Tire Blow Outs

[Izzydee84]

I am having a very frustrating problem. I have tried doing an ILS landing at different speeds. Everything goes well until the wheels touch down. I
have tried at speeds of 125-140. Anything more than that and it becomes unrealistic. The craft flares, but the program causes, or interprets the
landing as a rough one. I love FsPassengers! It's a unique program and there's nothing out on the market like it. But, if the program is not
compatible with Windows 7, or if there are upgrades needed to keep it current with changing technology, then the program should be updated. I just bought this and I am ready to quit on this!

I feel like I wasted my money. I would like to see this problem resolved somehow. My persistence at the moment is motivated by the fact
that the program does enhance the flying experience. But, if I'm not going to enjoy the fruits of my labor, then what's the sense. I can't make
money to maintain the company I created, I keep getting penalized and in order to keep the company from going under, I have to sell every aircraft I have. I'm on a downward spiral here. This has been going on since three months ago when I purchased the program. I've tried everything I know to do. Does anyone have a viable, definite solution to this problem?

The dreaded blown tire issue...there are multiple threads about this. All you have to do is search "blown tires" and you will find them. You never
mentioned what your vertical speeds have been...only indicated airspeed. Vertical speed is the key. In over 400+ flights with FsPX, I have had only 3
blown tires on landing. Not only that, I use Win 7 and have never had an issue with the program not functioning correctly. I may be one of the lucky few.

Did you check the moreoptions.cfg within the FsPX folder to see if there is a way to disable this function?

As far as updating the program, don't hold your breath for that to happen.

I noticed you posted here about this same subject:

So, why didn't you continue the conversation there?

Hi Joeflyer:

I originally posted the same topic at the other location when I noticed that the thread had been resolved and figured it would not show as a new post.
So, I started a new one here. I resolved the issue by deleting and reinstalling the software. Previous to that, I took someone's advise on the
other thread and tried to change the tire blowout value from 37 to -1 as recommended, but that didn't work either. So, when I deleted and
reinstalled, the problem stopped.
