Can anyone tell me how to run Delorme Street Atlas in GPS mode with FS2002 (one monitor-one computer)? I have the program GPS Out, but can't figure out how to get it to run. Thank you.

... you are walking down the streets of lower Manhattan and say to yourself, "hmmm, DKNY? never heard of that airport"... you are waiting for your girlfriend in front of a fashion store and think "please expedite your descent":-) any more? Kinda liked those funny threads some while ago...cu,celticmatrix

Hello,Sometime ago I saw a register enter to improve performance in XP, I think it's a cachet thing...anyone knows it, how to do it ? is it worth ?Thanks,Ulisses

Just a little poll, do you prefer to fly in night or day?

Hey Gang!I have doubled my RDRAM form 256 to 512. Is there anything I should do in terms of adjusting any parameters or such that is recommended in order to take advantage of the additional horsepower or is the computer and video card smart enough to realize that there are more bangers under the hood and that a lot of their work is now relieved?Thanks in advance!Sincerely,Dennis D.

Hi all, if I want Activesky to automatically update the weather (download the latest METARs automatically), do I have to have the program minimized while I use FS2002?Thanks,Bill

I have just loaded FS2002, Pro Edition, and when I try to start, the screen goes black and freezes. I have went to Microsoft Knowledgebase and found artical Q316958 about the problem with a potential virus and the Riched20.dll and Riched32.dll files. I have ran a full virus scan(Mcafee) on my computer and found nothing. I then did what the Article advised and I still have the problem.Does anyone know what may be happening?ThanksSystem:Pentium 4Operating System - XP

The new Dash 8 is a superb aircraft but is it correct for the revs to be in the red irrespective of the throttle setting?Cliff

Hey Guys,Hopefully someof you can help me with this.About one month ago my right toe brake stopped working and yesterday my left toe brake stopped working. The rudder pedal push action works to turn the plane but both brakes do not work. I've tried opening them up as one person said was there cure and I found nothing wrong. So maybe you can help me? Ive already reinstalled them twice, recalibrated, check its in the USB and pretty much everything else. So if you have this problem and solved it it would be appreciated if you can give some advice. I konw it has a three years warranty on in but I dont have the recipt anymore (I dont think people keep them for more than a year…

Hi, does FS2002 understand Eagle Flight as a callsign? It is on the list for callsigns but yet, FS2002 does not say it.Regards,Bill

ETA is just in time for Christmas! Stay tuned for more.... And thanks everyone for their support! Enjoy!-Damian Clark

I'm using Windows XP and was thinking about building a keyboard emulator to control some switches for the planes (Lights, engine starts, avionics, pitot heat) My question is... Can, or is there a way for flightsim to recognize that 2 keyboards are attached? One being my default typing keyboard (PS2 port) and the other being the emulator with the switches attached most likely will be USB 2 possibilities I can think of are :1) Run the USB keyboard ... it should recognize the PS2 and the USB shouldn't it??2) How about a switch box? Or is this only for using multiple computers with a single keyboard??I'm waiting for an answer in the cockpit design forum as well, but this one …

First of all,i would like to thank you Bill and your crew.I really like it.:-kewlNow for the question;i just can't seem to be able to find the TRFC button to turn on the TCAS.I'm obviously misunderstanding the readme.>Display>To show the TCAS display in map, vor, and approach modes on the ND, >push the TRFC button to ON, located on the Guidance Control Panel (GCP).>If TRFC is OFF, the ND will not display any targets until a TA or >RA occurs, in which case the TRFC is automatically displayed on the >ND.>If the TCAS button on the GCP is pushed ON, all nav information is >removed from the ND, only TCAS target information is displayed, >range will …

Hi all;Does anybody get inconsistant sound when cycling through views and stopping in spot view?Sometimes the engine sound is fine, but other times it sounds like it is in an echo chamber. Sometimes cycling through the views again will cure the problem. Is there a tweak for this, or is it normal operation?I am using a Hercules Game Theater XP, with the latest drivers, and Win XP.Thanks.

I have a new GEFORCE 4 Ti 4200 w/ 128 MB DDR and some ELSA 3d VR glasses. I have a CTX 19" Monitor capable of 1024x758 117 Hz. It fully meets the requirements for the glasses.I can't get the glasses to fully sync. They tend to flicker. The will lock in for a few moments, but then go back to flicker.For Windows XP my monitor is listed as Plug and Play. Do I have to get a INF file or something to define the capabilities of my monitor to Windows XP??In the NVIDIA Stereo setup I set all the parameters, In 1024 x 768 the max HZ I can set is 100 HZ. Where as the monitor is capable or 117 according to the specs (the link): http://www.ctxintl.com/products/crt_pl9.htmAnd when …

Hi all, I heard the real ERJ doesn't have auto thottle. Hard to believe in this day and age. It's tough to leave this plane when on autopilot without that "computerized chick" coming on warning me in her lispy voice that I'm exceeding the speed limit. I usually end up overstressing the bird and losing a flight that I'm really into. Even if it isn't real, is there a way to ADD "cruise control" to this wonderful plane and panel? To me, that would make it just about perfect. Stan

This doesn't make much sense to me, but I cannot figure out how I lost all AI at Atlanta Hartsfield. Everywhere else is normal. I have PAI and other AI that I have added that show up fine everywhere else, but nothing loads for Atlanta except my A/C. Any thoughts or ideas on what might solve this appreciated.

I was wondering how the takeoff lengths of the various AI planes are determined? I would love to see variying takeoff lengths for the AI planes, so for instance a Varig MD11 from Copenhagen to London doesn't use the same takeoff lenght as an MD11 from London to Brasil, as the latter is much heavier. I love the PAI airplanes and I feel it could be even cooler if you could implement these features. Well just some thoughts.

I'm flying a FS98 737-500 (why, do you ask? Cuz no one made fs2002 737-500 in ual colors yet!) and atc sends me along with the other ai 737's like mine over to general aviation parking when we get to an airport. what can I change to get atc to think that my 737's are bigger planes. (I also noticed this with another FS98 plane i'm using as AI, a 747-200. I'll get around to posting screenies soon.)

Dash 8 visible in my Select Aircraft window? I feel a bit silly, having been here since 2K2 was released and never really noticed they wern't showing up. All those lovely third party aircraft to try I suppose. The Panel folders are mssing aren't they, so which panels do you recommend? Running the Pro edition.I have just done a hard disk reformat, a minimal instal of Win98SE (no Internet Explorer or Outlook Express etc)and nothing else on C: but essential drivers and 2K2. It runs so much better, loads quickly and I seem to get 15/25 fps on my Voodoo 5/Athlon 1.3 with all settings maxed (no fsaa). I'm keeping the addons to the bare minimum too.Go on reformat = you know i…

I read about such a gauge some days ago and would like to add it to a few of my planes. Could you give me a file name to look for? Also, can this gauge play MP3 fles as well (

Hi there,I'm planning to upgrade my computer to something with a bit more kick. I would like to get the opinion of anyone out there who is running a system which really rocks with FS2002. I have a 1.1GZ machine with a Gainward GF4 Ultra700XP, 512mb SDRAM but I can't use things like reflective textures, autogen scenery at a reasonable density or ATC to max without getting the stutters. I want to know what the ultimate config is for running FS2002? All suggestions welcome.Many thanks in advance.Roger

Gentlemen-Over the last several months I have read many posts disparaging Ariane Studios and the man behind it. While I don't doubt there have been some who have had problems with them, all I can judge them by is my own experience, and so far it has been very positive. I have been very pleased with their products, if I have just not been able to get a plane to work they have given a refund any time I've asked, and their support has been excellent (sometimes answering e-mails within 10-15 minutes, as today)I've only had a few problems getting to their site, and that seems to be when they are adding new products to the page.So I for one will continue to be a satisfied Aria…

Hi all,I know video drivers have been thrashed to death, but has anyone used the Omega drivers ? I`ve heard that performance is slower for gaming, but quality is better.I`m about to reformat my hard-drive, so not sure wether to try these drivers. Any helpful advice would be appreciated.Thanks,RobAthlon 2100+XP Pro + SP11 gig ram.GF4 4600 + Det40.72
