Hi Col:
Interesting. Do you mean that the condition of the fans affected FSX and cleaning them fixed it? Actually, I am due for a cleaning of the cases.
Thanks
Rick

Ha! I remember sitting on the runway at PHL in seat 1D and looking out the window and seeing a similar show, wondering whether we were really going to go or not.....we went and all was well...

Hi Jethro:
Well, I've been looking at all my hardware and can't find anything broken. I have watched the task manager panes and my memory use, cpu use, and GPU use all look reasonable. I have been...

Hi TG:
Thank you for your thoughts. I suspect you are correct on the WX update, as I wrote above to Jethro. I need to research this further as I am not real sure what AS 16 is doing behind my back,...

Hi Jethro:
Well, thank you so much for taking the time to respond so fully! You have given me a ton of stuff to think about.

Hi all:
I didn't know where to post this issue, but it looks more like a problem for this forum than any other. My rig is as follows:

Win 7 Pro 64
FSX Gold, sliders maxed except for water 2x low...

Hi Max:
Thanks for your response. I will follow up and take a look at the Orbx stuff for that area. I did try out the Orbx global coverage a few years back and it did not end well once I decided to...

Hi all:
Well, after 20 some odd years of simming I never explored the Pacific, including the tropical islands, Australia, New Zealand, the island nations between Australia and Japan, and Japan...

Thanks Mark & Tim.I didn't answer immediately as I was waiting to see if anyone else would weigh in with an opinion.
I have seen an improvement by experimenting with Mipbias=3,,4, or 5 in FSX.cfg. I...

Hi all:
The twinkling of autogen trees is really annoying me. At altitude it is not an issue but in descent or approach, they twinkle. When stationary on the ramp there is no twinkling. But as soon...

I do check the arrival airport freqs just to be sure when I start my descent. It does happen that they are different for the ILS in FSX than is shown in an add on, which will be more recent. Just go...

I'm curious as to why you are running both GEX and Orbx? They do the same thing. Could there be a conflict in there?

Yes, I agree completely.. I looked at both of them and decided not for me. Next I'll look at PMDG T7.
Thanks
Rick

Thanks Mallcott and Dogdish. I went ahead and purchased the Level-D as I had a deep discount since I owned the FS2004 version. I just don't think I can go back there after PMDG and other modern...

Hi all:
Closure!
Thank you for your help everybody! The D finally rolled over on this and provided me a download update. I am very happy and have no complaints with the D. I don't see any reason to...

Nothing has been said either way in my case but the developer is dragging their feet in providing an update to the boxed which I purchased earlier.

Hi all:
As we all know some addons come both in boxed version and in download versions, although this approach seems to be fading in favor of only downloads. Nonetheless, when I purchase a boxed...

Thanks to everyone for your help. Paul's information allowed me to understand what was happening. So I followed the instructions from FireFox and as Paul warned, it may take a long time for the...

Thanks Luis. I'll have a look.

Thank you for your response. May I ask which browser you went to?
Thanks

Hi All:
Firefox has told me they will no longer play with AdBlock, which I have used for years on my laptop with Win 10. I'm being assaulted with pop up ads, which I mercifully avoided for all that...

ORBX has a following, but there are plenty of payware and freeware sceneries available to supplement FSX or FSX + GEX + UTX, which is what I run. I have about 500 add on sceneries in North America,...

Thank you all for your thoughts.
Rick

Exactly. I have spent many hours as pax in commercial aircraft looking down at the ground, mountains, and oceans. I am trying to capture the look as I have seen.
Thanks
