As the title says, when you install the free SWS F-4B Phantom your dll.xml file will be over-written. Users of FSUIPC4/5 will lose their drop-down menu.

My FSX dll.xml also had a slew of OrbX...

It appears that the A2A site is down again this morning. 0800 PDT.

Nick posted over in the AVSIM P3D forum that this is probably due to some troubleshooting efforts for some issue. Should be temporary. Nothing 'personal' :)

Unfortunately "Documents/'Prepar3D v4 Add-ons'" is the directory put forth by Lockheed-Martin as the preferred 'default' add-ons directory.

I, for one, do not want add-ons cluttering up my System...

I have an old Logitec gamepad attached to my system along with my Saitek X-45,
Pro yoke and dual throttle quads.

FSX sees the gamepad as another controller and I assign controls to the various...

In my FSX and P3d V2.5 installs (and my seldom used FSX:SE), I have an empty 'Addon Scenery' folder in each of the sims directories.

I have 2 HD partitions, one for Addon Scenery files and one for...

I am aware of that and looking forward to it when Pete finishes the new version. I need to ask him
about the inclusion of Lua capability as well.

I have 7259 lines in my current FSUIPC4.ini file and 40 Lua files, most containing multiple functions, and I am not looking forward to anything that will essentially erase hundreds of hours of...

After reading a post in Pete Dowson's FSUIPC forum I can categorically say that when the time comes for me to abandon FSX, it will be a move to P3D x64.

There is absolutely NO way I will move to...

"Blue Eagle I" BuNo.131627 was a 'radio plane' and flew missions out of Da Nang while Blue Eagles II, III and VI (444, 641 and 655)
were Radio/TV birds that flew missions out of Tan Son Nhut. Those...

They are contained in the FSUIPC4.ini file. That is a text file that contains all your control assignments and a whole bunch of other stuff.
That file is in the FSX\Modules folder along with all the...

Klaus,
Thanks for including the OASU/VX-8 Connies!

Of the Connies, only "627" was based at DaNang and flew evening missions up to the
area off Hai Phong to do out broadcasting.

"444", "641"...

Klaus,

Here is a link to the NC-121 repaints I did several years ago of the 4 OASU/VX-8 Connies that
flew out of Tan Son Nhut and DaNang. They aren't the highest quality but hopefully '627' will...

You need to add this aircraft, parked in one of the revetments on the south side of the field. It is a Navy NC-121J of OASU in 1966/67,
which became VX-8 then VXN-8 in the 1970 time frame.

I am saddened to hear of Ron's passing. My condolences to his family. He will be missed.

This right here sucks:

Q20 For whatever reason (PC crash, new version of P3D, new PC build, OS re-install), I am re-installing all or some of my Orbx addons. Will I need to re-download them all...

You, of course, mean Accu-Feel. Accusim is only available on the A2A aircraft. Accu-Feel is the addon for
non-Accusim aircraft.

A scenery file for the former WWII USAAF base, Steeple Morden located in Cambrigeshire, is now available in the Library (Link below).
The scenery was created by Terry Flemming and Gary Gentry.

Fortunately I am traveling now, and have been for the past several weeks, so have dodged the bullet

A VAS of 3 GB isn't that bad considering you are flying an 'advanced' 3rd party aircraft. That leaves you
about a 1 GB margin (25%) before you will experience an OOM error.

I don't start worrying...
