  1. I do regret my inability to navigate a support forum in a way that doesn't offend. I posted in the wrong area; my apology. I'm not a subject matter expert--a freedom I have that enables me to become completely confused about something that I have never experienced or read about--and so terribly awkwardly I communicated that bewilderment. I came for understanding and I certainly got it. The point was made. Again, I apologize. FYI: My settings are those that come with a fresh install of X-Plane 12. I would think this was a good starting point and I was cold and dark with the LR 172 and the environment was non-taxing to the system (unlike LAX). I have loaded my payware GA and a handful of paid scenery a hangar of 172’s that had different avionics and capabilities and I am running at 34 FPS. I had the G5 for years and thought I wore it out! That’s how much I like the product; I purchased the G500 recently--that states my trust and faith in the productS X-Aviation sells. Doesn't it? Period. Payware/freeware does work and occasionally in his or her X-Plane system it won't, and as we all know everything has a bug or two despite the quality process the company may use prior to release. The experts know what is up--the community has those that do not know. On this note it is bizarre a scenery library that I never had an issue with now initiates a pop-up window that it is out of date. So, logic states to verify the library is current; download again (You think: don't trust your backup--it's out of date X-Plane says!) Then only to find out the same pop up occurs. so, Logically all the possibilities and weed thru the improbable. How do I KNOW an X Plane update MAY HAVE caused the issue? How do I know the pop-up is correct? How do I know the scenery library IS, in fact, up-to-date with the current X Plane? Go where? Why do we have to weed thru X Plane 9,10, 11 info when we searched for "XP12" info? Life is full of question for those like me that are well, much less …. Something was occurring and I didn’t and don't understand--it is so bizarre to me. After a couple weeks of issues and 'fresh installs' and a lessening inability to interpret the Log.txt I came for assistance AFTER I deleted that fresh install and all documents. It was an incorrect presumption that I had the Log.txt. and didn’t include it. Why would I make it harder for X-Aviation? For you? Anyone? A company’s support is not unlike an EMERGENCY ROOM, most often clarity is lacking and emotions are frayed. People are not at their best. Empathy for our fellow Man? Yes, as stupidly as I communicate and ignorant as it seems I am--yes, I am aware a Log. txt. is generated ... Thanks for the response; I won't bother your company further with my perceived stupidity. Just disappointed I couldn't communicate ‘more better’: to edify and enlighten; perhaps to grow your business and X-Plane and the community and ___________________. ( I probably forgot something--oh how stupid I am!) With EVERY good wish I am, And remain A lesser member of the X-Plane Community P.S. The instruments are not currently loaded, and regardless, this communique has no influence on whether or not I reload them. I am not ready or willing to take the time to manipulate the system so soon after it's running again and adding anything is with much reluctance.
  2. It's 2025 and X Plane 12 and the G500 and G5 don't seem to be playing together well. I purchased the G500 a few months ago and had been using the G5 for years. Installing the G500,with only the X-Aviation 172 using the G500, I noticed my frame rate dropped significantly (the G5 was already installed) and then I couldn't keep X Plane running -- CTD (Crashing To Desktop). No, I don't have any Log.txt as a system that was CTD is devastating and and had been down another company's help path where their advise was only to do a fresh install then only put plugins that I 'need' into X-Plane. Errors in the pop-up windows were: G500 plug in, laminar Research 172 using wrong sound mod and a few other FMOD errors attributed to freeware aircraft. Somewhat bizarre. With a fresh install and no third-party anything--the G5 dropped me from near 50fps to 35fps, give or take. Adding the G500, my frame rate dropped to to just above 20fps; and I completed the same procedure on two different drives. After many attempts to identify the issue(s) with their process, I gave up. Without the G5 or G500 installed I am operating without issue at 50FPS. Things do happen and normally they're fixed. Did X-Plane update itself away from the G500 and G5? Did I fail to install properly? Pay ware should work, period. I believe everyone would agree. I will greatly appreciate your support and advise.

  4. Thanks! In the nine months I have had X Plane 11, the learning curve is much too steep! Thanks for being there, and yes, it took me about two weeks to clear up some issues with other realistic gauges not integrating properly and X plane not letting me load a dark paneled mod to the 172--and it has been working for weeks. Realism requires complexity, I accept that, but this is the plug and play generation and the 21st Century. (Note: I deleted that aircraft. Spending too much time with the game instead of flying to remain proficient and learn some new things.) Again, very nice equipment and integration and thanks for the support! RB
  5. Would someone please provide some guidance on operating the G5. Great integration into X Plane, thanks. I looked in the folder for an operational manual, but didn't find one. I can select between the AI and the DG/HSI but can't change things: e.g., baro/ altitude. I just installed the G5 and found, in this forum how to get it to pop up, but.... What am I missing? Again, thanks for this equipment. I purchased XPlane for realism, and it is close. I enhanced some scenery for VFR flying, and it is close. I purchase some other realistic gauges and they are close to the real thing. Now with the G5, well, might be as close to realism as this gets. Okay, thanks again for the G5 and I look forward to see what I missed!
