  3. I had big problems with FSXSE in win10 upgrade to 11 no probs with sim but a lot of supporting software running my cockpit wont work. A tip my sim PC has no security installed, helps increase FR, its on the net so I can run steam I do not look at or click anything so no chance of anything unwelcome infecting it. I do all my browsing and downloading on a old slow PC with loads of security installed, never have any issues doing it this way. Howard
  4. Hi I have just released version 2 of The Natural World 2021 scenery in the store it sorts the tree problem out in v5 along with dynamic ground texturing worldwide and many other enhancements, check it out it's on offer in the store with a massive sale price reduction Howard
  5. TNW 2021 version 2 is now in the store with a massive price reduction also offering a free upgrade to presents users, Well worth a look at, it has many more ground texture sets which are programmed to displayed with more detailed and clarity, a greater variety of autogen buildings sporting a lot more shops just to mention a few of the upgrades. TNW is a global program with a stunning reality and likeness to the part of the world you are visiting, the pic is of NZ near Wellington check out Google Earth, There will be more screenshots and videos to follow but due to close family illness things are running quite to a time scale.

  6. This sounds to me like you have reach the limited number of allowed scenery areas, at this point FS will start deleting areas out of the the scenery.cfg file. just adding it back into the scenery library will result in FS just deleting something else so the way forward is to look at what scenery's you can combine into one scenery/texture folder Howard The Natural World Scenery biggles-tnw@outlook.com
  7. I'm seriously looking at your your pc spec, if it was a BMP issue then the clouds would be different, try installing Advanced System Care Free and using a free game booster. Now is not a good time to upgrade as there is a world wide shortage of computer parts with many been unavailable for a long time now, gamer's are paying silly money for quite low spec parts. Howard The Natural World Scenery
  8. No issues with me I haven't used it for a long time as I'm doing my own enhancements now you may have got a corrupt download so try re-downloading and installing, Howard The Natural World Scenery
  9. This could be one of many things do you have any cloud enhancements installed, does it only happen with certain weather themes, is it the same in cockpit or spot view, are you running X or Steam ? Howard The Natural World Scenery
  10. I have the answer you are looking for it's called "G Disk" which will clear all data for from your hard drive including Microsoft's hidden folder which formatting wont get rid of, it contains all the validation info of all MS software legal and other wise. If you have the same hardware configuration then validating win 10 should not be a problem, the G Disk program was a MS developed program, but is hard to come by now as MS removed all copy from the net, there is a very easy and simple work around, you will need to email me as MS would not be to happy about it Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com
  11. Hi all I am working on a version of The Natural World scenery for FSXSE and a update for my P3D v5 version, I popped a few screen shot while checking textures in South America which I thought I'd share, the aproximate location in Argentina is approx: Lat:S42'20 Lon:W68'57 Link https://www.dropbox.com/sh/xdiqzue27fi6lt8/AAA800hqkaSwiVrZUClq7cp4a?dl=0 I am about at the stage that I will start producing some Vids for YouTube to demo the quality that you may expect.

  12. Hi I cant speak for MSFS but it seems to be covered by earlier reply's, I have installed P3D v5 after Microsoft started trashing FSXSE before its release of MSFS, Very Very disappointed with V5 the 3D trees all look the same colour like they have high visibility vest on, ground textures are mainly default FSX a lot of my FSX addons have big problems. Did manage to sort out the trees and textures using the same format as my Natural World Scenery for FS2004 and released just before Christmas I found that Lockheed Martin had done a lot of work improving the landclass looked good by the end, but been mainly a GA person it just did not work for me so reinstalled my old Steam Edition to see if I could sort it out Microsoft had restored the awful things they had done, I decided to carry with what I had started and that is still work in progress it not only looks brilliant but has kept me sane over COViD and due for release late summer, Microsoft's 3D trees look good tho a lower resolution than v5 but the only time you'd notice it is if you go for a walk in the woods. Both v5 and FSXSE need a fairly high spec PC my sim of chose is Steam and well worth the low price they charge and does not suffer comparability issues like FSX, as with P3D it will only allow you to install on one PC if I can help further then ask.

  13. Hi there are a lot of different versions of the GTX1050ti with a great variation in performance and the sockets on the back panel, I world say yes you can do what you ask. for the stretch 24" monitors (best with 2 identical monitors) first connect them to the HDMI and the Display ports and the smaller one to the AVG port if not you will need to use the DVI using a adapter it you haven't got the cable to do it. Then right click on the desktop and select Screen Resolutions and Extend the 2 24" or all the displays, you can drag the screens to match you lay out you will need to set the screens resolutions in FS and run in desktop mode. any problems email me Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com Web : http://biggles11.wix.com/the-natural-world
  14. Hi I think I can help I am working on a copy of The Natural World graphics upgrade for FSXSE and hopefully tweak it to work in FSX I re-branded Howards Mix for FX9 to The Natural World the latest been TNW2019 freeware, I also Have a copy in the Store here for P3D v5. I have not got a due date as yet suggest staying in tough for the latest infor by email until I get my web site sorted and an new Facebook account put out, I could possibly send some early release textures when I have some ready. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com Web : http://biggles11.wix.com/the-natural-world
  15. Firstly FSXSE is one of the top sims and beats P3D v5 by a long shot, I uninstalled P3D v5, as it didn't even have a starting point for me as I like good scenery I've always liked Photo scenery and found that the more you have the slower the PC runs the best work around going back to FS9 days was never take a HDD over haft full and un-tick a few in the scenery library until needed. The plus side of a having scenery on a second drive is on a windows reinstall you do not need to reinstall all the scenery's providing you have got a up to date copy of your scenery.cfg file backup, if windows assigns a different drive letter that's easy to change (win7) by right clicking my computer/Manage/Disk Management, (win10) can be accessed through the Control Panel/Device Manager I think. I have used this method since about 2005 and its saved me a lot of time and stress over the years. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com Web : http://biggles11.wix.com/the-natural-world
  16. The Natural World 2019 is a full graphics upgrade for FS2004 here as freeware one of the most popular scenery's over the years The Natural World 2021 is for P3D v5 only and is here in the Store I am working on a rendition for FSXSE and hopefully it will work in FSX. Sorry no flights. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com Web : http://biggles11.wix.com/the-natural-world
  17. Cant help but can I be so bold as to make a suggestion: I personally would find it very interesting to do the research work and putting my own style and thoughts onto it you'll end up knowing a lot of other simmers from around the world hopefully, as I did when I posted my first scenery "Howards Mix" for FS9 now re branded to The Natural World and now copies for P3D and working on FSX and FSXSE. I would be very interested to follow you if you do it as am sure a lot of other simmers here would be. Howard biggles-tnw@outlook.com PS: Like the beer side of it.
  18. That will work on a single wide screen but not across multi monitors and I said at the beginning that I was presuming he had 3 monitor in stretch mode, which he has not clarified as yet, if he has then those settings you use will not go anywhere far enough to correct the panel or POV but the WideViewaspect remains until altered back. Those setting you suggest still work with 3 monitors stretched, I used them for a long time on my yoke for a long time along with buttons to switch easily between Lock spot and VC all my other switching are set into my full working cockpit. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com
  19. It is in all FSX based .cfg's I have used it in FSX FSXSE P3D v3/ v5 in my cockpit which sports 3x 32in curved monitors as the main view. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com
  20. yes there is, I presume you are using multi monitors there is a switch in the .cfg: WideViewaspect= listed under [DISPLAY] change from False to True. In v4 it may have a listings in the settings, you may still need to tweak the eye point a little. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com PS I will at some point be releasing "The Natural World" scenery for v4 have done v5 available in the store here, on with FSXSE at the moment.
  21. I did not start the differences between colour depth but just trying clarify a point from a earlier post, I am dyslexic and have attention deficit disorder among other things and find it difficult to retain information, at my age my conditions were not heard of I have suffered a lot of abuse even by my teachers at school to get to where I am with the qualification I have all paid for by me as I could not fill out any application forms in those days, my disabilities have never stopped my trying to genuinely help and there are probably many who appropriated having the having the difference between 64/32 bit hard explained in layman terms the subject of my first post, with regard to the FS9.exe if it works why knock it. Howard Mail : biggles-tnw@outlook.com Web : http://biggles11.wix.com/the-natural-world
  22. FS9 is a 32bit program its the bmp's which are mainly 16bit with with still quite a few old 8bit textures in there, I have done a lot of support work over many years, win10 has been the only version to cause real problems for some FS9 users who can not use it on on there new PC's, I think its more a windows problem than a FS9 issue I know the reason why but not going there in this post. I have just built a win10, i7 out of my old gaming computer and some old bit saved out of computers I have upgrades or renewed for simmers in my area its very slow for a i7 but good enough for my software test machine P3Dv5 FSXSE FSX and FS9 I am developing software for them all. while its true most copies of FS9 will install and work fine sadly not all including mine until changed the exe file and works fine now.

  23. I 'm not a windows tech wizard more on the electronics side of thing and would like to put a little more understanding into this 32/64 bit issue which crops up from time to time. As i'm sure we all know a computer works with only 2 states on/off, to view this on a oscilloscope it looks like castle battlements, the way a transistor connection works it switches on the falling voltage hence press the mouse key and nothing happen until you release it, a 32 bit system sends 32 bits of data on ever cycle whether it be a 16 or an early 8bit sending only 8bit that has been a fact since the first computer. The advances in micro circuits PC's switch not only on the falling voltage but on the rising voltage also, hence 64 bits sent per cycle, given that most simmers systems were struggling to cope with 32 bits per cycle know one saw any benefits in the early days. So 32/64 bit is a hard ware and not a software upgrade although I will concede the software has been updated again and again. Microsoft have never really considered compatibility with older programs as a priority much to the annoyance of FS9 users. I do how ever have the answer to why some cant use FS9 in win10 64bit its the FS9.exe file needs change to the 64bit one link to my dropbox:- https://1drv.ms/u/s!Akdd9wf_5zQNgocXmp6mk7iGh_1Asw?e=PqfuAz replace it for the one in the FS2004 directory and you should be good to go, an problems email me.

  24. Sorry for been a while replying I accept and fully appreciate and agree with everything you say one cant be to careful in this day and age. I build the odd computer for simmer friends and get some old gaming PC donated I have a i5 win7 in the kitchen which I do all my scenery work on and emails, safe shopping only, night mare if it goes wrong over 2TB to back it up so I do all other other internet work on a machine built out of old parts. The cause of my software been flagged was a fairly new security thing on the net if a new unknown file is detected above a given quantity then its flagged until it is fully checked and reported safe which means the hackers can only work small scale, its embarrassing for me but really is a good idea. My advice is to firstly hover the mouse over the link and have a look at the real link been displayed in the box. Thank for your post ideally keep your sim of the general internet and google on an old PC it doesn't need to run faster than the internet.
  25. I emailed Nels said the red caution triangles were part of the file library so simmers could flag files well i did not flag my comments and looking at the positive posts neither did others so suggest you just ignore them Howard
