  1. Who here has P3D or the new sim 2020. Do you think it's better then FSX and, can FSX aircraft be flown in P3D and FS2020? Since i can't trust amazon or e-bay to purchase FSX, I'm forced to change sims. Which one should i buy in order, to get back in the air.:cool:
  2. Yes I'm in a 30 min demo mode and, no acceleration is not installed. Tried to fly today and ran out of time, the sim asked for a product key which comes back as wrong key. I no longer have the original key that i purchased FSX with years ago so, i guess my sim is offically gone. Need to get new copy of FSX and acceleration, however i no longer trust amazon or e-bay. Any ideas where i can get those two sims?
  3. Well i did a virus check on my external hard drive and, no issues were found on any of the files. Now the question becomes..Does anyone know where i can get a new version of FSX and acceleration? Mirosoft doesn't have any on their website, they are only carrying flightsim 2020, many people are saying it sucks! The graphics are great but the sim it self well, it needs a bit of work not many third party planes to choose from neither. I'm backing up all my aircraft and addon scenery files just in case, i can no longer get into the sim. Man i miss flying i haven't flown the whole month of Ramadan and, so far this month as well. Getting a new computer and building my sim from scratch, i need to find those two sims though. Thanks for the input.
  4. Well they can bill all they want and, as much as they want because....I use gift cards for my purchases load the money on the card, just enough to get the product..Nothing is ever left on the card afterwards and, i then delete that card from amazon.
  5. ...No, i don't do the online banking thing, on any of my devises.
  6. ...Yeah your right my T-4 external hardrive can be infected, I'm going to run a check on it today. Thanks for that advice!...I'm going to get a new account as well.
  7. Well your right it was a bad move on my part but, my thinking at the time was. Since i placed it on an external USB drive and not my computer, i didn't think this would happen. Like vegas:whats goes on a USB drive, stays on a USB drive..Thats what thought at the time, hell anyone would have thought that.:eek:
  8. Okay heres how this whole thing started. I downloaded FSX Deluxe to a USB drive, amazon sent it to me out the blue..(I didn't order it they just sent it to me). Ok, I'm looking for a new sim anyway so what the heck, i downloaded it to the USB. Get to the activation srceen and begin to input the product key, as it turns out the product key is wrong. Meassage says activate now or later i choose later, the sim comes up no problem. Now heres where it gets weird, i unplug the USB in safe mode then, restart computer and start FSX installed on my desktop. I have had FSX on my desktop for years all of a sudden, it's now asking me to use a product key to activate the sim. What gives?! I no longer have the product key, to the sim i have on my desktop. Guess amazon sent me a used sim, in a box that wasn't associated with it.
  9. Yes i have and nothing keeps the sim from asking to be activated now or later.
  10. Heu Guys! Opened FSX this morning and out of nowhere, i was asked to activate now or later. Has this happened to anyone here? I have had FSX on my computer since 2010, i no longer have the product key. Why is this happening and, how can i get it to stop?:mad:
  11. Well F/S Accelration finally arrived...That's the good news. The bad news is that it came with a corrupted scenery file and, it messed up my laptop during the install process. I'll never order anything from amazon again!
  12. Hey Guy's! I ordered flightsim Acceleration from amazon last week, and it finally arrived today..Below is what they sent me, has anyone ever flown this sim?
  13. Guys have anyone here ever used S/B flightplan software to plan a flight? How did you get it to follow the plan? The 727 has no GPS and, you cant get it to follow an FMC neither. I love the plane but I'm tried of flying vor or heading, sometimes i get lazy and just want to press that GPS button and go. Any ideas on how to get this done?:D
  14. Anyone know where i can purchase flight sim acceleration? Can't find it on amazon they are all out of stock, tried the flightsim store too. Nothing there so far on the menu.
  15. You might be right i have that sim coming in afew days.
  16. Well Iv'e tried to look for that button however, i don't know where that is.:cool: Where is the power button located?..Can you take a snapshot of it and, place the picture here? Thanks.
  17. I'm using the regular FSX, Acceleration isn't installed...
  18. Hey Guys. Just downloaded the Dino Cattineo F-14D, great plane however the panel display won't show. The aircraft is powered up with engines running, can't get the MFD (If thats what it's called) to show. Those two parts of the panel are Black as if, they have not been turned on. Maybe something I'm missing, how can i get them to display?
  19. Wow you mentioned a lot of things, i haven't considered concerning this issue. 1.Where can i find the default FSX scenery? 2. Did you install the landclass files in the same folder as the airport files or in a separate folder specifically for the landclass..No 3.I remember installing the land class scenery, i added it to the Addon scenery folder, then installed it in the scenery library. 4. Which airport did you open in ADE - OTBD or OTHH?..I think it was OTHH. 5.where was the source file located..Not sure where that might be to be honest. 6.If you opened the default FSX file for OTBD then you will not see the obstructions as the default (due to the observations made above)...OK i will try opening that file if i can locate it, i don't seem to know where that is. Thanks for all the info and your help!
  20. Whats up guy's! Know i asked this question before but, can't seem to slove this issue with, PHNL airport having no taxi lines. Checked my addon scenry file nothing with PHNL is there however, i found a PHNL BGL in the global scenery folder. Would love to satrt flying there again, how can i fix this problem? Thanks
  21. Ok. I deleted Doha and the land class from the scenery library however, the problem still exsit their are no addons attached to this airport. Now the question becomes how do i get rid of the parking spaces, and gates obstructing the runways? Can't find any videos showing how to remove items, just how to add things to an airport. Used the ADE tool to bring up the airport but, the obstructing did not display...If you are versed in doing this please, do a video showing how to remove these items from those runways....Thanks for responding.
  22. Yes it's OTHH and it's freeware checked both airports, both have the same issue. Purhaps it is overlayed with another airport, thinking about turning off Doha and land class fro the scenery library. Would that be the right thing to do in this situation?..I have already deleted Qatar from the addon scenery. Also is the ADE even the right utility to remove things from airports?
  23. Hey, Guy's! Tried flying out of OTBD airport today and noticed, three runways were covered by terminal buildings...Check the image below. As you can see two runways are covered by two huge parking spaces and, the runway to the left are covered by gates. Don't know what those three white dots are, at the start of that one runway. Does anyone know how I can fix this issue? Tried using the ADE tool however, the tool doesn't show the defects. when the airport is displayed.
  24. 1.SIX NMS OUT. 2. ALT: 2.200FT 3. SPD:150 4. AIRCRAFT:A350-941 5. Sichuan Airlines. What would be the V-Speed that would bring the aircraft, right down to the piano keys? Sorry their isn't a prize for the right answer.
