Just saw this on the SimStop web site and wondered if anyone else had seen news anywhere. Looks really good news! http://www.simstop.com/2014/03/31/new-flight-simulator-announced/

When in inside or outside view, hold the right mouse button down and use the mouse to look around. Gets round that problem. Also, you can assign numberpad 0 to 8 (I think it goes to 8) to preset views for each aircraft you fly. Set the view you want by using the cursor left right, up and down keys (NOT the numberpad ones) to move, then use the right click mouselook to angle how you want the view. Hold the CTRL key down then press the 1 key on the numberpad. (Numlock ON) . Do the same for any other view you want to set up. Once you have all the keys assigned, just press the number and it will jump to that view. You can then set joystick buttons with the keyboad shortcut so you can move views easily. Don't forget, mousewheel scroll zooms in and out as well.

Generally, the boxed version of a product pays for advertising and marketing the product. The download version doesn't do that. When Flight1 or Aerosoft for example, agree with a developer to publish the product in box format, the box then gets listed in catalogues, on Amazon, in retail stores etc and that brings a larger market than 'net-savvy' download customers. There is also an element of trust in users that if they purchase the box, they won't have problems with corrupted downloads, lost keys etc. Publishing a product is a team effort between a developer and a publisher.

I have just re-installed FSX from scratch, SP1 and SP2. Win7 64 Home. VoxATC worked fine before but now loading the VoxATC window and clicking enable gives a Fatal Error, disable VoxATC message in the window. Any ideas what is causing it. Had it working well before the re-install. It didn't allow me to input the license code this time as it stated already registered. Where is the license saved so I can delete it and try to re register. Thanks. Dave.

I am using Ideal Flight to create the flight. I loaded the IdealFlight.PLN file into the Sid Star Wizard and set up Lam4M as a SID and also a star at my destinattion. Now, whenever I create a flight, VoxATC always asks me to fly that SID regardless of what airport I am starting from. I have tried deleting the Ideal Flight.pln file and creating a brand new one but it always remembers that SID. Is there a manual config file anywhere to remove the entry?

MyTraffic X 5.4 Pro came out after the Audio Environment product so not sure that is compatible and I think from memory that is mentioned on the product pages. TSS can't provide any updates to Audio Environment as they had a burglary and lost everything. All computers, master files and backups have been stolen. You could try manually copying files across into the relavent folders. Also, one of the reasons for lack of sound and problems is that the FSX sound cones do not work with some onboard sound chips. You do need a proper sound card!

You will find many posts answering pre purchase questions on the official support forum. Threads have been locked when clear examples of piracy have been found. If you ask a question on the iFly General forum, it will be answered and with the money back guarantee, I don't see the point in your pay and pray statement! If you don't like the product for any reason, Flight1 refund your money. I don't see any other publisher who has that attitude, and as this forum header clearly states, THIS forum is ONLY for the freeware iFly products NOT the commercial ones.

The iFly has a General discussion section open without buying the product to answer any questions you have and other satisfied or not satisfied users will tell you what they think. Flight1 offer a 30 day money back guarantee on all their software so buy it and try it... or is it as it appears, that most posters on here would rather pirate it, then expect iFly/Flight1 to give you support?

Yeah well brah... Buy the product and registar yo bro!

Unfortunately, people who reply to 'support' questions on this forum are not helping. Users of the iFly 737NG MUSt use the official support forum to prevent piracy. The support forum has a great community there and offers far more than just technical support. If a potential purchaser wants to know anything about the aircraft, the forum has a non licensed General area for that purpose. Do NOT discuss the 737 in this forum please as I am sure this is against AVSIM rules too!.

The answer is on the registered support forum Please register for support here.

If you are having problems registering for the official support forum, please contyact Flight1. This forum is NOT for support on the iFly 737NG.

This forum should NOT be about the iFly 737 as that has its own dedicated support forum . Please register for support for the commercial products.

But you do have to admire anything that cracks down on illegal downloads. Flight sim is not a big money gaming/film/music industry and to see developers work being pirated will only kill the future developments for all flight simmers. I am fully in favour of chopping their goolies off! I hope all members of Avsim agree.

You don't state what AI package you are using, but if you read the post above, you will see we have taken these comments onboard and have already updated the UT2 sound pack to give stronger internal sounds. The other AI sound packs will be updated as soon as TSS can do them. To give you an idea of the difference, I was flying near Gatwick in cockpit view in a Cessna noise machine and a 767 came from behind and above and scared the life out of me. Maybe not realistic but effective. Please don't give up on the product as we have taken on board that some users prefer the louder sounds. Flight Xpress magazine have just published a review of the product without the sounds this month and have promised an update with the new sound pack next month, so hopefully that will confirm what I m saying.Regards.Dave.
