Hi all, I'm happy you noticed the JazZ Art water textures :D I designed them, but have to agree with you that I got a little too carried away with some of the reflections.. :rolleyes: Still, Version 2 is being designed right now and will correct that as a few other things.. You mentioned above the clouds' reflections on water: Actually those clouds are always painted.. at least on FS9. One ugly thing the FS9 machine does is to strech those textures on the edges and that leads to the clouds appearing as vertical lines pending from the horizon.. I'm sure you already saw that in some...

Have a read over the instructions a few times and see if it starts to make any sense. Also go into the folders to see what they look like and then you can start to see where what goes where. I remember being in your position about 4 years ago with flightsim. Be patient and maybe ask someone with a little know how to help you too. :) ~ZK-KAG~ >nzflag<

Depends on your credit card company the one currently using does not charge a Servicing Fee as they cal it. what company is this? i would dearly love to do away with 'foreign currency conversion' fees... they basically came about because everyone figured out you were better off using CC's instead of buying foreign cash and/or travellers cheques when travelling... I preferred to just stick the card in an ATM and get foreign cash... pay like $5 but it was cheaper than going to the bank's currency exchange... not so much anymore with these stupid charges...

The real problem would be storage and server space and the implementation of the code for the uploading, archiving and eventual retrieval of the images. Don't be fooled, its no walk in the park. ;) Alex

There is no substitute for the real thing when it comes to flying,FS can give one a very false impression of what it is like to actually fly an aircraft. I am both ways in this, FS can give up like said before allot of "freedom" that maybe you wouldn't get in the real world e.g. I can fly anywhere, any aircraft, any time I want. Which is not possible in the RW. However there is just the, how can I say umm "feeling of flight" which FS will never be able to replicate. For me RW flying and FS flying work well together Regards, Scott

If you are serious about FSX go dual core, its been made very clear SP1 will fix this oversight in the original FSX release and utilise this technology. Having said that, wait a few more weeks to see what improvements SP1 will provide, we may all be more surprised than we think ;)

Yeah, I'm going to tentatively agree with Jimmy. There is only one staff member listed, and they only give you the choice of 2 aircraft, an F-16 and an extra 300 (the organiser possibly has limited experience of airshows - where's the DC3s!).

anything with a colour after it is generally a formation with each aircraft in the formation designated by number ie 4x A4's ( not anymore) would be Skyhawk blue and each aircraft would be blue1 blue2 etc. Ct4's (-B when I flew them) are Trainer ie Trainer 69 etc C130 = HercXX when I have talked to the seasprites they usually call themselves 'seaspriteXX' Do you know if there are any decent CT4 aircraft available for FS9 please?. Pat. Ct4 Avsim Go and use this link i t has a decent model of the CT4

Might be the excuse I want to watch the 3 hour DVD I have called Pioneering Aviation in New Zealand. A good friend of mine used to Fly DC3s for Spanz one one the planes he flew is the one parked at Taupo. I have not been in contact with him for a while so maybe a while to find him he dont own a PC.
