July 18, 201213 yr Author Fly more often in virtual Ukraine- welcome! ...And are You perhaps use new well- done Borispyl scenario from "interskystudio"? Thank you! I have recently installed this scenery but not yet tested it intensively. I think after my real-world vacation in Georgia I will simulate this flight via UKBB to UGTB within the sim (but of course with my beloved old propliner). By the way, I also like the UKKK scenery by A. Belikov, especially due to the nearby Aviation museum: And, of course, UKHH by Project Kharkov: P.S: I think this will be the plane I use from UKBB to UGTB in real world: Regards, Harald Geyer Gründer der Messerschmitt Freunde Dresden v.

July 18, 201213 yr Author Back to the topic: I replaced my FreeZ scenery by the "actual" version and have slightly better framerates now, but far from these with FSDT. Furthermore, Dock B is still a construction site at FreeZ's. Doing some experiments with FSDT trial version. Harald Geyer Gründer der Messerschmitt Freunde Dresden v. V.
July 18, 201213 yr When I will have bought the sceneries, - I want to remove the addon manager, because I want a clean FS2004 menue. Like you, I prefer to see what's happening inside my sim. After I uninstalled FSDT's JFK scenery, I found had it killed my Cloud 9 Phantom too! It took a huge amount of trial and error to get it back - just short of a fresh FS install. I truly dislike executable installers, and even more, "addon managers" which take control of your computer. Proceed with caution... EDIT: Found it, here: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php?topic=5037.0
July 18, 201213 yr Author Hello WingZ, I did some testing so far: I copyed the FSDT scenery files into my preferred folder and edited the scenery.cfg - it worked. I deinstalled the FSDT sceneries itself after copying them into my preferred folder, but didn't deinstall the addon manager - it worked, too. Deactivating the eSellerateEngine.dll file in Windows folder seemed to have no effect on FS2004; I think it will only affect the buying process itself. Now I deactivated the bglman.dll file within the "modules" folder - the scenery had no buildings, as it is the case after end of 7 minutes trial period. After my sandbox testing, and with the help of my always available copy of my complete "FS2004" folder I know that the addon manager consists of bglman.dll and five more files in "modules" folder. (If I experienced strange behavior in case I cannot buy FSDT sceneries, I would install FS2004 new, patch it to v9.1 and replace it with my copy of v9.3) And I will not buy FSDT sceneries if there is no way to deactivate "eSellerateEngine.dll" and "bglman.dll" after buying (!). Else I felt if I had some trojans on my PC... Unfortunately, I read the Aerosoft Zürich 2012 manual and they seem to have developed a similar method to activate sceneries named the "Aerosoft Launcher". When I bought Yekaterinburg X some weeks ago, this wasn't the case. But now I wait for being accepted in the FSDT forum and will ask my questions there. I will report then. Good night (or for you good morning) and read you later. Harald Geyer Gründer der Messerschmitt Freunde Dresden v. V.
July 20, 201213 yr Author For anybody who is interested, this is the answer to my request within the FSDT forum: http://www.fsdreamte...w;topicseen#new I will have to consider this. Has anybody else having problems with FSDT's installers and/or addon managers like WingZ reports? It would be a pity not to use both LSZH and LSGG, especially as for the last there seems to be absolutely no (freeware)alternative. Thanks Harald Harald Geyer Gründer der Messerschmitt Freunde Dresden v. V.
July 20, 201213 yr Thank you! I have recently installed this scenery but not yet tested it intensively. I think after my real-world vacation in Georgia I will simulate this flight via UKBB to UGTB within the sim (but of course with my beloved old propliner). By the way, I also like the UKKK scenery by A. Belikov, especially due to the nearby Aviation museum:... ...And, of course, UKHH by Project Kharkov:... UKBB & UKHH scenarios continue under develop at this time, at better frame rates. UKKK scenario,by A. Belikov(as FreeZ`s Zurich is), still very need at rework- his scenario contain many defects... P.S: I think this will be the plane I use from UKBB to UGTB in real world: That`s right :) Regards, Thank You, and Best Regards too!
July 20, 201213 yr Author Good evening UR67393, perhaps we should open a new thread about Ukrainian Sceneries or, wider, about CIS sceneries B) UKHH: My frame rates are o.k., as you can see UKHH is most exciting with SBAI Mi-8 and helipads. Another masterpiece from Ukraine! UKKK: Yes, the airport is rather old, but is there any better version available? And I like the museum, really! Greetings!

July 20, 201213 yr Author Now I bought LSZH and LSGG from FSDT, despite having some doubts due to the Addon Manager etc. But LSZH is really fine and modern compared to FreeZ (which is in my opinion very good for a freeware scenery), and there's no alternative at all to LSGG.

July 20, 201213 yr Good evening UR67393, Good evening Harald :) perhaps we should open a new thread about Ukrainian Sceneries or, wider, about CIS sceneries B) :) It`s good idea... Some CIS countries, and of course another countries too, contain hidden defects. As example several simple defects: 3D model of constructions contain lower texture polygons- e.g. floor, which need deleted when creating 3D models into 3D program(s). Floor which not see user`s CPU forced calculate excess dates... And now think next: if CPU calculate many such dates, is this will affect at frame rates in the and? Yes, fps will fall. If many 3D models not compiled into one file- that`s reason for decrease of fps, particularly at low pc. Example, thereto UKKK scenario... Or, next example: parts of one 3D model not connect together, if very many polygons in many 3D models- it give fall fps(it in Freez scenario) at not very fast pc, and etc... We need inspect and texture sets too, and decide- is need sets with 1024x1024, 32Bit or may be quite good sets with 128x128, DXT1? We need check constantly 3D models in new and old scenarios by ModelConverterX. This is utility which allows to You view of created 3D models, it will help to us. If You not know any about ModelConverterX look at this site http://www.scenerydesign dot org/modelconverterx/ If You wish download latest version, install it(simply copy), and open... UKKK and Zurich`s files by ModelConverterX, take a look at low floor in to 3D models... Many virtual pilots have fast pc, which quite good cope with scenarios which contain many mistakes into 3D models. How check new/old scenario else? Download flight at RW, after taxi to 3D models of constructions and check absent of crashes during taxi. Next taxi to the... virtual terminal and check swith- off of crashes- fps will be better. Then taxi to the inside of treminals :) and inspecting the floor and absent of internal texture of models. It simply check and it need check always. We need necessarily constantly check 3D files in to scenarios. I can`t tell to You about all here, but You must constantly read inform at this special site http://www.fsdeveloper.com/UKHH: My frame rates are o.k., as you can see... Perhaps You have fast pc, which quick calculated dates. For calculated of fps I use FlightSim Manager program(it placed at avsim.com). FSM have indicator of fps, and it prompt to me figures of fps, at my P4 I know figure of fps exactly. UKHH is most exciting with SBAI Mi-8 and helipads. Another masterpiece from Ukraine! You are quite right. Yes, scenario and AI model designers have come a long way of learning own favorite occupation. And now They have masterworks(!). And we`re need constantly read http://www.fsdeveloper.com/ to know mistakes in to scenarios, it is useful to us(!). Scenery developers and AI designers constantly learning http://www.fsdeveloper.com/UKKK: Yes, the airport is rather old, but is there any better version available? And I like the museum, really! I asked of UKKK author at the forum(I told him about many his mistakes into scenario), he did not answer anything... May be he drop own fs... So, in this case, we must correct the errors themselves(!), by our hands- learn at http://www.fsdeveloper.com/ start need created simply 3D model into G- max- cube with textures... It very simple, this is pleasure ;)::. Greetings!Harald Thank You for Your attention Harald, and Best Regards for You!
