Same issue here with Openstreet maps.

Hello everyone...its been a few years. Real life has taken me away from simulation for a while but with the release of MSFS 2020. I am getttng back at it. Looking forward to being an active participant at AVSIM once again. Bob

Run DX10 in windowed mode or utilize DX9 those are your only options if you want the cockpit tool tips.

I use EZDok and switch from full screen to windowed all the time and experience no CTDs and I do not use ENB or SweetFX fwiw.

Well, I own every product released for FSX by PMDG and I own pretty much every product released for FSX by CaptainSim (just not all variants). I'm not here to bash CaptainSim because I do like their products. It seems over the years I have come to expect a certain standard form each developer. Those standards are different due what I have experienced with each Devs products over the years. Some of CaptainSim's products have not been the most framerate friendly offerings. That being said, the 777 takes the cake at this point in time for being an absolute framerate hog in my FSX. How anyone can fly this plane and enjoy it, at this point in time, is beyond me. However, if people like the performance good for them. I waited for CaptainSim's annual sale this go around due to the negative comments that were about regarding performance of this model. So, I had an I idea what to expect going in and for 9.99 euro I cannot be all that disappointed. Had I paid full retail for this product, I would no doubt be quite upset. I hope that overtime CS figures out how to code the 777 so that it is less taxing on system resources. My recommendation at this time would be that unless you already have it, stay away from it. If it goes on sale and you want to give it a whirl then give it a whirl. It will be a much easier pill to swallow if you dislike it. Regards, Bob

Technically they are both landclasss products. However, they are two entirely different products that cannot be compared. UTX is a major change to the structure of the scenery which include some landclass and SceneryTech is a landclass only product which when properly installed and layered with UTX will fill in the gaps UTX does not cover. If you have neither, you would most defintely want UTX first. You could then at a later time layer another landclass product with UTX. I happen to use UTX, SceneryTech and X-Class and switch between SceneryTech and X-Class products depending on where I am flying. Regards, Bob

robains, If you have not already done so, I would suggest that you register on the Just Flight forums and post your issues there. It will be your best bet to getting a quick response to the issues you are experiencing. It would appear after a quick read of forum topics, there are alot of issues with Traffic 360 and a SP is already in the works. Regards, Bob

Alan, For what its worth, I think you definitely conducted yourself in a respectful manner within this thread and I not sure what your apologizing about. As far as some of the other content in this thread, in my opinion, it is childish, immature, and clearly illustrates how easy it is to hide behind a computer and disrespect others.

mcrum3, You have not provided enough detailed information for anyone to help you. How about posting the contents of your fsx.cfg or give us an idea of your slider settings? Regards, Bob

Optimus technology automatically switches on and off. You can however force the technology to always use the NVIDIA card for a pariticular application. Right Click on your desktop and open the NVIDIA Control Panel In the left pane, expand 3D Settings and select Manage 3D Settings In the right pane click on the Program Settings Tab Add your FSX.exe to the Select a program to customize: list Under Select the prefered graphics processor for this program: select High-performance NVIDIA processor Performing the above steps will ensure that FSX always runs on the NVIDIA card. Just keep in mind that Optimus technology was designed to automatically switch between GPUs to conserve battery life. Regards, Bob

Phil, Go to the provided link and download the DPC Latency Checker Tool. Take your time and read through the documentaion for the tool and how to use it. Then while running FSX run the tool and check your latency. Also check your latency with and without your USB headset being utilized and see if there is a difference. Check your latency first and then move on from there. Get the DPC Lantency Checker Tool frome here: http://www.thesycon....ncy_check.shtml Regards, Bob

Jeff, Paul is talking about a patch to Steve's DX10 fix. Not a patch to Flightbeam's airport. Regards, Bob

Use Ivona voices with MCE or VoxATC. The future has been here for a couple of years. :wink: http://www.ivona.com/en/

Turn down your AA, and turn your sliders down. All traffic at max and airport vehicles at max is a killer. It would appear to me that you have not followed any guides on how to properly tune FSX. Widely accepted also does not mean works for all. I would recommend you start by carefully reading Word Not Allowed's guide. http://forum.avsim.n...-guide-for-fsx/ Regards, Bob
