The FLY General Discussion Forum

The General Discussion forum for the TRI series of FLY Simulators.

Dedication

Richard Harvey

Lake Tahoe

September, 2002

This forum and all others related to the FLY series of flight simulator, are dedicated to the memory of Richard Harvey - the lead designer for Terminal Reality's Fly.

 

At the AVSIM FANCON of 2002, Richard and his wife, Tara, attended. Richard was presented with AVSIM's Lifetime Achievement Award for his contribution to the flight simulation genre and his outstanding service and support of the FS community. Richard was a friend to many of us, and never hesitated to assist and inspire. Richard passed away the following March, 2003. He is sorely missed by his friends and those that were privileged to know him.

 

Richard in his last post to the forums said; "Try to stay away from things that are dark, dreary, introspective, tear jerkers, etc. Think HAPPY -- be HAPPY. If that is too much to ask, then I'll change the word HAPPY to POSITIVE. That's the flow of feeling I want rolling through my soul as I depart this earth from each of you, is absolute POSITIVE energy. Don't stall on me, I have to soar!"

 

Richard also passed this along to us in his last post; "******* Christ is my Lord and Savior. As my loving God and Lord has protected and guided me throughout my life, I pray he will do likewise for you and your family. May each of you achieve your dreams, and not be troubled by hardships. I pray for your good health. God will only give you as much load as you can bear, and never any more. Do not lose hope, nor certainly faith. Above all, do not fear evil, for though it surrounds us it can never hurt us. It may claim hollow victories, but it always suffers defeat."

 

We are proud to carry on Richard's undaunted support for his passion and his unstinting support of the user. Welcome to the Richard Harvey Memorial Fly Forums!

    If you haven't already, go check out the new Bush Net forum. AVsim has set up a place for bush flyers to fly online, multiplayer. It appears to have support for Fly!2 as well as FS2K2.Since Tom A. didn't announce it over it over here, I thought I'd mention it in case someone who was interested wasn't aware of it. -Lindy :-wave

    I just wanted to make a short comment on the SoCal scenery.This fantastic scenery is really a benchmark for Fly!II, isn't it? I mean, when we really wanna take great pics we fly over this scenery. It's been around for a while, yet there are few sceneries like it.Oh, I wish we had more scenery like that. :)John IvanENHD

    After installing Flight1's "Isles of the West Indies" I found that the default Virgin Islands' St. Thomas and St. Croix seem to have extra land than they should have. Basically their now mire square blocks in the middle of the ocean with texture and trees than the contoured islands that they should be. I hope this problem gets corrected soon...Les--

    We finally figured out the root cause of the problems everyone has been having with our multiplayer server. We recently switched ISP providers, and today after digging we discovered the root DNS entry for the primary server connection was wrong. We have sent an email to our ISP to have it point to the right server. Players should be able to connect in 3-4 days (depending on how fast our ISP updates their DNS servers and how fast the DNS propogates to the your local ISP).Thanks for your patience!Rich

    Hello,Recently, I bought a new router because I want to share my internet connection with others PC.So, today I tried to connect to Fly ! 2 multiplayer, and a got an error message : Impossible to connect to servers, check your network connection.So here is my question :Are the multiplayers servers down ?or is it a problem with my routing ? If you have some knowledge in connection sharing, you know that a router blocks any port that it's not very usefull. So, when special applications use a different port than usual ports (like 80 for http for example), you have to manually open the port to allow the traffic to pass trough the router.But I don't know the exact port that Fl…

    I am trying to "package" the scenery I made. When I choose "package scenery" from the file menu, I check off the option "Create POD & SFC files only". I keep getting an error message:errors spawning MAKEPOD.EXE application in TM21 directory. Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong? I am actually using TM22. Also, do I need to make a POD response file with TM22? I still don't understand what it is. I read the old TM21 documents, & I still don't get it. In the new TM22 documentation, all it says on the bottom of page 35 is that these things will be "self explanatory" for advanced users (which I am not).Can anyone help me? Thanks,Chris

    How can I rename the name of an aircraft in a way that the new name will appear in the aircraft list of the Fly!II menu? For instance: TRI Flyhawk -> Cessna 172. I did it before but I don't know how anymore.
