The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

Okay i have just started a flight at Gatwick in my Overland A330-300, Now instantly i had no textures, every thing inside the cockpit on this particular model was Grey, I tested my other A330-200 and all was fine with it no grey textures, then about 2mins in FS9 Crashed. I have started it again and picked another aircraft and airport and once in the air, things got very jumpy and i noticed textures below were messed up (Vienna)I have looked at the Aircraft.CFG settings for the A330-300 and all seems to be in order. I have had no problems ever and i am quite a good user when it comes to A/C Cfg settings and spotting problems but i really cant figure out why all of a sudden…

Hi.I was just wondering.Some add-on scenery makers add a land-class file to the scenery as well, so you have the main scenery and a land-class scenery as well.Can anyone tell me please what this is, and what would happen if you disable itThanks for any info.

Has anyone tried Flight Sim Tools Contrails Pro?In the demo version the effects seem pretty good but I'm finding it a real frame rate killer - most times my FS9 system runs at 30fps but turning on Contrails drops that to around 16fps!And that's with traffic at 33%.

I have been using Simroutes.com for some time, but am not able to get the flight plans to load in FS9.After creating the flight plan. I save print a copy, then would select FS9 from the drop down menu and choose the button to create the *.pln file for FS9.Then I load up FS and go to the flight planner. I click Load, select the flight plan file, and click Open. ...Nothing happens after this. The flight plan doesn't show up in the flight planner. After this I usually just go back to FS's default route.How do I get the Simroute *.pln files to load into FS9?

Hi everyone,I'm looking for the Air Canada texture for PSS' good old B773ER. It looks like this once was a user edit, but since PSS closed its doors, AVSIM library is down and Xsimulate isn't available anymore as well (oh wow, sounds like times are getting tough for us flightsimmers!), I can't find it. Of course I looked on flightsim.com and just about anywhere else, but I couldn't find it.So if someone has these textures, might he/she be so kind to send them to me (or post a link where I could get them)?E-Mail address: tismeyerswissonline.ch (where the smiley's the @)Thank you very much and kind regards from Switzerland,Tis

I'm outta ideas.I having problems with FS2004 when I open my kneeboard during flight and try to scroll the side bar with the up/down arrows on the kneeboard the screen goes black then I eventually get the old send/dont send msg, BUT if I use my mouse wheel to scroll it works with no problems. I was just gonna live with that issue but I found a simular problem with a aircraft.I just reinstalled Flight 1's ATR-72 and I just noticed a simular problem when I enter flight info into the FMC, when I press the side buttons on the FMC it does the same thing, but any other panel on the A/C I dont have that problem, nor any other A/C I have that problem eit…

Does anyone know of urban cities you can add on into Flight Simulator?

Hi folks,I have a recent problem with exteme blurries by the time I get near my destination airport. It's so bad that it fails to render the airport properly. I think this is due to ACARS, as it seems to use a lot of resources - the combination of PMDG 737, Megacenery SoCal and NorCal along with ACARS for the flight just ended really killed Mach1's KOAK. Yesterday, I had a problem with flying into KBUR (w/Megascenery SoCal, of course, and custom KBUR).My rig is a custom built system, quad core, with 1GB NVidia GEForce 8500 TG, 4GB RAM, and resolution set at 1280x1024x32.Flights seem to be ok without running ACARS....more testing to follow....any ideas??Thanks,Jim

Hi,I'm using FS2004 with Windows XP and a Sidewinder joystick but I've noticed I'm having rudder trouble, These are the things I've done and checked below.I've searched and read various messages on the forum and have come up with a few ideas or suggestions of what could have caused it I think..... anybody give me advice or thoughts on these. I realise there has been loads of posting regarding this subject but kind of thought it's best to maybe start a new topic even though you shouldn't....1) I've checked the autorudder in realism settings is checked with tick and it is.2) Have checked an option in PMDG section to do with Rudder and as said it shouldn't be checked3) The r…

I was loading my FS9 at Seattle and on the default Cessna I noticed the compass and DG heading on the Runway 34R showed 360. The actual heading of course is 340. Am I indicating true headings not magnetic and if so how do I change it? :(

Tow times in a row, one with the MADDOG2006, the other with the LDS 767. At two different places?I have FSUIPC disabling this though since I fly with RCv4.I checked I was OK with the RAM and page file...Anyone with any idea?ThanksGhiom

Just looking for some help. Installed Carenado's 210 into FS9. The aircraft shows up in the sim and flys great. But when I try to find the folder for the 210 in the FS9 aircraft folder it is not there. I am using Vista Home Premium and have unchecked hidden folders. If anyone has any ideas please let me know.Dave.

I like to fly in the Hong Kong area. I have 3 sceneries that are causing problems: 9D Kai tak, Thomas Kwongs VHHH, and JAT ZGGG (new).First, after combining the VHHX and VHHH sceneries, all is well, but there is no Glideslope at the CLK.But worse, when I fly into HKG from europe or China, or when I approach either Guangzhou airport, FS just crashes and I get the error report box. I asked for more details and it said the problems were in the FS9.cfg, FS9.exe and scenery.cfg.Can anyonne guess what is wrong?Thanks

Is it true?At least to try I should know if I need to keep the ione texture in the scenery folder or the one in the main texture folder?What is everyone's feedback on that?Note: I have already checked all my landlass and waterclass files locations.ThanksGhiom

Might sound a silly question, but I'm wondering if there is a way to increase the joystick movement for any given control input. Seems to be typical of MSFS that it takes tiny little movements of the joystick when flying which I hate. Sometimes its too easy to overcorrect. I use a logitech Ex3D Pro. It's calibrated fine. Just would rather pull it back halfway for a given control input then 2mm if that makes sence.Any help appreciated.

Hi... Just installed FSPassengers (again). I
