The update we are talking about, I guess, is the large 1803 spring update. Here FS9 runs just as fine as it did before the update. It is fast and springy. No lags or spinning circles. In fact no problems at all. However I do have issues with the update not flight sim related. I had to reinstall the anti virus software, and now I have to manually enable the software firewall on each boot. And sometimes I cannot access my NAS from Windows and need to reboot windows to make it accessible. Very annoying. Henning

Do You install over a network? Or from a NAS? Try moving the file to your pc and install from there. Henning

Not available in stores anymore unfortunately. Recently I wanted to reinstall it, but the installer failed as REX has removed Soft Clouds from their servers. I own the online installer version. I contacted their support about it and after some mails back and forth with proof of purchase they sent me the full version. Henning

Thanks for telling. I just realised I've always been using the unsecure site. I was fooled by the "secure" in secure.simmarked.com. I now changed the link to https. Henning

I have crashes when using the intersections. So I uninstalled these. Henning

Did you try installing the DirectX redistributeable package? If not its worth a try. Do a google search for the file directx_Jun2010_redist.exe. When you run it, it unpacks itself to a folder of your choice. From this folder you must execute DXSETUP.exe. Henning

Hi Sascha Some UT textures do not blend well with Evo color wise. Golf courses, cemeteries and parks stand out with a different color scheme. You think you could make Evo editions of these? Henning

Yes I can confirm they look better now :smile: . Henning

I struggled with this also for a long time after a Win 10 update back in december. I finally found the cause for this. It was Winzips File Association Helper that boots with Windows. I disabled this from booting with Windows. Problem fixed. Henning

First pic is with the Evo for UT sand texture. Second pic is with UT's own sand texture. http://postimg.org/gallery/lgkv1eae/37afb2f7/ After a look at more Evo textures I can see this same texture is also used for river banks. It may be by design then? Henning

Hi Sascha It seems the EVO sand textures for use with Ultimate Terrain are not correct. They do not show sand. Coast lines look wrong with these textures. The textures are UTSandSu.bmp UTSanSSu.bmp Thanks, Henning

The only times i've experienced a drop to 2-4 fps were when the vmem (videocard memory) got filled up so there was no memory left for extra textures. I resolved the issue by reducing texture resolution for the addon airports that had many high res textures. I used a videocard with 512mb memory at the time and that was not enough for some addons. How much vmem does your videocard have? Henning

Yep, got it. Thanks, Henning

Hi Sascha, I just sent a donation and would like to get the download link. Thanks, Henning

Bought it also. Very nice scenery. Great winter textures. On the developers website there is a free scenery of the city of Kharkiv. The screenshots on Simmarket show the airport with the city scenery installed. There are two free airfields also on the website. They look good too. Henning

A new airport in Ukraine has emerged on Simmarket. Never heard of the developer before. The screenshots look good indeed. Could be worth a buy. http://secure.simmarket.com/babich-igor-kharkiv-ukhh-2013-fs2004.phtml Henning

Are there any widescreen 2D panels available for this? Thanks, Henning

If you are a user of UK2000 please vote for FS9 i the forum http://www.uk2000scenery.org/forum/index.php?topic=8436.0 Henning

Hi Oglitch, Just send me a PM with your email address and I will send you the panel.cfg. Henning

Thank you very much Mario and Luis. You really put some effort into this. A very welcome addon for this part of the world. Henning

Thanks Luis, I just downloaded the OSM West Europe package and will take a look at it. Henning

I'm about to reinstall my FS9 on Win 7. I do not own any Flight1 products and wonder if the Ultimate Terrain series would be worth it. They are old by now and expensive. I own 100+ addon airports, mostly payware, and I wonder if there would be compatibility issues with UT. I also do not own any mesh products and no ground texture replacements either. Are there any other similar addons that I should consider? Thanks, Henning

The Garmin Trainer included with the Dreamfleet aircraft for FS9 is the old 16 bit version. Henning

Hi, I'm using the Dreamfleet B58 and A36 with Reality XP gauges on Win 7 64 bit and they work fine. The Reality XP GPS however doesn't work. You probably know this is because the Garmin Trainer is 16 bit software and that won't work on 64 bit Windows. But you can easily fit some other GPS in or use the default GPS. I've made two different setups, one that use the GPS from Friendly Panels and one that use the default GPS. In the setup that uses the default GPS I have modified the panel.cfg to replace the Reality XP GPS with a coverplate and I then use the default GPS as a pop-up just as when flying a default aircraft. In the setup that uses the Friendly Panels GPS I modified the panel.cfg to replace the Reality XP GPS with the one from Friendly Panels (GNS430 for the A36 and GNS530 for the B58). When installing the Dreamfleet aircraft when the installer prompts you to install the Garmin Trainer you can click the skip button. This prevents the Trainer from being installed, but the rest of the aircraft and the Reality XP gauges install just fine. The Friendly Panels GPS I use come from this pack: http://secure.simmarket.com/friendly-panels-gps-pack1.phtml The coverplate comes from this pack: http://secure.simmarket.com/simflyer-series-x-gns-sx.phtml The Simflyer pack also includes a GNS430 and a GNS530 that can be used in the Dreamfleet aircraft but I prefer the ones from Friendly Panels. If you want a copy of my modified panel.cfg files I can mail them to you. Henning
