I am about to get abacus's new FSDS2 and build a edge540T specificly for FS2002 I am going to go on the edge540 site and get all the information on it and it will have a smoke system including red wingtip smoke not the bulky kind but the smooth slinder kind I am also going to build many other aircraft I can and will build one from any specifications I get you guys pick the type of the aircraft and I will set out to build it

I'm also thinking along the lines of buying this product also. I haven't been working on Gmax recently due to real flight revision, but my main concern about this FSDS2 is will it work with FS2004 - in both aspects of scenery and aircraft design?I've heard from a few users of the previous version that the FSDS program is less complicated and easier to work with than gmax.CheersWill

That is what I am woundering to if it will work with FS2004 Will keep me updated on the new flight simulator 2004 when will it be out next year?

Does anybody have the URL to FSDS2's website?Ryan-Flightpro08 :-cool VATSIM Pilot/ControllerZLA ARTCC Senior Controller (C-3)SAN TRACON Lead ASRC (Advanced Simulated Radar Client) Beta Tester-----------------------------My "Home Made" System Specs:Intel Pentium 4 2.2GHz ProcessorTurbo Gamer ATX Mid-Tower with 420W Power SupplyEPoX 4G4A Motherboard with Intel 845G ChipsetVisiontek XTASY GeForce4 128MB Ti4600 (Det 30.30 Drivers)512MB PC2100 DDR RAM40GB Matrox 7200RPM Hard DriveWindows XP Home Edition SP1*No CPU or GPU Overclocking*3dMark2001SE Score: 11298-----------------------------Click [link:ftp.avsim.com/library/esearch.php?DLID=&Name=&FileName=&Author=Ryan+Fretwell&CatID=Root]Here to Download my New American Eagle POSKY CRJ-200!

Will,I have been a long time FSDS user, and I am also familiar with the Microsoft SDK's.I know for a fact that the new FSDS V2 uses the floating-point OP Codes that are supported in FS2002 (previous versions do not).The FS2002 SDK's state that only models created with the floating-point opcodes will be supported in future FS versions.If Microsoft sticks to the printed word, then models created with FSDS V2 will be supported in FS2004. Cheers,Allen

Thanks Allen what planes should I build with FSDS for the existing FS2002?
