RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Far Cry is just before it's time that's the problem. It gives my setup a run for the money as well.

AFP has all the eye candy that's for sure, but the real winner is the way it flies. You'll see ...

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

hey, with aerofly pro, can you download trainer models, and electric assisted gliders?
also, can you download an ep concept sr?

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Yes lots of trainers and many different gliders of all kinds.

Not sure about the Concept though.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Wait until DOOMIII comes out. It went Gold(that means it's in production) and is set for release AUG 3rd. To run it at ultra high detail you have to have A 3.5 processor or higher, 2 gigs of ram, and a 500mb video card!!!!!! Ouch. But it will still be great with med/high detail.

Oh and I'm itching to get my hands on that sim. I have 2 planes that will be here on mon/tuesday. I ordered a Skyraider MachII and a Hanger 9 Twist. I was starting to get the nervousness back again thinking about flying a different airplane knowing it will be faster and touchier, but that's why I decided to buy a sim. The Nexstar sim helped me out by teaching me how to fly it so I figured why not invest in something that will help me transition from a trainer. Some do it without but the sim just builds confidence. If it wasn't for the Nexstar sim, I probably would have never made it this far. Over 7 gallons of flying time, probably over 100 flights, and it's still never been wrecked(knocks on wood).

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

if you keep the twist on low rates, you will be fine. that is the plane im currently flying and i bought it right after my trainer. i love it, but im now considering purchasing one of OMPs 47" profiles......but which one.........hmmmm

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Alrighty then, just rolled over to a month!!!!!!!!!! WOW!!!! and to think i was looking at a week when I ordered it..... Learned my lesson the hard way this time, If ordering from the states to Canada, Always Always ship to the border and go pick it up yourself.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Ouch! Looks like you're in virtually the same boat I am with these things. Sorry to hear that man. Make a couple of calls and see if you can't find it. I did that and I think I frustrated the postal services so much that they started getting their butts in gear. :)

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Yeah I tried calling them once and they said they couldn't do anything unless i had a tracking number which i don't, I think I should call again and again and again.....What makes me mad is that I could have sent it by UPS International but I didn't know that it was by Phone or Email request only.... and i wastn' to worried because the first time I asked I was told about 1 week no mention untill later that it may be a month...

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

You can trace it on the recipients name (please excuse my spelling-I'm Afrikaans). We also had the same problem with the tracking number thing but they are able to trace it on your name. Although I wasn't sure ever if that worked. Have you phoned your local post office yet? Even with UPS i'm sure it wouldn't have helped much. Although you would have probably known that the package was sitting in customs. I would start by nagging the post office where you will be picking the package up from. Our Yaks showed on the papers that the package was lying at the post office for over two weeks. Another two or three weeks were taken up by customs. The amount of time the package actually spent on the road or travelling was minimal.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

5 weeks!!!!! and still going...... called the post office, and nothing. Well its going to make a good christmas present...

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Yep well its up to a month and a half..... and no sign. I can't beleive how long customs is taking...[:@].

STLPilot any luck with that tracking you were going to do????

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

No luck. All the info we has it that it arrived in Canada.

Call our shipping office tomorrow nite if you can. 937-429-3056

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

I am wanting to order AFP. I have got an original Realflight simulator that I haven't used for a long while. Can the controller that came with RF be used with the interface version of AFP? Thanks in advance.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

yes it can

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Alright after 7 weeks I called and they sent me another one and I got it yesturday......and then of course it won't work now...... I installed the disc, intalled the expansion, installed the patch, then calibrated and loaded fine and when I go to FLY i get a black screen and a ERROR!!!! this is what it says......

I updated me drivers for video reinstalled everything and....NOTHING same thing again?????
Any one have any ideas or suggestions????? Man is this ever frustrating!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Sorry to hear that Chris (Sonny). Try to uninstall it and reinstall it. Also check to see that your ports are enabled in your cmos, just a thought might not work but worth a try. You have win xp? When you uninstall it you might want to delete the registry entry for AFP so you have a clean install.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

problem solved got a new video card!!:D Man this thing is sweet.....i know someone has posted this b4 but how do you make the smoke denser??

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
 

Go to here on your C: drive C:\Program Files\IPACS\AeroFly Professional\config and open up the Main file in notepad and you will see the information below (I just copied some not all here so you can see whet it looks like):

cloud_type 81
smoke_color_red 0.00000
smoke_color_green 1.00000
smoke_color_blue 0.00000
smoke_density 1.00000
exhaust_density 1.00000

I put the line you are looking for in bold, change the 1.00000 to 15.00000 or what ever you would like I changed mine to 25.00000 and it was way too much smoke could not see to fly :D try 15 and then change it from there. When you change the number then save it and close it down and thats it. It will slow your computer down some but not alot depends on how fast your computer is.

Brian

p.s to open file double click and pick select program to open from list then click ok and pick notepad to open it and then change the number. If you want you can uncheck the box that says !QUOT!Always use selected program to open this type of file!QUOT! It does not matter if you do or not will work both ways.

RE: Ordered AFP!!!!!!
