Recently I've run into a rash of problems running FS2002. It will begin the start up sequence and throw me out approximately 10-15 seconds in, before the loading bar pops up. Trying several different things, I finally removed FSUIPC from the Modules folder and FS2002 works properly. I've been running the various versions of FSUIPC since it came out without a problem. I don't understand why I'm seeing this problem occur now. I downloaded and installed the lastest version after I discovered the problem and that didn't cure it. Any ideas what is wrong and/or how to fix it?Thanks

Several have appeared in the file library today. Haven't DL'd it yet, but it looks like it could be a candidate for the top 5 thread.... -John

Well...only the CRJ's at Toronto (CYYZ)....I checked out the flightsim.001 etc numbers to make sure that there were no installer spaces, etc. in each aircraft's config fileI separated each section you know...001. 0002, etc..and still nothing. I only seem to get the default commercial traffic.Has ANYBODY got it(them) to work...the Delta, EasyJet, Air Canada, etc packages?Will probably give up trying to get it to run...and just delete.Before I do...if anybody has them running...what did you have to do?I have 737/767/319 etc loaded in the aircraft folder but they simply do not show up in the sim.Mitch R.

I just DL this great looking aircraft but am having a problem. i am using the MS FF2 joystick and it only operates the engine 1 throttle, what do I need to do so that all engines operate with this joystick.ThanksSean

I'd like to take a look at their biz-jets that are coming out soon.Thanks!Shane

I'm trying to install the Alaskan Commuter #9 package but I have never installed new scenery before. I thought I unzipped everything to the right folder, but when I go into the game and the scenery library I cannot find the file to add the scenery. The instructions with the package are a little sparse for someone who hasn't done this before. Can someone tell me how to install the package correctly and get it working. I am interested in doing a little bush flying. Thanks for any help.

Hi all,I installed FSUIPC latest and PAI Air Canada last night, and now my Sim won't start. I'm not blaming either of these great addons, that's just for information as to the last thing modified.Now, I get a few seconds of the Splash screen, and straight back to the desktop. No error message. I've had this before, and fixed it, but I can't remember how!Is there anyone here who has had this, fixed it, and wasn't drinking Laphroaig at the time!?Cheers,Gareth Evans

I normally set view zoom to 75-80% but as soon as I use the hat switch to pan the zoom reverts back to 100%.How can I alter the default to 75% and would I have to do this for individual planes.I have Panning in cockpit mode set in the FS2002.cfg could this be causing the zoom to revert or is this normal?RegardsBaz

Just like everyone else, I hunger for maxed sliders and huge frame rates. After recieving an insurance settlement I decided to take a huge plunge and upgrade to what I considered would give me a super computer.2.6 AthlonXP, GigabyteKT400 Mobo, 512 2700DDR Ram, Win 98SEGeForce 4 Ti 4200.I could barely contain myself on the way home as visions of smooth flying and monster frames danced in my head.I was very disapointed to discover that FS2K2 still slopped along at 20 - 25 fps. If fact, flying in Alaska with Full terrain mesh, trees and all the other scenery I could find, with the Dreamfleet Archer, I recieved no more than 20 fps dipping to 15 - 13.Nothing but Systray and …

It seems like older siblings get all the good toys! My brother just traded in his Malibu for this TBM 700. I can't wait to fly in it and maybe rest my hands on the yoke while the AP is on.David

I have decided to purchase one of these products. I have heard both are great, which makes the decision that much tougher. Any compare and contrast views out there from people who own both?Thanks to all who responded in my last thread.Shane

I am aware that glasses can be bought...but I was wonderin', I thought one user indicated they were at first using the cardboard movie goin' glasses with some ? results! Am I dreaming or do these cardboard 3D glasse work..even a bit??Mb

Hello has anyone found the new link to AvHistory as it has not propagated over here yet. I can get to the home page but the link is dangling.Is this working for you?http://home.socal.rr.com/flighttest/Ian

Is there a mod to add, or add-on 172S aircraft with wheel pants,like the new factory Skyhawks?Dennis Mitchell

Public ApologyFellow simmers,While I am certainly not pulling anyone

Yeah I'm looking for Avro Lancaster Panel/s. My grandad flew Lanc's during the war in england so I've kinda got an affinity with that aircraft.Any assistance regarding sites or whatever would be appreciated.Thanks in anticipation.Paul_J

WHen shutting off the Auto Pilot just before landing oneof the Boeings does one proceed to turn off the auto/throttle?Does leaving the auto/throttle on prevent the thrust reversors from being deployed?Thanks,Myles

Hello all,This is my very first post on Avsim. I have been downloading a lot of goodies and reading reviews and news from this site. Could anyone out there who designs aircrafts for FS2002 help me with this issue with the Debonair created by James Eden and Geoffrey Applegate:FS2002 offers four views: Cockpit, Virtual Cockpit, Tower, and Spot. Within cockpit view, you can press W to have: (A) a view showing the 2-D instrument panel, (:( a view showing six instruments, and © a view showing no instruments at all.I am referring to the cockpit view (with six instruments showing/or no instruments showing. Press the W key to see these cockpit view modes). Anyways, with the pilot…

Hi fellow SimmersI am trying to make my own aircraft textures. Could someone please suggest an easy to follow good tutorial for a hard to understand limited brain not very much puter minded. Ok, so maybe I am lazy a bit also....In the mean time, could someone tell me where I could find and install the color palette in PSP.Thanks guysLeon Louis Flatspin_Fumble

Has anybody used the AI texture installer beta notedon the front page of avsim? A good tool to associateaircraft with flight plans would be good for AI. I usuallymanually install PAI planes exclusively because their variousauto installers dont always work perfectly in ordering andnaming the aircraft in cfg files. (no big deal cause I liketo control the detail.) However I've started using more andmore AIA and FSP planes in place of the PAI birds even thoughI use the PAI flight plans. In any case, before monkeyingwith another tool, I thought of asking what the experience ishere.ThanksEric

When I bought it, there was supposed to be an update every week. Last update was Jan 5, 2003. Then we were promised an update near the end of Janurary and now it is Feb 5? Anyone know if they are still updating? Looked for an email address at there site but could not find one.

I am finding the autopilot on the Lear to be very stubborn to engage.Is there a specific command sequence which is required to activate the autopilot, or is there perhaps a minimum altitude or speed requirement?

The stratoliner has been released.It can be downloaded from http://www.kaibocorp.com/vawand soon in the avsim library.(Edited(It is now uploaded to avsim))EnjoyAl

I have saved up for a while, I would really like to buy an LCD, I was thinkin an 17" or 19", I have a couple of questions though, are they good for gaming, I can't remember where I read this but they said that LCD's are not as good as tubes, is this true?, Also can they get screen burn?, Do I need to have a screen saver on so I do not ruin the monitor?
