Hello all.Today I added the above mentioned update and have a problem with TCAS.If I turn off 'show all traffic' I lose all TCAS markers, even if I switch between ABOVE/N/BELOW there's nothingI am now having to run in 'show all traffic' in order to get any TCAS markers.I am using the FSUIPC option with a max range of 100.Any help would be greatly appreciated.Cheers.Mark.

I brought this up a couple of weeks ago ... ( -99 TCAS ), now I saw Capt.R's. answer...I will tell you real world happening in 2001:On his final check out as captain on the MD11 on a flight from FRA to JFK over the UK his copilot advised him of a target about 75 miles ahead SAME level opposite direction!! With the TCAS system NOW modelled in the 747 he would never had a chance to advise ATC, who corrected the situation...Karl-Heinz - EDDI/THF " Tempelhof "" The mother of all airports " - Sir Norman Fosterhttp://www.precisionmanuals.com/images/forum/747400.jpg
