I just got G3 and was wondering if there are any airports available for indoor flying? I don't want to wait for the Add-on if I don't have to.

Yes, the zoom functions will help you. Press Z to cycle through the zoom modes, +/- keys to zoom. Also know that the problem of flying away from yourself is something you will have to overcome if you intend to fly a real model, so while it may be frustrating at first, it's great practice.

Hi All - Well I've been running G2 for about 4 years now. My brother picked up G3, and so I thought I'd upgrade so we can share airports. New question. I switched it over to Full Screen by using the Alt - Enter, and it worked fine. I press the Alt key and the menu pops up towards the top of the screen where it should. It is in a much smaller font/format however. Still works fine though. The problem is when I use the ALT - F4 key, instead of coming out of Full Screen and returning to the regular default, it just shuts the program down as if I hit Exit. Any ideas? I am currently down loading the latest update, so maybe it will take care of itself, but I just thought I'd ask.
Thanks

I did the latest update version of G3 which allows you to download airplanes that you already have on it, however, I would like the basics on how to do this. I downloaded a zip file and extracted it, put it in the program file G3 under the planes folder, however, the plane is not showing up when I go to the select aircraft option on G3.
I also would like to know how to download paint colorschemes. I step by step help would be good.

RE: RealFlight G3 Basics - Newbies apply here
I am having trouble downloading paint schemes to my latest version of G3. I have the airplane already in my select aircraft.
Here's what happens. I downloaded the paint scheme in a zip file. I extracted the zip file. There are 3 files in there.
1. .plnG3 extension
2. .dds extension
3. colorscheme extension
I went to the import option of G3 and none of the files came up as they were not .g3x.
I then changed then renamed the extension of all three files to .g3x.
When I tried to import each one, it said "import failed"
What do I do?

for those asking about their cpu specs and if g3 can be played on it, you should check out the demo. i would think if you were able to play on the demo the full version should be ok
