Before I take the plunge and move to the latest version, are there any caveats I should know of. I figure it is better to ask first, rather than get grumpy later. ;D

One of my pilots has FSFK and wants to use it with my VA. The guy who created has files for VA's so they can use it, but will I be able to get it to work? http://www.flightkeeper.net/Downloads.html

I see the new version of phpVMS works with FS Flight Keeper. Is there any benefit to using FSFK rather than FSACARS or FSPAX?

I am considering implementing FSFK into phpVMS, but only if there is sufficient interest. It's a paid ACARS program.

Hi everyone, Just throwing a question out there. I have a Nvidia 8800GTS videocard and i also use Nhancer to enhance the graphics. Now, my problem is that when i go out of my plane and look at the taxiway in the distance... i see that the lines on the taxiway and other details are blurry or something like that. i really dont know how to explain. Maybe you can see the video i attach to this post... Its similar to my problem.... Hope someone can tell me what settings i should adjust... Lucas

Hello, i'm wondering about one thing .. example: PILOT001 and PILOT002, they are in the same airline, both are using FSAcars reporting system .. the PILOT.ini file is the same except "PilotNumber=PILOT001" so, if PILOT001 will change his .ini file to "PilotNumber=PILOT002", he will send his report to PILOT002 account .. am i right? I find line "passwd=" and "Password=0" Please give me sollution, how and where to configured their own unique password. Step by step if possible Many thanks.

I get this Idear recently - How about a FSD Server for alle the Pilots and Airlines flying on VA Central? I think it would be fun to see other "real" People around while flying. If a Server is needed the EUV Root has plenty of ressources left:-)

I have FSFK working very nicely, locally. The ACARS gauge is cool. I have my va-template in the correct directory, but need to know what I must do next to get it to work with phpVMS. I've looked at the other threads on fsfk, but haven't quite figured it out. Sorry, I'm having another dumb day.

With the help of my new flights ops director, we have finalised the rework to our fleet. Now though, we need to have the aircraft repainted, and my skills are definitely lacking in this area. So does anyone have any recommendations for people who are offering repaints as a service? Please only recommend if you have used their services personally. Thanks in advance Stuart

Did anyone try out the new AMD driver with Mantle support and FSX? I myself just had to rebuild FSX completely due to a Microsoft update which crashed up my whole AMD driver and in the end rebuilding my computer, so I'm a bit reluctant to try myself..

Hello i have a problem that has been bugging me for a long and while flying on VATSIM. I have been unable to use VOICE on my laptop in FSX. It starting to really bug me now, because its not realistic to use text only and makes it hard for the controller. Basically i can transmit audio but i cannot hear it, this also applies to other programs too not only FSX, lets say i want to skype with someone and watch a YouTube video, nope i cant do that. So to put simply i cannot multitask with audio between two different programs. This is really really starting to annoy me now as i have been deal with this for months and months, please help.

So taking a break from Dreamweaver and decided to give the VHHX scenery a run for its money while fogged in. i noticed though the fog layer is not what fog should look like, yes i know its a game and there is rex to make it look real but my computer is not the best in world but is somewhat decent but flytampa, JF-757-200 and REX just don't get along very well on my graphics card so with that said can anybody recommend me to a fog add on that would replace the fsx hase if so that would be great.

Hi all, I'm having some problems. I'm trying to create a repaint for a virtual airline. I'm using Photoshop CS6 to create the repaint, I've been following youtube videos on how to repaint aircrafts. I seem to be doing really well, Creating textures, converting to DDS, creating the correct files on fsx. The problem starts when opening the repainted aircraft in fsx. Take a look at the attached images to see what the problem is. Any ideas on what is wrong, please contact me. Thanks.

Hi Folks, I was just wondering how many of you are using the live fuel pricing? If you are using it, how do you find it is working out? To date, I have been using a generic fuel price but would like to move to the live pricing. I just was wondering if it seems to be going alright at this point or what is there that I need to watch out for. Thanks, Chuck CYXU

I'm using live fuel prices and all I can say is "ouch". As of the time of this posting my VA has 79 flights recorded with over $3,000,000.00 spent in fuel! Thank goodness I have plenty of "virtual passengers" flying with us or I'd go bankrupt. Sorry, just had to post this little bit of silliness. Keith

So...airnav won't budge, despite the fact that they don't have an AUP in place, and claim that I'm spidering. Lame. Anyone know of any other resources to get fuel prices? I could do a 'community database', but not sure how much good that would do, since there's alot of manual investment. Maybe something that collects averages from vaCentral?

Hello, When I receive a pirep from my pilots, the system don't do the good calculation for the fuel used. (See image) I have in my local config file the fuel in Kg. Look in image the flight details, 5.1€ unit, I suppose that this is for Kg. The fuel cost is more than the gross revenue... Can someone help me? Thanks, Alex

Hey guys, I've just dropped phpVMS onto my webserver after having a few issues with vabase! :- It seems this software is much more robust and has a much nicer cleaner feel to it... so I'm impressed LOL I need some advice/assistance on modding the system to cater more for a new VA project im working on. I want to be able to achieve the following things: 1. Switch the emphesis from Civillian to Military Flying, things like Hubs becoming Stations/Bases for instance. This seems easy enough on a basic level but im not sure how far into the system i need to go to ensure all references are changed. 2. I want to disable all finances options as they really have no bearing o…
