Great Idea Roger!It's been a long time since the Fly! ll forum has had any activity.Mike

Garik,You have to send me your email address inorder for me to send you the patch.Mike

Garik,Email me your email address and I will send you a copy of the 240 patch.Go to my personal link and click email.Mike Gezing

Hi Rakham,Glad to see that you have Fly! II up and running, as far as extras are concerned they are all very good. I find that there are more then I have time to use. You need to see what is available in the area that to like to fly.Mike

Hello Rakham,You will need to down load the 2.50.240 patch for the Mac. See the "pinned" topic above this one for more information.Mike

Rakham,Fly! II runs very well under OS 10.5. I have an Intel iMac and have no problems.Mike

I am inquiring if anyone has been able to get the ROTW Mustang to work on a Mac. I have found a thread dating back to Mar. 10 2003 that Matt Horridge was looking for testers for the Mac version. Does anyone know what has become of this project?Thanks, Mike

Randall, I have a new 24" iMac with a 2.8 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor. Video is a ATI Radeon HD 2600 Pro, VRAM 256 MB. I get fabulous frame rates with a fully patched version of Fly!II. I did ask this question years ago on the Mac forum. Frank T. told me the transparent setting will not work on Mac he did not know about it working on a PC. I thought that maybe someone had come up with a fix.Mike

Hello Randall,I would like to know how you are able to make the Vector Window transparent. Checking transparent does not work for me, I am using a Mac could that be the problem or is there some other setting that has to be changed?Thanks, Mike

Steve A Mac Fly II user checking in.Regards, Mike

MaxI really do not have a clue as to what the problem is.Can you teleport to another airport with these scenery files loaded and before you start you aircraft?In the fly.ini file make sure that you have:searchpodfilesfirst=0allowdebuginfo=1Mike

DonnyI did not know it was possible to go beyond 85 degrees north or south latitude.Mike

Hi MaxIf I understand you correctly, presently you have no extra model files loaded on Fly II and it launches OK. If you load any of the add-on model files Steve's or Biber's for example Fly II will crash for you as soon as you start up. Is this correct? Do you get any error message when this happens?Mike

Max,The biber pod and Steves models pod work just fine on a Mac. Just make sure that you install them correctly.Mike

Allan,I am using the same joystick as Paul is and also running under OS 10.3.2.However my G4 flatpanel iMac has only 32MB of video memory so my frame rates range between 10 -18 fps most of the time.I had no problems with the setup of the joystick.Mike

Steve,Wishing you a very fast recoverey from your illness.We need people of your abilities on this Forum.Regards, Mike

Wayne,I sim Fly II on a flat panel iMac so frame rates are a problem for me. I can put up with on take-offs from a scened airport, but for landings I need to set the scenery setting to sparse. I have some other airports in mind I'll contact you later.Mike

Wayne, thanks for KUGN Waukegan Regl., this really adds to my little corner of the Midwest. If you don't mine the question, how long does it take to scene an airport of this size?Regards, Mike

My thanks to all involved in bringing this aircraft to the minority of Fly II buffs using Macs. A beautiful aircraft. Thanks for thinking of us.Mike

Libby-PilotYou must restart you computer under OS 9. Go to System Preferences, Start Up Disk and restart under OS 9. Then you should be able to open Fly2K.Mike

Chris,After you open the download, manually replace each of the files as required in the Fly II folder. Remove the original one and then replace it with the one from the download. This works for me all the time.Mike

John,More details on the type of testing that you have in mind. I am willing to help if I can, I have the time.Mike G.

Paul, Thanks for the information. I am currently running Fly II under OS 10.1.2 but need to up grade to at least 10.2 for some new software that I want to install. Your information makes me think that I should try and find a copy of 10.2 Jaguar instead of 10.3 Panther and install that instead. I could also do what you are considering, using an external drive or partition the hard drive and install both versions. I will have to check with Mac Tech support and Logitech about future joystick compatibilty with the new operating systems. People at the Mac store have no answer. One more question. How would you compare the frame rate on your new G5 to your old computer for Fly II?Mike G.

Paul,OS 10.3 is Panther. Do you mean that Fly II ran OK under OS 10.2.6 which is Jaguar?Mike G.

Is anyone presently running Fly II under OS 10.3 and if so how is it performing?Thanks in advance,Mike G.
