Does anyone know where to get version 106 or higher of Flyedit?

I'm trying to build EGTR, Elstree airfield near London UK using TM2.11. This is an airfield that I have inserted already into the Fly!2 database as it did not exist. I have already produced the scenery area ('Heathrow Zone') and therefore have copied off a .bmp showing the area around the airfield for my background. When I start my project by putting in 'EGTR' to the startup menu it finds the airfield in my modified database OK and shows the correct runway, however I also get a spurious taxiway that does not appear in my Fly! airfield.See attached pic shows it (minus the background bmp).I cannot get rid of this taxiway apart from switching off the 'view taxiway' menu. Any…

Hello everyone.As you know there is a new version of SpeechBuddy, SpeechBuddy Interface Version 0.2, Developed by Billy Verreynne [email protected] This new version uses DelphiWebScript II (DWSII), for additional flexibility and control. Using SAPI5 engine this makes Voice control a very achievable and practical goal.Here is part of the

Anyone interested in trying out a GPS data output utility for Fly2? It writes your Fly position data to a serial port in NMEA format. You can connect a laptop, PDA, etc. to your serial port and follow along.I wrote this so I could practice with AnywhereMap on my iPaq, thought it might be of use to others.-Frank

Hi.........I

I uploaded a scenery pack for D200159. Raystown Lake (not Raymond Lake, misnamed in my package)is the center of attention. I had to move the much of the lake off a ridge so that the far-distance textures would look good, which meant Terrascene segments had to be included for day textures and the water mask. I also included the render options pack I used so that when rendering you will be able to match my textures. Needless to say, I flattened the lake, the Juniata R. and the West Branch of the Susquehanna--the requisite gxx.trn files are included in the pack. To give you an idea of what the scenery looks like, I'll post some shots

What are the 'bare minimum' requirements for these files. I am looking basically to design an electrical system from the ground up, and I would rather not weed through more things that I need :-) When I take an exsisting plane, and modifiy said files, I get errors out the wazoo ;-)Thanks a bunch

I've got BIberall.pod , but when I installed the Simvol zurich airport scenery, FLy2 gives me the above cpp error. Any ideas?tony

Looks like there is a way it can be done:http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/DCForumID10/1282.htmlDon

G'Day!After a long time I tried again to use flyscripts. I took a download from flyscripts 1.2 and I installed this feature. But now the problem. I fly with the Hawker in Fly!2k. And after the normal start the left engine goes off!!!!! After a restart in the air maybe in 1 minute the left engine goes off again. And so on. This is not normal, true?????What should I do?? If anybody knows this problem I'll be happy if he helps me. Thanks and greetingsMare

I've used Terrascene many times for Fly to do the Western coast of Michigan. Now Im trying to do the Detroit area. I've never used Shapefiles of Canada (Winsor) With DLG files of Michigan (Detroit). Do I just let Terrascene merge the two data sets, or would I have to edit the shapefiles at the Detroit river?Cas

I'm trying to get PhotoShop7 to open an 815Mb full TS2 Globe Tile TGA.Although I have 50 odd Gb of unused drive space on 3 drives I am unable to get the PhotoShop7's 'scratch disks' setting (under 'preferences') to allow me to open this size of file. I know there is a relationship between the RAM set in the memory 'preferences box'(I have 512Meg of actual RAM) but setting all the 'scratch disks' choices to different disks, all of which have lots of freespace still fails.I get the 'not enough RAM' message each time.What am I doing wrong? I can easily open enormous files once they are into PhotoShop format (PSD) but it's the TGA's that I can't open.Some more 'UK scenery'is…

Right now I am constructing the electrical system for a Boeing 747-400. I have this so far://///////////////////////////////////// // // Nose Wheel Steering // /////////////////////////////////////// - Subsystem entry - batt - Battery - - amp-hour rating - 34 24.0 -- Steering Control -- ster But whenever I try to use it in FLY! 2 I get an error message stating that it can't process next tag line. What does this means and how do I fix it?And, what steps should I take after this? I should get the generators working on each of the engines, right? And then the APU? And about the APU, how best to set it up? I appreciate the answersClear Skies

I've been trying to raise the oil pressure at idle for the Hawker as I find the caution lights keep coming on when taxiing.The relevant file appears to be tri4.ngn which contains the following lines: -- Oil Pressure vs rpm -- -- begin 1D Table -- - x poly - 0.0 0.0 0.4 0.0 62.5 1.0 8.33 41.67 - end format - -- end 1D Table --Can anyone tell me how the values in this table work?ThanksAndrew Luck18 miles SW EGSH

Hi folks,I downloaded a couple of europe sceneries and some of them made FLY2 to crash. from the error message I understood that there are some objects=models missing. I checked on my MODELS folder but couldn't find them. I also checked TM2.2 (which I'm currently using), Bibers and ROTW models but couldn't find any 'wanted' models.Just to test the problem I copied a model and gave it the 'missing' names. Since then I can access the airports. But can see buses everywhere as I copied BUS.BIN and renamed to BUSH.BIN. the BIN files I'm missing are named:BUSH.BIN, BUSH1.BIN .. BUSH4.BINHOUSE.BIN, HOUSE1.BIN .. HOUSE5.BINB_HOUSE.BIN, B_HOUSE1.BIN .. B_HOUSE5.BINI'm sure there…

G'Day!The last days I'd try render the globetile 0-170 with terrascene 2.0 - means east part of london. My FlyEditor 1.06b is running and running. When he's finish I have correct epd folders (1*scf,1*txt,2*epd) in my fly!2k scenery folder but he's empty - only some kB. During the work in the FlyEditor he's jumping from globetile 0-169,1-169 until 255-169; than the same with 0-170, 1-170 until 255-170. Then 0-171,1-171 until 255-171. Between he need some minutes for 127-170. After this I have more than 1250 data folders in my fly/data folder. HAHAHAWhat can I do to make the globetile??????Thanks for Your help.mare

Hi late nighters,I've been attempting to use Elrond Elvish's and Jim Kanold's Ground Type Transform (GTT) utility to see if I could place some solid ground underneath the landscape I created for Honolulu International, specifically around the runway (8R/26L) that Fly! shows to be out in the ocean when in reality it sits on what looks like landfill. Using GTT I found that a couple of the tiles I've been sinking in are actually land, not water. In fact I sink not as I come up on these tiles but more towards the middle of them. Is it possible that some of the tiles are not simply land or water but a combination of both? Or does the coast.pod somehow overide the globe.pod? I …

Hi,Can someone tell me if the European edition contained any European taxiways?I bought the US version as soon as it was released and there are no Euro taxiways in the pods.If it did ship with taxiways would someone be kind enough to let me have a list of them. The output from the File Manager function to catalogue a pod file would do fine.ThanksColin

Can anyone tell me if or how I can add 7.5 min DLG data to use in TerraScene. The 100K data is old and only Large DLG data is newer, and I want to have the newest [email protected] Hill;

Is there a way to configure TerraScene to Download and use 7.5 Min DLG Files?

Hello, I've located 3 and 6 meter imagery for the entire state of Florida and of course want to make some scenery. The attached TGW file only gives one set of coordinates instead of the two sets that FLY! asks for. Is there a way around this or a program out there to find out what the other coordinates are?Thanks for any in info!JamesHmmm... Tastes Like Chicken!

G'Day!Now I'll try to create models for an airport. I have installed the Terramodels v.10 from Allen Kriesman but I have not the knowhow to create a nice model for Fly!2K - I see nothing!Is anybody who can help me? Or is there a possibility to convert the models from another flightsimulator to a format, that fly!2k used? Or a better manual to create a model?Thanks for Your helpmare

TerrScene 2.1I have what is supposed to be 1994 DLG data yet a lake that has been open from Oct 1988 is not in the data. I am in need of data for 198-158 and 198-157, (Clarksburg East and Charleston East) is their another method or place I can obtain the data for TerraScene. Please e-mail me if you have any suggestions or available data.Richard [email protected]
