For my FS 2004 Mesh perfection I use... FS Golbal SE for FS 2002 and FS 2004.(Purchased in 2006). Ultimate Terrain USA and Canada for FS 2004. Stephen Roslithberger's SRTM Global Mesh for selected regeons. Free....>>> http://simviation.com/1/fs2004terrainmesh VOZ 1.8 for FS 2004 (Free). Selective colours for different Seasons around the World. REX for FS 2004. All this makes a wonderful, realistic experience to FS 2004, compared with default! Really wonderful for VFR flights over familliar, realistic scenery! Paul...California Cruising!... B) ...! P.S...My copy of FSX is sulking in the corner of my room... ...!

Note that the User Manual In Glacier Bay v2 recommends deleting certain file areas in UT Alaska and Canada to avoid conflicts with the water, land, and objects/mesh.... Lots of guidance in the Manual. Paul... B) ...!

Very strange... Its the easiest thing in the world to get connected to Multiplayer in FS 2004 (compared to FSX, which requires the additional FS Host Client program). The FS 2004 in game Menu; > Multiplayer >...type in a correct IP Address...search...connect/join ....and you are away! No problem, providing the particular game Server is not Password protected. Try another address... Paul...FS 2004... FS Nav... :Bug: ...!

FS 2004, FSX, (and everything else!), on Windows 7 32bit*, installed in Program Files, with 2.5 GB Memory, and full Admin control..... ...never any problems whatsoever! Paul.... :biggrin: ...! * Win 7 32 bit; to run all my old 8/16/32 bit software and hardware... :Big Grin: ...!

Being a "Weather enthusiast" I set my sight distance in..>>> Menu > Weather > User Defined Weather > Custom Weather > [visibility]. I adjust my sight distance depending upon the type of weather I set up in the options menu, remembering the type of visibility I observe during real-world flights in the my local flying clubs Cessna 150/152.... Rain, Fog, Mist, Low cloud, Smoke, Dust, etc, etc... For realism I set my "clear" sight distance between 5 and 10 Miles, (sometimes as low as 3 miles, VFR permitting!), for overall realism, depending upon local conditions, (local weather forecast). "Unlimited visibility" is seriously unrealistic! Paul ......a keen Weather Watcher!... :Big Grin: ...!

Sounds like an Aircraft fitted with a Turbine engine(s). (Beech King Air, etc). Don't forget to move the Fuel Cut Off Lever(s) to "Low Idle" when at idle and ground manoeuvring to reduce the power slightly, and reduce "creep" at a standstill. Move to "High Idle" for full power take off. Paul.... B) ...!

I have always installed all my programs to default; "Program Files" in each version of Windows. With full Windows access, I have never had any problems, and the advantage is, if the program does not come with its own un-installer, it can be completely un-installed/removed, using the Windows Control Panel: Add-/Remove Programs! ..sorted!

The very distant "blurry" (not sharp) textures in my FS 2004 as I approach them, seem to accurately represent the natural conditions of; smoke, fog, rain, mist, low cloud, etc, ie: poor visibility.... ...also the restrictions of my eyesight! Sometimes, as E6 mentions, the Flight Sim sufferers from the dreaded; "Catch-up", where you are travelling faster than the scenery can load, particularly when flying fast at low level. Limitations of the processor, graphics card, memory, and HDD update speed! Sometimes I have to "pause" the Sim for a while, to allow "things" to catch-up!... :rolleyes: ...!

Blimey!... :shok: ...! Back to school again in the Cessna 172 Trainer! Lots to learn... How about trying the various lessons in FS 2004? Paul.... :Bug: ...! P.S. don't forget to dial up ATIS on the radio first, to obtain airport conditions, landing instructions, etc... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Automatic_Terminal_Information_Service

I find that most/all of the really important bits and bobs necessary to safely fly the aircraft, are mostly situated on the left-hand side of the cockpit for quick access. It certainly suits right-handers, (me), when it come to controls, radio adjustments, switches, etc. Paul..."dressing" on the right.... :wink: ... :wink: ...! .... :Big Grin: ...!

Right-hand drive.... Familiar territory for we Brits!... :Big Grin: ...! (Give way to traffic approaching from the right)... :wink: ...! Paul... :Bug: ...!
