  1. Lovely picture, and lovely lyrics. I'm now imagining a bit of turbulence while Kirk plays the guitar solo...

     

    Ah yes!! One of my favorite musicals, Starlight Express, featured the song "There's a light at the end of the tunnel" amongst others!!

    Oh, I was thinking about Metallica and the SF Symphony Orchestra. Listen to "No Leaf Clover".

  2. Similar specs to mine (8300H, GTX1050, 8GB RAM), so it's easy to say: it may run, but don't count on that. Mine had CTDs almost every two flights, so I uninstalled it.

     

    One trick: leave FPS unlimited and use RTSS in Scanline X/2 mode. It will do the same as the 1/2 Refresh Rate tweak in Nvidia Inspector. That was the only way I could stop stutters.

     

    Now, if you aren't still sure, try paying for XBox Game Pass. First month is $1 in the US. You can cancel anytime.

  3. Does anybody have any recommendations for any good GA fast single plane for XP11? I purchased it some weeks ago, and I have been flying with the default C172, but I'm looking for something faster.

     

    For reference, in FS9 and FSX I use the Carenado Mooney. I could do the same for XP11 (there's already one), but I'd like to keep myself to freeware by the moment. Any suggestions?

  4. Acá no te van a responder en español. El idioma de este foro es inglés.

     

    En Rikooo hay varios paquetes de aviones comerciales freeware para FSX. Hace poco publicaron uno para el 787 (nunca lo probé, pues acababa de comprar el de QualityWings). Fijate allí.

    --------

    In English, so that everyone understands: Judging from the packs the OP mentions, he's looking for good freeware airliners for FSX. I pointed him to the 787 that was recently released at Rikooo. I never tried it, because I've just had purchased the QW one.

  5. Check this post:

    If you're going to stay at 1920 x 1080, your setup looks fine (based on the article I linked). Just make sure your memory is not single but dual channel. If you can bump it up to 32 GB, do it.

     

    PS, regarding SSD, you'll want to leave the 512 GB one for FS and, if possible, add a 256 GB one for Windows. And get something for storage, either mechanical or SSD.

  6. I checked in the Dreamfleet 727 (I reinstalled FS9 just for this beauty), and there's nothing in the FDE that indicates 2 different engines. Looks like they did an average of the 3 engines and put those in the Super27.

     

    Now, they may have done anything in the gauges, between limiting throttle in Engine 2 (as Tom explained), or something simpler, like displaying some "adjusted" values for the engine gauges. I mean, at the same throttle position that shows N1=95% for engines 1&3, N1 in engine 2 would be 100% or something like that. You don´t need to show the actual N1 calculated by FS9.

  7. However, the OP raised an interesting point: in my case, I signed up for the XBOX Game Pass, because it's an inexpensive way of actually checking if my computer was up to the task. I signed up, knowing that, if I didn't like it, I could unsuscribe and I would have lost only $1.

     

    And, if I liked it, I could unsuscribe and then purchase the whole thing.

     

    Well, I lost $1. Call it the price of curiosity...

  8. Bootcamp, and then try either FS2020, P3D, or FSX Steam. You'll need a Windows license, though.

     

    If you don't want to leave macOS, you'll have no other option than X-Plane 11.

     

    Which one is better? Don't ask me; I don't want to get banned hehe...

  9. For other reasons I had set my laptop regional settings to the UK, despite living in Argentina. Last night, around 22h local (already 18th in the UK) I clicked on the MSFS shortcut... and it started installing. However, 91 GB is too much for my connection. I stopped at bedtime, and obviously, just before going to work, I opened it again. I hope that all is set up for when I get back home in the afternoon ;)
  10. Study level? There is the Level-D 767 for FSX. It was a portover of the FS9 version and IIRC, it was one of the very first FSX addon aircraft released, so it may look dated.

     

    757? Well, QW never stated they wanted to develop a study level one, but something simpler. I'm not sure how does the CS 757 behave.

  11. Please tell me/us why you would need separate and therefore duplicate copies of such already existing default AFCAD data entities.

     

    Because unlike FSX (and I guess P3D), the default FS9 airports lack many parking spaces. I mean, in terminals designed in real life for 10-20 planes, there are barely 4-5 parking spots in default FS9. ProjectAI used to have a worldwide package, but that was 15 years ago and I've lost the file.
