The FS2004 (FS9) Forum

Does anyone have an updated afcad2 file for the great LLBG 2006 scenery here in the library? The afcad that it comes with is lacking a lot of parking spots, especially cargo and general aviation. Just wondering if someone has created an updated one with more spots, realistic codes, etc.Thanks!

I must be able to count on one hand the fligths I have completed sucessfuly without one problem or another with FS9. Ok I know it's a hugely complex program, especially with add-ons. Ok to the point and the specifics: I fly from Kuwait to Hong Kong and I get over Bangladesh and I get the black screen of death with a Util.dll error reported.As far as I am aware. i have no add-on scenery for Bangladesh so why is this happening, over the same point in the flight?I have just re-installed the fs9 update although it still says its version 9 and yet it said inthe update installation that it was 'sucessfully updated".Please someone help.I have done the usual: checked for duplicat…

Hi!Does anyone know if there is perhaps some software available which allows you to make an aircraft-like intercom via your soundcard? I've currently set my system so that I have VATSIM ATC sound coming separately to the headset and have un-muted the Microphone playback so I hear my own voice when I speak. I can also connect two headsets with an input separator so it's kind of like an intercom. However, there's always some noise from the MIC which disturbs and I'd like to have it automatically cut out when I'm not talking, just like real intercom does. Is there some solution for this?Thanks!

What exactly in fs tells the program when and where to load seasonal textures such as green lush textures for summer? Today I flew out of kden and it looked like southwest florida there, why were lush green summer textures loaded there? I mean gosh, even in summer denver isnt supposed to be that green. I have fs genesis, utusa and ge pro, could there be a conflict with these?

I'm flying POSKY's 757 with the Level-D 767 panel and CH Flightsim Yoke. For some reason if I give it a bit of Nose up trim, the trim will go all the way and I cant get it back down. I've alternated between other aircraft and the problem doesn't happen. I suspected the button assignments on the yoke but they work fine with any other aircraft. any ideas??

Can someone recommend a good screen shooter?Thanks,scott

I don't know if you are flying the EXCELENT freeware One-Eleven from David Maltby (http://www.dmflightsim.co.uk/).I followed the tutorial (available in David's website), but there's one think that seems not to work as explained. In the beginning of the checklist, just after the "battery on", we have to put the APU Generator Control in the Tripped position:http://www.dmflightsim.co.uk/html/FLYING%2...GEN_CONTROL.jpgBut when I try to do this, the switch just came back to the "normal" position and the "GEN FAIL" lights never extinguishes. I'm doing anything wrong? Is that normal?Another indicative that something's wrong is, if I ignore and continue with the checklist, after …

Wonder if anyone can help. A while back I had a CTD problem, and while searching for a cure, I read a "fix" that meant when I started FS it missed the opening screen and went straight to default flight. This hasn't been a major problem till now, as I can't access the start screen to enable new sceneries. Anyone know how to get back so my start screen kicks in.PS I can't remember what I did in the first place.Hope someone can helpThnksStephen

Greetings to all. I wish to write a brief editorial on my registration experience with the newly released Maddog 2006. I am an avid flight sim enthusiast who is very fond of the realism that the hobby has yielded over the past 3 yrs. There is little doubt in my mind that the developers behind Maddog 2006 have created a remarkably full featured product. With that in mind, I feel that it is important for people to be aware of the registration process the company has chosen to employ.Many within the simulation community have come to expect wrappers or embedded modules within FS to automate the activation process. Maddog 2006 includes no such automation and is dependent …

Hello Fellow Flight Simmers,I am in need of some help. I guess I'm having a "Senior Moment".I seem to have lost the landing and taxi light beam in FS9. Not only the third party aircraft no longer cast a light beam on the ground, but the default aircraft do not also. I noticed it as I was testing a new aircraft. At night with the landing switch on, yuo can see the lights on the wings, but no beam on the ground. At first I thought it was the aircraft itself, but when I switch to the default Baron, the same results were noticed. Does anyone have any Idea what's going on? I examined the display settings in FS9 and found no discrepencies.Thanks,

Hi,My name is Tom and I am new to the forum. I would like to say hello to everyone.I hope I'm in the correct forum for this question. I downloaded the Socata TBM 700A from the AVSIM library. I like the model and it seems to fly well. Something a newbie like me can handle. However, the download did not include the effects file that was referred to in the installation instructions.I downloaded the Socata several times thinking the files may have been corrupted during the download.Does anyone know how I can obtaint his file? I logged on to the forum referred to in the README file but I don't speak French and could not understand how to download any files.Any help will be gre…

As above, can I confirm something with anybody in the know. Does Activesky provide sky textures? And if so does GEpro? Reason I ask is that I'm running both and also Real env Pro. When I launch Gepro from a metar off activesky it will give me the option to install ground AND sky textures sutiable to the weather type. So if this does this will it overwrite any sky textures that I've installed from Real Env Pro? And while this is going on will Activesky be giving me sky textures as well?! as you can see.. I'm confused! I want to use Real env Pro sky textures so can somebody give me a pointer as to how to use all three programs but just use one texture?Many thanks in advance…

Hi All, I'm new to the forums, and found lots of help already without asking....but, i have a problem.I have downloaded and installed a new panel for the default 777. The new panel works well, and has no glitches. But, when I hold my tophat to look in any direction, I am getting the old window views still there. Does anyone know how to delete this so i only have the views from my new panel?Thanks!!

I am posting this to balance a lot of negativism about MSFSs, I have seen in these forums. I know that at age 59 my POV will be different from someone in their teens and twenties. So, please allow an old kid to relate a positive MSFS story.For several years now, I have been building a T-38 cockpit. I have recently returned to flight simming after a two year hiatus to remodel some bathrooms. I have a three 19" LCD monitor setup connected to a TH2Go, and consider this the way to go, for emersion.I am almost ready to start testing the pit

Well, my st. patty's celebrations have been relocated to my room. I just purchased the new maddog and took her around the pattern and I must say...very impressive...VERY impressive.

Hi AllDoes anyone have this package ? It seems to me as though it's a Fs2002 model updated for FS2004, so was wondering whether it isn't a little 'flimsy' by todays standards. It's still a fair wack at EUR 20.ThanksErich

Hi guys,Well this file looked pretty attractive for my sim so I downloaded it but when installing it tells me it didn't find FS on my system which is of course untrue. The thing is my laprop is partitionned into 2 disks, C and D and FD is in D:/program files not C:/Program files Could that be why I can't use it? I've tried installing the add on both in C and D to no avail, any help would be appreciated!William :)

I've read really good things about Radar Contact and downloaded their 400+ page manual. It is very instructive and helpful form someone who is just learning the world of IFR.But, after using Voice buddy, I also like the concept of actually talking to ATC ... hence VoxATC.Could I get opinions from users on these two products? Learning curve, support, upgrades, framerate hit (if any), helpfulness of forums, IFR/VFR, etc?

Hello to all virtual pilots As simple question how can I change (in the ATC) the names of the airliners to replace the funy names Soar, Pacifica etc with real airliners names such as British Airways, Air France etc.

Hi ! I got a real annoying problem. I just reinstalled FS9 then I go to load the game I get a loading screen and then just as the game is about to start it automaticly shutsdown !. No warning no nothing it happens every single time !.Any help apriciated !Kind Regards,Alexander

Windows XP finally decided to die on me so I had to reinstall.. I am using a ATI Radeon 9800 128MB card (don't laugh its still holding up!)Anyways most current drivers 6.14 DX is current. I am getting all these little white dots all over the ground, and on the aircraft, and I also get these textures that just fire up like jagged triangle shapes all the time.. something is obviously way wrong... I honestly forget all my settings from FS9 as well... I have AA turned off in the game, and onthe card have AA and AF set at 4X right now.. all the settings I have tried do nothing.. Also in fullscreen mode, when I press the ALT key to get the menu, the menu fonts are not clear at …

Does anybody know why there are no 1000 ft. marker signs on the runways in fs9. Are there any addons for them.

Hello peepsI can't get registered on their support forum to post, hence..... I wonder if anyone here can help:I've printed ALL the manuals, and read from cover to cover - twice, but can't find what i'm looking for. That, of course, doesn't mean it's not there;-) If i push the throttles to full power, both engines simply shut down, either on the ground, or in the air! If i apply power very gently on the take-off roll, only reaching about 3/4 throttle, all is well.This happens from either panel state being loaded - 'cold & dark' or 'ready to start'.Am i missing something obvious, or do i perhaps have a fault?Thanks
