NZFF

Now have a extra PC I will put and A RETURN TO FLIGHT SIMULATOR 9 .. FS2004 on that XP machine so it will be interesting to clean that out and go for an old but new FS9 Machine.

Gidday Chris , that is hurt part , all those addons, on the norm years ago I was in , back then I had a real job only very fortunate that two NZFF Amigo's brought me up to speed , Greg and Marty , from what I have seen , the change darn right incredible, easy doubles frame rates , I was very surprised .

However I am not too much taken with hours flown but more why the display failed; it simply intrigued me. Well ya doing better than me , exactly the same .. a log book crikey what is one off those ... 10 years plus of FSX didn't batter an eyelid :D

Still need to fully d/load installed the program, $5.00 payware sitting here as backup ... will required a New HD tho to install .

Sorry to hear about these bad experiences from a some of you. I've never had any problems with them. I've only ordered 3 physical disks but they all arrived in good time. Downloads are instant and now my preferred method. This is my go to store for most purchases. When I had a difficulty with one of my downloads being corrupted my email and one phone call were dealt with efficiently and the issue was resolved very efficiently.

You must extract the files from the zip file By George I think you've got it. :wub: Don't you you just hate when you fixed something so long ago you've forgotten what you did? :angry: Another post that needs to have the issue extracted and placed as a sticky , the helpful fixes department.

Could you post a screen grab of where that purchase button/activated button is please Robin? Found it hidden away in the Configuration Manager. I was under the impression I was going to have to spend my rainy day off uninstalling and reinstalling the whole thing. The REX forums are a mindfield- the naming of the updates of their products are so confusing that I've steered clear for a long time and am fingers crossed that the version I have will meet the requirements for both sims!

Then we will see what happens. Ideally I'd like to spend six months a year in NZ and six months here, thus avoiding both the southern...

Very interesting!

Better still .. /idea.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :idea: border= 0 alt= idea.gif /> what about getting the other JK to buy the active members a copy of P3D .. seems to thro a lot to a fooseball player.

QUOTE (FunkymonkeyNZ @ Dec 4 2013,2:28 PM) Does HDR give you black screens in P3D v2? does for me Yeah, on occasion. Lookslike a bug in P3D. Hopefully LM will get a patch in soon because it is really annoying.

Ok, have been playing with settings.... Copy entire folder to the root Prepar3d folder

The FTX AI packages, for both AU/NZ and NA, have control panels. To use these, follow these steps - 1. Make a new shortcut on the desktop, by (Right Click)/New/Shortcut . 2. When the dialogue box appears, under Type The Location Of The Item , enter "(FSX Directory here)\ORBX\Scripts\OrbxControlPanel.exe" /config=orbx_cpl_ftxauai.xml 3. Click Next. Call it FTX AUNZ AI Control Panel . 4. Check the link. Right click, and click on Properties . In Target , it should say "(FSX Directory here)\ORBX\Scripts\OrbxControlPanel.exe"...

I don't use the DX10 either. I did try it briefly but didn't like it.

Very sure with the defaults and with its simply left/right mouse button on most the -/+ adjust , tuned then the STBY button to activate the radio (Shift+2) will hi-light the radio's for you . Paywares make it a little different , press the knob and drag .. mouse .. they all have different options ..

In the early days everyone checking out the ORBX airport , New Plymouth was famed for the VOR sitting in the middle of the runway , i stopped at Oamaru on release and it was fine , maybe a simple glitch , could have been a spooky welcome party .

I've been happily cruising along in FS9.5. The whole world is my oyster, never ran out of headroom after all these years. I too have been waiting for P3D to look more solid before taking a look there. At this stage there is no way I'd invest $100's in starting up a full-blown FSX sim. Of course nothing stops you from running both; I run FSX as a curiosity because occasionally there's something that catches my fancy.

Thanks, but I managed to find that one when I was doing the Southland strips. I'm doing the Otago ones now.
