I just checked and the link on that page takes you to the download for v2.4.1.Look on that page for "other versions", that link for 1.6 works.regards,Joe

The link works, but if you look about 1/2 way down the page, you'll see that IOBit even TELLS you that the link will take you to v.2.4...! Even tho it's marked i on the front page as v.1.6.<br /><br />-- Sent from my Galaxy S II Skyrocket over the (painfully slow) AT&T "FORE-GEE" Network.

Here is the FS9 Post:

 

What resolution and scale is your monitor set to run in Windows? Control Panel - Display - SettingsWhat is your monitor set to run in FS9?Are you saying there is no 32bit screen resolution options in FS9? Using Nhancer for FS9 is the same as I posted for FSX.. same settings, no difference except use the Flight Simulator 2004 profile http://www.simforums...D=156769#156769For FS9.. this is the list of FS9 settings and config edits I used years ago=================================FS9 CONFIGURATION FILE REBUILDSave a copy of your current FS9.cfg file in a safe place. Then DELETE the FS9.cfg file being used by the sim. Start Flight Simulator. You will be starting clean with a new FS9.cfg file Let the sim boot and go to the SETTINGS area. Make the following changes: DISPLAY BUTTON: Scenery Tab: All sliders to 100% and ALL check boxes checked (water FX on 100%) Aircraft Tab: Drop down box, select HIGH, which should enable everything Weather Tab: set each slider in this order: 60 -40 - 100 with Detailed Clouds and 100% maximum density Hardware Tab: Frame Lock @ 30XXXXxXXXXx32, NOTE: SET THIS TO YOUR MONITORS NATIVE RESOLUTION - X32 Check in: Render to Texture, Transform and LightingUNCHECK AA, Trillinear Filtering, Mip Quality 4 FOR ATI, 8 FOR NVIDIA // NOTE: If shimmers are seen, reduce this to 4 or 5!Hardware Lights 8, Global Texture Slider 100% CLICK OKSOUND BUTTON: HIGH TRAFFIC BUTTON: Traffic to 90%, click OK REALISM BUTTON Drop down Box; set to HARD, CHECK allow collisions with other aircraft. AUTO RUDDER should be enabled if you fly keyboard and do not use pedals. Click OK WEATHER BUTTON: Check only Download Winds Aloft with real world weather, click OK Close the sim Once you close the sim a new FS9.cfg file will be written with the settings you just made. Open the new FS9.cfg file in notepad. Scroll down and VERIFY - ADD - EDIT - CHANGE the following items in the list: [CONTROLS]PAN_RATE=700 <--- will always be 700 [TERRAIN]TERRAIN_ERROR_FACTOR=100.000000TERRAIN_MIN_DEM_AREA=10.000000TERRAIN_MAX_DEM_AREA=100.000000TERRAIN_MAX_VERTEX_LEVEL=21TERRAIN_TEXTURE_SIZE_EXP=8TERRAIN_AUTOGEN_DENSITY=5TERRAIN_USE_GRADIENT_MAP=1TERRAIN_EXTENDED_TEXTURES=1TERRAIN_DEFAULT_RADIUS=9.5 // Also try 9.0TERRAIN_EXTENDED_RADIUS=9.0 // Also try 4.5 (with 9.5 or 9.0 above)TERRAIN_EXTENDED_LEVELS=4 < --- If you use FSGenesis mesh, make it 4. If not experiment with 1. This setting is either 1 or 4, nothing else[sCENERY]IMAGE_COMPLEXITY=5DYNAMIC_SCENERY=1DYN_SCN_DENSITY=5DAWN_DUSK_SMOOTHING=1SUNGLARE=1LENSFLARE=1 Close and save the FS9.cfg file.===============================
