The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

Hi There,I have added lately VTBS, and it is working very good, except when I try to run the AISmooth as well FS AI separation either one crash when I am at that airport only.I know that this airport was not in the original data, however I add it over the data base. BTW I have landed many times thinking that the AIsmooth will added it to it's own data base, with no luck still.Is there a way to solve this issues. as all the AI now kind of get crumbled together.Any help would be much appreciated.RegardsHani

Hello I have the Wilco Deluxe package and I have made my own BMP 32Bit Textures on Photoshop for my Virtual Airline in FS2004. Unfortunately, I get a Crash To Desktop crash. I have installed Microsoft Visual C++2005 and C++2008, I have also followed steps on how to make FS9 folder have the admin permissions. Please help since i really dont know whats the problem and I tried registering on Wilco forums, but didnt get confirmation e-mail.Thank you and regards.P.S - I am using Vista, if you need I can show / upload the textures.

Hi there.I wonder if there are (I know there are) any landclass add-ons that cover the whole FS9 world that will transform it into a more realistic world that approaches the quality of UTX+GEX+Scenary Tech addons for FSX. I don't expect them to provide the same level of realism, only a realistically equivalent proportional experience for FS9.Thanks in advance for your advice.

I read up that to get the maddog pro (2008) to work with active camera in the VC I have to edit the panel.cfg and remove zorder lines from each entry but I load up (not with the setup program) the sim and I still cant use active cam.I can move switches but only ones that have on or off positions not rotory ones like the altimeter/Vertical speed and so on.Its a shame because I got the maddog over the Fokker70/100 because of the VC and more detailed systems but I have to keep going back to the 2D view to set switches.I though about maybe Walk&Follow but not if I end up with the same problem.Anyone got any advice?PS Im only posting here because I cant post on the maddog …

Is there a way I can get the AI traffic to fly the River Visual Rwy 19 at KDCA? Currently they all a straight in approach to this runway. Something maybe I can edit in AFCAD? The approach requires inbound traffic to follow the potomac river weaving along to the runway with a sharp turn just before touchdown. If possible I'd like to get them to fly over specific points along the approach as well. I'm willing to spend some time on making this work if it's feasible. Maybe someone can point me in a direction towards a tutorial or details in how this is accomplished. I know that FlyTampa did something similar with VHHX, I just don't know if that was in the coding or wha…

I dont know, but I cant find any place to by the SibWing SAAB Safir for fs9 anymore. (?)Their website only offers the FSX version. (as far as I can see...) And at JustFlight

Hey guys! Can anyone help me? I'm using FSBuild for FS2004 and it creates the rout and everything..but as soon as I change the setting so my plane starts of in the Gate, I can't get the clearance from the Tower..It just says contact Ground..HELP!? What should I do that it will let me do that...

Hi all,I'm hoping someone can shed light on what is causing an annoying issue in FS9. It seems some painter's AI planes cause the screen to freeze for just a second or "jump". It happens when I'm in outside view panning around my aircraft. When the offending paint starts to come into view, the screen does the stutter, jump thing. Very annoying. Does this have something to do with mips? I have an nVidia 9800GTX with AA and AS turned on in nHancer and mips are set to 4 in the video settings of the game. It only seems to happen with certain painters. I've never had any problems with paints from Brian M, Dave W, Heiko, Juergen, Holger (2007 and newer paints), Boris, Billy R, …

Hi, I don't want to be accused of double-posting, but I am not sure that the CTD forum is as active as this one, and I haven't had any replies to my question there as yet. The post is at th URL below - if anyone who looks at this forum but may not ever browse the CTD pages has any ideas, I'd be very interested to hear! (Any replies to the CTD forum, please, or I will be accused of double-posting!) :-)http://forums1.avsim.net/index.php?showtop...p;#entry1672593Many thanks,Martin

I notice, flying from Chennai (VOMM), ATC is clearing AI a/c to 'VOHS' instead of 'Hyderabad' (Rajiv Gandhi International). Not a huge annoyance I suppose, but I'd like to know how to fix it. The name 'Hyderabad' exists in EditVoicePack, and it is filled in correctly in the Airport Properties of the AFCAD, so I am not sure what to do. Why is ATC using the ICAO? Thanks for any help.Martin

For some reason I get the message "C:.......Flight Simulator 9/ fs9.exe - Runtime error R6025 - Pure virtual function call" every time I start a flight from KSNA, following which I have to exit fs9. This seems to happen a few miles north of KSNA in the Anaheim area, but if I start a flight at any other airport in that region there is no problem (only from KSNA). I have Shez's KSNA installed with the available service pack, etc but it still happens. Uninstalling KSNA doesn't make any difference - I still get the message a few miles north of KSNA if I start the flight there. Flew from KSNA south to the Mexico (Tijuana) today, however and it didn't happen! Am stumped and it …

It has been released, and I wondered if any buyers could comment on how it is. How is it compared to the Captain Sim and Level-D 767 aircraft? I know the CLS767 is there only for FS9 right now, and the CS767 is only for FSX. Still, people that happen to have them both, what is your opinion on the CLS?

Hello, I am trying to locate the texture file for the AS L1011_500 CL2 in RAF Grey ZD951 ,216 Sq Brize Norton by John Shaw, all the textures for this aircraft in RAF colors were in the Library here but have now gone, i have searched all round but up until now i have had no luck, I have two textures ZE 704 and ZE 706 in the early color schemes which i had backed up, if anyone can help i would be grateful, and if someone is looking for these early textures for the RAF Tristar send me a PM, Cheers, Roger.

HiIs it possible to merge VASFMC in to Wilco A320?If possible, will I have improvement in FMS, because Wilco FMS does not work as it should.What about managed and selected mode with VASFMC?If somebody have information, please share.I would like to fly Airbus again, and who knows when Airsimmer Advanced will be available.Wilco Airbus is unflyable for me.ThanksEdin

I have a scenery crash at LFNC and surrounding area and need help identifying the file causing the crash.The crash only happens in daylight, if I set FS to night the crash does not happen.I have a lot of 3rd party scenery and have disabled it in sections to try to narrow down the culprit but I still get the crash.I thought FS9\scenery\Eurw\scenery\AP949160 was the culprit but with that renamed I still get the crash.Can anyone offer any help, short of a full FS reinstall?TIA

So here are my thoughts for the day. Please feel free to comment as you like, just no personal attacks please!Just some food for conversation on the FS9 sales discussion this is not an FS9 V FSX conversation!I hear a lot of talk lately about how FS9 releases are not selling at a pace that warrants the continued development of FS9 products. Thank goodness for those developers who have not left us yet but even that number seems to be dwindling rapidly and to some degree I challenge the validity of the numbers behind it. Not the numbers themselves but the reasoning behind them. I put the owness on the developers, not us. Here is my .25 as to why developers haven't seen …

I downloaded an autogen replacement for FS9 from AVSIM (or maybe flightsim.com), and it was AWESOME!!!!, it gave so much more depth to the autogen, but now I cannot find it ANYWHERE, anyone have any ideas, been searching for hours.

I wonder if anybody on this forum has ever seen the Loch Ness monster in FS9? I have scanned the area twice. However the second time I was flying a F-16 so I guess maybe I scared it away lol!:-lol Just wondering though.

Every single time I fly the Wilco 737s, I get the above FMC message soon after starting my descent. Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong and how to correct this in my flight planning? As it's a long holiday weekend and I doubt I can get any assistance from their forums, and this has been going on for a while now I was wondering if anyone here would tell me. I've done a search here and on GOOGLE and can't quite make out how it applies or how to fix it in the addon A/C I'm flying.This is the only A/C I ever see this in.Thank you in advance folks!

HEllo there..I read some posts here covering some issues I want tto ask you about.First of all night is too light in FS9. Can it be more darker? And when I fly at night I see the water blue, almost light blue... Can I change that?Is there an addon?I use Windows Vista..Thanx for some replies.

Hi all, I did try a couple of searches in this forum on this subject, so please forgive me if my question has been anwered in the past. During my landings with the LevelD767 and the PMDG 737s, I often like to use the button assigned on my CH yoke for the "view cycle" function, so that I can move from the virtual cockpit view to an external view shortly before touchdown, just in time to catch that cool view of my flare, and the tires smoking on impact with the tarmac.To navigate through to that external aircraft view though, the FS9 view sequence steps from the 2D to the virtual cockpit, followed by the tower view, then what looks like a rabbits's eye view of a briar pat…

Hi all, anyone know where I can D/L the Fokker jet F28 base file and update?Project Fokker sends you to Avsim file library but its a dud file untill the boys are done.Thanks to all the guys spending their hours sorting the server problem.Us simmers appreciate it.regards,

Hi!Have most of the latest WOAI airlines installed on fs9. However, now when I go to expert mode on the WOAI window to delete an older version of an airline and add the newest update, only the most recently installed airlines (12 in total) show up. All of the WOAI aircraft are still present however when I use fs9 and the WOAI files are all present in ....flight simulator 9/scenery/world/scenery! Has anyone had a similar experience of airlines disappearing from expert mode and how do I get them back so that I can delete old versions and update if required?Thanks,BillWindows XP Pro SP2Intel Core 2 Duo E6850 3.0Ghz CPUArctic Cool 7 ProASUS P5N-E-SLI MOtherboard2GB Corsair 80…
