Hi All:Are any of you using the Night Environment Upgrade that is available in the Avsim library? I would like to know if it has any bad affects on addon scenery.ThanksRick

Hey all,For the last couple of day i've been having problem with my flightsim, I dont know whats going i tryed everything to fix the problem but no results. I have attached a picture of what my screen looks like when im landing at any aiport. I can barely see the airport just the runway, its like everything disappears within 20 mi radius. Does anyone know why this is happening and what can i do to fix it. Thank youair powerrrr

Recently I've had problems with the logbook in FS2004. If I don't open the logbook prior to exiting FS2004 I get the error message "Flight Simulator can't find logbook "xyz" (where xyz is a string of garbled text). I'm told to recreate the logbook or start a new one. However, as I said, if I open the logbook before exiting FS2004 this message won't appear, rather, the normal logbook window will appear as usual. What's going on here, and more importantly, how do I fix it?Another problem I'm hoping someone can help me resolve is that I can't print out a flight plan in FS2004. When I click on "Print" nothing happens. FS doesn't lock up on me though. If I click on "can…

I have been trying to solve a dreaded short final Out of Memory error with the PMDG 747. One of the things i've noticed in filemon is that whether landing in Chicago (KORD), KBOS, or KLAX, or KSEA, the sim is calling for scenery from Freeflow Bermuda. Is it normal for the sim to be calling for scenery from so far away? The calls are successful, but I was just wondering why scenery from so far away is coming into play.

Ey Guys,I have a problem installing a PMDG file in Flight Simulater 9!At the end of the installation it says ERROR!File could not be opened.Does somebody know what this means?

Can anyone point me to an FS9 compatible scenery upgrade? Payware included. Thanks.Betel

Looks like another 2D panel project. Nothing seems to be going on concerning a new external/VC model...

Hello all,I am pretty sure that the answer to this question is GEP + UT is the closest I will get, but I have not seen this specific question asked and answered. Apologies if I have missed such a post.Being a native of the DFW area, I bought the MegaScenery for DFW. While it looks decent at 5k+ feet and higher, slow and low it suffers from "leopard skinning" and autogen mishaps. Granted, it is a way more accurate representation of the area and what roads exist in the Metroplex, but I have to say that all I have gained is blurry (yet geographically accurate) satellite imagery as opposed to blurry canned textures (with the added "bonus" of laughable road/population placeme…

When flying a 737PIC aircraft I noticed that the pilot will say different things to the ATC depending on which vairant I'm flying. While flying the 737-300 the pilot will report the flight number when contacting ATC and follow with "type is Boeing 737". When flying the 737PIC -500 the pilot meerly says "With you" following the flight number while anouncing his presence in the ATC's airspace. While flying the 737-400 the pilot reports his aircraft is type "experimental"! I've tried to track down where this is coming from so I can change it to "Boeing 737" (I'd like to do the same with the -500), but without success so far. I thought it might be in the aircraft.cfg fil…

HelloDoes anybody know what happened to the cessna 406 from neuroflight.

This looks like a finely modeled aircraft from Eaglesoft, but i can't seem to find any reviews about it anywhere online.Has anyone here purchased this plane? and what do you think? Also, how are the fps?thanks-feng

Tried to access the FT Forum using the link I always do and a windows lock box popped up asking for user ID and password--to a iemit.com--doesn't work.Any similar?ThanksRake

I saw the F-105 at Alphasim, but it looks outdated. Are there any others? Are there any freeware models...couldn't find any here at Avsim or over at FS.com

Does anyone know were I can D/L repaints for tha Airbus? I can't find it on the Wilco site.Dave F.

Hey everyone. I have been wanting to get a new aircraft as I am waiting for DF ArcherII and AXP. I was looking at the Alphasim De Havilland DHC-4 (C-7) Caribou. How is this model overall? I fly only VC...All switchable cockpit, texture quality, sounds etc... I lookied at the screens on Alphasim's site, but they always zoom out most of the time at 50% which makes it hard to see the quaulity and such as it really is. Your opinions are much appreciated. Thanks folks.

Got a problem here, just installed the new BFG GF8800 GTX OC 764mb Video card. Graphics are awsome to say the least. After setting up the card and my FS2004 for optimum performance, I found I could no longer view aircraft in the "Select Aircraft" window.Anyone got any ideas on how to get the view back?

It would be nice when flying heavies to be able to look at given ICAO code and determine the airport name and location to see where one is, KLSC = Salt Lake international, Salt Lake City, UtahDoes anyone know if such a database exists. Obviously it is hard coded into FS 9, but one cannot stop while flying to look up something in the flight planning section very easily.I have searched on line and never really found such a database.Greg

I've never purchased from this company before, and they seem to be reputable, but after purchasing a product from them they will not let me download it. At first thought there was a problem with the website, so I purchased it a second time, and then tried again a third time later in the night, yet when I go to my account to downlaod the product it still says I have not purchased anything and won't let me downlaod.All three times it said my card was approved, and gave me a reciept number, yet it tells me I have not purchased anything.I emailed them and after two days I have not recieved a response, so I have to wonder if these guys are shady or what. I would certainly ex…
