Thanks Joe, appreciate that... John

But, that's the problem. I purchased the "DVD" online and it was physically mailed to me, but I do not remember where I purchased it and have no backup info on it because my old hard drive with the info died. I keep bu info of everything I purchase on the pc, but lost all the older info because of the loss of the hard drive. John wtr49p

Hi Guys, I have a problem. I purchased REX2 when it first came out. I was using a different pc at the time when the hard drive went out. So I built a new one, was time to update anyway. So, I had the DVD for REX2 and installed it. Now the update has come out and I do not have the info from my purchase as the hard drive crashed. I do not remember anymore where I purchased it from, (old age I guess, lol)... Does any one have an idea how I might be able to approach REX to ask them about this? John wtr49p

Ya, I've been doing some stuff like that and writing my name on the panels, just messing around and learning a little about it. It's a cool app. John wtr49p

Hi John. Thanks for the info on paint.net. Works great. Going to have a lot of fun with this, wish I'd have known about it along time ago. John wtr49p

Thanks John, I'll try that. John wtr49p

I've never done anything like that. Do you have to have a special program to work on the bitmaps? John wtr49p

I love this plane, always have, but just do be different. (ohoh)... I love to look at nice scenery and I only like to fly aircraft in which I like the panel looks and layout. Which are too many to name. The one thing I personally do not care for is the roughing up the panel to look used and worn. I want to get into a plane that has just come off the assembly line or close to it and enjoy the beauty of the whole package. Now look at the wonderful paints of this craft. There gorgeous. Then go inside and see the completely worn out panel. It doesn't go together. I don't like that, which

Well, there you have it in a nutshell Brett. John hit it on the head. One of the things I miss in FSC from FSN is that part of just being able to put your mouse on a VOR or NDB and get all the info about it, including how far away it was and how far the signal traveled, which was very useful in planning and tracking with radio sytems alone when flying. I really miss that. I enjoyed being able to make plans and include cross references of different VOR's and NDB's as to where I should be watching for a degree heading to know exactly where I was without watching the map. I guess I still lik

Maybe John could explain it better than I can. John wtr49p

That makes sense John, about the accident. Because I could never understand why someone wouldn't carry over a program like FSN from FS9 to FSX. Being the wonder of it all. Out of all other programs I have had, FSN was to me the best. I missed that the most. FSC (Flight Sim Commander), is a good program also, but I'd take FSN hands down if I could. Plan G is also very good. Hi Brett, if you haven't ever used FSN, it's kind of hard to explain it's usefullness and likeability. Don't know if I spelled that right, LOL... May John could explain it better than I can. John wtr49p

I'm very disappointed not getting a reply from the author of FSTramp about what they may do in the future about an update to adding flight planning. I have talked to quite a few people and they all feel the same. They will not purchase for that reason alone. It's such a shame that they would come back with such a beloved program and not include flight planning. It's beyond my understanding why they would do this. Oh well, guess I'll stick to FSC and Plan G. John wtr49p

Give a look at this page and try the tweaks and the tweaking tool. It worked for me. No more OOM, no more ctd's. http://janvaane.org/virtualfsx/?p=113 Good luck

I agree, the flight plan was the seal a deal for me also. I loved FSNav in FS9. I use FSC now, but it's just not the same. I think I tried the auto pilot in FSNav one or two times, but it was being able to make very good flight plans for extensive radio nav work that I enjoyed the most. I just wrote the author letting him know that no flight plans would be the thing that keeps me from purchasing and asking if there might be an udate in the near future for it. here's hoping, wtr49p
