One of the best features I discovered yesterday is the kneeboard and how I can write on it and import text in to the .txt files. This is exactly what I was looking for because I have bits of paper all over the place. I tried increasing the number of kneeboards by adding additional kneeboard.txt files in to the same folder but they don't appear so I was wondering is there another config file I could edit to make it recognise the extra kneeboard files I add? I added kneeboard5.txt and kneeboard6.txt.
I used to use FSPassengers a lot but haven't loaded up FS9 for a long time. Just started getting back in to it and want to unlock FSPassengers so I can start plotting routes out from other airports. I would get FSX but I use SSTSIM Concorde which is only compatible on FS9 and I have the demo installed so I just need to purchase the unlock key.
Should I still go through the process of downloading it or can I just get the unlock key? It's no biggie to download as it's only 27Mb but I'm not sure if it will download it fully unlocked or download the demo and also provide the unlock key. I've noticed a few threads (not many but a handful) of users having problems with their install becoming blocked requiring a manual unblock so I would like to purchase it in a way that reduces or eliminates the risk of that happening.
I have two airlines flying with FSPax. One was right up at 100% satisfaction until today when I had to make a belly landing and my rating dropped down to a little below 95%. The other I set up specifically to have lots of failures, but it's now on the verge of bankruptcy.
mcdonnell douglas dc 10 collection, Fs Passenger doesn't work well with that aircraft,
in fact very un-realistic, Almost impossible to land the plane with out it blowing a tire
or saying your landed off the runway when you didn't, LMAO
i landed and then check out the review on the flight details..
It said i lost points for landing off the runway, and also damage landing gear,
then also it said good landing lmao
FS passenger doesn't know weather it's a good landing or not with the DC 10..
the author of this fs passenger should get that DC 10 add on and then try it
on his system then fix this..
fist off i'm actually a pilot,, been one for over 22 years, started as a private pilot
then got my commercial back in 1995, flew smalls charters for 5 years
in a Lear Jet 45, then flew for Fedex for 10 years, and yes
i have flown the mcdonnell douglas dc 10 cargo version, NOT passengers.
any way the landing on that aircraft can take a harder landing
more so then any other, example 737, 747,MD80 The DC 10 is a tank and
Can take a huge hit to the landing gear, because it actually does
specially when landing with a full load.
in FsX the way i landed the dc 10 the tires would never have blow not even close.. LOL
just to let the author of fspassenger know, the way he has it set is totally un-realistic not even close..
believe it or not the landing gear and tires can take a full dead drop from the DC10
falling strait down at 40 feet at landing speed no problem..
How ever no pilot lands it like that ever but it can take that kind of a hit,
i can tell you first hand because once i was 40 feet above the runway
when i hit wake turbulence and came to a full drop from 40 feet, and the tires was fine
not even 1 single damage to either the tires or landing gear..
if you ever really took a look at the landing gear and tires up close in real life on the DC 10
you would know why it can take that kind of punishment..
The Mcdonnell Douglas DC 10, is a TANK!!!!
Oh by the way here is footage of hard landing, landed so hard it bounced, tires was fine tho gee would you look at that.
Last night I had to reinstall fsx all my airport buidlings disappeared after installing a traffic application. Today I reinstalled fspassengers but it says my activation key is blocked. I've emailed off a screenshot of the purchase with the details. Any ideas on why it would be blocked or how long it takes to reclaim the code?
I've purchased and have been using FSP without any problems for a bunch of flights, when suddendly problems started happening.
At first, FSX crashed mid-flight and would not start anymore, with an error message saying Flight simulator has detected a problem with a third party software program (add-on): Name: fspassengersx versio. ... file: FsPassengersx.dll" or so.
I tried many ways of fixing, reinstalling, cleaning registry, updating drivers, editing the registry flag part (there was nothing to delete there) and nothing helped until I came across to the steps descriped here: (although it was for another addon, the renaming of the fspassengersx.DLL helped this problem)
After unblocking FSP with a new code I got from Dan (As my old one was blocked after the reinstall), I started a new flight and a NEW problem occured:
"Unable to create the FsPassengers's mini report"
So it theoretically works but frustrating to have such a handy feature not working! I tried the suggested method of //commenting out but no help. Im using vanilla Grand Caravan, this was working fine before.
None of the aircraft work with the minireport either.
A strange thing: when I click edit the panels it does not always open the config file, and randomly it opens the wrong aircraft (not the one im trying to load, so instead of grand caravan the king air comes up sometimes..)
Now the Tech Details:
I am using FSX SE, the game files are up to date.
Windows 10 (64bit)
Other major addons: Ultimate traffic 2, REX HD clouds and textures, DX10 fixer for fsx.
I have...
Update graphics drivers
Tried commenting out gauges as advised
I tried cleaning gauges with FlusiFix06, and reset FSX config file.
uninstalled FSP again
Used CCleaner for registry cleaning,
Reinstalled FSP after reboot
(Same third party error appears, so I did the rename fix as above)
Scanned for malware with AVAST and SpyBot (none)
Prayed to the gods of computers to magically fix the issue

I sure hope there is a way to get back the working state of FSP, its such an awesome addon...
Looking forward to suggestions
Hey all, long-time simmer, short-time FSP user. Purchased FSPX unlock code earlier in July 2018. Downloaded the latest version of FSPX. I was at my mother's house since my internet was down at the time, so everything was saved to a USB stick. Went home, attempted to install FSPX on my *old* Windows XP 64-bit computer, only to have an error message pop up stating that the FSPX installer was not a valid Win-32 application. Downloaded another copy at a friend's house, only to receive the same error message.
Distraught, I dug around online at my friends house, and found an older version (circa 2015) and attempted to install that back at home. Okay, awesome, it works. I input my unlock code. Boom, full version access. Yay!
However, every time I open FSX, I was forced to reenter my unlock code, which I've done numerous times now. Lo and behold, while simming today, I got the dreaded WRONG AUTHORIZATION error on the top of the screen and FSPX dumped my flight.
So now, instead of continuing to be a dummy and dig my grave deeper, I'm asking for help (which should have been done in the first place to avoid this madness). To start, is the latest version of FSPX even compatible with Windows XP or is my OS obselescent and require updating? Two, have I screwed myself out of the legitimate unlock code I purchased from simmarket by using it so many times instead of doing this right the first time? $45 American is hefty for me, and I can't afford to repurchase an unlock code.
Please note that yes, the copy I managed to get to work on my computer is labelled as a CRACK, but the crack is a modded gamedata.bin included in a separate folder which I have not applied. Frown upon me if you must, but I admit this us probably the reason all this trouble came to be. However, I have used only my legitimate unlock code. I have proofs of purchase and receipts to show this legitimacy, and was simply trying to work this out with the extremely limited internet accessibility I had at the time.
Hello.
I have an old FSX with FsP and a new FSX Steam Edition without FsP ,on my pc. How can I install fsp on my new fsxse? During installation I don't have a changing directory option, it automatically choose classic fsx directory (program files/microsoft games/fsx...ect)
