Title: Fairbanks
Post by: xxd09 on November 25, 2017, 04:57:40 PM
Hi All
Noticed a simmer putting some of his Aerosoft airports into P3Dv4.1 on an Orbyx Board.
They seemed to work
Thought I would try Aerosoft Fairbanks which I have in FSX and P3D3.4
Seems to work OK in P3Dv4.1
Now if I can only get the BWEP Fairbanks  A1 floatplanes to work!-only joking
Appreciate all the work you guys do-my Tongass A1 planes work a treat !
Onwards and upwards

Wrong time of the year for the floats at Fairbanks.  Use skis...

Hi dexthon
How true
I fly in the” summer “to cheer myself up in the actual winter!
Also unchecking the frozen water box in Orbyx Global Vector stops Black water effect in my setup
Tedious to keep changing this as it is deep in the Orbyx works!
Anyway round this?

I have an Icon for Vector on my desktop.  No problem to uncheck that box in the Vector Control Panel.
Do you use the Aerosoft Fairbanks?  That has seasonal features also.

Hi dexthon
How do you do that?
Tried the usual ways but no Orbyx Vecctor Configurator icon  allowed.
Where did you go to get it?
Re Fairbanks-on my way there as we speak!
Only saw a traffic icon/configurator in the Fairbanks folders -am I missing something?

Do you have Orbx Vector installed??  If so, go to Orbx\FTX Vector\FTX GLOBAL VECTOR Configuration Tool.exe and make a shortcut on your desktop.

Glad it's working for you... A long time ago I lived in Fairbanks (Eielson AFB) for three years.
