Re Falcon 4 AF need help

[rattler]

Ihave just reloaded F4AF and I have hitiles and dr.stop pit and pilot for the F16c50. The problem is the pit and pilot will not load. I tried everything I could think of. I am running windows 7x64. Can someone help? Thanks:cry:

my guesstimate is a compatibility issue with win7.

 

try to reinstall it as administrator and in XP mode (if possible, no win7 here).

 

cheers

In what format do you have the pit? is it a folder that you have to copy? or an exe data?

It is a 2d cockpit right?

i dont know about stopwork pits, but with aeyes you have to do one thing.

change in game settings (gfx) from DEFAULT pits to stopworks if that option is there.

 

btw isnt stopworks only 2d pits?

 

My suggestion:

 

2D pits =standart

3D pits =aeyes http://cockpits.nl/

 

an example clip of that pit from tube....

Nice!! Looks very similar but I would love a better shot at the scenery. Hitiles looks a lot different than mine. geforce 9600gt oc. getting new system soon but this one runs Lockon just fine. What settings do you have.? been changing mine around but I still have some shimmer on buildings and in distance. I have installed the pit as I did before, but no go on the pit. I still get the default. I even loaded all into default and still would not pick up the textures.Thanks for your info. Terrain looks great.:thumbup:

It's a folder with all the textures I need in it. It just will not load up. Even if I put textures in default folder.Trying to find more info on the pit. I think it is 3d but not sure.:thumbup:

Got to agree with you there for sure. Simhq is about the only other place right now and no where near what Frugals was. I see a lot of simmers are using FF5. I have the download but have not tried it yet. Would like to get all this sorted out first before trying something different. Just getting back to F4AF so I have some reading and flying to do.:thumbup:

Looking more like that I am afraid. I am the administrator but the game loaded fine so I did not change the compatibility setting to window xp. thanks for the reminder. Will try that. Cheers and thanks.:thumbup:

Ok guy's , got it working and it appears to be a 2d pit. I don't seem to have all the pilot head positions so got to check and make sure I have transferred all of them. All information was and is gratefully appreciated. Thanks to all of you. If there are any tips you think might be helpful would be grateful. Been away too long from F4AF. Ever since I got Lockon. but hay no excuse, should have stayed in the loop. Both great sims.Cheers and many thanks.:thumbup::thumbup:

Need a little practice first. Does not respond to input commands as fast as Lockon a/c. Just need to get the feel back again.:thumbup:

Oh , question with F4af loaded and hitiles + DrStop pilot and pit, what do I have to do to load the new FF5 download?
