    Sometimes it takes my water reflections time to load, and sometimes they don't load. Also, my aircraft window reflections aren't working now. Anyone know what the problem is. I have 5303 drivers with Nvidia FX 5200.

    A couple of days ago I did an especial re-instalation on my son's Allienware Area 51 M Laptop P4 2.4 MHZ 512 Ram, 40 HD running on an ATI 7500 64 Mega on board. The procedure repairs damaged components (dll's,driver, etc without having to re-install all my applications and programs (no reformating the Drive). This feature comes in Allienware recovery Disk. This HD still has 15 gigas empty.After the procedure Everything works fine with all my programs/applications except for FS2004 which only flies ( if you can call it that) with 1.0 FPS (Max rate fixed at 18fps).I have tried everything except re-installing FS9. Of course none of my other programs have 3D utilization so …

    Just a quick question about Project AI: What should I have my traffic percentage set at? Is this a matter of personal taste, or is there an optimal setting? I just recently installed all major US carriers & re-did my GA listings with their's, and I'm astounded! I did AFCAD2 updates for most major U.S. airports with excellent results.This brings me to a second question: I've read posts about 'memory leakage' if you put aftermarket mesh .bgl's in the ADDON SCENERY folder's SCENERY sub-folder. Is it ok to leave the AFCAD .bgl's in there?Thanks in advance

    AutoStar is a program that can be used to customise the Flight Simulator stars display in several ways:1. Adds the planets for any specified date.2. You can add a label for each planet for easy identification.3. Optionally displays the sideral circles.4. Optionally displays an image or message in the stars. By simply displaying the planets without labels it increases the realism of the Flight Simulator night sky a little bit more. It also works with the (highly recommended) RealStars add-on. Mars will be in the news over Christmas and the new year as three spacecraft/landers will be arriving there. The Beagle 2 Mars lander is British-built, so I have my fingers crossed! …

    Hey Guys and Gals,I have been flight-simming since FS98. All I can tell you is that I thourghly enjoy it. I especially Love coming to sites like AVSIM.COM and FLIGHTSIM.COM. I am kinda of a wall-flower per se. I don't post very often to various forums. But after a couple of years checking out these forums, I have concluded this is the best. People, please, please, please remember, that this really a great time-spender. I should know, I was divorced because of this distraction. But, at the same time, know that I believe that this is one of the best-friend making things I know. To put all this in my own perspective, I just wish all of us could collectively give a B…

    I have been looking at reviews and posts, trying to determine what payware aircraft to purchase next for FS2004. I thought that I would try to summarize in a post what I am considering for each type of plane. Any feedback is welcome, especially if anyone has purchased these planes, or think that I have left something out. This is only my opinion. I won't buy most of these, but it is fun to look. Some of the titles are not yet released.Single Engine - ClassicGolden Eagles Stinson Reliant Single Engine - SimpleDreamFleet Cessna Cardinal 177Real Air Simulation Super DecathlonReal Air Simulation SF.260Single Engine - Complex Flight One Piper MeridianMulti-EngineFlight O…

    Hi there.Wondering whether anyone could shed some light on a general sim performance problem.I find that once the settings are cranked up a bit and, to a lesser extent, a few sceneries have been added, the graphic and sound quality of the sim has deteriorated. The graphics component is manifest in poorer frame rates (generally down to about nine per second), a slight (half a second) periodic freeze that occurs every seven seconds, an occasional two-second freeze, flashes of large purple/grey sections of ground and water that appear to be delays in the landclass display, and large tiled sections of ocean.The sound problems are slight periodic sound dropouts. These last for…

    The CTD appears to be a curse of FS2004! Holger Sandman has done a lot of great work around the Castlegar, BC and Sion, Switzerland areas to resolve some of these issues related to the bgl files. But I was still having trouble flying into Castlegar and getting a CTD, so did a bit of further investigation because I suspected the problem was now related to ATC. If you are on ATC leaving an airport, and if following take-off you do not initiate the command

    Today I went to fly from Gatwick to Malta, when I loaded up FS2004 and went to Gatwick the scenery was gone! I checked the scenery library to see if Gatwick was on the list and there was 2 Gatwick2004 entries in there. I uninstalled the scenery then reinstalled the scenery again. After I reinstalled the scenery it did show up again and there was only one entery in the scenery library so I exited FS2004. Now without adding anything I turn back on FS2004 and it starts updating like I did add some scenery. I look at the scenery library and again there are two entries for Gatwick.1. Why did the scenery disapear like that?2. Is it normal to have the Gatwick scenery to be liste…
