License: ======== * You are hereby licensed to use this software with all functions for evaluation purposes without charge for 20 Flight Simulator sessions. After this time, the program works as freeware with limited functionality. A registration fee is required for continued full use. * The paid license key is valid for all FSTramp versions starting with version 6.0. The validity of the key is limited in time, starting from the delivery date. The license key can be used with one or more computers of the buyer (even simultaneously). The Key is unique and linked to the owner. System requirements: ==================== * Windows Vista with SP2 and Platform Update or newer Windows versions. * Laminar Research X-Plane 11 for Windows (at least version 11.20) Lockheed Martin Prepar3D v2, v3, v4. Microsoft FSX Steam Edition. When "Preview DirectX 10" is activated, the full-screen mode is impossible. Microsoft FSX with service pack 1 + 2 or with Acceleration Expansion Pack. When "Preview DirectX 10" is activated, the full-screen mode is impossible. * FSTramp needs no internet connection. * FSTramp - can be uninstalled automatically. - does not modify any Flight Simulator settings. - X-Plane: adds the file "X-Plane #\Resources\plugins\FSTrampXP.xpl" - adds the folders: C:\Program Files (x86)\FSTramp (configurable during first setup) C:\ProgramData\FSTramp C:\ProgramData\FSTramp for [FSX|FSX-SE|P3D v#|XP v#] C:\Users\YOU\AppData\Roaming\FSTramp for [FSX|FSX-SE|P3D v#|XP v#] Installation and first Steps: ============================= * If you have a previous version of FSTramp, don't uninstall this! This way you don't need to enter the license key again. * FSTramp must be installed with the privileges of the administrator. This guarantees the correct installation of additional system components such as VC runtime libraries and SimConnect.dll. * The destination path "C:\Program Files (x86)\FSTramp" is optimal but any other installation path is possible. * When installation is complete, you must create the scenery data base. This is done with the app "FSTramp Scenery Assembler" for each installed Simulator version separately. The first time this will take a few minutes. After installation of new add-on scenery or AIRAC cycle the database should be updated; this generally will only take seconds. * After installation, and building the scenery database, start the Simulator, load a Flight and activate FSTramp from the Plugins/Add-ons menu or with the default Hotkey Ctrl+F12. Test the other important key Shift+Ctrl+F12. All hotkeys can be configured within FSTramp in the Settings dialog box. * Flight Simulator X will ask you if FSTramp.dll can be used and trusted. Accept with "Yes". * If the menu Plugins/Add-ons with the entry FSTramp does not appear in simulator, stop the simulator and start again the app FSTramp Scenery Assembler. This app restores the connection Simulator - FSTramp. * NVIDIA: If the frame rate of the simulator drops sharply about 20 seconds after FSTramp's visibility, the power management of the GPU slows down prematurely. In the NVIDIA Control Panel, change the 'Manage 3D settings - Power management mode' option to 'Adaptive'. Basic properties: ================= * FSTramp has been developed as a module of Flight Simulator. It is not an independent program. Within Flight Simulator you can toggle between the Flight Simulator windows and those of FSTramp. * FSTramp is a navigation chart, flight planner, autopilot and FMS all in one. * All important navigation objects, with the exception of waypoints, airways, airport procedures and airspace data, are derived from the Flight Simulator scenery files, and shown on a map of the world.
