    Good afternoon everybody,For a virtual ferry flight I need extra long range tanks. Does anybody know if there is a possibility to modify the tank configuration?What would be the maximum range without extra tanks? What would be a realistic modification?Any idea?

  2. Since purchasing the MAAM R4D DC3 for FSX version with the expansion pack, I have been unable to activate the overhead electrical panel using either the FS menu bar or the icon on the instrument panel.All other facets of the DC3 work fine. It is just this one problem. The aircraft is loaded in FSX with Windows 7. As of this date I have not used the MAAM DC3 in FSX as I have a previous download of the same a/c in FS9 on another machine. Howevwer is there a fix for this problem or am I having some finger trouble that I am not aware of?Really appreciate the help! It is a really great airplane!CAL2024

    I have tried and tried to install the DC-3 in my new computer with no luck. Have win 7. Installed FS2004 on computer and DC-3 works fine. FSX is working fine as well. Tried copying from 2004 to FSX. Tried installing into a folder and moving it. Tried installing directly to FSX. I get only the speery and gps, all other instruments are blank, missing. I tried putting gauges into panel file too. gauges show in the gauge file but I cant open it. Is there something else I can try.

    This was a download package purchased from MAAM 2007. It has workrd flawlessly until the recently. Immediately after selecting any of the several versions included in the package the following message appears and my FS-9 will freeze until I close out the program with the "end Now ' button. This is a verbatum copy of the message" flight simulator was unable to load some aircraft or software.You can continue using FS but this aircraft will be disabled. File:Gauges\maam_RD4.Gau." I have deleted the RD4 DC-3 files from FS-9 and my aircraft files and have reloaded from the original MAAM download Zip 4 times and the message is still the same.Would it be someones guess there is…

    Whenever I click Shift-3 to see the overhead in Mark Beamont's IFR DC-3 overhead panel I see a black area instead of the popup and shortly afterwards FSX closes with an error. I heard that others have had the same problem, but the overhead popup works properly for somebody who uses Vista. (I use XP). Does anyone have any ideas about getting the overhead to display properly? If not, I will comment it out since I have pressed Shift-3 a few times accidentally and it always ends my flight.Also, I tried to use the textures to hide the yoke, and apparently I see the shape of the yoke only on the faces of the instruments, the panel itself shows as if there is no yoke.Donald

    Hi,I recently installed B-25 Briefing Time from the 2004 CD plus the FSX update, and when I bring up the pop up windows to show different sections of the cockpit, I get Fatal Error and FSX shuts down. I've only found a one or two with the same problem and their told it's the uiautomationcore.dll causing the problem. Has there been a simple fix for this and if not, where is a step by step explaination to solve this problem? I'm using Windows 7 64.

    Hi I have an odd problem these days, flying with the wonderful R4D in realtime REX cold weather over ORBX Canada Scenery - although (I think..) I keep an eagle eye to all the meters, crowl flaps, anti ice systems and so on, both engines completely looses power when meeting snow after takeoff!! What am I doing wrong, or miss out?MortenPS. Where can I find a complete flight manual - dealing with cylinder/carburetor heat, proper use of crowl flaps etc. This wasn't included in the downloaded version.

    Hi I just got the DC-3 program and downloaded the manual. The videos don't work in the browser but work fine manually. Is there any way to get them to work properly? Thanks.

    I have R4D/DC-3 installed in FS9. My PC is 2.4 Gig dual core running Windows XP. Video card is GeForce 7800 GTX. I have no wing/tail nav lights or rotaing beacons. Cabin and landing lights work fine. Battery, generators, invertors and light switches are all ON. Harware rendered -lights set full right. I have tried resetting switches by going to Reading startup flight with no joy. If the solution is somewhere in the manual or on forum already and I have missed it I apologize.

    Hello,I have had the MAAM-SIM R4D for many years, I purchased the FS2004 version on CD in its early days (and had the FS2000/2002 one before it!). I have had hours of endless pleasure over the years helped by the huge number of repaints that have been made.Some repaints have recently been released which require:C-47 'ALL THEATERS' EXPANSION PACK WITH VIRTUAL COCKPIT UPGRADE FOR FS2004http://www.maam.org/flightsim/enhance/r4d_enhance.htm#ALL%20THEATERS%20EXPANSION%20PACKbut the page there says that this download:Requires installation of the D-Day Expansion Pack (below) if your R4D/DC-3 CD is 4th Edition or older.

  25. Started by PaulVR,

    Judging by the past work and the reputation of the designers and by the screenshots I've seen, I know the R4D will be a 5 star product. But I'm wondering if it will include the latest FS2004 development techniques, in particular a fully interactive virtual cockpit. Since PMDG's 737-800 NG and Milton Shupe's Aerocommander I've grown addicted to operating an aircraft from the VC without having to resort to pop up panels. I find it very immersive. So, how interactive will the VC be? If it is, i will not hesitate to give it a 6 star rating.Paul
