    In RL, you can fly a plane with stick (and rudder) much more precisely than one with yoke. It has a good reason why all aerobatic planes have a stick. The only exception is the Cessna Aerobat, but I wouldn't count it as a real arobatic plane..

    The same applies, imho, to the sim. Also, most of the planes I fly in the sim have sticks, so it's just logic to use a joystick.

    ...sidestick on the left side, right hand for the mouse and keyboard...

    Real airplanes are flown with stick in the right hand, throttle at the left and have tailwheels :evil: :D

    I agree with the joystick and mouse. I prefer the "vintage plane" setup, so throttle quadrant at the left, joystick in the centre and mouse at the right-

    Hi Guys,

    It's almost 4 years since I have published the Baby for Fs2. I had it all the time in mind to convert it to Fs4, but didn't manage yet. Last Saturday a nice fellower asked me about the Baby, so I used the weekend to get it at last done.

    I gave it also a little update:

    -Small fixes to the 3d model and textures

    -Slightly stronger ambient occlusion on the exterior

    -Updated aerodynamics. It should fly a bit more realistic now (I said realistic, not better :D )

    -Clickspots fixed

    -Two new repaints

    The original one is fictive, but pretty much how one would expect a glider from the 30s.

    HB-234 is located at Neuchâtel, Switzerland. The right person knows why I have included it :)

    D-3856 is owned by the Oldtimer Segelflug Club Wasserkuppe (Vintage glider club Wasserkuppe)

    Alright. Here it is: CLICK

    Best Regards,

    Hi Douglas,

    How do you open the front doors of the UH60...? They unlatch but don't open.

    After unlatching, left click on the grip (above the yellow "PULL").


    I can open the rear cargo doors but there doesn't seem to be a click spot to close them.....?

    The clickspot moves with the door backwards. I just tested it and it looks like it moves out of range. When you change the seat position with the arrow keys back into the seat, you will be able to close the cargo door.

    I will note it to Jan, but he's very busy with the Concorde right now.

    Cheers,

    Kai

    In fact, no.

    Yes, I experienced it three times in a row. From all what I have been reading in the internet, 50% say it is no problem und 50% lost the download progress..


    Was habt ihr alle für eine Internetleitung, bei mir ist das in 2 Stunden rundergelad!!!!! :/

    Wenn ich vor die Türe geh, dann bin ich mitten in der finnischen Natur und zum See sind es 5 Meter. Dafür kann ich mit einem langsamen Internet gut leben 8o

    ;( Wääää-... fourth time I try to download the 200 GB from steam. Another two day tryout. I have a good internet connection but steam does not let me download with an appropiate speed. And always if I have to interrupt I have to start new. Is there a possibility to download in parts? Or spead up steam?

    Hallo Michael,

    I had the same problem. Steam should continue the download from where it ended. From what I was reading in the internet, it should work when making a backup of the batch files (steam/steamapps/downloading) before closing steam. After the next start, the files will be writen new. Pasting the backups and the download should continue where it ended.
    Well, for me it didn't work out, so I uninstalled the DLCs. The main program has around 50 GB, what is more easy to handle. Now I'm just adding the DLCs one after one back again.

    Grüsse,

    Hi Daniel,

    Before going trough the reinstallation process, I would try to delete (backup before) the main.mcf file in the user document folder. It will be writen new at the next startup and all settings will be default.

    If nothing helps; On Steam, right click on Fs4 (left side where all the Steam products are listed) -> Manage -> Deinstall
    (Or something similar. I have the German version installed, sorry)

    Edit:

    Jet-Pack (IPACS)

    Jan, I gave it a try and assigned an other key under Controls -> General -> Application -> Back Naturally, it worked, but now it's not accepting Esc for setting it back anymore.

    Cheers,

    The content converter is doing the job. Rename the file accordingly and you have it in the sim.

    But I very much doubt it will give a convincing result. There are usually several sounds for the engines, for the 777 I see 8 files. It's a lot of trail and error to get them working properly together (mapping of volume and pitch in the tmd).

    And there we are talking about professionally recorded sounds. Just a little difference between beginning and end of the loop will be noticeable right away.

    I would really recommend not to mess with the sounds around until you very well know what you are doing and having perfect recordings.

    Hallo Jürgen,

    Ist schon ein paar Jahre her, dass ich die ganzen Photoscenerien erstellt habe. Da waren bei allen Diensten hier und da komische Dinger drin. Teilweise schneebedeckt, dann wieder Wolken, usw. Google hatte meist die bessere Auflösung, bin aber ab und zu auf Bing ausgewichen.

    Inzwischen sind die Bilder wesentlich besser. Hab die letzten 1-2 Jahre ein paar kleinere Scenerien gemacht und bin immer gut mit Google gefahren. Allerdings auch mehr aus Gewohnheit. Bing sieht inzwischen auch besser aus. Ich würde den geplanten Bereich einfach im Browser vergleichen und dann die niedrigen Level konvertieren (09 - 11). Wenn das Ganze stimmig aussieht, einfach die höheren Level konvertieren und die Daten in den gleichen Ordner packen.

    Viele Grüsse,

    Kai
