Classic British Flight Sim

It really looks smashing! The Vulcan is one of my fav's.

...so is AI that bad,what should i set the slider to? What were the original settings? You might try this: If the original setting was say 80% AI try half of that or 40%. If you get crashes reduce it to 20%. If you don't get crashes, try 60%. Repeat this process, reducing by half if you get crashes...

Thanks Del...going to try it now! And if it did make a difference you can then gradually increase the AI traffic until you find that sweet spot between smooth running and some AI in the sim. I think that a large airport (EGLL, for example) and lot of AI will effect all but a PC with top drawer specs.

For a freeware alternative you might want to try Power Defragmenter. http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/Hard-Disk-Utils/Power-Defragmenter.shtml or search Google for other download sites. Not very a very fancy GUI, but it does the job. If you go to the site noted above, read the Softpedia Editor's ...

Dell's "customer service" is abysmal to say the least! :sad: While their computers are of good quality, if you need any help... well you probably already know much more about the computer than 95% of the Dell support staff. So if you go the Dell route, just keep that in mind.

Indeed AFCAD affects the elevation at which runways,taxiways et al are presented, but not the 3d scenery or models, you can find yourself with an error whereby the afcad is at one elevation while the 3d models or terrain are floating above or below. If you end up with problems with the 'flatted' ar...

From what you say there, it seems that an airfield doesn't rely on the mesh it sits on to determine its height above sea level, but instead that height is determined in some other way. Consequently, if an airfield is at 500 ft asl, and the mesh is mistakenly 506 ft asl, not only will there appear b...
