The FLY General Discussion Forum

All,You may agree that I am pretty tolerable of a little back and forth in this forum between "the sims", as long as the AVSim guidelines are met.I mean, without Larry, the Fly! forum would only have half as many posts, right? ;-)But don't think for a minute that I will let any childish bickering take place here, no matter who it is.http://www.thesalters.org/images/Avsim_sig_KS.jpg

Very fast and stable AMD

I want to post pictures but im not sure if im allowed to post it here without the permission of Tri or developers of Fly! 2. What I did is I edited the scenery textures form the default fly! 2 for use with Terrascene 2.1. There's some changes and I don't want to disrespect the developers by doing so. If there is ever a chance that I can post it here I would still give the developers the full credit for making these wonderful textures.The only question is can post these pictures?Thank you,Pluto1168(Kelvin)

Well, I think everyone had fun with last week's question, so we're off to another week. This week comes with the help of Mike, who emailed me one question. I've added on a few more like-minded questions to try to spark up a real lively conversation.As always, feel free to comment on the questions themselves, and be prepared to defend your answers.And above all, have fun!1-Can money buy you happiness? or Can money make you happy?2-How much additional income would you need to meaningfully change your life?3-Finally, If your income doubled, how long do you think it would take you to alter your spending habits so that you would have as many financial concerns as you do today?…

By popular demand, we have created a new forum for Flight Plans. The intent of the forum is to provide a resource for providing flight plans, requesting them, and learning how to create them. This forum is for ALL sims and add-ons that allow for the use of flight plans. You can find the forum here in the Miscellaneous section of the AVSIM forums system:http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...conf=DCConfID10Hope you enjoy the new resource!

F-GTMJ on a visit to sweden, shown here on a downwind leg for ILS 29L at ESTL, ljungbyhed. Ljungbyhed was the swedish military aviation acamemy's base until the late nineties. It is now used by Lund Univercity School of Aviation, of which I am a student.We normally fly PA-31s but the socata is to good not to fly!Just thought I'd share.....:-shy The airport is a work in progress. Will upload when done if anyone is interested.cheersAndy

Hi, I wanted to know if it is worth to buy the CH Pro Pedals USB! Do you think that the price is too much for those pedals? Does something else exist?Thank for the replies!Nico

Some new scenery pic's from ROTW.As you know, the team works on a sp

I for one do welcome TaxiwaySigns.com aboard! From what I can see, they are doing good work. However, from what I have read in the Library posting this morning, I get the impression that TaxiwaySigns will only make seneries for FS2002! :-( Is this correct or not? :-hmmm If it is, will they consider signs for Fly!2 at any time in the near future? x(Curtis

Hi, everyone - I've owned FLY!2K for about 6 months. I bought it because it seems like it's the original FLY! with all the patches. So, question #1 : is this pretty much correct ?Question # 2 : what final patch (or couple of patches) are needed for FLY!II ?Question # 3 : what are the major differences/improvements between these two versions ? I've gathered that there are some add-ons that work with FLY!2K but not FLY!II, like some (or all) add-on aircraft ( ?), and probably vice versa. It seems like most folks here have simply left FLY!2K for FLY!II, in spite of all the little patch problems here and there - I haven't seen many FLY!2K posts ever since FLY!II was relea…

Greetings All. I've been away from FlyII for a few months and decided to revisit it. Anyway, I recently upgraded my old GeForce2 GTS 32MB video card for an ASUS GeForce3 Ti200 card. I'm running Nvidia's current 28.32 Windows 98 drivers on the Ti200. My problem: Whenever I select High Detail Textures on the graphics options screen, FLYII chugs for a few seconds on loading and I get the following error dialog: "DirectX8 3D Driver Error - DrawIndexedPrimitive SVertex failed". Has anyone encountered this before? Could this be an NVidia driver issue? I've never used High Detail Textures before, so maybe I have a configuration problem. Turning it off eliminates the er…

Having been a long time user of MSFS, I would like to give FLY! a try. Is it still available, and where? ThanksDave W.

Hi, I have decided to upgrade my computer and have selected new componants but not knowing much about computers I would really appreciate someone who knows about them to comment before I buy. I have bought the parts from www.dabs.comI currently have a pentium 3 550mhz processor, a motherboard with no AGP ports and an integrated 8mb graphics card. Its a wonder fly! runs at all (I also play max payne and it barely works!) Ok, here's the parts: AMD Athlon 1.3 Ghz socket A processor,Gigabyte SoA VIA KT133A ATX A motherboard and GeForce 2 MX 200 32mb graphics card. One problem is the motherboard is compatable with 168 pin DIMM PC133SDRAM. I currently have 168 pin DIMM PC100 SD…

I generally fly out of KPHL on a regular basis but always run into the same problem. :-grr The majority of the time, when I start up Fly!2, no matter what aircraft I choose to fly, I must make repairs. :-mad The reason is because I am either on top of, under or in the way of some 747. :-8 Once the repairs are made, I am teleported to runway 26. :-boom When using C4TO, I am given clearance to another runway!. How can one change the starting position of the aircraft so that repairs are not constantly required. It's a long way from runway 26 to 9R. :-newburn Any help is appreciated!!Curtis :-)

There is an increadible "NASTY" debate regarding freeware critisim over in the General FS main forum. Apparently, an FS freeware develope recieved extremly heavy critisim regarding his plane and more or less picked with his critics, whom include THE PETER SIDOITE (s.p). Also, Make sure to check out the WHAT? A NEW PLANE LINK!! and leave your comments.Yours Truly,CB

I don't think so. This is your only warning - don't start it over here.BTW, don't post your sig to avsim, host it yourself.

Would you PLEASE!!!! unlock the "NASTY" thread. I promise to be civil.ThanksCB

Here is a link to a story about our two-ship flight of Bell 407's that took a flight around Manhattan Island this weekend, using Scott's NYC scenery enhancement for Fly2. Robert (Callsign-Helibird) and I (Callsign-SimPilot on Fly2 multi) landed at each of the four heliports in the Scott's NYC scenery, and also made a quick stop over at Liberty Island. It was great fun!http://ftp.avsim.com/cgi-bin/dcforum/dcboa...rum=DCForumID47Hope you enjoy our screenshots, posted to the screenshot forum!Wayne
