Anyone using the Thrustmaster - TCA Sidestick Airbus Edition with Windows 7?

Hello, I am trying to get the following to work, using AIFP (latest version) I have downloaded a Tupolev 95 Bear AI plane, from Military AI Works I want that airplane to fly a flightplan, from Murmansk (ULMM) to Havana (MUHA) In AIFP, I selected the plane, and entered the flightplan, without any problem. I then compiled the bgl.. When I go to Murmans, on the appropriate time, the Tu95 does not show up, so must be doing something wrong. When I made a flightplan from Rotterdam to Bordeaux, with the same TU95, the plane does show up, taxies, and does the take off. I suspect this may have to do with summer/standard time, or the different ti…

This is very strange. I have Imaginesim KATL Atlanta 2016 installed for FS9 but have recently noticed that textures on the middle section of Concourse T, Concourse A and a few others don't load at all yet I'm sure they are in the texture folder? Also noticed that the static vehicles now have a missing shadow underneath so you can see the texture outline over the tarmac. Also missing some jetway logos it appears on certain concourses. Very strange, I can't see any missing textures in the folder though. My textures are in DXT3 format and the occasional one saved as 32bit but everything I can see is there, truly baffled. Anyone able to help? Concourse T …

Hello everyone, Is anyone using a PSS 777? I bought one yesterday to eventually merge with POSKY 777. I am getting ridiculous frame rates of 13-14fps with the PSS 2D panel. I easily get 55-60fps with PMDG, CLS, LevelD aircraft. One thing I observed is the the extended bitmap 2D main panel is a whopping 2048 resolution. Is that one of the reasons? Will changing it to 1024 help increase FPS? Any help on how can I improve the 2D panel FPS performance? Thank you in advance. Cheers, N

I need tips on finding realistic aircrafts for FS2004. I wanted to know which is the most realistic B737NG, B747-400, B757, B777, B787, A320, A330, A340 and A380 available for FS2004. It can be freeware or payware.

I am using the TDS 737's and noticed on the 737-800 when i use the 2d panel (PMDG) the outside views are abnormal. As per below screen shots the aes ground equipment such as airbridge and steps show in the front and front right view when usually they will show in the rear left view sometimes on the right view. Anyone have any idea what i need to amend in either the aircraft.cfg or panel.cfg to get this back to normal? Any help will be appreciated. Thanks Jamie

Can someone please point me in the right direction for solar farm scenery object library for use with ADE? Thanks!

Hi Guys I am still an old FS 9 user and am looking for a scenery of Auckland Airport and the landscape for my old simulator, if possible as payware. Does any of you know where I could buy something? I had asked Aerosoft once but they seem to me to be very arrogant 😞 ... or does one of you have a nice scenery from Auckland for the FS9, maybe you could get into business ..

Hello pilots! Posky Embraer has a great VC but is not fuctional! I cant press any buttons or anything!!! Is there any working VC version?

hello everyone. I have a problem. I cannot get FS2004 to work with SweetFX. it has always worked before but all of the sudden for some reason it just stopped. no updates, nothing. this is the first time i've had problems and it has to do with the d3d9.dll. any external program using this dll (sweetFX, ENB, etc...) causes the sim to crash upon startup... any ideas on how to fix this issue?

I would enjoy (I think) getting into AI traffic, as i see so many flight plans pre-written and available. Is there any source of a "package" or complete download that would get me started without too much pain? As you can tell, I am totally new at this. Thank you very much!

Hi there, I am looking for an AI traffic manager which has these features (for FS2004): -Back up your AI traffic (whole library) -Customize your AI aircraft. This is a fully customizable tool. I wonder if there is a software either freeware or payware that can control each AI traffic. Something like the runway type it operates, the runway length, civilian or military airports only, countries that it is allowed, IFR or VFR only etc. Of course respecting realism. I do not want an American Airlines B777 taking off from North Korea or a Piper J-3 Cub landing in the arctic at a military airfield. One thing that I would like to have the freedom is to include v…

Hello all, I need some help on FS2004. I have decided to install it again simply because it runs smoothly even on today's lower spec PCs. FSX was very good but it requires a huge amount of horse power to run it like FS2004 and Prepare3D series has helped just a bit but not enough for me to actually fly it the way I did in FS2004. X-Plane was a good bet but I did not like one issue: lack of splendid AI traffic. If I remember you are only allowed no more than 20 planes instead of 50+ in FS2004. Also, there are no traffic add-ons to add, customize AI traffic to your needs. With all that in mind the idea of reinstalling FS2004 has come up but one thing has …

Good evening, I am using the Overland 737ng, which uses the default gps. I have created a flightplan and loaded it into the gps. When I am airbourne and activate the ap, I activate the gps switch, and nav button. I also have dialed in altitude and speeds etc..I remember from using the default planes this would the trick. But now, when I watch the gps screen, I see that thd aircraft roughly follows the magenta line, but not precisely, something like a mile off. What is the problem? I am using the default nav database I hope someone can help me Thanks

What is the proper version of FSUIPC for FS2004? Thanks!

Hi All, I know FS9 is old but I like it. About 6 months ago I bought a 'Wired 2 Fire', purpose built Computer with Win10 Home, 64 bit OS. (It's great:-) ) However, Win 10 won't let me load Just Flight, Roads & Rivers of Europe. A very nice Chap (Simon) at 'Just Flight', informs me this is something to do with the new Win10 OS, not allowing Protected discs to be installed. He kindly sent me a little piece of software called 'W10 Safe Disc Fix'. I have followed the instructions accompanying this software but am still unable to get 'Roads & Rivers of Europe' to install to my FS9 installation. Does anyone have any advice regarding the problem…

hello everyone. I have been searching for a way to purchase Cloud9 Bergen which was sold through FSDT, however, upon emailing them, I was dissappointed to find that they will not sell it. it's the only decent version of the Bergen scenery, and they wont let us buy it. Is there any way that we can still get this scenery? thanks. Spoiler

Can someone please help me with makemdl.parts xml code. I am trying to have a special effect on a model I am working on that will have a part visible on the left side when flaps are down and left aileron is up OR that will have a part visible on the right side when flaps are down and right aileron is up. This code works correctly for the right side but not for the left. What is happening is the left_part_up becomes visible when the right aileron is up but not visible when the left aileron is up. If i am totally going about this the wrong way maybe suggest a better way. Here is the code i am using <part> <name>right_part_up</…
