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

Is it just me? Or does it seem like RealAir Simulations and PMDG have abandoned the Fly! community?RealAir has been hyping their FS2K SF.360. And PMDG have a new announcement on their homepage promising news about an upcoming FS2K TurboProp.What happened to the Seneca, TB9, and SkyArrow? I can only guess that the Fly! community has crossed the economic event horizon into the vast economic black hole of a dying product. Seems a tragedy. It really is a great simulation engine. Too bad we couldn't get it into open source or something like that...Ah well, at least we have the great folks at ROTW...

All,Since I have been using Fly!II, I've noticed that the brakes have minimal effect. I mainly fly the 757, so I assumed that it was because I was stopping 80 tons, but in recent flights with the ROTW Warrior, I find that I can't do a pre-flight run up because the parking brakes don't have the "grab" required to keep the plane stationary at 2,000 RPMs. (Seems to work fine with the C172.) Now, I'm told by another pilot at AWVA that his brakes work very well on the 757, which leads me to wonder if there's a setting somewhere that I should check to "stiffen" the brakes.Anybody know of anything?

I am thinking of purchasing thise cool 3D glasses. What should I know?Are there any negatives with using this product w/FLY2!? (i.e. - lower frame rates, not compatible for some reason, need to get new drivers.... whatever)What are the pros & cons? Is there anything I should know before buying? I only get average framerates, & get low framerates with the really busy airports. Are these really worth the money & are they all that they seem cracked up to be?Thanks.Chris [email protected] Dimension XPS T600Pentium III 600mz384 mg physical RamELSA Gladiac Ultra Video Card (G Force Compatible) (64 Meg Ram - latest drivers)Windows 98DirectX 8aForce…

Am I the only one who cannot connect to even get a list of multiplayer servers in Fly! II? For the past 3 days when I enter a name and hit connect it fails to give me a list of available multiplayer servers. An error message appears that tells me to check my network connection. My connection is fine.I don't play multiplayer, at least that way, but making that initial connection is necessary in order to download the latest METAR from within Fly! II. I'd hate to go back to using an external download program again.Anyone having similar troubles?Scott Millhisler

G'day all,Trying my hand at producing some cockpit views. Decided to start with the side views first ( the easiest :-) ). The *.tga files didn't cleanly convert from RGB to indexed colour so there is a bit of touch up work to be done.Cheers,Roger @YSSY
