FSX Airbridges

Call me stupid but are the airbridges supposed to meet the plane? I parked up and waited 2 hours with everything as it would be after shutdown and the service armada shows up but no gates. Poor passengers are getting grumpy on me.

Am I missing some command or do they not meet user aircraft? (PS this was default B737-800)

Where did you find that command?

And to solve your FSP problem, go back to FS2004 LOL Im working through some of the tweaks in this forum and getting a few decent results on frames tho have yet to tackle AKL LAX or LHR yet lol

This didn't work for me with the first time I installed fsx, tried everything, was practicly ontop of the gate and it still wouldn't work.

The next install it worked fine, I did excacly the same thing. Bery bery strange indeed:blink:

About the fps, pull all those sliders to the far far far left, and fly in deserts :ph43r:

I think I found it first on Avism and it is also in the key controls section in FSX settings, also the reason it my not have worked is to do with the video card it won't work unless shader 2.0 is compatible on your card (howiever MS only use shader 1.3 in FS ;) )

O and about the FPS I get 12FPS or there abouts at Auckland with justflights traffic and only a Bit of Autogen hardly ready for anywhere in the US or Europe :( :(

Your scenery has to be above dence for Airbridges
dence = a few
Very Dence (what I have mine on) = a good amount
Max = at almost every gate

for the cars at the airport and fuel trucks you have to change the airport vehicle slider (I have mine on 0 becuase of the FPS impact :( )
