Flight verification help

[Guest Shalomar]

I would like to participate in this year's race but have had no luck getting a screenshot utility going. It must save them in Jpeg format because I do not have a converter. I tried Screen Shooter but after multiple installs it never works as advertised. Although I set Jpeg it saves one pic in BMP, names it temp and overwrites it next time I take a picture. Thanx in advance.Best Regards, Donny :-waveFLYing? It's cool. Trillions of birds and insects can't be wrong.

There has to be a million screen capture apps out there. This is the one I use.http://www.howiesfunware.com/Look in misc software I think.Miller (Flying for SOH in the RTWR as Gibbons)

Hi and welcome Donny :-waveThe prefered way to validate flights is the FS Duenna, created by Johannes Mueller. You can find it here: http://johannesmueller.com/fs/web/duenna/Download the "Full installation, Rev. 44" and the "BETA Update, Rev. 89", and you're all set. At the moment, it doesn't work completely with FSX, it does not recognize the weather and realism settings. But that should be fixed in time for the race.Edit: Oh, and it will still work, it only gives you an error and the flight is not validated, but that's no problem for now.And if you still want to take screenshots, I think that MS Paint can save images as jpg?Klasse

If you get the software installed we can make some test runs on bushnet tonight with Voice. I should be on after 10pm Mountain time.It is pretty easy to use.

Hey there Donny,Did you manage to get yourself squared away with the Duenna tool?You're certainly welcome to join us for the race. We still need more pilots! I do recommend that you come hang out with us and do some practice legs so you know the baton handoff process and can meet the rest of the team and such.If you need a hand getting squared away, hit me on IM some time. I'm "MAKopack" on Yahoo and AIM and I'll try to get you set up. I should be doing some practice flying this weekend.--Mike
