Hi Jim,I am not sure how but I got ASE working. Funny thing though, I tried to bring up ASA but it asked for a key, but would not take any Key I entered. Since I am using ASE now I won't worry about that.Thanks for your help.Davidl3541

Thanks Jim.DavidL3541

Hi,Here is the exception list for the ASA to ASE upgrade failure. What can I do to get ASE to work?Thank you for your help,DavidL3541See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.************** Exception

"...The v-c has every switch and knob of the real machine..." Yes, the 105 does have all the switches and knobs; however, MOST are just pictures and do not function and are not clickable. Very misleading. They also go on to say to finish the misleading statement: "v-c has every switch and knob of the real machine, but will not need a high-spec PC to run it." That is true because most are just static pictures. Pretty misleading for such an expensive add-on. To be fair the Thud has a great looking exterior. But the aircraft is worth only half the $41.00 asking price. Beware.DavidL

Hi Jim,Thanks for the fast response.Best,DavidL

Hi,I understand that ASV 6.5 is OK with FSUIPC 3.7 on FS9. When I upgrade to FSX I understand the need to go to ASV 6.5 and FSUIPC 4.0.Also, my question does not concern the obvious benefits of adding Ground Environment Pro. Could you tell me what does ASV 6.5 do beyond what version 6 does in FS9? Does it add anything or fix anything for FS9? Or is there no change as far as FS9 is concerned? I think that ASV is a great weather program.Thanks!Davidl3541

The CS C130 should be rated 5 stars without a doubt! They did a fantastic job especially with the patch. There are a very few minor issues left and most of them are listed on their forum. I feel sure they will address needed fixes. (the aircraft is so good I even hate to mention this). I think they did a really great job of turning around their customer service problems and they deserve to be praised for the improvements. I rate the CS C-130 in the top 1% of FS9 aircraft.

FYI:I got my download done shortly after my message to Jim. The program is loaded and working very well--amazingly well! The environment integration is super!Thanks,Davidl3541:-)

Hi Jim:You all are doing a great job. I only had an issue with the limited download of 10 given the problems we had -- and you folks fixed the number of downloads problem. I completely understand server overload and how that can effect files. I still haven't got AV5 downloaded yet but I do understand that I will get it off your server sooner or later. Certainly, even though I've only had AS 2004.5 for a couple of weeks, I am so impressed with it that I am eager to get the enhanced AS5. I was a long time user of FSMeteo and I was happy with that program; however AS is so good that I had to set FSMeteo aside even though it is a good and reliable Wx program.Thanks for your hard work and a fantastic product. Davidl3541 :-)

Hi:I have used all my downloads without success and the counter is now set to Zero. Please reset the counter and let me know when I can get a good download of ASV upgrade:-) :-wave DavidL3541

I can't wait for the updates! I have not had any of the problems cited by others in your maintenance board; however, it would be great to fly the 700 with the vc switches operable as they are in the 800-900 series.:-)

The Utva seems to be a top notch FS2004 freeware aircraft. I only took it up for a quick spin but it is very impressive. The 2d & 3d panels are great and so by the way is the documentation. Kudos for a great job to the team that put it together: by Goran Savic, FSDS2 model by Luka Midic. I am amazed by the quality of work in the freeware area. I have several aircraft, a mix of payware and freeware. It really makes it a pleasure to explore the newest releases. My last payware was the B-25 from MAAM and it is great. And, what about the freeware Cessna 195? What a beautiful airplane. I was so impressed with the realair Cessna 172 that I am considering the payware Super Decathlon or SF260. I don't know if this is a hobby, lifestyle or obsession with me--but who cares I enjoy it! I had to post this after reading some of the negative stuff hitting the forum.:D

Hi folks,I am getting the following error message everytime I start FS2004: "SimTracker Error: Unable to Initialize MC3 Library." The error msg pops up at the startup screen. I click it off and the sim seems to load without error. Any ideas what it is? I tried to reload the sim once but the error msg still pops up.Is this a mission control library of some type? I did notice that the sim does not accept and set a check box for "setting this as default flight" and start with that flight when I startup the sim. Anyone know what that error is and how to fix it?I am running Windows 2000 pro, NTFS, with an AMD XP1700+, ASUS A7N8X Deluxe MB, 512mb PC2100 ram, TI 4600 w/128mb graphics card. I am getting excellent frame rates of 35fps w/AA off and 24 with AA on. all the sliders are pretty much maxed out except for the frame rates which I set after analyzing the sim work under heavy cloud conditions.Sim addons: FSMeteo 6.3, FSNAV FOR 2004, Cloud fix/2, and FSUIPC 3.x. Retired AF, used to work on flight simulators and trainers.
