Hey guys,Just got my PFC Throttles today (Turbo Prop, 2-engine jet/4-engine jet)!! :-jumpy Thanks Ralph! After going through the PFC.DLL setup, loading Flight Sim, and calibrating the throttles as per Pete's instructions, it appears that the throttles do not work for the new Dash 8-300 by Oleksiy Frolov, and somewhat work on the ATR 42-500 by F.

HelloI seem to be having a problem with fs2002 freezing up while using Active Camera Pro V 1.1. Anyone else having a problem? I deleted it and put the last version back on with no problems happening. I would like to upgrade it to Version 1.1 if somebody has a fix on the freezing up problem on FS2002. Any help is appriciated!ThanksMatt

Hi everyone,Item: Book1.xls.scrVirus name: W32.Bugbear@mmSorry this is a bit off topic but I was the recipient of this virus today via an e-mail. Fortunately Norton AntiVirus intercepted and I was able to quarantine and delete it before any harm was done.The source was my brother's computer and it appears I received it as I was on his list of contacts. Others on his contacts list have also been recipients and he was plagued with many phone calls this morning. Needless to say he seems to have been targeted from some unknown source but, you will understand, he is currently very anxious and worried about the whole matter particularly as he needs to access e-mailing facilitie…

i love this scenery but i have a problem , i think the screen explains it all. i look forward to your reply :)

Hi all,I just came back from a holiday in Bulgaria on a TU-154. What a bucket of S**t that was!. The emergency exit was leaking water all the way and I'm sure the pilot was having problems getting the spoilers to deploy. Scary!CJ

I am working on the data for Scott Campbells (freeware) ACLoader so that it will also cover the DC-3 with DCA's seating arrangement.There is a bit of data that I am having to search out and the faster I find it, the sooner this will be done.If any of you can fill in ANY of these blanks, the quicker this chore will go and will be greatly appreciated.Thanks in advance!

Hi Everyone,I installed Project AI in the first few days after it was released. However, I didn't install any flightplans or schedules, and didn't do anything with it for months. Today, I decided to give it a try. I installed a few "auto-installers" and everything looked like it was going OK. However, whenever I loaded FS, no AI traffic appeared, even when I waited several minutes. Finally, I uninstalled all the packs and the base install, and started from scratch.I installed the base pack, and the Tango and BA sets. I check the three text files and saw the flight plans were there, that the aircraft were listed correctly, and that the airports were there too. Finally, I c…

Using ActiveSky(1.0 + update), the program gives the following error message:Run-time error

Just check it out!!!There is nothing wrong that I could spot!http://www.captainsim.com/727/a3.htmlRegards,Bill

Hello everybody, I was wondering if anybody could help me with the following problem. Since using windows xp I get lock ups in windows when I have fs2002 running, or any other 3d application for that matter. I try to make a connection with my Internet provider and the whole thing just stops and I have te restart the computer. I would like to be able to use the new active weather program but this is impossible at the moment. Any ideas would be grateful.Specifications:Windows Xp + sevice pack 1geforce 64 mb card drivers 40.72creative soundblaster cardamd 1333 processorIMB 40gb harddisk 7200rmp

Greetings to the author of this utility, you are definetly on the right track. However, in addition to the bugs and problems mentioned earlier on this forum, I have found a few more.The program doesn't seem to understand METARs from automated stations (most of them are automated) which add the word AUTO to the beginning of the code. The windspeed and dir come after that but the program interprets it as an error and set winds to zero.I tested the program on several airports around Finland and found that it most cases, it sets the weather incorrectly by picking up a METAR from a nearby station. For example EFOU has EFKE weather (these stations are 60 NM apart), even when EF…

Congratulations, after installing the new version of ActiveSky ver 1.1 on my ME system I had no problems. Install went great, program ran great. Thank you.Now just to mention I like that idea someone had about it running as a module program.Perhaps this could be the next great improvement.

Hello,What

Starting end of this week I will be going on a business trip to HongKong. I will have some spare time left, and was just wondering if there might be an interesting shop specialised in flight sim hardware. Just a wild guess. Anyone who knows something?Alex

Can anyone help me with the following situation with FS2K2:I've noticed the following situation sometimes with AI Traffic:I'm number 3 for takeoff. The first plane is at the hold line and the second one is not directly behind him, more like before the curve to get to the perpendicular point (Hopefully you know what I mean :)). Anyway, The first plane gets clearance for takeoff and he moves onto the runway. However, the second plane just sits there. He doesn't move, even after the first plane has taken off and gotten the handoff to departure. As a result, I have to cut across the grass and the runway to get to the other side of the runway to ask for clearance for take…

I just uploaded the Caravelle III package. It will be available as soon as the good Avsim folks do their thing. As with all my previous aircraft, this is a highly flawed and incomplete work. So it is definately not suited for the discriminating flight simmer. For those of you with such extraordinarly low standards that you can bring yourself to download it, have fun! :-beerchugMike StonePsssst...by the way, it's copyrighted....Shhhhhhhh....some people here don't believe in copyrights.....or Santa Clause, or the Easter Bunny.........

Oh those problems just won't go away. Now I get this every time I'm launching a flight:"fs2002.exe - Application Error-Exception "unknown software exception" (0xc0000024) has occured in the application at 0x77f97412.Click "OK" to exit"Hmpf does anybody know what to do?

To all,After some suggestions and remarks we already decided to improve Active Camera Pro. The version 1.1 is available at www.anticyclone.be/active.html Yes, freeware developers can also provide a good support.Improvements : - a ground turbulence effect has been added (try it while rolling on the runway) - the head latency function has been improved (more natural head movement when turning). Now the virtual cockpit is panning slightly to the left/right. - key commands can be assigned via an editable .cfg file (Useful for Track IR users) - the red text wich appeared permanently in the upper right corner (VC mode) has been deleted Most of the Active Camera Pro features wil…

Does anyone have a really good O'Hare AFCAD file? I'm sick of these near miss landings that I have all the time. If anyone has a file that gives O'Hare parallel runway capability as well as wind direction runway activation (one or the other will do I guess ;)) Thanks in advance.MaulWho Wants To Fly The Big Jets In & Out Of Chicago O'Hare...I DO! :-wave

Does anyone know how to reset the external walk around view after completing a flight? It stays glued to the original startup location and it'd be cool to be able to deplane and look and all the damage I usually inflict on my landing gear upon landing :) "Flaring to land is like squatting to pee" -Carrier Pilot Quote

what is the flap schedule?do r/w pilots do a run-up before takeing off?when rdy to t/o do you set parking brake then run up the throttle and then release brakes? or just gradually throttle up with no brake?thats, all thanks in advanceciao!Brian S

Fellow Simmers,After one of my latest add-on installations, can't remember which, I started to get this annoying massage when starting FS2K2. later on in the simulator I cant see anymore the default GPS so I guess I overwrite the default file by mistake. :-( Please advise what can do in order to restore the default gauge. Thanks in advance,Shay
