    Guys, Is this normal for a virtual cockpit to be this dark? When the sun is at your back, the gauges lighten up.Thanks.

  2. Hello all, I have an ATI 8500 128mb. I have tried almost every trick in the book, and have fiddled with Rage 3D tweak for god knows how long, and I have never found a combination that rid me of the blurries! I have also tried all the FS2002.cfg changes possible. If you have succeded with this (or ANY ATI card), please let me know how!!!! Or if any of you have any worthwhile tips to give, then by all means!Thanks alot everyone!

  6. you probably saw the posting on the avsim front page about this new freeware and the reference to Air Marshall Italo Balbo. When the boat was flown across the atlantic in 1933, Marshall Balbo came to Chicago. His visit was commemorated with a memorial column which still stands in Grant Park along the Lakefront at Michigan Avenue and Balbo Drive, also named in his honor... So, the next time you take off from Meigs, swing a little to the Northwest and give the area a flyoversherm

  9. This relates to my original post entitled:"DirectX 9.0, 30.82s....before and after tweaks (pics)"Paul (PaulL01) suggested that it might be more appropriate if I tried looking down and examining the various terrain extended texture levels (levels 1-3 in my case) from a higher altitude.I thought it might be useful to post my results, but this involves 5 images each >100K in size. Therefore, to comply with Avsim rules, these images, along with further explanation, have been posted to the Screenshots Forum under:"Re: DirectX 9.0...before and after tweaks - Prt 2(pics)"I hope some find it helpful towards making the decision as whether or not to update DirectX to version 9.M…

    Hi fellow pilots,suddenly, the mouse wheel stopped working in VC view (with or without an actual VC). With AC, pressing the mouse wheel and moving the mouse around makes the VC view to pan around. Well, it just stopped working. Zooming with the wheel still works. Also, in External view, not a single key works anymore.I tried a lot of things, uninstalled AC v1.3, let FS rebuild fs2002.cfg, installed AC v1.3again. Removed the aircraft I installed since the last session when things still worked. I removed even the gauges. Reinstalled directx, video drivers, tried an older version of FSUIPC, removed all suspicious dll's from the Modules folder, etc., etc...Funny thing is, the…

    I'm doing my IR currently, and am wondering if anyone here used FS for practice. I realize that FS is not loggable by the FAA, but I figure it can't be bad for just practice.I'd be interested in any hints or experiences in using FS for this.Thanks,Bruce.KBJC, Jeffco, CO.

    To anyone who can speak French. Can you let the guys know who designed the Concorde that Active Camera causes a problem with their VC??? You can't seem to pan right (well it pans very slow) when Active camera's Interier View is enabled. I would do it myself but I can't speak French. I guess this is also to let others know if they disable this feature in AC1.3 they can look around the VC with no problems.Thanks...

    Now that we have until the summer before the final release is out, we should let MS know what we would like to see improved and hopefully it'll get included in the final release. Since this new version is more of an update than a whole new build, let's try to make it the best it can be or at least try. Here are a few of my concerns, feel free to add more.1. Turboprop dynamics need to get refined. Current version is very unrealistic. FSD has taken great pains to get around this issue with their Piper Cheyenne 400LS.2. Rudder effectiveness on the aircraft should be refined for more realistic results from input. You should be able to use your rudder for small heading chan…

    While a new FS will defenitely mean many new features and enhancements (I'm looking forward to the ATC-AI),it also means starting again from zero.About now,after more than 1,5 years i've enhanced my FS2002 so much (installing add-ons,AI,...) that I finally really like the result,and now I can go do some flying. But in less than a year,the next edition is coming and I can begin all over again.Furthermore, a new edition also means upgrading the computer,even if I currently have P4 1,5 /Gefore3 64MB.So I was wondering,what do you guys think of this?I wouldn't mind if the next edition was to come in more than a full year...

I have a Gforce 4 and 500+ ram, 2 gig system, is there a file I need to replace or a update or something, I am lost and don't know what to do. Very frustrating.

It underlines text and provides links to other sites. I have no idea where it came from. It appears and then boots be back to the AVSIM home page after I have selected Forums. Anyone else have this annoying pop-up. I have a spam filter ,but this gets by it every time.
