft ------------Then make sure "Show cockpit Tool Tips" is checked. ----------------Then click "OK"

Rick, Thank you for taking the time to respond. I just discovered the error. In this case the added models were looking for common textures that were only in the main texture folder. By copying all the common texture files to the texture folder of every model, the error was corrected. I appreciate your effort, Ray

I had this happen once years ago; but, I forget how I fixed it. I have an aircraft with 4 models. If I load the second, third or fourth model, I can then switch and load any of its other models. If I initially I load the very first model and then try to load a different model, it stays with the first model. If I load any other model ( second, third or fourth) of that aircraft and then switch to the first one listed, I can no longer switch back to any of the other three. I vaguely remember this was due to an error in the aircraft.cfg file in the past. Your thoughts?

There's also a freeware add-on that will replace the birds with Cumulus clouds. The add-on is: thml_cld.zip Available here on flightsim.com.

Manfred, Thank you for reponding. Regarding the three PM's, it was the first time I ever used this feature and when none appeared in Messages Sent, I assumed it did not send. So, I tried again, twice. None ever appeared in Messages Sent. I sincerely appreciate your time, effort and many contributions to flight simulation. Since the noted email address appeared in the documentation of the Bassler, I assumed it was public. Note: just prior to this post, I have sent a message to the webmaster to have the address or the entire post erased.

I have no problem ignoring Shift+5; but, my curiosity drives me to try to learn something here.

Thank you. I gave it a shot. No messages showed up in my sent message box; so, I'm not sure if it worked. Will wait and see.

I attempted email to Manfred Jahn but, that is apparently an old inoperative address. I've never sent a PM. How does one do that?

After all that's been said, it makes one curious as to why it's on a key.

This what the xml file it calls looks like. Unfortunately, I don't know enough about FSX programming to tell what its doing. 10002 10 14 54 (L:Fuel countdown:@1, enum) s0 0 > if{ l0 min } (>L:Fuel countdown:@1, enum) (L:Fuel pump countdown:@1, enum) 0 == if{ 540 (>L:Fuel pump countdown:@1, enum) } @Window_Keys (>K:PANEL_ID_OPEN) (L:Electrical external power switch, bool) !

Not that I can see.

On the Basler BT67, file basler_bt67_v2.zip, what is the function of Shift + 5 which is labeled "Keys"?
