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!

    I am making an announcement here... ;-)I've been working on this for a VERY long time, and it seems it's coming to a point where it's close to being ready...I am happy to say that, barring any unforeseen issues and problems with the clients side, I'm able to send POSITION and ORIENTATION data over to one (or MORE) different PCs, EACH running a copy of Fly!2.This means that, if you have multiple PCs, each hopefully set up the SAME exact way, scenery-wise, you will be able to see multiple views of your session, based on whatever settings you choose for each PC.For example:I have a "Server" PC in the middle of my desk which is displaying the main view, with the cockpit panel…

    I originally posted this on the Squawkbox forum but haven't had any feedback there. Any ideas, anyone?On occasion I'm having trouble tuning to controllers frequencies. For example, tonight, I was trying to tune EGSS GND on 121.72. However, the radio would only tune 121.71 or 121.74. This was with the Hawker. Is there a way to get around this problem?Andrew Luck18 miles SW EGSH

  25. Started by Rakham,

    To put a digital video camera on board of a plane and let it run for about one hour, this is nothing special. It could film the taxiing, takeoff, a short trip around the airport, landing and taxi back to the parking. All this would take about 3-4Gb on a HDD, right?:-)Now we have a huge data file. Would it be possible to transform this file into a scenery file for the scenery folder of Fly!2.?One would then see the cockpit of a Cessna on our screen and use that file to learn to fly. Is this utopic?:-)RegardsRakham
