The FLY General Discussion Forum

I was at Electronics Boutique and happened to see a newly released collection of flying games, including FLY2, entitled PAC5 FLying games selling for 29.00. Those of you still looking for fly2 now have the option to buy 5 games. Not bad.tony

Hi there,these are just some screenshots from my point of view during our session with Wayne "SimPilot", Scott "nycflyer" and me.You can already read all about in Wayne's post..While I was sitting on the ship, Wayne landed at the heliport..Landed at Liberty Island, Scott circling around....Scott flying over helos at VERY low altitude :-).While Wayne was landing on the Intrepid, I landed on the ship right left to it..Close formation flight to DXR (Danbury airport). This COULD be the best pic IF I had closed the chat window :-).Preparing for the "race". Eye to Eye Scott and me....That's all, hope you enjoy and it motivates you to fly with us soon...Regards,Robert:-rotorEDC…

Andrew and I had a great flight the other day!!Here are some pics from the event!!

After cleaning out my data folder, I had over 1200 folders in it. I obviously over did the cleaning out, so now when I try to load the TRI Hd SFO and others,I get the following error. At the moment I have very few airports loaded,maybe 7 0r 8 that were producted by our talented crew we have in the Fly II family.C3DModel::Load-can't openBG50543,SMBFile:smodel,CP Line 3704I am in the process of reinstalling the Airports I like and this error will come up on those airports that have models on them,so I feel sure I deleted andor have not yet reloaded all the proper files in the data folder andor scenery shared files folder I need to get back on track.I would appreciate any a…

Here are some screenshots from a Fly II multiplayer "flight-seeing" trip around the NYC area today. We had two Bell 407's, flown by me, and Robert "Helibird", and a Cessna flown by Scott "NYCFlyer." We started at NY's La Guardia airport, and headed West to Manhattan. Scott flew over Central Park, as the two copter pilots made a quick stop at the MetroPort 60th Street heliport. Then, we all flew down the East River. After another landing at the Wall Street heliport, all three aircraft headed for the Statue of Liberty. After circling Liberty Island for some photos, the copters make an approved landing, as Scott flies overhead in the 172. Then, everyone heads North, up …

What ever happened to the progress of the 727? How far along is it? I cant wait for it to be released!

Scott,I want to thank you for the effort you have put into Newark the entire New York area that you have created is fantastic. I have to say the only reason I keep coming back to Fly2 is to fly around the New York area. (I sometimes go over to the dark side and Fly the DreamFleet 737 on FS2002)The frame is great around 25 - 30fps with 4xs antilasing. Is there any chance you could complete Boston (please!!!) I must have flown JFK/LGA/BOS a 100 times. Unfortunaly there is no scenery at Boston.Please keep up the great work and keep FlyII alive. My system specs:Athlon XP2000+Leadtek GF4 4600TI Ultra512 DDR RamSony 19" MonitorRegards,Andrew

Answer: FLYII running on two computers!Announcing FLY2LAN©. A network version of FLYII that allows multiple views on two computers. More computers will be added later on, for now I have used the great FLYNET.dll example by Laurent Claudet.Coming soon....

Greetings,I know this is somewhat off topic, but I'm desperate. I got a new Force Feedback II joystick and can't get it going. I have the original Force Feedback and have had no problems. I'm not trying to use both sticks at the same time. The original has the standard gameport connection, the new one has the USB connection. I've been to the Microsoft support site and read the articles that pertain to this issue. The USB ports are configured correctly according to their website. I've also tried several other things they recommended, but had no luck.For whatever reason, the PC won't recognize the joysticks existence, even though on startup it says "new hardware found" an…

Finally finished and uploaded is my repaint of the TBM700 of the French military, specifically the EAAT, l'Escadrille Avions de l'Armee de Terre. I want to thank the special efforts of Rene Binot, Thomas Jullien and Jean Sabatier of ROTW for reworking many files in the TBM700 POD so that this repaint could be rendered as accurately as possible. As a result, included is a gray interior, the ABT-156 ident on the main panel and two military pilots at the controls, per regulations. As most of you know, ROTW's TBM700 is one of the finest single engine aircraft we have seen produced for FLY!II. It was a privilege for me to repaint it and have the "extra mile" support of the…

Hi all,I've uploaded version 1.1 of Advanced Checklist. I have provided support for multiple checklist files, as well as fault tolerance to XML errors (although bad files will be unusable, they won't cause Fly! II to fall over either). I do have a request. I am presently typing in the checklists for the PMDG 757 and PMDG 777, since I have them. If there are any pilots out there who have the checklists for the Pilatus, Hawker, Malibu, B200, etc., I would be monumentally greatful if you could find a way to get a copy of them to me (via FAX, or e-mail, or whatever). I would like to get checklists for all of the default planes constructed and made available to the Fly! commun…

Can someone please tell me if I still need the program "end it all" for windows XP. If so I forgot where to download it.Thanks.

When installing the upgrade to 210 patch from a fresh cd install, I get "not Old File" error when I select the new FLY.EXE file as part of the patch process. Any suggestions?I had removed FLY several months ago.Dick

Hi,I just wanted to show you some pictures of my latest project: EHVB, Valkenburg, The Netherlands, which will be a good addition to Paul van Roy's Rotterdam scenery tile. This is work in progress. The taxiways and apron are about finished. Just started adding 3D models to the scenery.Thanks a lot to Mannie Garmy for the airport diagram.Best regards,Henri

Hi! A while ago I downloaded a program for Fly! that downloaded world METAR data and displayed the information with the Met Office symbols on a world map. But I've lost this program... any ideas what it could have been?Thanks for any help :)
