Sorry, been away on work missions for quite a while. Well, I lit up my X-Plane a few days ago. Without having adjusted anything, I found that my aircraft are performing normally. No screwing left on taxiing. I simply can't explain this. Long may this last, though I don't expect it too. I'll be back when I'm circling on the throttle again.

Not sure how they do their installers, but in a case like this you need to make sure that you extract the zip file first, rather than running the installer from the zip file.

it should not make a difference, but tried both.

Ah yep, I've been through that problem before

And of course, there's VR. Although many reports I've read say the Oculus Rift is too bulky to wear for more than about 45 minutes. There's also the issue that you really are commited to living entirely in a virtual cockpit, rather than being able to combine real controls, switches and gauges with a virtual display. Only the above. You can find my thoughts on VR and P3D in these forums by searching for Vive Pro. It was a few months ago and I hired one for a week. There are newer headsets coming that have much better resolution (like the VR-1) but they are probably a couple+ years from...

Thanks, Rob ....sorry I missed your call, been all over the place like a blue-arsed fly. Will check out the link ....sorry again.

All fixed - 2 rare files missing - now replaced.

No, no VR .... I’ve just brought it so no gong back now. Now the fun of installing everything

It is so long since I did anything creative that it took several hours to remember how to tamper with things in FSX, and even more so in FS9 :wub:

23L departure AND arrival most common (and preferred)

Your the man Adam :thumbup: ....I was chuffed to think Barrington thought may have been the one ...oh for that knowledge.

Not sure that I know anyone around Levin (I'm up in Auckland). Shame - as you can't beat a "real life" session ... Anyone? Adam.

Thanks, I have another one listed, this is virtually brand new. Les

You can go some way by creating a batch file to stop services and shutdown unwanted processes. I do, but to be frank, it doesn't make a huge amount of difference. My 'slow down' is in the loading time for P3Dv4 even though I have mostly everything in the scenery library unticked except NZ stuff. Even just NZ, there is an awful lot of scenery and other files to parse. Once it is loaded and I am flying then it is ok.
