Tom C Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Started out as a nice sightseeing trip from KAST up to Orcas via some Airports en-route. Plan was to take a look at KSEA along the way to see all those tubes goin up and down. Then the computer decided it didn't want to play tonight for whatever reason. Got some shots that I thought were tidy enough to post. Also got a small question for those in the know to help me with. Taxi out at KAST. How hard is it to concentrate on checklists with scenery like this? Sun is breaking through. And now I'm breaking through the clouds over Olympia. And the question is, does anyone know where or how to turn off the red writing on the top right hand side of this screenshot within FSX? It's frustrating as hell to see something out of the ordinary and decide to take a screenshot, but having to wait for what seems a long time for this to dissapear?

Henderson Pow Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Hi Tom, Nice shots. When I take shots aswell I pause and just wait for the writing to disappear(or crop it out). Chances are though, you can do something with the FSX.CFG (if you know what to do), so it doesn't pop up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Scharnowski Posted May 27, 2011 Share Posted May 27, 2011 Nice shots! And the question is, does anyone know where or how to turn off the red writing on the top right hand side of this screenshot within FSX? It's frustrating as hell to see something out of the ordinary and decide to take a screenshot, but having to wait for what seems a long time for this to dissapear? In the [Display] section of the the FSX.cfg there are two entries: ChangeTime=4.000000 TransitionTime=4.000000 Change them to a lower number to make the view information disappear faster or just set them to 0.000000 to get rid of it completely. If you want to get rid of other messages as well ("Parking Brake", "Overspeed" etc.) change these entries in the same section to "False": InfoBrakesEnable=True InfoParkingBrakesEnable=True InfoPauseEnable=True InfoSlewEnable=True InfoStallEnable=True InfoOverspeedEnable=True Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom C Posted May 27, 2011 Author Share Posted May 27, 2011 Wow, that's exactly the answer I was hoping for Patrick, many thanks. Hopefully I can get FSX to play ball tomorrow so I can complete the flight and plan for the next one. Thanks guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
