Hi,That is AS 2004.5 and not ASV. So your procedure is:1. Start FE and choose your textures. Then you can close FE.2. Start AS2004.5.3. Run FS04.You can still get the discount price for ASV, if you wish.Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

if you use the FE Randomizer, you'll need to run FE/FS and then AS...

Hi spook,How so when AS2004.5 does not touch the textures at all? Just trying to be clear for myself!Hope this helps,JimActiveSky Sales and Supporthttp://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_dev_team.jpg http://www.hifisim.com/images/asv_proud_supporter.jpg

Thanks Peter and again to be honest I suspect at some stage I will purchase your product as the asking price seems very reasonable by today's standards.Best wishesBruceb

Hi Jim,I think spook uses FE in full randomize mode where after the randomize it boots to game automacticaly. (This auto boot can be disabled or enabled as an option)So if the randomize works and loads the game straight after then Acitve Sky will need to be statred after the game.It shouldn't be a problem.Also, with Active Sky version 4.5 it may be possible to start AS 4.5 first; then randomize the FE clouds and then let the game auto load.Regards,

yes, sorry for the confusion, when I said "use the randomizer" I was refering to it also booting the game....

Jim and Pete, Thanks for all the help, I own both FE and AS and love them both equally. Don't have time to fly a whole lot lately, because of work, but enjoy using these programs when I do. Keep up the good work. Thanks again, Bob

Thanks Bob,Your appriciation is much appriciated. I'm sure I speak for Jim and ASV also.Peter
