• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Just found out you can modify them using text editor! Came in handy when for some unGodly reason my small Ga planes were making splash sounds when landing on runways. Edited the fx_tchdwn_s.fx file and :pop4: back to tires hitting good old terra firma! Nice suprise!

almost evrything in fsx can be edited exept .mdl files with TXT and other! Welcome to the FSX club mate sounds to me like you just upgraded!
 
No. Had a computer crash from a virus infections, maybe swine virus, and had to completely reformat and reinstall XP Pro. Fun! But did weed out unwanted things in the process and gained a few fps by installing FSX on a HD all by its self.

That sounds exactly like me last weekend (minus the virus though...mine was just locking up games and the internet after about 20 minutes). I too put FSX on it's own drive this time and it seems to be running much better now....mind you the latest nVidia beta drivers seem to be helping too. Like you it also gave me a chance to weed out the chaff that I never fly anymore and to start fresh with a new gauge and effects folder (my effects folder was full of light stuff that mostly never got used as I put 3D lights on almost everything).
