ALL FLIGHT SIMULATOR DISCUSSIONS IN HERE

[Callum.]

You're posts are beginning to irritate me now.

What's wrong with his posts? And if you mean grammar wise, you should check yours.

[Adam!]

do dey come wid stewards adam

Yes.

But I have the blonde female cabin crew with big boobs sat in the deck with me.

[sock]

Its a joke that me and adam have "/

EDIT: exactly as he posted

[sock]

erm, I said that the gear didn't lock :)

[Liberation]

The actual paint kit? Or the actualy livary?

[Recursion]

The actual paint kit? Or the actualy livary?

I just need a kind of idea and colour skeem, my colours were damn awfull ;)

[CptBilly]

I know, that's the point of the post.

[CptBilly]

Yeah. Plus, some addons do not work properly unless you have correct activation. Happend to me before!

[cocaine]

Yeah, £16 off Amazon, brand new :D

I orginally had FSX, but because it was really bad graphics on my PC, I decided to buy FS2004.

(:

And it's good because most aircraft/aircraft textures are for FS2004.

[cocaine]

Post a screeney?

[cocaine]

that looks like its a working gear

:S

how does it look like its not locked?

[sock]

well I got told by mt first offcer lol, well i also think it shows on the cockpit gear lever.

[Technologic]

You can download something but i forgot what it was that makes the crash effects real :D It's fun making the tail shear off and trying to keep a seatdy altitude

[Recursion]

no, its so bad, its embarrasing. Im making another now, hopefully better :)

[cocaine]

nono screeney :D

[Dentafrice,]

screenie! :D

[Scania]

Screeeny please tom.

[bilm]

Yeh Hate It When People Purposly Try To Either Reck What Your Doing Or Anything Else Like That

[Scania]

I don't like you, but gosh that was a good landing, well done.

[Scania]

Ed, I wouldn't join vatsim immediately if you know very little, Do the flying lessons when you get flight simulator WITHOUT skipping. then sign up :)

[bilm]

I don't like you.

Rather Blunt Way To Put It :|

[Scania]

Hope to see you some day Adam. :rolleyes:

[Scania]

Rather Blunt Way To Put It :|

He knows I don't like him, But still, You cant criticise that landing, he done a good job.

[Callum.]

Can anyone recommend a decent, but not very expensive joystick?

[Scania]

Well, theres the

Logitech Attack 3 - Cheap, and good quality.

http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-963291-0403-Attack-3-Joystick/dp/B0000ALFC5

Or, (http://www.amazon.com/Logitech-Extreme-Pro-Joystick-963290-0403/dp/B00009OY9U/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/002-7426890-7223235?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1186526760&sr=1-1) have a look at these for yourself;

[Scania]

Im on the hunt for fs2004, I might buy it, can you pay with paypal?

[cocaine]

Theres loads on Amazon

[cocaine]

haha i use a mouse.

im too cheap to buy a joystick

[bilm]

Using A Mouse Spoils The Experience In My Opinion.

You Gotta Get A Joystick And Get In The Flying "Zone"

[cocaine]

Ew, FSX.

[Yoshimitsui]

FSx normal version and the deluxe version.

Thanks, Yoshi.

[cocaine]

the deluxe one you can be ATC in multiplayer

[You]

Nvm; Matt beat me ;)

[Yoshimitsui]

Ok thanks :) +rep.

So is that the only difference?

[bilm]

And An Extra 2 Planes Aswell

And I Think A Few Bits Of Better Scenery

[Yoshimitsui]

Ok thanks ;)

[cocaine]

Standard Vs. Deluxe?
There are two versions of Microsoft Flight Simulator X that will be available; a Standard version, and a Deluxe version.
The difference between the two versions is simple - the Deluxe version gives you more... more aircraft, more detailed airports, more missions, and more 3D cities. The table below shows a comparison of the two:


Standard: Deluxe:
Aircraft: 18 24
High-Detail Airports: 40 45
High-Detail Cities: 28 38
Structured Missions: 30+ 50+
Extra Features: N/A - Glass panel (G1000) cockpit
- Tower Controller
From http://www.horizonsimulation.com/shopuk/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=206

[Yoshimitsui]

O i see chers. I only have the normal version :(

[cocaine]

same, but ive bought FS2004.

FSX's graphics suck on my pc

[Yoshimitsui]

I can't play fsx on my computer as i ave a laptop. I think my computer would die in attempting to install it. So i need to wait for ma new PC to come to play.

[RightThen]

I got my mum the deluxe edition for her birthday.

[Scania]

Your mum plays flight simulator?

[Scania]

Using A Mouse Spoils The Experience In My Opinion.

You Gotta Get A Joystick And Get In The Flying "Zone"

Yeaahh :) Joystick makes it muchh better

[Yoshimitsui]

I got my mum the deluxe edition for her birthday.

What did she think of it?

[Scania]

can you pay with paypal?

:P ....

[Stephen]

I got my mum the deluxe edition for her birthday.

I got my mum pokemon pearl for her birthday so HA

[Yoshimitsui]

Yeah, im pretty sure you can!

[Adam!]

Hope to see you some day Adam. :rolleyes:
I will pass.

[Scania]

I will pass.

G'luck then.

[RightThen]

I got my mum pokemon pearl for her birthday so HA

That's just sad.

And she liked it. She plays it quite a bit.

[CptBilly]

Not ew if you have a good computer. :)

[CptBilly]

No point flying without a yoke or joystick. Ed, as MetroAir said, it is a good idea to with the training lessons. VATSIM is the most realistic add on for a game you will ever come across on the internet you need to know your stuff. That's why you need to read the PRC, www.vatsim.net/prc, and read and watch and fly the tutorials on FS2004.

[sock]

I don't like you, but gosh that was a good landing, well done.

thanks :)

Fine ¬_¬ there are some errors but here it is:

Very basic as it is my first one. Ill try doing a real airline next :]

[sock]

thats actually great for a first try.

[Recursion]

I need to learn how to use the Pen tool better than I can now in Photoshop :P Also the text alignment wasnt great on the right side. *plane*TFN on the tail wasn't great either.

[-::Mr.Dave::-]

How do you repaint?

[sock]

I explained it dave look on the 1st page.

[bilm]

Looks Like A Pretty Good Repain If You Asked Me, I Mean For A Firt Time Looks Good

Well Done

[Recursion]

Hello,

if you want to learn how to do a repaint you will need 2 programs, and these tutorials xD

Image tool: http://www.projectopensky.com/files/index.php?dir=paint-resources/
Photoshop (doesn't matter what version): www.adobe.com

and these tutorials:

Link: http://www.projectopensky.com/files/index.php?dir=paint-resources/&file=Painting_Lesson.zip

there is 3 PDF documents in it. They are very usefull :) Thats how I learnt/am learning/practicing.

Tom

[cocaine]

:P ....

I dno, you put your credit card details in.

[Recursion]

doubt you can with paypal as you could just claim it back?

[Scania]

Tom, some screenshots of the repaints would be good, Everybody starts somewhere, just post one x)

[Scania]

There brill for a first time tom. well done,

[bilm]

Not ew if you have a good computer. :)

Agree, I Think I'm The Only One Prefers FSX Over FS9 Here

Ha ha "LONER"

[cocaine]

Not ew if you have a good computer. :)

I have 3.07Ghz, 1GB RAM 300GB HD?


Agree, I Think I'm The Only One Prefers FSX Over FS9 Here

Ha ha "LONER"

no, i am getting FS9 tomorrow, i will prefer it to FSX

[Recursion]

I have :P Check my thread!!

[CptBilly]

He is saying himself as a loner being the only one that likes FSX. And no that isn't a good computer...thought I'd let you know. :) You need Duo or Quad core, HD space doesn't affect it in the slightest so stop showing off with that. Ghz is good but you can't run a game off of good Ghz. You need 3GB Ram not 1. Nice graphics card would be good like the GeForce 8800GTX Ultra 768MB memory. That's good for FSX.

I wasnt showing off i was telling you my pc specs

and i already know that FSX runs crap on my pc.. no need to remind me about that as well!?

[bilm]

Rofl, now now calm down guys

Yeh one of the main things you should tell us is your graphics card makes the world of difference.

[Antony]

Yes, he maybe can fly on flight simulator, because flight sim is much different to real life. But even sam flying a cessna in real life he probably could not do, no flaps, no can do.

I'm 12 callum.

You and Adam really should stop being so harsh on the Metroair guy. All he did was post a screenie and because its not done to perfection you both decide to slate him? Jesus it's a SIMULATOR, not real life. No-one is trying to say he's making a landing in real life so you both need to really lay off and chill with the flight simulator thing, because you're taking it very very seriously.

[Adam!]

Ant it is very very serious, we have virtual passengers to worry about!!!

EDIT: My post count is so LUSHHHHHHHH 777!!!!!!!!! :D

[Adam!]

I present you with http://www.flightsimhelp.com/

Feel free to post, infact please do! :D

August 2007 Competition

Liberation and I have taken it upon ourselves to start a monthly screenshot competition, each month will have its own theme and you must follow the guidelines given. There will be a winner each month, who's name will be shown in this thread.

We are looking for both an editted and uneditted picture to win.

So August's thread, we were thinking what theme would be fitting, until we finnaly came up to what we thought would be quite a nice theme as it opens up alot of oppertunities for you to get your creative juices flowing.
With all the hype from the all new A380 and its outrageous design we felt it was taking the limelight off Boeing and their strifes. So this months theme will be simply 'Boeing'.

GUIDELINES :

The picture can be taken either in the air or on the ground.
The picture can be either in the cocpit or and external picture.
It MUST be any of the Boeing fleet, from any airline.
The picture must be less then 1MB.


Get posting, theres not long of the month left!

[Yoshimitsui]

Looks good. I'll join ;)


Why is the Announcements set to private lol:S

[Dan!]

Looks good. I'll join ;)


Why is the Announcements set to private lol:S

dont ask me tbh :P

[Yoshimitsui]

lol ok. Whos the one who set it up :P

[cocaine]

dont ask me tbh :P


.. he didnt.

:P

and i registered.

[Dan!]

.. he didnt.

:P

and i registered.

Fixed :D

[Stephen!]

Why does it have to be under 1MB? What about us who run flight sim at higher detail and higher reseloutions?

[Yoshimitsui]

Very kind of you :)

[cocaine]

You could rename this thread as "The best PC specs win"

[Recursion]

Ill get a couple in FS2004 tomorrow :]

[bilm]

Heres My Attempt =]

[Stephen!]

You could rename this thread as "The best PC specs win"

Yeah, really. But now you've said that, people with all the eye candy on the models and scenery have a less chance of winning.. But here's my attempt anyway.




It seems like everybody has the same idea with what type of shots they're going to do :P Dusk shots with the plane side-on.http://i19.tinypic.com/4xolwkk

You can see the south coast of England.

[bilm]

Think I Need To Save THat Picture In A Different Format Its "Shocking"

[cocaine]

Even though I was complaing if (hopefully) FS2004 arrives later today I'll get some screenies from there.

[CptBilly]

I'm all signed up! :)

[Scania]

http://www.uploadz.co.uk/792comp.png

My entryy.

[Stephen!]

That's cool but i don't think that's a Boeing.

[Scania]

That's cool but i don't think that's a Boeing.

ROFL, Sorry. I forgot ^^ Okayy It had to be the time I had a no rear end gear landing, dont know what happened.

http://www.uploadz.co.uk/162untitled '.b'm'p

[Neil]

This is a nice idea and all but what are you judging the pictures on? How they've taken the picture or will quality be involved aswell, I think it might be unfair as some people will have much better computers than others and maybe a newer version of the game, I'm not sure what versions there are but if you're judging by quality aswell maybe a few more restrictions will need to be applied, if not then I suppose all is well aslong as everyone is judged fairly I suppose

[Scania]

http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=Zb-Z2EbDWco

Its me flying, Was fighting with a full speed crosswind, crash mode on.. I think I done not a bad job.. I can tell you that it DIDNT tail scrape, I looked back on the video in a closer frame.

Comments welcome.

[Neil]

Looks like the tail did because it looked like a bit of a spark coming off the back xD

[Recursion]

Power sliding down the runway LOL

[Neil]

Power sliding down the runway LOL

I'd feel sorry for the passengers rofl xD
Easy way to make brown underwear I guess

[CptBilly]

Wow. It looks like your airline have gotta pay a lot of money to get that aircraft fixed.

[Recursion]

I'd feel sorry for the passengers rofl xD
Easy way to make brown underwear I guess

haha :P People will have other problems too aswell :P

[Recursion]

oh ****. I forgot, i was about to use a spitfire but i have to use a boeing >=[ and now i cant use my 787 Dreamlander because it uses to much system resources up!!

[CptBilly]

ROFL, Sorry. I forgot ^^ Okayy It had to be the time I had a no rear end gear landing, dont know what happened.


Eek. I'd hate you to be my pilot. Gear failures, engines failures.

You didn't say limited to one entry per person so here are my 3 shots in the Boeing 787 Dreamlander...

http://www.***********.co.uk/FS9/dream

Theyll be uploaded in about 4 mins because they are bmp.

EDIT: Uploaded :)

[sock]

it looked like you should of gone more throttle tbh, how come u always havce mega crosswind as well? I can't really judge if it was a tailscrape, but a bit of a bad landing.

[sock]

shut up, its not just about this post u idiot, why are you judging when you never visit this part of the forum reguraly.

[cocaine]

yay it came :D

im uninstalling FSX

[Neil]

I took another look and from the angle it looks like it goes a tiny bit above so it JUST missed the floor all the smoke is from the tyres xD

Oooo, in that case:

i can safely say if i were on that plane i'd need new underwear.

[Liberation]

Will try take some more later.

[bilm]

Yeah Im Signed Up Already Too

[Easyjet]

UPDATE

Because I can not edit my post's I am going have to put some updates on a seperate post.

The size of the images , previously 1mb has now been lifted to whatever size you want.

For those saying how people with the better PC specs will win, I am not rewarding people who have better graphics at all, it is more what they have managed to cpature in the image and what angle they have gone for and such forth, not the smoothness of the airplane.

Please continue to get posting, the entry's so far are looking GREAT!

I would also like to add that there is NO limit as to how many shots you want to post, as the fS fanbase isn't amazingly huge on habbox forum.

[CptBilly]

Oh, in that case.

Here is another with me, Iberia, and a Thomson 738 just ahead of me both on the same STAR.

http://img455.imageshack.us/img455/7342/ibetomgctsej1.th.png (http://img455.imageshack.us/my.php?image=ibetomgctsej1.png)

http://img455.imageshack.us/img455/1203/canariansunriseap0.th.png (http://img455.imageshack.us/my.php?image=canariansunriseap0.png)

I keep my images small in thubmnails. :P

[Easyjet]

Nice flicks.

Right what I was thinking is I'll leave it to you guys to decide how you think the final judging should be done, there are two options;


Option one is jus I will choose the winning image and that will be the winner
Option two is that I will choose 4 or 5 of the best picture, that I think and then make a voting thread . using a poll for you lot to choose the overall winner.

[Dan!]

Good Hope you all post on their :D

[CptBilly]

Option Two! :) More fair that way.

[cocaine]

I got FS2004 today.

because FSX had a mouse control (CTRL+Y) I thought fs2004 would be the same.

wrong..

anyone know of any programs that will let me use mouse?

[CptBilly]

Mouse? Why would you want to use a mouse. Joystick or yoke is much more realistic. I have the Saitek x52 Joystick but want that Saitek yoke! I'll do a quick Google for you! :)

[cocaine]

Okay.

I mean, money isnt a problem.

I had £28, FS2004 was £16

28-16 = 12

I get £20 a month

12 + 20 = 32

And I spot a joystick in argos (yes, argos), and its £20

[Easyjet]

I reccomend the joystick I have, Logitec Force 3D Pro, it reacts tot the scenery around it e.g. when on ground it will vibrate the same when i plane did with the wheels on the concrete, it also reacts to turbulance. It also has alot of buttons of which you can set what they do, making it easier to do operations quickly.

I was looking at the Logitech attack 3 (£19.99) or at the Logitech extreme 3D pro (£29.99)

[Easyjet]

I got mine off eBay for £20, well worth the money, I would say the only slight problem with it is the centre spring isnt amazingly strong.

[cocaine]

im looking to buy a joystick as I have to now i downgrade from FSX.

[cocaine]

ive read bad reviews about the Logitech attack 3 joystick & the extreme 3d pro.

[Recursion]

Yeh, option 2 :)

[Recursion]

1. What is Vatsim - It is an online Flight simulator enviroment, whith real people as ATC and real other people flying.

2. What game do I need - Flight Sim 2004 or Flight Sim X

3. What other stuff do I need - Joystick, mouse and keyboard is eww.

4. How do i do this stuff? - There are tutorials and lessons in game :)

[Recursion]

SORRY FOR DP - PLEASE DELETE!!!

[Easyjet]

Option two it will be, getting print screening people!

[CptBilly]

I think I have posted like 5. When will this be done becuase I go on holiday tommorow.

[cocaine]

can anyone recommend joysticks to me

tarrr.

have to be within £20 - £30

[CptBilly]

The Saitek Cyborg EVO for 29.99 is good. If you have another 6 quid to spare you should get the wireless. :P
The Saitek AV8R Retro for 19.99 is also good.

I really reccommend Saitek, they have the best support team in the world! You have a problem, they will fix it. My joystick got damaged, I sent it back and they sent me a new one for free. They don't question or query they just help you.

[Yoshimitsui]

It depends how you want to buy it and what shops you can get to. It makes it easier that way.

[Naruto!]

Saitek AV8R Joystick
tis good.

[Stephen!]

No need to get the wireless if your at a desk.. you just need to keep recharging the batteries and it gets annoying

[cocaine]

Saitek AV8R Joystick
tis good.

you just copied the billy's post

:rolleyes:

[Scania]

Because I can fly, cross winds at full speed are challenging.

[-::Mr.Dave::-]

Bet not many of you have a full Pilot license :D I do :) Fully qualified upto twin engine turbo prop. Not a bad landing although i think id need new boxers after that :P

[Scania]

Hey Matt, I have the attack3 And Ill tell you Its worth the money, Its cheap and reliable.

[Easyjet]

I will put up a poll of all the best ones to be voted on on the 28th to leave people 4 days to vote , and it will the run onto the September competition.

[Naruto!]

No i didn't
I searched on google joysticks and it come up on play.

[-::Mr.Dave::-]

Ive got a £5.99 PC line joystick, Does the job great :)

[piddle2k6]

Go look on the argos website, they have some cheap but good ones

Hey Phil, nice shots, looking forward to that flight later :)

[Recursion]

so, err, when you gunna tell us where you got it from? :P

[Antony]

Nice. Is that fs2004 or FSX?

Love the A380 and First Choice with Walkways on them :P

What add-ons are you using their?

[Scania]

Nice. Is that fs2004 or FSX?

Fs2004 ;)

[Scania]

Is there actually something wrong with the forum as it keeps making duplicating threads?

[lScottl]

If/When I buy it and ive installed it, would anybody be willing to help me a bit, I know it sounds noobish, but i couldnt even take off on the demo :)

[sock]

Pireps are pliot reports, so the va has info on what flight you've done, which you will undertsnad once you join the va, and STARS are what you need to know in or out of a va, there standard transport arrival routes, which you'll find on charts that you may have.

[sock]

theres actually a link under vatsim.net which has like 300 va's, www.vatsim.net click cmmunity then virtual airline

[sock]

coud you tell me what ai traffic you were using?

[Yoshimitsui]

How do you connect to the sky-bridges on FS2004 :S

[sock]

well if there skybridges that are not payware they won't actually connect so you have to do it manually, if you got payware it will say in instructions. Well in most freewrae they don't anyway.

[Yoshimitsui]

So you need some programe to do it?
Beats me lol

[Scania]

I'll gladly help you :) I have 2002 and FSX, im looking to buy fs2004 in a shop also but no-where seems to have it :(

[LeftForDead]

Ive got 02 version and i was wondering, How could i fly like a diffrent plane? Like get more planes? And do more routes? That sorta thing:)

[sock]

well you choose your own routes don't you on the create a flight menu and download aircraft from www.avsim.com

[sock]

no you don't, it will say in manual of payware scenery.

[Yoshimitsui]

Thats my point lol. I don't know about this payware :S :P

[LeftForDead]

Thanks, ive got some aircraft just how do i put them on?

[Sunny.]

I wna get FS nw :P Might look around for it.

[Easyjet]

Everything you see is payware, scenery UK Pro 2000 , Aircraft are the overland world series

[Yoshimitsui]

So it's a file you add to the FS programme files? Like add-ons? As you would add new planes.

[Easyjet]

yep but it costs

[Recursion]

I have UK2000 Scenery... Anyway to retract the Jet Way?

[Yoshimitsui]

How much does it cost and for what?

[Scania]

In the file you download, there should be an 'aircraft' folder in it, extract the aircraft folder to Programme Files >> Microsoft games >> FS2004 >> Aircraft

[Recursion]

eBay gets you it real cheap :)

http://www.play.com/Games/PC/4-/125440/Microsoft-Flight-Simulator-2004-A-Century-Of-Flight/Product.html

Ill help out too :) - FS Has lessons on it to teach you how to land, take-off, cruise etc...

[sock]

it costs different money for different scenery and aircraft in payware and jaffa look in the manual, for me the uk2000 scenery takes up to much frames :[
