FlyDelta

If one can prove the purchase how can they deny that though?

I've been a simmer for a few years now. However, in a recent move I managed to lose the card with my Serials on it. I called Microsoft, even provided them with pictures of the disks, codes on the disks and codes from the manual, but they we're unwilling to help me retrieve a new serial. Has anyone ever retrieved a new serial? I know there are work arounds, but I'd rather have a real license and be able to update to Acceleration, considering that I have purchased the Deluxe for a reason. Thanks for the help!

Thanks guys for all the help. Kiwiflyer, that looks like a quality product but as I said I mostly fly east coast. They didn't seem to have anything I fly in. But thanks anyways!

Ah okay sorry misunderstanding, I didn't realize it was free. I will look into it more to tonight! Thanks for the help!

TileProxy I heard is a lot of work and you need lots of space to store all of the data. Is that true? Do they sell individual areas or continents or can you buy the whole world? I fly mainly east coast of the US and Northern Europe.

Wanted to know if it's actually possible to literally have to ground textures in FS9 be the same as you would see when viewing satellite view on Google Maps or looking at Google Earth?

Looks good! Thanks for the reply, these are the helpful things that I was looking for

Wanted ask what some of you VFR pilots have for add ons, or things you have done to make you VFR flying experience more enjoyable and realistic.

Terrain Extended Radius I believe. I may be wrong but I figured I'll at least get this post a little attention as for experienced cfg editors this should be a simple answer.

The system restore meant a new reinstall of FS9 came with that right?

Check if the folders for the scenery are still in the FS9 directory

Make sure you can still at least see the names in the scenery folder and if not check to see if the folders themselves are still there.

More autogen, but still that same brown stuff after about a 1 mile radius. I know my system can handle having autogen cover to the horizon. It does in FSX, I don't see why it wouldn't here. Anyways, the photorealistic isn't very "photo real" either. Just brown muck.

It's been a while since I started a topic on this forum so let me summarize what has happened recently. After buying a graphics card because of autogen no spawning in the distance and an overall bad look on FS9 (Yes, I did all the CFG tweaks and added GEX REX GEPro all that) and did not see any improvements. So, I switched to FSX. I like the looks and all and frames are decent (10-40FPS), I miss FS9 and the fact that I am not worried about FPS and if theyre there, because I know they are. FSX seemed a little too sluggish for me. After a fresh install of FS9 I did notice better frames from when I just added the card, but still, autogen doesnt spawn until within about a mile. I have tried the tweaks to CFG and all but no cure. I am running all max and my 7750 is only at 50% and PC at 55%. One last time I will ask is there anything I can do to get autogen to spawn in about a 30 mile radius at least like FSX seems to do? All the YouTube videos of FS9 have beautiful terrain and buildings and autogen off in the horizon while I have dull, brown, blurry crap... Here you can see, nothing crisp or clear and almost NO autogen. Just brown. Once again. Even the payware airport textures seem blurred...

That's a very good system for FS9. I would reccomend a separate hard drive for FS9 but it's not required of course. If you plan on looking into FSX, however I would maybe reach at least for an i5. Check out my setup. I have a few big addons and can run FS9 @60FPS and FSX @35FPS, pretty much consistently.

If you plan on getting a new system take this as advice. The i3-2120 is a very good, cheap processor, for fast everyday use and a fluid FS9. Make sure you also back it up with a decent graphics card as well for those heavy addons. The GT9800 and entry level should do fine. I personally have a Radeon 7750 and it's relatively cheap and easily handles FS9. Although, I will probably be asking for setup help here soon as I do have a couple bugs; fixable though. Enjoy!

Ill help you out a bit if you're ready to upgrade and have a desktop that is compatible to do so.

Although I can't tell you why you, apparently, at one point had better frames, I can tell you why you don't have good frames. Although FS9 is frame rate friendly compared to FSX on lower end computers, 2GHz is simply not enough to be running FS9 and expecting smooth frames near the ground. Too much to compute with too little speed. Try getting a better system; FS9 systems won't be too expensive now days with the technology advancements and cheaper prices on older hardware.

That information is more useful. Now looking at that, I can confirm that you will most likely not be able to run FS9 with many, if any, addons. 2.2GHz is pretty modest of you plan on running airport addons and flying payware planes. If you're not worried about appearance, you could run FS9, just on the low end visuals. Enjoy!FlyDelta

Could you post your Specs instead of those ratings?

I purchased Walk and Follow and can move back in the cabin and see the wing but how do I look left or right? I know the numbers in the numberpad but that isnt permanent and I want to save the view so I can swicth back and forth in between VC and this. :) I know you use VC to set it up, but I know you can save the view and replace your spot view with the saved view and then load them into the simulator. Thanks for your help! Nico

Ive got the ERJ's and they are great. Not sure if they are killing my addons but my scenery has gotten worse... :(

Actually to be honest those scenery in the distance issue did not actually come along until about the second time I restarted my FS9. Maybe I will have to run out to get a graphics card. Thanks for your help! Nico

I havent got my Nvidia yet sorry. And Mondeoman Im not quite sure what you mean mate?

How can I do tthat? Thanks Nico
