Recently, I've purchased TSS's 767 GE sound to use it as a replacement sound for Level-D 767. After install, i started flight sim and loaded Level-D 767. Unfortunately, the engine sound sounds very odd.Just like a buzzing, scratchy, blare sound I wasn't able to find any difference on replaced sound compared to default level-d sound. Of course I tried to configure the sound settings, but it wasn't a solution for problem.And when I replaced the sound file to other aircraft, It just works perfectly without problem :( So it seems like a problem only occurs on Level-D 767, but I couldn't fimd any solution for it on any flight sim forum. I'll be a great help for m…

While trying to add an airport I somehow d0uble clicked my entire Addon Scenery folder into the 1033 folder alongside the dwntl.dll. I then deleted it out of there. The original Addon Scenery folder was still in place but nothing works. I am back to the default scenery. I am completely bamboozled and nothing I try brings any of it back.. I do have most of it backed up but have not tampered with that yet. JGSJW

I noticied this afternoon while selecting a different pilot voice for my flight that some of the voices are not working. I still see the text just like they are talking but no voice. Later on i changed the time and found out the voice that wouldn't work now works and a different one doesn't work. I still see the text for the ones that don't work. This just started this afternoon. How can i fix this? What are the voice files on the cd named so that i can reinstall the voice files? Anyone have this thing happen before? Please help...

Hi guys, I'm searching for good ground textures for fs9. Does anybody know some good ones. I'm currently using Ground Enviroment Pro II. But are there better ones that looks like ORBX which only runs on fsx. Or runs ORBX in Fs9 without problems?

Hi; Something screwed up and I had to reinstall Fs9, I then reinstalled all my AI aircraft and used TTools to do my flight plans and checked that they are in the Scenery/world/scenery folder, they are. When I went to check for my addon flightplans and the aircraft nuthing just the default traffic. So I went to the said AI aircraft and all the revelent textures are missing! Where did these textures go? Totally ###### off. Can anyone explain why this happened. Thanks Robin :unsure:

Hello. I'm trying to find out if anyone knows where I might be able to find an EditVoicepack file for "Wright Flyer" for Wright Air Services. I've seen posts that say this should be in the default list for both FS9 and FSX but I don't have it. I have seen others that say they don't as well. So, I'm looking for one that's already been done. Any help would be greatly appreciated. P.S. I'm also looking for "MEDEVAC". Thanks!

I have two AIRAC database files archived, one is some years old - I am not sure where it came from but I think it's for a Wilco/Feelthere aircraft. It is called nd.mdb I also have a later file, still a year or so old (from Navigraph I think) but I wanted to use that instead of the older one. This has an fdb extension however. Are these not compatible - I assume that if FS9 is reading the mdb file OK, replacing it with the fdb file won't work? I can't see anything on Google - it says these are Microsoft Access files (a different file altogether I presume).. I may experiment meanwhile, but thanks for any insight into this! Martin

Hello.. I have installed the Marcel Kuhnt Britten Norman Islanders into FS9, installing the Basic Sets (e.g DIAAI32G.zip and the others like it), the Soundset files (BN32Snd3, \2 and\4), and the files in BN32Rest.zip. These are given as downloads in Marcel's site. That site is at www.m-r-software.de Though I have installed all the repaints as per his instructions, only 2 of the 8 planes or so have shown in my fs9 in the sim and could be fllown. I then tried to find the aircraft folders and they are not anywhere in in the fs9\Aircraft folder, neither in the fs9 Main directory. I had never seen such a mystery as this before, in 20 years of simming... …

We still have to wait for the new functionalities, but this is an update with some interesting new airports.

Hi; I am running Windows 7 as my o/s and I've done the adm route,compatibilitey route, and got AIFP221,TTools, and have been mucking about trying to get the flightplans I've made with the program to show up at the airport used for the plans which CYUL. I've complied the plans etc and checked the departure time etc and when I use TTB to see if the aircraft are there nothing shows up except the default traffic files aircraft. Is it Windows 7 which is causing the problems. Please give me your views on this darn thing. Robin

Help needed with the new TDS Max8. Looks good but it won`t come unstuck at full throttle and flaps 10,170 knts it crashes into the first obstacle in it`s path. It simply won`t fly. Something i`m missing here? Regards,Alcan.

Hi; I've a problem with Traffic Toolbox explore function, when I click on it to defaults to the system tray and I cant get it to display on the main screen of Fs9.

Hi: I am looking for a high quality Android App that will connect to FS2004 that will allow me to have such functions as moving map, perhaps place instruments on the screen of the Android tablet and so on...I have seen several apps, but they seem to be more of a gimmick...Is there a truly good Android app for FS2004? Thanks a lot, Steve

Hello All!! I was wondering if there is any way to increase the level of autogen buildings and trees beyond the "Extemely Dense" setting in FS9? Maybe a line in the FS9.cfg file somewhere, or is it even possible? Thanks!Paul

Nice aircraft to fly.The Yak-40. B) :rolleyes:

How do you do it? JGSJW

Hi, I'm after the above mentioned plane for FS9. Exact livery is unimportant, just so long as I can acquire a reasonable model of it. In the AVSIM library I see there was a download titled 'yakovlev40.zip'. It appeared to be a complete plane so I downloaded and installed it. Looks good from the outside but the problems begin inside on the flight deck. The 2D-panel is missing two or three gauges at the bottom, and the 3D-panel is blank entirely and cold-and-dark at night with no way to light it. I see no gauge packs, .zip folders, etc. that are to be installed in the main gauges folder. Unless I'm missing something, I think the author (who did release this …

Anyone know of a really good one, with functioning overhead panels etc.? Could be payware, if no freeware. I can't find one .. Many thanks, Martin

Well, school is in session for most across the U.S., so I thought it appropriate to give you all a report card on a few ground texture options that I've had the pleasure of using. I was an early and long-time user of Bird's Eye View (BEV). A few years ago, I wanted a "change" and started using Ground Environment Professional (GE Pro). I have spent most of today loading and evaluating more ground texture options - FS9 EVO v2 and xxxxxxx. The grades and opinions given are MINE and MINE ONLY. You may agree or disagree, but do it nicely as I certainly realize the subjective nature of this report card. In other words, no tests were given to the participants! NONE THAT CAN…

Hello all I have been trying to install an earlier nividea driver.Normally no problem. Unfortunately this time I have made some sort of error and now cannot install ANY nvidea drivers at all even the originals from disc. My problem now ? My PC will only start in a low resolution mode which means no start bar or access to system restore (desperate measures) Please!how do I get to system restore from this low resolution. I know SR option is not always the best but I am a little desperate. This is FS 2004 related ,because I can't open it or indeed anything bloody else . Cheers stinking socks Ok chaps! I seem at last by the old and tried method of fiddling and t…

Hi, I'm looking for an AI aircraft DC10. I found some models here in avsim library, a DC10-10 and a DC10-30, I downloaded the -30 version because of the available repaints. But reading the descriptions and readme files, nothing but negativity is shown for that model. Is there something I should know about before I start my traffic file please. Thanks in advance. The base model is here : http://library.avsim.net/esearch.php?DLID=&Name=&FileName=aim_dc1030_crummy_mdl_pack.zip&Author=&CatID=root

Hi everyone, I've recently been in the mood to fly some routes with the SkySpirit/POSKY 777-300ER models. However, I've been putting it off due to a weird issue with ILS landings that I always seem to encounter with these models. To give some background, I set up ILS approaches and everything is normal right upto the moment I intercept the glideslope. At that point, the aircraft begins descending automatically, but the abnormality is that it immediately pitches nose down and carries on down the glideslope. I must add that the aircraft does not immediately lose altitude or completely nose dive. As I said, it maintains the proper descent on the glideslope but pointing…

The latest scenery from Blueprint is KEWR. Before now we only had one option for a detailed version of this airport and that was Imaginesim's legacy effort. For the FS9 crowd this was a framerate hog in an already taxing area. A while ago I asked Blueprint to concider KEWR and they told me they would (just like they did with KMSP and KMEM in the past). Some may poo poo this developer but for an area like NYC we needed an effort like this that puts little overhead over the default when it comes to resources. KEWR was the only airport in FS9 up until this point that gave me an issue on approach especially at dusk. Now we have a version that looks great and is easy on …
