My Sounds

Wasn't quite sure where to put this topic :dunno:

Someone has emailed me asking if my soundsets work with P3D. As i don't have P3D, i was wondering if any of you guys may have tried them, and if so, do they work?

Cheers

Southend 1-11's

Here are a couple of lovely video's of 90's Southend (EGMC) The days when jet aircraft sounded like jet aircraft :tunes: Many happy times sitting at RWY-06 and getting blown off the church wall. Or blasted with dust whilst perched on the WW2 pillbox :rock: Part 1 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ztHi...

Re: FS9 and Windows 10

These constant software issues are a pain in the ar**. They go on year after year and the greedy corporates never lift a finger to address them. I have a powerful pc system to run most graphic hungry monsters. Yet i still cannot get Windows 7 to run FSX or my favoured FS9. I've tried every available...

Re: World of Warships

The game is still in beta stage at the mo. The RN will turn up eventually. Here's my fluff on it. It's graphically beautiful and runs very smooth. It's a little bit arcady and does suffer at certain times from annoying kids that like to fire on their own side. The special effects and sound are fanta...

Re: Olympus powered giants to be scrapped?

Very sad news. I was on the Princess Anne during the same storm that smashed the front of the QE2. The side skirt exploded and the craft was forced to beach at Wissant. It took nearly two hours to drift with the tide, all the while being battered with massive waves. A very scary ride indeed :doh:

Re: FS9 on Win7

I installed FS9 on Win 7. FS takes a month of Sundays to boot up. Once it's booted, the mouse cursor is black... no matter what online fixes i try. Some gauges won't show up and FSNAV won't start at all :wall:

Everything ran like a dream when i had it on XP :'(

Twin boot

Hi Guys I had an older pc that showed the option to either boot to Win7 or XP. I now have a new pc with the same two drives. Yet i cannot get it to show the boot choices. It boots to straight to Win7. The problem here, is all my FS9 is on my XP drive and i just don't know how to boot to that drive. ...

Re: FS9 Problem

I had exactly the same problem. My virus scanner decided to bin a few important FS9 files. I had to force my virus software to leave FS alone :wall: My Level D 767 and PMDG 737 had quite a few addon liveries added. What i did was CUT both aircraft to a safe folder on my desktop.... Re-install both b...
