Hi; I realise that you are quite proficient at FS9, however i have a solution that worked for me in very similar circunstances. I had played with my scenery cfg. file and messed it up quite badly. I moved it from the fs9 folder and renamed the old scenery cfg. to just scenery and my problems at KSEA and surrounding areas went away. Worth trying for you maybe. Regards David

Hi Captain; I did a very similar thing and fixed it. Thanks for the input. Cheers, Dave

Hi; Does anyone know where to get the updated prop textures for the WOAI AC Jazz pkg. Have a query in at WOAI but visitors there seem to be few and far between. Thanks Dave

Hi; A few questions about this scenery. Never having used Latin VFR scenery before i am very impressed with KMIA. The Miami scenery however seems to be fantastic in the daytime, however i seem to have an issue at night. Not all of the buildings appear to be illuminated they seem to flicker depending on the view i am using.

Hi Joe and Paul, I have found the culprit and it is Gap Seaplane bases 2008 V2. Hope to find a solution soon as i like flying the Gap Sceneries.. I'll take your advice though Paul and just re-activate Gap when i wish to fly there. Thanks again David

Hi all, When i use the filter airports option in fs9 evey state i choose show all the airports in that state. When i choose United States and Texas nothing changes, if i just looked at Maine for example all the airports are there, and then switch to Texas the state/ province box stays on Maine. Any ideas, just noticed this this morning. Nothing new added or removed in ages. Thanks, David

Hi Rafal; Thank you as well, I have used Inspector before and i was using Nvidia driver version 280 something and found my system to be unstable. I rolled back to my previous drivers 270.61 and then when i went to Inspector that was when i discovered that fs9.exe was not in it's usual place in the green area below the profiles box. Cheers DavidJust an update got it fixed. Thanks again to all, David

Hi Barry; thanks for the reply. I have the proper MS Flight Sim 2004 and all the other stuff in it's right place , it's just that in the area which is normally green just under the MS Flight stuff it usually shows fs9.exe. That is not there. Any other ideas?, Thanks David

Hi; If this doesn't belong here please let me know. I'm trying to set up inspector and when i do it fails to show my exe in the area where it shouldbe. Have tried the registry repair tool and that doesn't make any difference. any ideas i can try. thanks David

Hi, I had the same problem and i solved it by moving the LGIO scenery around in the fs9 scenery library. If you have any other GAP scenery try putting LGIO below any other Gap scenery. ie; a higher number. Hope this helps.There are 2 or 3 dozen featureless 2001: A Space Odyssey-like monolithic slabs (in various shades of gray) surrounding and among the buildings in GAP's LGIO scenery. This problem is similar to one I had with several Australian scenery files because I had neglected to place several Airport 2.6 textures files in the main FS2002/texture folder (the structures in this case being made up of two slabes forming an "X"). As soon as I copied the missing Airport 2.6 texture files in the FS2002 texture folder the featureless structures turned into trees. I suspect that the problem with GAP's LGIO scenery might be similar but I copied the same missing Airport texture files to FS2004's main texture folder at the same time I copied them into FS2002's texture folder. Apparently, either the texture files that are suppose to give these structures in the GAP LGIO scenery are either missing or corrupted. The problem is I have no idea what files I need to fix the problem. Any help would be appreciated! -
Here,is a shot of my aircraft in the dark. Seems to illuminate okay. Unless i,m missing something here.

Hi; Does anyone know of a solution for floating nav and strobe lights on this aircraft. when on the ground they hover above the wing tips and when altitude is gained they rejoin their proper place.

I too made the mistake of buying the 787 from Abacus. I concur with Alec. Never again will my wallet grace their doorstep. Chin up, the CamSim is not bad.I have just purchased the Dream Liner from Abacus. What a botched job. First flight no airspeed tape. Checked with Abacus support site. Need update No2. Flight dynamics awaful in pitch on autopilot. No OBS adjustments thatI can find.Anyone else had any better experiences or is just me? -
Hello Gus, I too would enjoy those effects. Please PM. Thanks, David
Hello,PM's sendRegards.Gus. -
Hi Geoff; Thanks for the info, I tried some of your suggestions and then stumbled across some Ontario landclass from Flight Ontario. Installed it and presto no more square. Probably not the optimum solution but it works. Thanks again. David
What does the grey block look like up close? My thoughts are either it is a bit of photoscenery (an airport?) where the base texture is missing or a rogue afcad file from somewhere with a large block of apron material...I'd start by testing which scenery layer is responsible and then you'll have a better idea of what you're trying to fix. Look in the scenery library and systematically disable likely sceneries (start with things in the area and new additions), checking to see what it looks like in FS each time. If, like me, you have long FS load times due to lots of installed aircraft, the trick I use is to have a folder called aircraft-x in which I just have copies of the default aircraft and use a batch file to rename the folders 'aircraft' to 'aircraft-y' and 'aircraft-x' to 'aircraft' (and another to go back again) so that I can have fast loading times for scenery / error testing.Hope you get it sorted.Geoff -
Hi; Can any one suggest what could be the problem here. Only UT Can/AK, GE Pro and DiFranco CYYZ Installed in this area. Please see attached screen. Thanks for any input

Hi David and fellow simmers; Heard back from Don and here is what he says Hi, David. CYYJ can only be compatible with one or the other at a time. You should use the Scenery Library method to control compatibility if you want to be able to run with either. When you check "No, thanks; I'll use the Scenery Library method", the radio buttons should turn to checkboxes, and you may select both. DonHope this is helpfull to any body else. All the best DavidHmnnn...... I see why you are confused.Other than just "trying" it (one way or the other), you might drop Don an e-mail first (his address is in the file).I have found Don very willing to clarify such issues.If you do get a response, you might want to post what he suggests here in case anyone else has the same or similar question. -
Hi David I Have UT and Vic+ and Van+ I just don't know whether to check UT and then uncheck it and check VIc+ before installing. Seeing that you can't have both checked at once. ThanksThe instructions seem very clear to me.First question -- do you have any of the "enhancements" installed which Don lists?If not, then nothing needs to be checked.Please clarify what you actually have installed. -
Hi; Don Grovestines cyyj 2010 has an auto installer and some compatibility files for UT and VIc+. if you use the installer you have the option to select one of UT or Vic+ apparently not both. The instructions read as follows." Otherwise, check the add-on(s) with which you want CYYJ (2010) to be compatible. Except for FS9 add-ons BC Roads and EVI Shorelines, only one add-on may be checked; to select another, you must uncheck the first. If you don't check any, CYYJ will be compatible with the default Flight Simulator." Should one be checked then unchecked and then the other checked before finishing with the install. Thanks for any hep. David

Hi; I currently use 3D lights Redux and I'm wanting to buy Zinertecks Ultimate Airport Pack. Will it overwrite the runway and taxiway lights of 3D Redux. Thanks David

Hello again Gus, Thank you for all the info. Very ,very helpfull. I'll try what you suggest. Thanks again, DavidHello,I modified the aircraft.cfg for the Wester repaint like this:Note:You will have two DC-10-30 for choiceui_manufacturer=DC10-30FIs a personnal choice .. no relevant :)I use also the Shockwave 3D lights ..This is the setting for the lights:And this added in the panel.cfgSeem's to me the logo lights stay on ... when landing lights off ....Regards.Gus. -
Hi; the file name at flightsim is fiwa103.zip thanks for your interest. DavidHello,Can you provide me the file name of one of the repaint you try to use ?Regards.Gus. -
Hi Gus; Thank you very much for the info. Will look into your suggestions Thaks again, DavidHello,Will test it !Anyways I can already assume it's not a texture (repaint problem)Are you sure you add only texture for the exact same model (it's different models from SGA for this particular aircraft)Edited:If you check the aircraft.cfgyou read for the air file:sim=FFXDC1030ERSo you must have exactly the same with the texture you add (in the TXT from the texture to add in the aircraft.cfg)On a other hand:If you check the files in the model folder you readsga1030f.mdlSo you must be sure the additional texture is for a F model !This is a sample of a repaint no good for your aircraft ....You can check all this easy in each addon textures simply by clik "view" in Flightsim library or clik Zipdrive in the Avsim library ..BTW in the Emirate aircraft.cfg it's a small error .. as it's 2 entries for the smoke chapter .. so better delete one !Second editIf you check the SGA DC-10 base pack:You will not seen the same files for models and air files of your complete Emirate aircraft.So .. maybe those files are modified ones (normally not the model file) by the author as he don't use the standard SGA naming for the model and air file !!!Regards.Gus.
