Brilliant shots, Alex. Makes me miss home that much more. :)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

Hi Jos

Thanks for the information, guys. Shame it wouldn't work, because I too would like to see FS run on a stable operating system. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

I was thinking about that, but it seems like it would be compromising either the simulator or the Mac OS. Oh well...kind of what I figured. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

Quick, potentially absurd question for you all...Will FS2004 run on a Mac?-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

That would be lovely if in fact they have reorganized.Many thanks for the information, Jeff. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

Before I begin, I want to make it perfectly clear that my intention is only to gather information and not to 'stir the pot.'Here is an excerpt from the Project Airbus EULA:"Repaints:You may repaint the plane in a livery that has been painted in the past and present that the Project Airbus team have not painted. You must post for permission in the Request Repaint forum if you are to distribute our aircraft out on the Internet. You must send us a copy of your aircraft so we can post it up on our website."My question is this: due to the fact that the Project Airbus Request Repaint Forum no longer exists and that there are no files available for download at their website, dues the EULA become null and void?I ask purely out of ignorance, and therefore any help is appreciated. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected] me r

Hi Bert,I actually went to www.nvidia.com and downloaded the 30.82 drivers from their archive, as for some reason I can't seem to make the ones from guru3d download.In any event, I did just as you said and the problem has absolutely disappeared. I hope this is the case for a few more days as I run further tests, but at this point everything looks 100% better. Thanks so much for the tip! :DAnd again, many thanks to everyone who responded to this thread - I really appreciate everyone's help.:-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Hi Steve,I actually thought precisely the same thing - it makes sense...the lights are the ones that are most affected by it...but alas, it didn't remedy the situation. However, I am just about to install the 30.82 drivers as recommended by Bert. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Hi jacsantos,Thanks for the suggestion, but unfortunately that box is and has been unchecked. :-(Thanks for your time, though - I appreciate it! :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Hi John,Because I honestly didn't know, I checked both the settings on my display properties from within Windows XP and in the simulator. It turns out both are running in 32bit, with FS operating in full screen mode at 1024x768x32 (the highest resolution my 15" monitor will sustain).Many thanks, though. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Hello all,I did a search on the forum and saw that the solution that is being offered to remedy my problem is a popular one - unfortunately, it doesn't seem to be working for me.Around all lights and most scenery objects, black squares are now appearing. I have an ancient 64MB GeForce 2Ti with the 45.23 drivers from nVidia installed, and the problem began occurring only when I installed these particular drivers. I have tried to download and install previously issued drivers from nVidia, but Windows XP is "strongly recommending" that I abort installation each time.Here are two pictures of what I mean:http://forums.avsim.net/user_files/35534.jpghttp://forums.avsim.net/user_files/35536.jpgAgain, the solution that I've read about has had to do with Texture Sharpening being enabled; mine is and has been disabled. Here are the current settings:Image Settings: QualityAntialiasing Settings: Application ControlledAnisotropic Filtering: OffHardware acceleration is activated within the simulator, and I am running it in 1024x768. I am relatively illiterate when it comes to graphics and the inner workings of my PC, so any help is VERY much appreciated.:-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Hi bkircher,Before this post gets locked or deleted, I figure I should let you know what's up: the image is too big, and it's illegal to post an Airliners.net picture (a link is okay, though).You'd be better off asking on the General Forum, although I think I remember Rick painting one a while back....-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

I too would like to know if it's possible to remove the reflection on the ground. I think it's a huge step in the right direction to have that reflection, but it would be nicer still if it flashed rather than rotated. :-)-TRhttp://www.itn.net/gif/itn/[email protected]

Thank you so much, Michael - you are a wizard!:-)-TRhttp://www.imagemagician.com/images/toreilly/[email protected]

Hello all,I have the new GMAX United Airlines Ariane 737-322, and I absolutely love it. Rarely does a day pass when I am not in its cockpit, which has been merged beautifully with the Dreamfleet panel and sounds. The new paint that they have put on the aircraft is infinitely better than the first version, and I love the reflective textures. However, the metallic front of the engines is seemingly chrome, which is not at all what the actual aircraft looks like.Does anyone know of a way that I can get that front piece of the engine to be non-reflective, whilst keeping the rest of the reflective textures intact? Thanks to anyone who can help me. :-)-TRhttp://www.imagemagician.com/images/toreilly/[email protected]

Hi Pete,Open up Internet Explorer (not the MSN explorer you use), and go to View/Text Size/Medium.Every once in a blue baboon that happens to me too, who knows why. :-)-TRhttp://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/[email protected]

You can download ServInfo 1.31 here: http://avsim.com/hangar/utils/servinfo/home.htmIt is a tool that shows you who is online, and where. It's a fantastic little program, and there is now a way to integrate it into your panels, so that while flying on VATSIM in FS2002, you won't have to leave the window or type ".atis callsign" to get to the next controller. You simply highlight the controller of choice and click "Tune." What I just told you is a separate bonus part of ServInfo, the main program is what you are really looking for.Here is a shot of what it looks like. I have details on San Francisco Intl. showing in this picture:http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3d632a9816b53110.jpgAgain, if any of this makes no sense, don't hesitate to say so! :-)-TRhttp://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/[email protected]

If you use ServInfo 1.31, you can tune to a controller's RW frequency by selecting his name and pressing "Join."Hope this helps, and if it doesn't, just say what doesn't make sense and I'll be back! :-)[email protected]

Hi, Sean-I really wish that I could be taking full advantage of your hard work, but I seem to be doing something wrong. I read through the README and thought that I did everything correctly, putting the aircraft folder into the FS2002 aircraft directory, and I even replaced the old CSL file in my Squawkbox directory with your new, improved one.Here's a screenshot of what I'm getting when connected to VATSIM:http://ftp.avsim.com/dcforum/User_files/3d2a77c44b68e617.jpgThe same thing is happening with UAL, DAL, etc., so it isn't strictly an AWE issue.Would you mind please giving me a step-by-step procedure so that I can view the true fruits of your [email protected]

Thanks so much for the links - now, if I can only figure out how to make this all work, I'll get into it. Are you aware of any tutorials for a lame-o first-timer like [email protected]
