  1. Hi everyone, The title says it all. When I search the airport list, there is no listing for KABQ. I probably did something stupid, somewhere, sometime...and have not flown into or out of KABQ for a very long time. But, this morning, I wanted to do so...but, no listing...any ideas on how to correct this are appreciated...BTW, I am not sure this is an Orbx issue, but you guys are the experts. Sherm
  2. Yes, that is the Chicago skyline off in the distance at 1 o'clock Orbx, (of course), AS, ASCA, ENVSHADE, P3D V5.1 HF1 EA ON, and this time VC also on, set to Low. Sherm
  3. Thanks for your comments, everyone. Of course, this is how FSX/P3D jumps the gun on color changes, marking them on September 1. Where I live in Illinois, we do not expect real color changes for another five or six weeks...but, thanks to Orbx the default colors get some added early bliss... Sherm

  5. If you want to add to the fun and interest, take a look at Return to Misty Moorings....they have special freeware packs for MSFS, as well as the other popular sim platforms. Sherm https://return.mistymoorings.com/
  6. Greetings, all, Recently I installed the entire Return to Misty Moorings package which works perfectly. However,TFX has problems, particularly with floating buildings. Here is an example at P3D stock PAKT, not Orbx payware. But, this is with Orbx BASE, NALC, and SAK among other regions. I am certain scenery has been placed correctly in re Higher and Lower priority for TFX, as well its positioning in the Orbx Central. The issue also shows up at PAGY, and possibly other airports which I have not yet explored. Thanks for taking a look and hopefully guiding me to a solution. Sherm
  7. Whenever I get a live caller, I ask if he or she is calling me from prison. Sherm
  8. thanks, everyone...btw, since this last set, I bought and have installed Envtex to go along with Envshade. I am just starting to experiment with settings in tex and am looking for suggestions. thanks, sherm
  9. Hi Gerold, Considering your love for the DC3, you will feel right at home with us at www.dc3airways.net Sherm Director PR
  10. Good looking shots, but the Orbx scenery is so detailed and beautiful, why not do the same flight in stages piloting something lower and slower. My favorite aircraft is the DC3, but maybe that is because I am PR director for www.dc3airways.net. Come and join us for good flights and good friends. Sherm
  11. Hi Wain, If everything is running well, i.e. 30fps, I think it best to wait until prices fall from their current high levels. That could be a year or so from now, according to what I have read about Intel and Nvidia. btw, I have a 6gig Nvidia 1660ti card and run without any issues at 38 fps, which is equal to half my monitor's refresh rate. Sherm
  12. I guess that is why it is called a sunrise... Sherm
  13. I have had the pleasure of meeting Nick in his hometown York UK, where we had lunch, did some touring and talked a bit of flight sim. He is friendly and knowledgeable... characteristics always displayed in person and in our forums. Sherm
  14. I wish there was a way to reduce the excessive blueish atmospheric and ground tints. Sherm
  15. As noted, this is not the A2A, which I suspect is well beyond my skill set. Even with the Flight One, I have a devil of a time getting the right take off configuration to avoid too extreme an AoA....about 300 feet per minute works for me. I use two notches of flaps for TO at about 125 mph or more and then try a gentle lift off. Sometimes, it actually works...:-) Sherm
  16. I had a smooth TO and flight out of KPHX, with good liftoff despite the high temperature, and headed due west to KPSP. This has been a hard bird for me to master, but I think I have finally managed it. BTW, this is the Flight One, Connie that comes with P3D, not the much more study level from A2A. So, here we go, This is P3D V5.2 with EA, AS, ASCA, Envshade and of course Orbx KPSP... Sherm
  17. After reading some recent comments about Vector in 5.2 and whether it is needed or not, I installed it yesterday. So far, aside from the additional load time, I have no noticed any real differences. I will keep it active for a while for no special reason except interest in whether it makes any difference. Sherm
  18. Hi Jack, here is one which I thinks demonstrates the clarity now available from V5.2 with Orbx. Sherm
  19. True Art, Adam....keep it up... Sherm
  20. Why is anyone using Vector with P3D v5? I seem to have read in the forum that it is no longer necessary. I have not installed it. Am I missing something? Sherm
  21. Thanks Adam....I don't have the capability to go for the drama that you express in your screen shots, and I do appreciate your comments about my small effort to spread the pleasures of our hobby. Sherm
  22. Geez Lain, I wondered about when you had time to fly with everything else you do around here...:-).....time well spent in the sin air, I might add.... Sherm
