The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

I have downloaded a batch of AI flightplans from the library. Many of them are not in the MRAI installer format, but they have all the three .txt files required.I am sure there is some application that quickly transforms them into the format that will then work with the MRAI installer. Can somebody point me in the right direction? I prefer installing the plans with the MRAI installer as it makes it easier to install new repaints.ThanksChris

I might have missed the news, but what has happened to Airliner XP? The content is off their website and there is no forwarding.Did they merge with AirSimmer (both are supported by Flight1)?Menno

Firstly, what has happened to the FS Commander support forum: the link on the product page leads to another page where it says "What you are looking for is not here".After replacing my laptop and re-creating my network all the sharing is fine - I have ActiveSky networked and sending info to the Server - and I have installed FSC v8.3 standalone. When I try to run the DBase for the first time it doesnt show me the Server in the dropdown box of path choices, only the Client.FS9 updated on XP Sp1.

HII installed iFly 747-400, worked great. I wanted to clean up my hard drive and start from scratch, so I formated. Put everything back on. Installed FS2004, reinstalled iFly. Didn't do anything different. Now when I go through the start up, I get to the point to start the engines and the iecas shows no fuel flow to the engines so when I pull the knobs to start, they will not. If I press ctrl-E the engines spool up and start 1,2,3,4 then the iecas shows the fuel flow with green lines. Before the format the green fuel flow lines were there without having to press ctrl-E. Any ideas as to what settings I am not doing. If you need more info please just ask and I will provide …

What I mean is, when I download the weather via FS option, does FE display clouds/sky/etc corresponding to the atual wx I just downloaded? How do you know if it's working and not the default FS cloud display? Just that it doesn't mention anything about that in the manual with options. Only that you can create you won or assign random wx which is a litte strange. I had active sky but un-installed that because the wx was never accurate and was hoping that FE would or could somehow operate along with FS wx. Otherwise there's another junk payware product down the drain!Jon.

I'm having trouble engaging the autopilot after take-off on the CaptainSim 757. I hit the button to engage autopilot and it flashes in the airspeed LCD then disappears, never engaging. Can anyone help me?

I hope the admins do not consider this as a hardware post.Next week i shall get a new rig. Hence my question: what is the best way to transfer FS9 from my old system to the new one. I have collected lots and lots of addons, freeware and payware over the past few years and want to avaoid to go throught the installing procedures again. For freeware this would be a to big a problem, but for payware with all the registration and license huzzle...Maybe a stupid idea: will it work if I just tranfer the hard drive from my old system to the new one? In my old sys I only had 1 HD, so I assume everything necessary should be on it. And the HD would be compatible with the new system.…

Hi guys,In the past I used to simroutes or fsroute to convert my flightplans into the .PLN format. However I can't really use them any longer since they're stuck with Airacs from earlier cycles.Can anybody recommend a tool or website with exactly that function, but maybe with more recent Airacs? :)If it's good, it can be payware, too.Regards,

Hello fellasI know that this has been brought up repeatly and the topics have gotten long winded. So i needed to start my own thread to try hopefully to get to the bottom of it.System:Vista 64 UltimateIntel Duel Core 84004 gig Generic ram8800GT (Galaxy) 177.79 Beta Games:FS2004FSXCrysisArmaetc etcOk now to the prblem at hand. In the default profiles IE: all the games i own i have the option to OVERIDE AA except with FS2004 where i can only ENHANCE. And this is where OVERIDE is so important because it allows me to get rid of enhance which is useless especially with a 1680x150 resolution.Now have tried all many of ways to rectify the situation to GET Overide to work to the …

Hello Fellow Simmers, Does anyone know which FS9 disc holds the effects please? After unistalling FSX demo I have lost strobes and smoke and lightning are just white blocks on the screen! Most annoying but not so bad as to stop me flying...thank goodness..Many thanks, Stan HarveyEGPE

Hi everyone! :-wave I've got myself into a bit of a problem...my moon is playing up. When zoomed out, the moon is hidden by some weird and random tile. However, as I zoom in, the tile gradually fades, until I zoom out again. See screenshots below:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/191708.jpgZoomed out...http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/191709.jpg...and Zoomed inI fear it may have something to do with a balked defrag attempt. Using JkDefrag (Complete/NAME method), it took me 3 whole days (yes...72 hours) to get to the 90% point, and I was leaving the house for a week, so I had to stop it. According to the developer it's safe to do that... :-roll However, even before the…

Hello all,I recently made some minor changes to my Wilco E-Jets aircraft config files for both the E170 and E190. The only items that I changed were some atc airline names and atc flight numbers. The problem now is when I go to the aircraft selection list, the E190 doesn't show up anymore but the E170 still does. I have looked over both config files over and over and cannot figure out why the E190 has disappeared from the list. Has anyone else experienced this problem or does anyone have any ideas as to what might be wrong?Thanks,Scott.

Hello fellow simmers,Does anyone have a clue of what this beam/line is? I have never seen this before in FS. This is the Holger Dietrich EDDN freeware scenery (very good BTW), it's first time I'm using it.It appeared after vacating the active and turning to the apron and it stayed there, on my left.Any ideas? TIA http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/191659.jpg

hello to all! when i start FS9 i get a message that some aircraft or software was unable to load,but i can click O.K. and FS9 starts.what's not loading is FDSConnection.dll and FSUIPC.dll.i have had these in my FS9 modules folder for many months with no problems,until now.also, once FS9 is running and i press the ALT key to bring up the toolbar,FSUIPC no longer shows up under modules,although my FLYBY still shows up under modules.one other thing i notice is that all my other .dll's in my FS9 modules folder have a series of numbers like 3.7.0.2 under the name of the .dll and under these numbers are the words "microsoft flight simulator".my FDSC and FSUIPC .dll's used to ha…

Hi, after flying the PMDG 747 for a good half year, I've decided I would like to try something different. I am looking for a business jet (payware) with a long range- at least 4000 nm. I know Eaglesoft has a Citation X, but it can barely do yyz-lhr, so I would like something different. Gulfstream makes nice airplanes, but I don't believe there are any for fs9? Hence, can somebody recommend a solid payware business jet for fs9? Thank you,Igor.

Hi Guys:I've been reading with interest the ability to merge the PSS VC (I don't care about the 2D) into the POSKY 777. For anyone that has done it is *everything* functional? For instance were you able to merge the FMC into the POSKY VC? What works and what doesnt?Your help would be greatly appreciated.Warm regards,Mike T.
