  1. I'm looking for some real sounding cockpit sounds for the Feelthere airbus line vol.1. So far I only have found two in the avsim library one is an old style robot sound, and the other sounds good but seems to be missing (retard retard retard). Any good ones out there guys. Dave
  2. http://www.simw.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=d...etails&pid=2022They have a radio stack and a fmc - well sort of. I don't really care the units don't match the real thing just want them to work. Anybody have anytime on the units? Dave
  3. Jim Thanks for the help I'm not really sure what I did, but everthing is working now all the drives are mapped and AS6 found all the files it needed to run corectly. Again thanks Dave.
  4. Jim Thanks for the info well I've got the drives to map now, but when I open as6 it asking me to navigate to my fs9 folder ok I understand. So on the client pc I click on z:my mapped drive on the server then navigate to programfiles where fs9 is located , but I get access denied! I don't get it c: on the server is setup to share yet it won't allow me to access the necessary files to setup as6.Dave

  6. Jim I don't know what's going on when I try to map the network drive all I get is a popup saying ATTEMPTING TO CONNECT CLIENTNAMEHEREC.Then I get THE NETWORK PATH CLIENTNAMEHEREC COULD NOT BE FOUND. I've opened port 8002 for WideFs on both computers the client will map to the server , but the server will not map to the client. Dave

Also I don't know where the smile face came from in my previous post sorry about that the word sould be (Properties).Dave

Dave
  9. Hi JimOn the FS9/WideServer PC, I open MS Windows Explorer and from the menu, choose Tools -> Map Network Drive
  10. After reading JSKorna post setting up ASv6 with Widefs I'm having an issue tring to get the server to map z: drive so far the client pc had no problems just the server pc. I don't know what I need to post here so somebody can help so let me know and I'll post what I can.Dave

    So what's the truth? I've been reading the Level-D forums and people seem to be happy with mcp-pro yes there are issuse here and there but all in all the unit works. Dave

    Yea Baby! been waiting a long time.Dave
  14. Hi Gary one more question right now I have two monitors attached to the video card one on the vga output and one on the dvi output. Question is if I plug this third monitor in the s-video jack will windows see this monitor as a third monitor or would it still see it as my second monitor? Hope this makes sense. Dave
  15. Hi Gary Thanks for the info I will give it try and see what happens. I was thinking of using this 4 1/2" tft for the fmc hope it works. Dave
  16. Question: Is the video coming out of the s-video plug on the back of my gf6600 ntsc format? The reason I ask is a friend has a 4 1/2"tft flat panel with ntsc input ,but I'm not quite sure if this will work or not.So far I hav'nt been able to find any info detailed enough to determine if this will work. Dave

    I know there's a patch they are working on but I hav'nt heard anything for a while now their all kind of quite about it.Maybe someone else knows. To answer your question the mcp-pro sort of works , but not very well from what I read. I'm still waiting for them to sort things out before I buy one it's been a long wait so far. Dave
  18. X-keys (www.xkeys.com) usb board will do toggle swithes works just fine. Dave
  19. Just wondering what would cause a control surface to spike? for example when I begin a aileron turn to the right or left I can see the control surface jump real quick then stablize.I was thinking of dirty pots in the yoke it never used to do this before. The yoke is a usb ch yoke about 5yrs old. Thanks Dave
  20. Thanks Richard I'll drop Marty an email. I guess companys like to keep the yokes as real as possible i.e no hat switch oh well anyway thanks again for the information and have good Christmas and a happy new year. Dave
  21. Richard I forgot to ask is the hat switch on the right side also 4,or 8 way hat switch ? Thanks Dave
  22. Richard Thanks for the info sounds like a good unit only thing though does it come with a throttle? I've tried to locate an email address at the avsim store to try get more info on the unit , but can't seem to find one yet.You say PFC makes the unit maybe I'll contact them as well all though they would have nothing to do with how avsim is selling the unit. Dave
  23. Hi guys Just wondering if the Vmax yoke that Avsim sells in their store is any good? I was looking at PFC yokes , but I here so many people having problems with hardware falures an such. Dave
  24. http://www.flightsim.com/cgi/kds?$=main/review/afcs.htm Check this review out it has one view of the inside. The yoke uses drawer slides for the pitch axis.Dave
