    I'm having a hard time getting in contact with this site. Anything going on that anyone knows about as to why I can not use their auto email service to retrieve my password for my account with them? This was posted in the FSX forum and a reply stated I should post here because they might be out of business and they only did products up to FS9.

  5. Posted in another AVSIM area and thought I would post here as well. I originally had an ATI X 600 video card and replaced it with an ATI X850. I removed all former X600 drivers and associated Catalyst, and upgraded drivers, Catalyst, etc. for the X850. Looked in the FS9 config and I had lines of code in config for both the X600 and the X850. Removed the lines of code for the X600 and also added some lines associated with recommended FS9 tweaks at the same time, i.e. I added/revised for the following just below SOUND_QUALITY=4 (and then saved the changes when complete):(DISPLAY.Device.RADEON X850 Series.0)Mode=1280x1024x32TriLinear=1(DISPLAY)UPPER_FRAMERATE_LIMIT=25TEXTURE…

  6. I installed the plain vanilla GE (not the PRO edition) V1.08 some time ago but am not sure if it works as it should. The world certainly looks great by day and night on my system but when I click on the GE icon on my desktop, there are two check boxes for GE global textures by day and by night. It says to check them if I want the textures to be active. I can't honestly tell if there is any diff whether the boxes are checked or not and am not sure if I really need to do so anyway. If the stuff is already installed--and I saw it being installed with progress bars--surely GE is already in the sim and being used every time I boot up FS2004, no?Appreciate any guidance/clar…

  11. This sim will do more for your sense of flight control than ANYTHING I have ever had the sheer fun to fly, let alone the photo-real scenery. It will really enhance your sense of flight within FS9/FSX!Want to truly feel the dynamics and control of flight? Just download this fully functioning R/C (Radio Controlled) flight simulator, only 80 megs and have a BLAST!You use the arrow keys in place of your Radio Controller. Explore all the drop-down menus and everything is explained as well as all keyboard command flight controls. There are a ton of options even in this demo.An early tip: If you crash your R/C plane or helicopter (and YOU WILL at first, LOLOLOL) just press the …

    I just arrived home yesterday after 10 weeks patrolling up and down a line somewhere off the Falkland Islands.... I've just had a brief skim read of the forum posts over the last 10 weeks, and I see there has been something of a fuss over the FT/Wilco Airbus, and that the Airliner XP addon will be an Airbus. Veeeeewy intewesting!Now, I have 3 month's wages sitting untouched in my bank account and I feel the urge to treat myself to whatever is the latest and greatest addon.So, what did I miss? Any recommendations for good stuff released since mid January?Cheers!

    Hi,I've been adding some of the great FS9 airports found in the library. Today, I had to delete one because I either was missing some install files or installed them wrong. Anyway, now on the opening FS9 splashscreen I get a message that says I have an error in Scenery cfg area 38 and then gives the full path: fs9/addon scenery/k---. Area 38 in the scenery config file just says addon scenery and nothing about the individual airport.So can I just delete Area 38 or will that delete all my add-on airports. Any help or suggestions to get rid of this error message are and will be appreciated.Thanks!Jeb

    Hey guys, I'm doing some flights with an Alaska 737-200 using the CIVA-INS 1.40 around some of the small airports, commercial bush flying. I was wondering that while on the ground at these airports, before flying to the next one, is it better to find a VOR near the airport (if there is one) to perform a DME update for the INS, or is it better to shut it down and realign it if I have time? I am following published Alaska flight schedules, so I usually have time, about 30 minutes on the ground at a time.Also, if I shouldn't DME update, I can assume DME update is only good for when I am in the air? And is DME updating efficient or necessary on short legs?Thanks in advance.

I've attached a screenie, but not too sure if it will come out very well.Can anybody help me please?!?!Cheers
