Hi Hans, I'm not quite sure I know what you mean? For example, I am going to be doing a new AIG Korean Air flightplan for AI soon, but when looking at it, as we know, they have a new livery, but the only 787 ai models I have for FS2004 are the FSP ones, but all I can find are repaints for the AIG model for MSFS in the Korean Air new livery. There are some in the new livery like TFS and FAIB, but that's about it. I hope you know what I mean. Thanks Dave YVR for your cooments on the camera views in MSFS. I do have MSFS2020, so I may try flying in it a bit more to get more used to it lol. Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good afternoon, I am noticing more and more these days that some of the great ai repainters are only doing repaints in specific models like AIG (mostly) and some FSP. For someone that uses FS2004 mostly, trying to get repaints of new airlines liveries for models such as the FSP 787 even the FSP A350 is getting more and more difficult. They are mostly UTT or AIG. I notice that when a new model comes out, a lot of repainters just start doing only repaints for that model and forget about other older models, it feels like some flightsim communities are being forgotten, which then doens't make it feel like that much of a community. I know it may be time consuming, but if they just did them for FSX in DDS, I and I'm sure many people, can easily to BMP from DDS for FS2004, as I have been doing for years. We don't all have MSFS 2024 and have thousands of £s or $s to spend on a new simulator and all the addons and aircraft. There are still a few good repainters out there that do some new livery repaints for older models but not all. It's a shame, as I feel like I have no choice but to save up get MSFS 2024 now. I don't like how to spot view works in MSFS 2024 with it floating all over the place, I prefer a fixed spot view like the old FS2004. If anyone can let me know if there is a way to have a fixed external spot view in MSFS2024, then I may be more inclined to buy it! I look forwrad to any repleis. Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good morning everyone, I wanted to know if anyone could help me or tell me how to change the beacon fx file for the Project Airbus A380 two top beacons which uses the FS9 beacon fx? I would like to make them flash in unison (so they're sync together) as in reallife but have noticed that on my model the two red top beacons flash independently, one then theother? I have been messing around with the fx files but cannot seem to get it right. Any help would be much appreciated Kind Regards Gavin Moss

Hi Ed, Thanks for your reply, I'm not quite sure how to change them? If I only have one line in my lights section of the aircraft cfg, won't that only show one light? I am a bit confused Thanks Gav

Good afternoon everyone, I was wondering, does anyone know the strobe fx rate setting or how to make the A380 tail strobe flash in time with the wing strobes? I find the default flashes reallyquickly. I have tried changing the strobe fx file rate but can't seem to get it quite right. Look forward to any help. Kind Regards Gavin Moss

Good evening everyone, I'm looking to see if anyone can help me please. I have Project Airbus A380 in FS9 and noticed that the gear compression is not as compressed as in real life? I have tried to change the contact points and the static compression part in the contact points, but unlike any other aircraft I have done this too, nothing changes and the compression stays the same? I am not sure how I can change it if this method does not work? I'm not sure how I can add the screenshots that I have onto here? I look forward to any reply Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good evening, I'm currently slowly moving over from FS9 to FSX (with a few problems on the way lol) and have recently bought Ultimate Traffic 2 for FSX to use until I get my AIG flightplans all updated and installed. Whilst using UT2, I have started to install some of the latest AIG flightpans into FSX and so have unticked those airlines in UT2 so I don't have duplicates. Today I installed AIG British Airways Winter 2015/2016 flighplans and the repaints using AIFP2, and therefore unticked BA in UT2. When I went into FSX and loaded up Heathrow to check the repaints were all ok, I noticed that there were no BA aircraft anywhere? I've checked the World/Scenery folder and the AIG traffic bgl for BA is there? I'm not quite sure why the BA traffic are not displaying but I have a suspicion that it is something to do with Ultimate Traffic 2? Has anyone else had this same kind of problem? Look forward to any replies Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good afternoon, I'm installing some AI flightplans for FSX and wondered if I can use my DJC A319 from FS2004 in FSX or is there a different model basepack that I need to use? It's because I'm installing British Airways and one of the A319's is in the Dove livery which I cannot find for the FAIB model. I look forward to any help. Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good afternoon, I'm in the process of changing everything over to FSX. I'm trying to install the Project Airbus A319, A319 and A320 as instructed by Project Airbus. I have all the model updates but have a problem with the strobes and nav lights, they do not appear at all? I looked at the aircraft config file and noticed under the lights section it has these entries: [Lights] light.0=3, -57.70, 0.00, 4.70, fx_navwhi320pa , light.1=2, -57.75, 0.00, 4.70, fx_strobe2320pa , light.2=1, 6.8, 0.00, -5.80, fx_beacon320pa , light.3=1, 3.83, 0.00, 8.47, fx_beacon320pa , light.4=4, 20.11, 0.00, 4.00, fx_vclight , light.5=5, 12.570000, -10.48, -5.81, fx_PAland , light.6=5, 12.570000, 10.48, -5.81, fx_PAland , I do not have these FX files and they are not in the effects folder of the FSX model update download folder either so how can I get them if anyone knows? Look forward to any replies Gavin Moss

Morning all, Hiroshi has had a look but doesn't know how to fix this problem either so I'm still looking for some help on this. Kind regards Gavin Moss

Hi, Thanks for having a look, I know what you mean lol. Though in FS9 I changed the static compression and it looked and worked fine but in FSX it doesn't? I tried the same with one of my SSP 767-300ER and in FSX it was fine, the compressed static values stayed the same as in FS9 so it's only a problem with the TDS 787 that I have and can't figure out why it won't change? Hiroshi who modelled the TDS 787 is having a look now I think. Gav

Heya, Yeah the gear is too high hence why in FS9 I compressed the gear but can't in FSX. Cheers for having a look for me Gav

Hi there Charliearon, I redownloaded the tds 787 base pack and used the updated tds model files for fsx. Everytime I've changed the contact points in FS9 they worked, and earlier I coped one of my Project Airbus A320 from FS9 to FSX and the contact points stayed the same, its only the tds 787 so far that I cannot change in FSX even though I could in FS9. I'm completely stumped by it Kind regards Gavin Moss

Good evening, I have recently starting changing over to FSX and have come across a problem. I have TDS 787 in FS9 and changed the contact points to lower the gear compression on the main landing gear which worked fine. In FSX for some reason this doesn't work and I'm not sure why? No matter what the value I change it to, the gear height remains the same and it doesn't compress like it did in FS9? I've tried the TDS support page on Facebook but not really got anywhere so far. Is there something in FSX that I am probably unaware of as I'm new to FSX If anyone can help it would be much appreciated. I look forward to any replies. Kind Regards Gavin Moss

Hi Ed, I got it working so came out of the sim, went back in and not working properly again argh lol Gav
