- STB can utilize whatever version of FSX you have installed. MyTrafficBoard can only use basic FSX RTM irrespective of whatever service pack you have installed so you cannot take advantage of service pack features.

Pre-Requisites
- Operating System

- Windows Vista 64 bit, SP1 or later.
- Microsoft .NET V2

Considerations
- If used on the same computer as Flight Simulator, FS must be run in windowed mode. FS may be used in full screen mode of STB is installed on another networked computer.
- While SuperTrafficBoard is the active window, Flight Simulator temporarily disables sound. This means you may not be able to hear aircraft sounds, ATC voices, etc. until Flight Simulator becomes the active window again. This is a Microsoft “feature” and has been reported to them although since FSX development is frozen a fix is not expected. Workarounds are available; see the user guide for more details.
- Product advertising screenshots show logos for airlines and airports. As logos are typically copyrighted to and trademarks of their owners, they cannot be included with a commercial product such as SuperTrafficBoard. However you may wish to create or collect your own logos and add those to STB. Please click here for recommendations.
