MS Flight Sim X

[504bigtonka]

It worked for me:

 

 

It even took off - but Im missing the underneath/rear texture(s) :cry:

Ill give it a try

[504bigtonka]

ok Ive done a little research on this (never had as look at msfs skinning/painting so its all new to me and Im using trial and error.)

 

Using a different mi-8 "paint scheme" did not have any transparent textures at all.

 

Id say whats happening here, is that some paint schemes are using a "default" supplied fs9 (or msfs) texture for some parts - since what we have is only a demo it is shipped only with the textures it needs to run - so some objects try to use a missing texture resulting in the transparencies.

 

i confirmed this using a different paint of my Addictive VC-10 and it worked fine too.

 

I suppose if you were desperate you could try to single out the textures you need and copy them from fs9 to the fsx demo... but thats a little beyond me with my limited fs9 modding knowledge ;)

how are you guys flying different aircraft if msfX if it is a demo? Does some of the addons from 2004 work here, or does it come with it? Also, did someone figure out how to change the time limits?

[504bigtonka]

Basically for a existing fs9 aircraft you want to fly in the fsx demo do the following:

 

1) copy the aircraft from your old fs9\Aircraft\ directory into the FSX\SimObjects\airplanes\ directory

2)Copy any needed gauges from the fs9\Gauges\ directory to FSX\Gauges

3)Copy any needed effects files from fs9\Effects directory to FSX\Effects\

 

Thats basically it.... Id expect varying degrees of success with addon planes - some may require more steps perhaps. :)

I beleive most of the buttons are clickable in the VC as well on the AS F-18.

 

She sure does look nice. :)

[NEODARK]

looks nice, but IT's NOT WORTH MORE $$ than the sim itself.

 

The worse part is that, it won't be fully utilized with the limitations of that sim.

"Worth" is relative.

 

Some of the add-ons for FS are more expensive than that. lol

[SUBS17]

Its not really a full functioning Hornet though which makes its value considerably less than what they are offering.(unless its made into a real sim then it would rock)

[dodger42]

Damn that aircraft looks so sweet. What I would give to have it in lockon.

I noticed a keystroke in the list for War Emergency Power. I guess they are planning some WWII flyables.... looking forward to those!

That command is allready put in all the FS i thought, because of combat flight sim....

[gustav]

Can you somehow zoom your view like in lomac? Would also like to change the "fov". This would enhance the experience much...

 

Thanks!

[504bigtonka]

msfs trackir support (not in the fsx demo yet) has full 6dof support so if you have a trackir you can use that to zoom. There are also commands to move the eyepoint up/down/forwards/backwards and to zoom in/out.

 

A combination of these should get the views how you like them.

Ok, finally found the keys for zoom (0/= and -) Guess 0.3 (min?) zoom will do. One more question, when you press backspace the view will go back to default zoom. Can you assign a key so that by pressing it will make the zoom jump back to my prefered (0.3 or less..) zoom?

[504bigtonka]

hmmm sorry - not sure... Im only using the keyboard zoom since theres no trackir support in the demo. maybe someone else knows this?

Ok, thanks. It's not very important. Now when i got a grasp of the views and seat positions and such i feel i can start exploring this sim. Time to set up the x-45 as well. Se ya.

Has anyone found a way to trick the FSX demo to run on a windows 2000 system?

"Der Untergang"

Its about the last weeks/days in the "Führer-Bunker" in Berlin 1945.

Anyway he is right with his dual core remark!

LOL :megalol:

About the film it is kind of depressing

It is the indeed the Untergang of a dictator!

If you are only interested like me in WWII vehicles/tanks, it is

not the film that you want to see.
