The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

Hi, I can't see anything in the ttools forum so perhaps i can find it here,i am using 2004, I have put in an aircraft to perform touch and go's it is flying ok but i can't get it to fly higher than twelve hundred feet , it says in the tutorial ttools by Lee Swordy under the section for touch and go's [page19] that circuits are performed at the pattern altitude as specified in the airport facility data, Where can i find this facility data and can i change the altitude in it say with notebook? Would appreciate any help, Thanks.

Dear All,I have been conducting some flights in the from Nashville to Phoenix and Los Angeles, and I don't receive any signals for the NAV radios until I reach California.Has anyone an idea what has caused this, and what I need to do to fix it?Best regards,Peter Keenan

After I re-start the engines of my Perfect Flight L10-11 ( after using AES for example ) the right engine has little power which means the aircraft goes in circles when I increase power to move the aircraft.As I am still learning has anyone the answer to my problem so that I can taxi in a straight line.

HI,Look here: http://www.vrsimulations.com . Four years of development and you can believe it. What a VC!Now I have to have a little chat with the wife ;) Hugo.

When I Double click on the FS2004 Short cut it comes up with the splash screen of the DC3 and I wait ages until I go CTRL+ALT+DEL and then it comes up with FS9 not Responding I've used Reg tools, System Restore and neither of these work Please help because I really want to go back on.

Hello all,For those interested in beta testing the FS2004 Hawker Sea Hawk I've been working on, well, I finally have got my act together with an FGA.6 now available for download here at 24MB: http://www.nazcastudios.com/sea-hawk/. The model is a 'clean' config FGA.6, WV908 in the Royal Navy Historic Flight colours. The readme file contains important notes and the beta objective, and please post your feedback on this thread.The model uses the Dave Garwood Hunter gauges (with permission) so you must have them installed to see the 2D panel correctly. I will try and get these packaged with the main zip file shortly.Remember, this is still beta, and there are a few cosmetic fe…

Hi all, I installed a couple of addons, airplanes and scenery, but for some reason, I cannot choose to land 'ILS approach' through the ATC. I only get the Visual Approach Runway X option.This problem only happens on the addon scenery airport. I did 'add scenery' thing in FS9 already. What else am I missing? Can I download an original copy of these ILS information or something?

Can anyone tell me what the 1.6 patch (dated 11/04 for FS2004 and 11/05 for FSX) fixes and can this be used on CD Version of this product. When you try to obtain the info at the Wilco site it leads to the Feelthere bulletin board which won't allow me in. I tried to register at Feelthere (before) but never received any confirmation to my request.Any help on this matter would be greatly appreciated...Darryl

I have been trying for many months to get the autoland gauge to work with the Fiftynorth 737 series.The planes always land heavy or nose first and seem to have a problem with the engines surgeing at low speed.Does anyone know how to fix this problem.Mark

Right now i have wondered why some payware/freeware packages have a visual moving nose wheel that turns left & right with a simple pull in either direction on my joystick..e.g PMDG, POSKY, IFDG all turn with what ever you do on the joystick and then other packages like...e.g Overland, CLS & Level D 767 fail to do the same with out using the tail rudder on the keyboard so in other words the nose wheel remains forward even tho the plane is turning!!!Is there a way i can programme these few models to have the same system that PMDG etc run on in order to have the nose wheels turn with the movement of the joystick rather than the tail rudder?!?!?I have already toggled …

I was wondering if anyone made a van / airport vehicle model in which you can drive around an airport with? I sometimes would like to be an observer on the ground watching AI planes take off.Also, was there ever an r/c airplane model in which you can fly around with and has r/c airplane flight characteristics?Pardon my nonsense.

I have a big problem now, my FS9 crashes to Desktop at the end of each flight it just turns on a black screen (sound still works) and sudenly shuts down. I noticed that the problem started when I intstalled activesky, but now that I have uninstalled it, it continues doing it, sometimes right after landing, or sometimes at the gate, I dont know if any of you have the same problem, or anyone knows the solution for this problem, I will apricciate any help whatsoever,ThanksPC Specs:Dell Laptop Inspiron 1721Windows XP HomeAMD Athlon 64X2 1.80 ghz Dual processorATI Radeon X1270 256mb Video Card2GB RAM memoryHD 160 GBFlight Simulator 9/2004 9.1 Updated

Hi AllI have installed the Pushback Utility as per instructions and when I click on the downwood arrow that I placed on the panel it opens the Flight engineers panel and the pushback utillity together. I need someone to tell my how to get the icon to just open the pushback utility?? The Aircraft is a CLS Payware DC10. I can send screenshots of it all if needed. I picture being worth a thousand words as they say (smile). Hope someone can dig me out of this one lol. Thenks in advance....JohnPS: By the way the same thing happens if I click on th FE's icon too.

Since installed Flight Deck 5 i now keep getting this error.... "Microsoft visual C++ runtime, error R6025... pure virtual function call!!" I'm not sure if it is related to Flight Deck 5 as it happens even when i'm flying somewhere else as well. I sent an e'mail to abacus telling them of my problem and they replied with a google search link to microsoft, which i had already done, telling me there had been a programing fault with visual C++ done at the compiling stage....that was no help to me!!! This error only happens when using FS9, so I am no nearer to finding a solution to my problem. Has any one else come across this error and found a fix or do i uninstall flight de…

HiI suddenly got a strange problem. Some of the textures are not read properly. It happens to some af the airport textures and the ground textures.The problem seems to occour when going from day to night. In daytime its ok (if I start in daylight)As you can see on the two pictures some of the textures are the way the should be, some not.Attachment 1 shows how it should be, and 2 skows the problemAll help wpuld be appreciatedthanks

I'd like to be able to go in and widen all the taxiways. Is there a way to do it like in one shot, rather than clicking on each taxiway then changing with width in the 'properties'? A lot of the taxiways are too narrow for widebody aircraft it can be difficult when making a turn because if you roll off the taxiway you really have to gun it to get going again. I guess because of the texture difference between 'ground' and 'tarmac'. It could be pretty cumbersome to increase all the taxiways at say LFPG or EGLL and was just hoping for an easier way. I'm using AFX. Thanks.

I fly FS 2004 and I have a fairly new rig with an Nvidia GTX 280 GPU and a quad core CPU. Most of my settings are maxed out and things look great. However when I am flying along, scenery objects (like trees, houses, etc) just seem to pop into view rather than just being there. Any recommended modifications to make in the FS9.cfg file or video card settings to improve the visuals so this does not happen? I have tried several but not much improvement. Thanks, Al

Hi,since yesterday, my FS9 installation stopped working overnight.I don't know why and have no idea. Even reinstalling the FS9 does NOT solve the problem.Everytime I start fs9.exe, the startup screen pops up, CPU usage goes to 100% and nothing more happens.The systems is still usable, it's only FS9 that freezes.Any ideas? As I wrote, uninstall - reboot - install does NOT solve the problem.XP SP3 with 3.0GhZ and 2GB RAM. worked properly for 1 year.I have no idea at which point SP3 was installed. Could that be the problem?Best regards,Phillip

Hi,http://www.fs-proteam.com/news.html?op=one&id=69Cheers.

Hi folks- was wondering if someone might be able to help me here with a scenery I downloaded from Flightsim.dot.com--(piratepk.zip) I've downloaded a scenery called Pirate Island, as it looked quite interesting and fun to try. Unfortunately, I can't locate the darn thing. Within the zip file, the author included a great little map of the Carribean and surrounding areas, but he didn't point out where the scenery is located in relation to the map.In the readme, this scenery is referred to as---VFTLM003 - Eagles' Pirate Island Scenery package--.It doesn't contain an airport of any kind if I understand correctly, just a neat little island paradise that can be explored by boat…
