Shared Cockpits will now function in mutiplayer between users running Accleration and SP2 (without Acceleration)

Flight1 has released a FIX for older FS9 aircraft in SP2/Accleration that have VC rain issues and cause the glass to wash out to blue or other colors.

Quote:


Run the tool and it will fix the VC rain and cockpit windows for FS9 aircraft


http://www.flight1software.com/fsxtools/f1_fsx_vcrainfix.exe


It back up your original files and will allow a restore

You now have your windows clear and working

NOTE: THIS FIX DOES NOT MAKE FSX-FS9 AIRCRAFT HAVE VC RAIN FX, ONLY FIX THE WINDSHIELD PROBLEM. DO NOT RUN THIS TOOL IF YOU WANT TO RESTORE VC RAIN FX TO FS9 AIRCRAFT

If you want VC RAIN to work in FS9 aircraft that have the ability, do not run this tool, instead download the add-on vcrain.zip, rlvcrain.zip which contain modified and the orignal backup vc rain textures for FS9 and work in FSX. Install the FS9 default textures and your VC rain will return to FS9 planes

The new SP2 SDK is now LIVE


http://download.microsoft.com/download/3/C/A/3CAD9417-A0BE-4892-9224-4A4479F9F63...


NOTE: IF YOU WANT ACCELERATION -AND- SP2 SDK SUPPORT YOU MUST INSTALL THIS FILE BUT DO NOT INSTALL THE SDK FROM THE ACCELERATION DISK

Examples:

If you want SDK support for Acceleration only, use the SDK from the install CD

If you want suppot for BOTH SP2 and Acceleration you MUST SKIP the Acceleration SDK install from the CD, make sure SP1a SDK is installed, THEN run the new SP2 SDK installer posted above

If you already installed the Acceleration SDK and you want the upgraded dual support, you must UNINSTALL the Acceleration SDK and install the file above over SDK  SP1a




UPDATE:

Phil Taylor has confirmed the FSinsider Website is generic in its instructions

Quote:


So therefore my original instructions above are indeed correct. If you wish to have the SDK installed which targets BOTH Acceleration and SP2, you must uninstall the Acceleration SDK, leaving SP1a in the system and then install the SP2 SDK just released.

No. If memory serves, Acceleration should detect SP2 and uninstall it automatically before installing the SP2 included with Acceleration

in any case, it should not be a problem however one of the reasons that list was posted is because people who had SP1/SP2 installed and then installed Acceleration were finding performance issues.. why was never discovered, so the lists were posted for those who wished to clean install.


I would go ahead and install it and if you find problems and issues with performace, you may need to consider the same direction as the lists. But do make sure to defrag before making any assesments

Mesh is up to you and the developer who desinged it. It can be installed elsewhere and accessed by the scenery library. I do however install FSGenesis 10m mesh into FSX

As for support programs.. REX is not on the market and I have no idea how it works so i can not advise on that. FEX and GEX however are only database programs that send textures and files to FSX so they should go somewhere other than the FSX drive to conserve space

Good job..

Hi,

You used RTM, sim and SDK in your description.

Can you please tell me what that means..... sorry if the question may look retarded but I just want to make sure I understand.... Thanks

Thank you for the clarification!

What about sim? does it stand for simulator?

Cheers

Hi guys,

I did follow the install as you described it. The install was ok.
I did update my DirectX and C++.
I have a problem
I get flashing screen when I am trying to open the controls for lights, engine, gps, etc.
This is my system:
AMD Athlon 64 X2 Dual Core Processor 4400+ 2.30 GHz
RAM 2.00 GB
BFG GeForce 7600GS 256mb OC PCI-Express Video Card

Any sugestions???

Thanks,

Hey thank you so much!

You guys are awesome! I really appreciate your help with this. It is working perfectly now 

no clue other than the fact that acceleration does install a few different files than the stand alone SP2 and it also installs a PILE of addon which requires more attention to defrag maintenance

Perhaps your old hardware does not like them

There are several different way FSX installs.

RTM (Main DVD)
SP1
SP2
or
Acceleration

When you enter add and remove programs, click the box "SHOW UPDATES"

That will EXPAND the install and show you the updates.

You can then check to see if there is a button to remove the updates or not. If there is, then reverse the process and uninstall clean starting with the SP being shown and continue till all updates and the main program is removed.

If there is no "uninstall" button available for the update and the only one available is for the main FSX install, then use it instead which will remove everything at once. But as I posted above there can be differences because of the different SP's involved. I know with Acceleration its a ONE SHOT uninstall of everything but with the service packs and without Accel you would be wise to check and do it as I listed above removing the SP's first.


There is no limit to installing FSX on the same machine. and if you were ever queried for a new install code then you simply call and get one

FSX will work with 32 bit and 64 bit Win 7. I don't have Windows 7 but here is a more recent thread that might help you.

Somebody should delete those spam messages above... :/

ZAP!  Done.

After reading several of the posts i see that it would be advantageous to install FSX on another drive. My question is would it be necessary to uninstall FSX from the c drive before installing on the other drive. I have read all of the procedures and have a vacant drive for it.

DentProof wrote on Sep 5^th, 2011 at 1:21pm:

There are three types of FSX, Pro, Deluxe, and Gold which includes acceleration. The Acceleration pack has some aircraft, missions, and functions not in the the others.

Good tutorial

You can painlessly update with the Acceleration disk

I also bought the standard edition and was disappointed that the Acceleration expansion was needed to get the FA-18

PsychoDiablo wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 5:21pm:


Yes

CHUCK79 wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 5:29pm:

Are you sure about that? Does Acceleration include the extra aircraft featured in FSX Deluxe? What about the SDKs?

PS. The F/A-18 is part of Acceleration & not included with FSX Deluxe.  I suspect you could get a copy of FSX Gold edition cheaper than the Acceleration package. http://astore.amazon.com/simviation00-20/detail/B001DPZE84

Not the way I read it.

Quote:

OK, I missed that.

I still think FSX Gold would be would be a better option & probably cheaper.

CHUCK79 wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 6:08pm:

Not really. It still implies that the F/A-18 is included with FSX Deluxe which it isn't.

Quote:

OK, I accept that - providing Acceleration is still available.

CHUCK79 wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 6:15pm:

I'll read it as many times as you like Chuck. It still reads the same.

Quote:


By mentioning the Standard  Edition you implied that the F/A-18 is included with Deluxe.

Never mind, this is a silly argument & not helping anyone.

andy190 wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 7:17pm:



After all this I went and dug out my FSX box and it is actually the Deluxe version
I was under the impression that I started with FSX Standard and added Acceleration. But in actaulity I had Deluxe to begin with and then added Acceleration.

So, in fact, I do not know what I'm talking about. Please disregard my ramblings

CHUCK79 wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 7:44pm:

Everyone makes mistakes. Thanks to Andy for clearing this up. I knew something didn't seem right. Glad I poked my nose in now.

PsychoDiablo wrote on Oct 5^th, 2012 at 8:28pm:

Yes, that's what I would do. If you hunt around I'm sure you can pick up FSX Gold for a reasonable price.

Practical Explanation ( For Example ) :- `1st of all can you tell me every single seconds detail from that time when you born ?? ( i need every seconds detail ?? that what- what you have thought and done on every single second )

can you tell me every single detail of your `1 cheapest Minute Or your whole hour, day, week, month, year or your whole life ??

if you are not able to tell me about this life then what proof do you have that you didn't forget your past ? and that you will not forget this present life in the future ?

that is Fact that Supreme Lord Krishna exists but we posses no such intelligence to understand him.
there is also next life. and i already proved you that no scientist, no politician, no so-called intelligent man in this world is able to understand this Truth. cuz they are imagining. and you cannot imagine what is god, who is god, what is after life etc.
_______
for example :Your father existed before your birth. you cannot say that before your birth your father don,t exists.

So you have to ask from mother, "Who is my father?" And if she says, "This gentleman is your father," then it is all right. It is easy.
Otherwise, if you makes research, "Who is my father?" go on searching for life; you'll never find your father.

( now maybe...maybe you will say that i will search my father from D.N.A, or i will prove it by photo's, or many other thing's which i will get from my mother and prove it that who is my Real father.{ So you have to believe the authority. who is that authority ? she is your mother. you cannot claim of any photo's, D.N.A or many other things without authority ( or ur mother ).

if you will show D.N.A, photo's, and many other proofs from other women then your mother. then what is use of those proofs ??} )

same you have to follow real authority. "Whatever You have spoken, I accept it," Then there is no difficulty. And You are accepted by Devala, Narada, Vyasa, and You are speaking Yourself, and later on, all the acaryas have accepted. Then I'll follow.
I'll have to follow great personalities. The same reason mother says, this gentleman is my father. That's all. Finish business. Where is the necessity of making research? All authorities accept Krsna, the Supreme Personality of Godhead. You accept it; then your searching after God is finished.

Why should you waste your time?
_______
all that is you need is to hear from authority ( same like mother ). and i heard this truth from authority " Srila Prabhupada " he is my spiritual master.
im not talking these all things from my own.
___________

in this world no `1 can be Peace full. this is all along Fact.

cuz we all are suffering in this world 4 Problems which are Disease, Old age, Death, and Birth after Birth.

tell me are you really happy ?? you can,t be happy if you will ignore these 4 main problem. then still you will be Forced by Nature.
___________________

if you really want to be happy then follow these 6 Things which are No illicit sex, No gambling, No drugs ( No tea & coffee ), No meat-eating ( No onion & garlic's )

5th thing is whatever you eat `1st offer it to Supreme Lord Krishna. ( if you know it what is Guru parama-para then offer them food not direct Supreme Lord Krishna )

and 6th " Main Thing " is you have to Chant " hare krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare ".
_______________________________
If your not able to follow these 4 things no illicit sex, no gambling, no drugs, no meat-eating then don,t worry but chanting of this holy name ( Hare Krishna Maha-Mantra ) is very-very and very important.

Chant " hare krishna hare krishna krishna krishna hare hare hare rama hare rama rama rama hare hare " and be happy.

if you still don,t believe on me then chant any other name for 5 Min's and chant this holy name for 5 Min's and you will see effect. i promise you it works And chanting at least 16 rounds ( each round of 108 beads ) of the Hare Krishna maha-mantra daily.
____________
Here is no Question of Holy Books quotes, Personal Experiences, Faith or Belief. i accept that Sometimes Faith is also Blind. Here is already Practical explanation which already proved that every`1 else in this world is nothing more then Busy Foolish and totally idiot.
_________________________
Source(s):
every `1 is already Blind in this world and if you will follow another Blind then you both will fall in hole. so try to follow that person who have Spiritual Eyes who can Guide you on Actual Right Path. ( my Authority & Guide is my Spiritual Master " Srila Prabhupada " )

if you want to see Actual Purpose of human life then see this link : ( w w w ( dot ) asitis ( dot ) com {Bookmark it })

( i promise only readers of this book that they { he/she } will get every single answer which they want to know about why im in this material world, who im, what will happen after this life, what is best thing which will make Human Life Perfect, and what is perfection of Human Life. ) purpose of human life is not to live like animal cuz every`1 at present time doing 4 thing which are sleeping, eating, sex & fear. purpose of human life is to become freed from Birth after birth, Old Age, Disease, and Death.
