The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

Hello pilots! I have a new PC and now I fly with more than 100fps! But I see a small problam that obviously is not from my machine! Some distant ground textures are very late to load and they look very blurry (uloaded) unless I come very close! What can I do for that? Is some configuration in the sim or in my card that can fix this?

Hello pilots! I had my laptop, wih Windows7 dead, so I took a brand new PC with Windows10! The problem is s strange noise that my speakers do only when I m flying in fs2004, they dont do it when I m listening to music! An unusal sound like the speaker is broken but is not, because it plays music very nice and clear! Please Help me!

Hello everyone, I need your help/advice, please 🙂 I am using FS9 on a laptop with Windows XP for more than 10 years already. I decided to buy a new one. I bought the following one: ASUS VivoBook 15 F542UF-DM276T i5 8250 4-core HDD 1TB Graphics: Nvidia MX130 RAM: 8GB Windows 10 Home I have a copy of the whole FS9 folder (with all its files: sceneries, etc...) on an external hard drive. It is a copy of the folder of FS9 exactly as they were installed in my old laptop (running on Windows XP) C:\Games\Microsoft Games\Flight Simulator 9 I have the following questions: - If I will copy the whole folder to my new laptop (…

Hello guys, I'm having problems with my FS9 FSUIPC, because everytime that I open the Flight Simulator it crashes, and when i see the modules folder there is more copies of FSUIPC, the copies just have 1KB but the original one still with the normal size, and simulator does not start up, it error starts when i download mods like PMDG B737NGX or ATR72-500 from 1 flight, i really wants to see these planes, can u people help me to solve this problem?

So i am on the active runway with my Cessna and when i start to roll... the plane starts veering towards the right instead of going straight ahead...so annoying!... Any tips suggestions as for why this might be happening...and a possible solution?... Thanks.

All Robinson fans probably found the problem with strobe light - switch is not working correctly, it is dummy and you cant turn on the strobe on the tail. The solution is quite simple.Find this line in aircraft.cfg (aircraft.cfg is located in your "Flight Simulator 9/Aircraft/Robinson_R22" directory) file:light.3 = 1, -18.90, 0.04, 2.58, fx_beaconReplace it with this:light.3 = 2, -18.90, 0.04, 2.58, fx_beaconBasically I changed the number after '=' symbol so FS would detect it as a strobe, not beacon light, because the switch in the cocpit controlls only strobe lights.***Looks like MS didn't allow the R22 gauge creator to communicate with the one who created the aircr…

Hello to all of you.I use FS9 many years and everything was ok until 2 days ago.I have problem with Saitek X52 normal edition in FS9 and especially with ailerons and elevator.The 2 axis do not follow the movements of mine.The control panel of the Saitek X52 show everything is ok when i move all the axes and press all the switches.But 2 days ago I tried to install FS98 in my Win7 system and see if was possible to play remembering the old days.Installation was succesfull the game started but there was no scenery(not installation problem but display issue) no external views, cockpit ok , sound ok , Saitek X52 not ok , keeboard ok .I tried a few times more ,the scenery was vi…

I am still with FS9 as I don't have the cash to buy new stuff and a more powerful PC. FS9 works great and all, but I was hoping to find a CDU/FMC that could run on an iPad so I have touch screen capabilities. I have a small Raspberry Pi designed touch screen (7") and it works OK, but the buttons are very small. I know that Remote CDU won't work with the PDMG 737NG that I have as tried out the free version just to make sure. Does anyone know of an app to get a CDU/FMC on an iPad that is compatible with the PDMG 737NG and FS9? I certainly don't have the hundreds to buy an actual hardware CDU/FMC. Thanks. John

Hello pilots! I have a problem with posky 757! Without I make any change on aircraft.cfg, all of a sudden, when I take off and drag gears up, the nose wheel stays out and dont get inside! I think is only a visual rhing, because it didnt damage through the flight! How I can fix this?

Hi, I have a question. Can anybody please tell me what happened to WSPilots, why and when, whether it will ever return and where all of its products are currently available? Thank you for your help very much.

using the PAD dash 8 q400 ive used it before and had this bouncing problem not while starting up but while taxiing if i speed it too much. im sure ive found the answer in my past but i cant seem to have found it, i tried looking on my forum/blog and emails to the PAD group and nothing comes up with the answer...so does anyone know where in the aircraft.cfg it is located ro change or fix the problem...it must be contact points area heres the current one "[contact_points] max_number_of_points =8 static_pitch = -0.200 static_cg_height = 10.200 gear_system_type=0 tailwheel_lock=0 point.0= 1, 42.670, 0.000, -10.400, 2500, 0, 0.800, 80.…

Hello pilots! I have a gauge for GPWS warnings and altitude callouts. This gauge finds a folder called "GPWS" in the main FS sound folder and make the job done! Now I have found GPWS sounds from Airbus with "retard, retard, retard" and I have put them in the main FS sound folder in a subfolder called "GPWS1". My question is, how I can make a gauge to direct my Airbus aircrafts to read this GPWS1 folder?

Hello pilots! I m trying to create some soundpacks and I want to ask something if anybody knows and can help! This we call cockpit sound or gyro sound or bomb sound is aircraft's sound or depends on the type of engine? For example A320 has 2 differnt types of engines (CFM & IAE)... Should I put 2 differnet cockpit enviroment sound or is the same despite the engine type? Thank you!

Hello pilots, Does anybody know what is the fs9 temperature that contrails appear by default? I have installed AI contrails and I choosed -27, but the AI cobtrails start in lower altitude than mine! So, I want to configure the right temperature in AI contrails so they start appear at the same altitude for all the sim (AI and mine) Thank you!

I don't know if this has been covered elsewhere in this forum. But I've noticed that some POSKY 747s (namely their VC-25 and E4B models) include passenger stairs, but their commercial 747s apparently do not. Does anybody know why this is? And is there any way to include the stairs on their 747-200s? Or am I missing something?

Is there any live weather engine available for FS2004 that still works? I am struggling to find one. Apparently the best known no longer work.

Hello pilots! In some aircrafts even if I have touchdown effect in aircraft.cfg, does not appear smoke during landing! Why?

Everyone we are finally done! Schooooo. It has been one under taking for sure. The package will be uploaded later this afternoon. For the few of us FS9'ers still out there I assure you this will be one wonderful Christmas present. Please check the library this afternoon. Its 4:24am where I am and I am flap out pooped. 😉 Mitch

Hi Since days ago in my FS9 kneeboard there isn't any kind of information. No checklists, no references, no briefings, nothing. After search in the forum I've read some information related to a compatibility problem with internet explorer (one example in this post). They suggest, as solution, uninstall ie 11 to a previous version 8, but I think it's a extreme solution. I would appreciate if someone can confirm this compatibilty problem with newer iexplorers and the kneeboard before to start to think about reinstall my FS9 copy. My specs are: W7 64bits + ie11 (although my main browser is firefox) + FS9.1 Regards

Hi Folks, Try as I might I cannot get the FSRealWX lite program to actually update the weather in FS9. All appears to download correctly and I have confirmed that the METARS I am getting are accurate and up to date. But none of the buttons for writing the wx to the sim do anything at all! Strangely though the "Clear WX" button does work. This is the VATSIM download, as the NOAA option just hangs. I am not getting any upper winds either, despite ticking the relevant check box. I have tried several older version of the program and on several computer too, all with the same effect. Nothing! (I have version 1.07.1522.) The PC I wish to use this on runs XP, so I …

I have installed many WOAI Traffic but they don't have contrails! How I can make them work normaly?

Hey guys, I am searching for the photoreal scenery of Rhodes by Korkidas Makis. The file was hosted on the hellenic VATSIM page, but is no longer available. The file name should be "rodos_photoreal.rar". Maybe someone of you still has it and can send it over to me. Thanks!
