December 2, 200421 yr Hi,I finally caved in and upgraded to FS9 (FS9.1 to be exact) from FS2002. My delay was because of PIC767, but I didn't want to wait any longer and purchased the PMDG 737NG 600/700 (CD Version). I also installed my Piper Meridian with the FS9 update.For the most part, eveything went well. No major complications on the installs and I spent most of yesterday doing some tweaking as well as learning the ins and outs of the 737. I've also installed all the software for flying online via VATSIM and FSMeteo for weather.The sim overall runs great, but there are a couple of questions I have that I can't find the answers to, and/or just need some advice.1) Clouds - In FS2002 I replaced my clouds with the ones offered by FSW. They were great. The clouds in FS9 are ok, but still a bit weak. I would like to improve on them. I went to FSW, but it's hard to tell which ones I should download and install. Do you have any recommendations, tips, and/or tricks?2) Views - I want to fix the views in FS9 when using my keypad like I did in FS2002. I can't find how to do this anywhere. Can someone tell me how?3) PMDG 737NG - I've read somewhere in the PMDG Support Forum that the 600/700 isn't quite 100% multi-monitor supported. I use two monitors. No issues with having the Throttle, FMC, and Radios undocked and moved to the second monitor. However, the Overhead Panel is another matter. The issue is that when I undock it and move it over, I loose the main panel. I can bring it back with the keyboard commands, but the main panel doesn't operate properly. Any suggestions here, or do I have to live with it?Once I fix the views and improve the clouds, the sim will be as perfect as I need it to be. I'm of the understanding that the new 737's from PMDG have full multi-monitor support, but I don't want to buy it right now.Anyhow, any suggestions are appreciated.Thanks in advance,Lawrie
