BTW _ don't forget that DCS World itself is free. So at present you get Las Vegas & area plus 2 aircraft for nothing. If you like more European scenery then download DCS 1.5 - which is also free. ...

Hi As far as I know there are no freeware aircraft for this sim. This may change in the future, but don't hold your breath. I think the quality that DCS accept for their aircraft is so high that...
Hi Mark, Thanks for your comprehensive answer. I only have the free FSUIPC, & I think it looks like too much trouble to start using scripts. I will have to stick to the frame - I know its not...
Hi Mark, Bought your excellent Kindle book on the Twotter, & the section about a HUD. So I managed to install & run the HUDCA program. A couple of questions. I, like you, don't like the frame. I...
Thanks BendyFlyer - got the VC update. Will look for the Tri Motor later. ChrisJD
Hi BendyFlyer. Thanks for taking the trouble to at least sort out the piston version - I think the turbine is a lost cause. I was one of the members last year that falcon mentioned about the...
Hi Joe Yes - it was as simple as adding 'SimObjectPaths.6=SimObjects\TrafficX' to Main in the cfg file. The Google query is titled 'FSX Steam - Traffic 360 Instant Fix - U Tube' & is by Just...
Hi Joe - OK - problem solved. I Googled the Traffic X & FSX.SE & found a short u tube video by Just Flight showing exactly what to enter in the .cfg file. I did as he said - took me all of a minute...
Hi Joe Thanks for your comments. There appears to be nowhere to set up TrafficX except in FSX itself - graphics settings, traffic percent, etc. From memory I have never had to do any set up - it...
Thanks Butcherbird17 I checked the FSX.cfg file (the one in apps data/roaming/microsoft) & there is no entry there for trafficX. But I also have the old FSX cfg file I was using & that does not...
Hi I decided to ditch my old FSX box set (discs damaged) & go for FSX.SE. Loaded this OK, added some aircraft OK, Loaded ORBX England & Trees HD - OK. Got my JF Traffic X disc, this allowed me to...
Just saw this addition to my own query. Yes - in fact Simon Smieman has issued a mission for the Storch _ and yes it is the Grand Sasso One to rescue Mussolini. It is available as a free download...
Thanks very much Dave - that did the trick. All OK now. I quite like the plane - it flies well & is ideal for sightseeing. Also there is a contemporary u-tube film with a test pilot showing the...
Well - there's a thing! No - I don't have either simicons1024 or plain simicons. A search of files came back empty. I had a look through various aircraft to see if I could find them, but no joy. ...
Thanks DaveB. Not for the first time I have a problem with my setup. When I drop down the radio flap there are NO icons showing as there are on your pic. I should have made that clearer. If that...
Has anyone bought FSAddOns Fiesler Storch for FSX? Have you had problems with accessing the Kneeboard & GPS from the radio panel? The manual says they are there. The cfg. file says they are there...
A quick look at Steams site says that Win 7, 8 & 10 64 bit only supported, also graphics are DX11. As standard you get a PA18 Super Cub, PA 28 Cherokee & as I understand it, a DA42 Diamond in June....
Steam have just announced that Dovetail Games new FS Flight School is available for pre order at £11.99 (UK) before 25th April. You also get a free extra aircraft as well! Waiting to see comments,...
PS to this post. I went through my gauges folder & removed anything that said dhc7 or similar. Lo & behold - no problem with gauges when I loaded up the Dash 7. I assume that FSX looks in the...
Hi DaveWG. Yes - you are right. After a reply on Flight Sim I had another go at re-installing the SOH version (but I had tried both) I finished up with 3 working gauges - the rest black - worse...
Hi - although there were no replies to my post here, there was on Flight Sim. The answer is that there is no way the FS98 gauges can be used in FSX, It really is a crying shame that a superb...
Hi, I decided to install the old faithful Dash 7 by Milton Shupe & many others. I downloaded both the pkgx version & the SOH version. All Ok until I went to fly it. I was informed that the DFD...
Hi MikeW Your mail was very helpful because it shows we are on the right lines. Following your idea, I copy/pasted the new & old cfg. on the desktop to compare them. I then copy/pasted any changes...
Here we are again! Having another look it seems that the update put the turbo amphib aircraft details in the piston amphib details cfg file as well as the correct turbo one. I have taken the...
At last the problem solved!! emfrat - you are correct - the update named the PISTON otter amphib Harbour Air as a TURBO otter amphib Harbour Air which is the same as the correct turbo otter amphib...
