hi, i have 2 afcad problems that i cant figure outat kord there are untextured gray taxiways and runways superimposed on the accurate, textured runways. i'm sure this has something to do with afcads or scenery but even when i get rid of all add-ins the problem persists. if i could just return ohare to its original state i would be happy. - what am i not thinking of?also, i installed a multiple runway afcad for klga, at atc now directs me and other traffic to noexistant runways out in the atlantic, rwy 18,19,53 any thing, i think to do with current wind direction. is there a way to fix this, I do really want the crossing runways both in operation, it gets very crowded …

Hi fellow flight simmers. Happy Holidays. I am constantly having problems with AI traffic clustering up during my flights and causing my system to slow to a crawl. This seems to happen so often that it is causing me to lose my zip for using the simulator. I love FS2004, but I can't take resetting my flight and praying that the next one doesn't have these dreaded clumps of AI planes. Is there anyway to solve this problem. If someone is reading this from microsoft; i want to know if a fix is on the way. This wasn't a problem in FS2002. Thanks in advance for all the help. Oh yeah I am using Ultimate traffic.Thanks.

Dudley HenriquesInternational Fighter Pilots FellowshipCommercial Pilot. CFI RetiredA few words about hammerheads and high torque airplanes;In both the 51 and the Spit, as you go vertical with power on the airplane, you're in a perfect conversion line to change kinetic energy into total potential energy.As the airspeed decreases going up the vertical line while power remains a constant, HUGE torque factors begin to come into play as you know. In the 51, you need a LOT of right rudder to correct this. (centered ball)A dirty little secret for doing a hammerhead in one of these fighters is that you don't fight the airplane. You always do the 180 at the top back into the down…

I'm in the market for a new monitor, preferably a 21 or 22 in CRT (I can't stand LCD monitors).How are the Samsung/NEC-Mits./Sony/etc.. montiors??Any recommendations?Thx!!:)

I really like the way the default clouds look, but they are bringing down my framerates (I keep all the sliders for clouds full to the right because to me it looks best that way). Can anyone recomend some good cloud replacment textures that look as good (or better than) the default clouds but get better framerates? Thanks.

Hi everybody,I just wanted to let the Flightsim community know of VMAX. I had a problem with my purchase and downloads of Ready for Pushback. I had tried for 8 months to retreive the download and had sent numerous emails to VMAX with no responses. Today I called them. These guys are excellent with their customer service. They never received my emails because of spam filters. I called them had about a 2 minute conversation and they had all my information there at hand. They are going to email me a new link to download and were fantastic over the phone. I highly recommend VMAX!I just want to say though I ranted on the forum about this and seen others have had problems with …

I find that on takeoff in the 182, the airspeed doesn't become active until about 30-35 knots. For example if you're holding in takeoff position and have a 25 knot headwind component the airspeed indicator reads 0 and so does the airspeed display on the top of the screen that appears when you hit control z. Why is this? This doesn't happen with any other aircraft in FS2004. The red display on the top screen should certainly show the headwind component. Is everyone else having this problem as well?

I cannot get FS2002 to load at all. The splash screen loads then when you think FS2002 will load itt goes back to the desktop.

Hi,I'm not sure if this is the proper forum in which to place this post. I've been using AFCAD 2.21 by Lee Swordy to add some parking places at various airports so the AI aircraft can park. I decided to try and build my own airport from scratch. I've been following the excellent manual and so far so good. I'm at the place now, however, that I need to get rid of the houses and trees in the apron and uncover two areas of the runway that are covered by the default scenery.The manual mentions using "flattening and exclude switches" to fix this problem. The manual references the Microsoft Article Archive.(www.microsoft.com/games/flightsimulator/fs2000 articles sceneryobjects.a…

Hello,Just started flying the Eaglesoft Citation "fleet" (CII, Cx and CJ1). I'm doing OK except for my landing setups. Could someone please provide info on landing these birds. (Speeds, flaps, AP cutoff ALT for flair, etc)Thanks in advance,Ron SagelNear KCHS

...sorry if this is the wrong forum, I did not know where to put it. I really need help with java, and was hoping this would be a good place to ask!Thanks!

I never noticed this in FS2002, but in FS9 - AI aircraft are black at night, unless they are 'active'. So if you go to an airport after a certain time, the AI planes are effectively pitch black. Anybody know of a fix or work-around for this?CheersRob

Can anyone point me to a good scenery of Dallas Love Field? Couldn't find anything on this site. I'ld also be happy to take a payware product.Thanks

Hi Everyone, I have a couple of questions regarding the eDimensional 3D glasses..When using the glasses, is there any way to get lights to appear in their correct 3D locations in the FS2004 world without turning off Transform&Lighting?Turning off T&L works, except I lose about 20fps and get quite a bit of 'tearing' (bits of runway go missing, strange lines appearing and the like!!)So for me, turning off T&L isn't worth it (unless drivers are at fault etc)..I'd love to find a solution, because it's hard not to go cross-eyed when attempting a night landing!! (what with 2 sets of runway lights, neither of which actually line up with the runway!)Is there such a t…

Is there an add-on made that will create a relaistic crew environemtn in my aircraft when I am flying?If there are, which one is best???

Having just loaded Wings of Power, it is taking a little more time to load FS2004. I remember a year or so back, someone came up with a way to load all of the "extra", non default aircraft in a folder OUTSIDE of the Fs2004 main folder and this seems to speed up the loading of FS2002. Anybody remember or know how to do it? Thanks, Jerrycwo4

Dudley HenriquesInternational Fighter Pilots FellowshipCommercial Pilot. CFI RetiredI've received considerable email from some of you requesting information on aerobatics in propeller driven fighters. I know many of you have purchased the RealAir Griffon Spitfire and are out there turnin and burnin having lots of fun, and I'm just as sure that some of you by now might have even discovered a few new maneuvers that R.J. Mitchell didn't think the Spit could do :-) Anyway, I'll do what I can to get you started off on the right foot, which BTW won't help you much flying the Griffon. I'd be better off getting you off on the LEFT foot!Since I demonstrated the P51D Mustang in rea…

I was puzzled by lack of any verbal instruction during the final exercise in Student Pilot Lesson 3. A quick look at the lesson adventure file and associated sound folder showed that 6 wave files s3-61 to s3-66 are missing. Anyone else see this?A quick look at FS2002 shows that these files *are* present there, so I'll try copying them across.I wonder if any other files are missing? I am patched to 9.1 so I would expect MS to have fixed it if it had been reported before.--Bryn
