May 21, 200818 yr Since The owner of Birdseye View is no longer around the FS community, and I was the webmaster for the site, I went a head and I am now hosting the site on my side. I wanted to keep it alive. I am working on getting the forums back up and running as well. Here is the new addresshttp://clfwsf.com/birdseye/
May 21, 200818 yr Was sorry to see the old site disappear. Hope all is well with Stephen.Glad to see that you're keeping the name active. A full FSX version of BEV would have been something special.
May 21, 200818 yr BEV was the very first enhancement I ever bought and I still enjoy it a lot! Good to see you keeping it going :)
May 21, 200818 yr Thanks, I wish I was able to renew the domain name but it is locked and I am unable to get it renewed. Thanks again to all that enjoyed it and still use it.

May 22, 200818 yr Yes he has vanished. I came on board with Vol 1 and been with him all the way, then just gone. I wish we were able to continue with vol 6 and make it work with fsx, but I really do not see that happening.
May 22, 200818 yr Really, I had no idea. I bought all volumes and they are still my base texture sets.best of luck & health to those who were involved. Bryan Wallis aka "fltsimguy" Maple Bay, British Columbia Near CAM3
May 24, 200818 yr HiI bought the summer edition.The configurator say that FS2004 not installed. Have you any idea what's wrong ?Also, I unzipped the file into FS2004, and did nothing else. Does that means it's installed ? Things do look a lot better.Thanks for any adviceDave
May 24, 200818 yr Thanks for picking up the torch on BEV - it's still my texture upgrade of choice, although it's a shame that they never finished the European version that was in the works.John G. John G.
May 25, 200818 yr if the installer didn't find your flight sim, then your registry is not correct. I highly recommen reading the users manual on how to configure birdseye.
May 25, 200818 yr HiI've uninstalled and reinstalled, but no difference. Actually there's no difference between default and BEV.Using the installer, I'm just selecting C/Prog/Ms9, and installing it straight there. Should I be installing direct into addon scenery, or somewhere.Also, and idea what could be wrong with my registry keys ?Thanks
May 25, 200818 yr head over here http://www.tweakfs.com/news/free_files.htmFSX Registry Utility download that and run it.After that is done, reinstall birdseye. After that is down, launch birdseye. Like I said please read the manual, it tells you how to configure the software. You will notice a big difference. Each volume of birdseye deals with a different season of FS9. So make sure you are flying in the season that you have of Birdseye.
May 26, 200818 yr Hi again,I've read the manual, and it doesn't seem to give any idea about where to install BEV from the installer. As I said, I'm just installing it into /Program Files/Microsoft Games/Flight Simulator 9.Should I be installing it somewhere else ?I'm not a complete novice, having ibstalled loads of add ons inclScenery and Aircraft, but this has me stumped. How do I know if it is installed, as so far I haven't noticed any difference.ThanksDave
