This used to happen all the time, anything I'd upload to Avsim would show up on Flightsim. Back then Flightsim.com used to offer short-term full accounts in exchange for uploads. People where raiding Avsim and uploading to Flightsim to get free access. I'm pretty sure they don't offer that any more, but maybe people are still uploading for kudos.

Yes - in FSX. See Simpilot for the discussion

Can you send me some Dorito corn chips over from Oz, by the way? /tongue.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :P border= 0 alt= tongue.gif />

Did you manade to sell it?

I do all my flying with VPA and vANZ, Air New Zealand flights. Domestic in the 733 for now, I try to fly one or two flights a day. I'm also a member of various other virtual airlines. James

I think a lot of what you've said is quite true tho- take Jon Murchison's review of the FSX traffic. It's basically paying for the free VOZ AI (albeit worldwide), the models are poor and the textures don't fit (i.e. no better than VOZ). Always ask someone if they have the model first. And be prepared to paint your own textures, because some people just cannot get it right. /dry.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= <_< border= 0 alt= dry.gif />

MyTraffic and Ultimate Traffic are great if you don't mind garbage models and repaints along with make believe flightplans and lower frame rates. If that's your thing, then I highly recommend them both. I could easily squat over my monitor and pinch one off and still have better results than you'll get from payware packages using PAI version 1 models along with rehashed repaints. Sorry to be so crude, but the truth needs to be told. The results one would get after a few hours manually installing superior freeware models, repaints, and realistic flightplans is well worth the time...

not the most reliable method I have ever seen of grounding something... and technically its not even really grounded /smile.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :) border= 0 alt= smile.gif /> I do hope you go and get one of those 'proper' mono to stereo converters!

I would also say that there seems to be very little logic to some of the starting positions... sometimes gates which are numerically adjacent in the dropdown list (eg. Gate 7 and 8) are not actually next to each other in the FS world! One way to figure out exactly where each gate/starting location is, is to load up the AFCAD in the AFCAD2 utility and find out what all the starting locations are... this can be easier/quicker than manually testing each starting location and waiting for FS to load the terrain/scenery etc.

QUOTE(Gazz @ Aug 23 2007, 02:10 AM) Heya, do you use FSPassengers? This is a awesome addon to mimmick passanger flights. You can start from scratch and build up a whole fleet of aircraft. Anyway, it doesn't add passengers to planes but it deffiently gives you the sense that you have people in the back. that is just one reason i don't use fsx, i can't use FSPassengers with it. it doesn't add the visual people in the back, but it adds soo much realism to your flights, every flight i do i use FSPassengere

QUOTE(Dan @ Aug 13 2007, 05:51 PM) Thanks ZK-LGD. Success! /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> It does work. I used the text you posted and there were no problems. I tried again with the VATSIM weathers. There's a garbled bit in the middle of the file that ends in 'user-agent: yandex' and this causes FSMetar to reject the file. It worked fine when I took that bit out. It still doesn't like the IVAO text file though, there might be an error in it somewhere that I haven't noticed. NOAA seems good though, with better...

Its just extra wires to me ,,having all that room taken up for a 180 view seems excessive and costly ,i far prefer just two screens maybe with a trackIR4 ,and you get to look up and down around 360 turn and as smooth as a babys bum ,what do you have all those screens doing anyway are they all just copit views or fsnav gauges and the other four for sim view etc ...?? 2 triple head to go cost like $1000, then 6 22inch screens and cards to run them, man thats alot of $$$$$ when you almost get the same if not better feeling with a track IR for about $300...

Awsome Deane! I got 111 too. /biggrin.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= :D border= 0 alt= biggrin.gif /> James

Yeah I'm curious as to how well some of the guys I fly with would handle a real dogfight as some of them are quite good and the usual reality tv shows pretty much suck as well at least dogfighting is more interesting.

Im not really keen to do it, besides, why should I supply the entire world with charts that cost money!! /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif /> If the guys who got in first want to play around with doing all that then thats fine.

I have had my first joystick, a Siatek Rumble Force, for longer than I can remember excatly.. Its done a bloody good job and still goes perfectly, I still remember they day I saw it there on sale in the phamptlet circular, forty or fifty dollars it was, I was chuffed, and everyday since it has kept me happy....

SCVAC was shut down about 2 years ago, so don't bother visiting the site /winkyy.gif style= vertical-align:middle emoid= ;) border= 0 alt= winkyy.gif />

QUOTE(Zöltuger @ Jul 28 2007, 04:20 AM) is it just grass, or does everything go blurry? Have you installed SP1? Thanks for the reply. Just the grass, I think, except the waves on the beach also vanish. Refresh works except after a minute or so they vanish again. SP1 is installed.
