    I can never remember and now I can't find the thread from a couple of years ago, but should the slider be moved to the "Performance" end or toward "Quality" in ATIs CCC? Thanks guys.

    Anybody have any experience taking ch yoke apart? I need to replace the nuts that are stripped which hold the unit to the desk. I have looked at the wierd slotted heads on the screws and so far have not dared to try it. Maybe there is another way to secure it but I haven't come up with any ideas yet. Suggestions?Don

    I have flown and enjoyed FS9 since it was first released. I recently re-installed it on my new computer and set up several AI traffic files. Upon landing this evening, I noticed that the flashing beacons on the AI aircraft waiting for take off all flash at the same time. I recall reading a post on AVSIM a long time ago about modifying an effects file or config file to get the flashing beacons on the AI aircraft to flash at different rates. Hope I'm not imagining that. If someone can steer me in the right direction I would be most grateful! Thanks in advance!

  7. Am reinstalling fs9 following a major Windows XP failure but on reinstalling The Very Singapore (Samsoft) I find that there is a problem with the coastline around Singapore, with some of the autogen buildings of the city now being off the coast in the sea.

    Hi, it appears that with my new joystick plugged in, FS9.exe will not go away, in other words, it stays visible in the Task Manager after having closed FS9 normally. With the new joystick not plugged in, no problem. I just got the Logitech Force 3D Pro, working fine so far, except for this issue.By the way, does anyone know how I can launch the Logitech Gaming Software/Logitech Profiler straight to the system tray? The "/noui" trick doesn't seem to work, even though Logitech put that behind the startup item...

Until REX2004, the sky never looked as real-to-life as it does now. Cloud scape is simply amazing to pass through. I had nothing like this until I dropped the coin for REX2004. The sky palette with my choice of City tinged with pollution..is verbatim to what you actually do see. Again, simply amazing in what all the above products has done to make things for all intense and purposes...mimicking real life aviation.You run the programs, and find that you have alr…

    Hello!So, I have pretty much always flown Airbuses since I am a big fan. However, to expand my basic knowledge, I wanted to try a Boeing for a change. So I went ahead and got 757-200 from PSS. Loving the plane, however one major issue that I encountered. After ATC has lined me up to intercept the Localizer to 16R at KSEA. To my surprise, I could not find the dang NAV frequency at first, then I realized it was directly input through the FMC. Ok, so I have my ILS runway freq. in as well as my Course. but now on the EADI I HAD NO LOCALIZER NEEDLE ! mhmh, I was able to see the glideslope/localizer points, but no moving needle. So I had to line up and land manually. Also, one…

    I have been running FS9 on windows 7 for about a month now and have come accross this issue.When I am in 2d cockpit view, if i left-click the mouse anywhere on the screen, any taxi-ing a/c; or dynamic scenery;or cockpit instruments will momentarily stutter (less than a second), then carry on as normal. But there seems to be a cumulative affect here, because if I keep on doing it eventually the screen will freeze completely and I have to shut FS9 down. Just setting an aircraft up for flight (resizing the throttle quadrant;moving the atc window to the top of the screen; using the FMC) can cause the screen to freeze completely.While this stuttering/eventual freeze is occurin…

    Welcome!I have felt like flying a bit around Spain lately. I decided to start with Madrid, as there is a very nice Barajas scenery by Aerosoft (SimWings). As I always appreciate nice visuals during my departures and approaches, I thought I would get some nice landscape of Madrid.There is a huge freeware addon of VFR Madrid (available as 'vfr-mad.zip' at Flightsim). But pure photoscenery never appeals to me unless it has some nice autogen on it. So, voilla, there is another free addon of Madrid autogen called Real Spain (available as 'REAL-SPAIN VFR Madrid Autogen beta3.rar' at vfrflightsimulator.blogspot.com). After installing both addons (dropping the autogen files into …
