Hi there, I have installed in Flight Sim X Acceleration, AI Tracker X after buying the Payware Software, And would like to do Formation flying, you can do this with this software. What I have been struggling with, is I want to fly a Avro Lancaster in Flight Sim X Acceleration, and I want a Spitfire and Hurricane to join with me in Mid Air. Has anyone else on this forum, installed that software and tried anything similar ? I.e. have any experience with using this software, and can help me achieve my goal with some good instructions ? Ideally I would like the join to happen at a certain point when I am in the air, i.e. when I retract the gear of the Avro Lancaster after a low slow pass. I.e. have the fighters chase and join up. I would like to record this process. I have not managed to get the fighters to do this, after trying a few things. Any help and info would be much appreciated. Regards Eddie Winch

I really recommend, people downloading and installing, the NL2000 Team's NL2000V3se "se" meaning "Special Edition" if you havn't allready. It took me ages to download, it took many hours and leaving the download running, one time all night, and another time for over 12 hours. But I am really glad I did. Because it really is a very impressive, scenery package. So much detail ! Factories, Wind turbines, elcectricity pylons, Helipads, Airports, and very detailed rivers and Photoreal Scenery, including many buildings too and major cities in Holland. Also an amazing AI package, including AI boats, including Ferries and Hovercraft sailing from Rotterdam port etc. And AI Military Aircraft and Jets, F16 Jets from Leeuwarden, Lockheed Orions from Valkenburg etc. and AI Helicopters flying around, including Chinooks and AH64 Apache's ! and more ! And there is a menu, which allows you to enable and unable different Scenery AI etc, to help improve frame reates, on lower end computers. So it does take ages to download, but it is definately worth it. And make sure you backup the files, in case you lose them. Eddie Here is the Website Link to the Download Page, for this Package :- https://www.nl-2000.com/2009/12/nl2000-version-30-special-edition-download-instructions/

I have found the Package in question, in the FS2002 section in the File Library, so it was on avsim.com afterall.

Hi Dave, Yes the reason I decided to download that package. Is that I couldn't find an Air Jamaica repaint, from the more modern AI Airliners groups. I.e. The Fruit Stand, AI Aardvark etc. For an Airbus A340-300. Only for an FSPainter A340-300. If anyone knows of a more modern one available, could they tell me where I can download it from ? Another A340 version, would be fine. It doesn't have to be an 300 series A340.

Hi there, I wanted to download the following, FSPainter's Airbus Base Files Package :- ai_airbus_complete_120685.zip But when I did a search for it, here on AVSIM.com after doing an Extended Search, in the File Library. The .zip File in question, doesn't appear to be there, even though it is supposed to be. Can someone tell me, another website I can download it from? Any help would be much appreciated. Regards Eddie

Hi HighBypass, Many thanks for taking time to reply to my posts it's much appreciated. I have the same problem with a number of Propellor Payware Addon Planes, when I run Flight Sim 98 in Vmware Workstation now. I think me running Windows 98 as Vmware File in Vmware is what is causing the problem, rather than the files for the Planes. What I am trying to do now, is do a proper full install of Windows 98 in Dosbox V 0.74 in my Windows 7 64 bit. The procedure is rather tricky, but it is possible according to what I have read. I have been struggling to achieve it, but when I have done that. I will install FS98 again in Windows 98, and the Payware Aircraft Addons, and run FS98 and I will let you know if that problem no longer occurs. But also in Vmware Workstation running FS98 I will do what you have suggested, if the problem still occurs. Best Wishes from Eddie Winch ))

Hi HighBypass, Many thanks for your reply I really do appreciate it. Yes Vmware Workstation allows you to run older versions of Windows in modern Windows. I suppose you could call it an Emulator then. I am using keyboard controls not a Joystick. I did try something before, as an experiment. I downloaded an Freeware Hawker Fury for Flight Sim 98 at www.simviation.com. and used the aircraft.cfg file, from that instead of the original for the Payware RAF 2000 Addon Hawker Fury. Now the Aircraft will respond to throttle inputs and will fly. I have found the same problem with a few other RAF 2000 Addon Prop Planes too. Could you suggest what could be wrong in the aircraft.cfg File of these Planes to cause the stated problem, and what it should be changed too ? Hope you can help me, I would really appreciate it if you could. Best Wishes From Eddie Winch

I have recently been playing Flight Sim 98, for a bit of nostalgia, running it in Windows 98 in the program VMware in my Windows 7 64 bit. However I recently bought the RAF 2000 Payware Addon pack for FS98. And whilst most of the Aircraft work, I am having problems with a few a few of them. Two of those Aircraft that I am having problems with, are the Hawker Hart and Hind. I create a flight, and select the Plane and Airport, It loads all views are there including the instrument Panel. And the propellor is turning and I have the sound, however when I apply power even full power, with the brake off, the Sound remains the same and the plane remains stationary, I am not sure which other Aircraft that applys to, the throttle quadrant shows the lever going up. But the Aircraft doesn't move, no matter what power setting I use. Could anyone on this forum suggest to me what is causing the problem, and how I can fix it ? Any help and information from somebody, would be much appreciated.
