Thanks Berlopez,

I've found it and now have a link on my desktop for easy reference..

BTW. Welcome to SurClaro, for whatever these empty halls are worth to you?

All the best and thanks for your assistance

Bruce.

Right out of the box, FSX will install itself to C:/Program Files (x86) / Microsoft Games. THIS IS WRONG Instead, redirect FSX it to install onto your C: drive folder, especially if you plan on adding on third party programs such as REX Essentials Plus Overdrive. The reason being that the Programs (...

Thanks RD. I'm happy to know you've still got a handle on things.

...and this seems the perfect place to make this post. To hell with the rules, right? The God *beep* Rules were meant to be broken and here's my chance to break a couple, three, four of them if I can! It's been a long, long unpleasant week at work and I am determined to make the most of my time off ...

Dude's! What are all of you guy's smoking? Did you get your push back tractor license out of a box of Cracker Jacks for the crying out loud? Your push-back's are normally pretty good. Except when you disconnect from the nose wheel of my aircraft, you're supposed to return to your assigned gate parki...

I'll be damned if I can figure out how to reveal hidden files in Windows 7. I need to get at my FSX.cfg folder.

Hope all is well with you guy's.

Brucie

Thanks Mel, I've got to my User file, but don't see AppData. Must be a hidden file, but I've forgotten how or where to open hidden files.

My current OS is Windows 7 Home Premium. Can't find my FS.CFG anywhere. Any help and an updated STICKY would be greatly appreciated.

Bruce

Hope it helps, Mel!

You've designed a new flight in your head and want to try it out when you get home from work. But when you fire up FSX, it suddenly keeps crashing back to the desktop. This crap only happens when you're seriously wanting to get wet with FSX. Well, this and other pay ware prog's have caused me to wip...

Mel, What was the nature of the problem you ran into? Virus? System crash? I'm sorry for any troubles to your system related to this aircraft. I've never known you to so quickly refuse a great aircraft. I'm mystified at the nature of the problem. I downloaded this aircraft from: http://www.rikoooo.c...

GOOGLE: FSX Basler BT-67 Base Pack V2 "The BT-67 is a general-purpose turbo-prop conversion of the classic Douglas DC-3/C-47. Replacing the original base pack, V2 has a new panel layout, some new gauges, and new flight dynamics. Three models and paints are included: ski- equipped "Polar 5" of the Al...

Another day, another problem. Good to still have a forum to post to :D I've been experiencing some Pitch Trim problems for quite some time now in almost all aircraft. FYI: I have all Aircraft Realism Settings maxed out to 100%. Always. Whilst preparing my aircraft and instruments for takeoff, I gene...

Is there any way to locate your aircraft to a particular set of map coordinates? How to do it?

Bruce

Thank you Mel

Mel, Yes, now that you mention it, I do remember Cat's work on this subject. I may even have been one of those who posted, seeking help. To be honest, the whole *beep* thing seemed too complicated for me at the time and I'm sure that I probably threw up my hands in despair/disgust over my inability ...

Hello! My name is Bruce *beep*. I am a long time, upstanding, senior member of of the SurClaro Forums. I am looking for a partner or collaborator who is well versed in air navigation and more particularly with the operation and use of the GPS navigation system in FSX. The functions of the GPS system...

Hey guy's. I thought it might be fun to report what I've been doing over the past couple of weeks or. Nothing much to report in my personal life. But I have been having a bit of fun with a couple of FSX addon aircraft over the last week or two, and thought you might also be interested in. That is if...

TX, RD I've been Googling and searching but to no avial in the freeware department. If I only had the knowledge (which I definitely don't #-o , I would design the *beep* thing myself! BTW, I'm sorry to hear about Garry's misfortune. [-o< Is he totally out of commission? What's the *beep*? What about...

TX Mel, RD was the real mastermind behind creating and disbursing the individual "Maddie Flights". Some of them had a real "WOW! factor. But I cant really recall any multiple "failures" occurring: it was a long time ago, and it was completely out of my bounds at the time. But, it's a good place to s...

I'm having problems with getting FSX "Failures" to behave the way I want it to. I would like to know if you guy's have ever mastered this component of FSX? My problem is that I can't set up a cascade of "failures" to occur one after another that would eventually lead up to a major cockpit crisis. In...

Got it figured out, Mel. I just needed to tick the Show Hidden Files, Folders. Everything should be fine now. Thanks for the help, dude

I'm having trouble locating FSX.CFG in my new Windows 7 files. I want to make some edits to take away most, if not all troublesome screen messages so that I can make better movies and screenshots. Even after following Mel's updated pathway (Thank you Mel!), The pathway you provided is not working fo...

Darts, foaming tankards, probably the occasional sing along! Nothing of the kind ever happens here in the States. Not in the old neighborhood, working man's bars anyway! I can't think of anything I would like better than having a few rounds with you and your new mates and having a chance or two at t...

Here's the plane; and she's a beauty! http://www.simviation.com/1/browse-Vintage-66-7 (5th down from the top) Please, take a look at the VC initial view. All the virtual cockpit aircraft framework parts are horribly disjointed until you raise your viewpoint (Shift+Enter) five, six or more times (to ...

Can anyone confirm having any success with using Rwy12 with FSX? According to several online sources, it's supposed to work just fine. But it sure isn't working for me.

Any help or advice gratefully appreciated.

HOW TO ADJUST THE CAMERA PAN RATE Open your FSX folder in Windows Explorer. Scroll down to the Cameras.cfg. Open with Notepad. You can make individual pan rate adjustments to the: Virtual Cockpit Camera, Spot Camera and Locked Spot Cameras. PitchPanRate equals Up and Down Panning HeadingPanRate equa...

Can you post a screen shot or two?

RD I've got the same problem. No yoy on your fix. When I transfered/copied the bmp's you were refererinf to into the Gauges folder,. FSX told me that those files were already installed in the FSX Gauges Folder . I elected to replace the them, but the fix didn't wor5k for me either. I'll delete my fs...

@ Mel. No problem Mel. Perfectly understandable.
@ RD. Thank you RD. Gonna go make the fix right now!
