  1. Hi chaps, I just reinstalled P3D v5 on a different drive. Orbx central does not seem to be activating scenery now. I've tried validating an airport, and uninstalling and reinstalling the airport. No prompt when starting P3D about activating a new scenery area, no sign of scenery. I suspect Orbx central still thinks my sim is in the old location? How can I change this? Thanks!
  2. Micro prose were great, I've kept some of the manuals. The golden age of combat sims. I began with the vic 20, wrote my own flight sim for that, it was not too bad for 3.5 kilobytes of useable memory! I kind of think of a 286 as a "new" PC, they seemed very modern when they came out. Also had a 486, I remember showing my friend Gomez the Red Baron 'flight sim', he was a pretty good coder, his response was that "there's no way a computer should be able to do that!". Also spent a lot of the time with f-19 by microprose, I remember telling my brother "look at that river down there, this is just like real life". He responded that it just looked like a line on a computer screen to him, i guess you needed better imagination for simming back in those days. [emoji4] Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk HD
