Are you using the right email? I'd recommend sending a ticket to support. They can help you better with the activation issue.

Do you have a star and runway selected for your destination. VNAV also doesn't go on right after takeoff.

Thank you for the explaination frank. Yea I wasn't trying to compare the texture of the cloud itself, I was just wondering about the placement and the altitudes that these clouds go in the sim. And yea, those fine lines of performance and quality. A tug and war battle. I see you mentioned the metar doesn't give good insight to for which one is correct for a given location. For the future, is it possible for have RWC and skymaxx shape the type of cumulonimbus clouds that usually occur in those areas? Or is that not possible and not within the limits? I may have a feeling that could result in even a worse representation of realism, but I don't know. This is just a question I was curious about. I look forward to seeing what the future holds for skymaxx and RWC. And for better gpu's

I also too have the sound problem destinate is having.

Ah that makes sense. thank you. For flying with vatsim, what should the pilot not flying's callsign should be?

Thanks, I'll check it when I get home.

Can you post your Gizmo and x plane log files.

After giving your passengers some nice aerobatics, they'll be down on the ground. May not be happy though

What do you mean by PNF plane. Thanks.

Would running different os', Windows 7 on one and windows 10 on the other, be a cause for stuttering.

Ahh that makes sense nils. Yea, this missing texture doesn't bother me at all since i never go behind the yoke. Just thought I'd report it

Thanks Jan. And yea, I understand you guys can't fix these in hotfixes. Hotfixes can only do fixes related to gizmo. (The texturing is obviously not )

I guess you're right, I should choose my words better. I'll explain it better then. From what I've seen on facebook, to people who I've talked to in person, and on the forum, people do have a problem with this. Now, I could be way wrong about how many people find an issue with this haha. But to make x-plane 10 more realistic, a mature cumulonimbus cloud that has an active thunderstorm brewing underneath it, should rise to an altitude of over 15 000ft at least. (And based on the cloud shape in skymaxx, it does look like you are representing a mature cumulonimbus cloud)

Hello, While I was fooling around the cockpit, I found this missing texture on the yoke checklist. If this is a repeated post, please delete. It's behind the checklist board and it's on both the capitain and copilots yoke. There's also a weird texture issue with the trim knob on the yoke Behind: Front: This is probably really far down the list for fixing, but decided to report anyway.

Thank you for the response. I understand that performance is key in this scenerio. I do have another thing that most of the community has been criticizing. As you can see above, there is a cell that is creating a local thunderstorm. The problem most of us have is that it doesn't represent a thunderstorm. The shape is well done. Wide-ish base, and then towering to spread out at the top, but these are out of place. The base of a thunderstorm is not supposed to be 100 feet above the ground most of the time. and the top of a thunderstorm is not supposed to be only about 8000ft. Like i said, the shape is perfect, but the placing is wrong. Is it possible for the base to start higher up and the top to be over 15000 ft. It would make flying at cruise more realisitc as we can see that we are approaching a thunderstorm and would need to divert around it. Thank you for taking your time, and I'm only sending a lot of these posts to help improve skymaxx. Thanks, Chris

Don't worry about it now. It doesn't affect anything.

Ah yes you're right. Jan's tutorial does have exec after filling out the perf page. Maybe Jan can comment on this.

Hmm, I get an exec on my side

Did you fill out the perf page before filling out a route?

You can go direct

I had that problem once, and I figured out it was something to do with my pc. Everytime I closed or open an app with administrator, it would go back to zero. But I havn't had that issue anymore.

Nope. You have to reproduce it in order to have it in the log

Post your gizmo log files and your flight plan

Do you by chance have XPUIPC installed?

Make sure to remove the plugins instead of disabling them.
