OK; I've got Howie's Screen Capture down halfways decently. I can grab screenshots and I can find them in the My Documents folder. Now, I need to know how to put them into the FS Screenshots folder, which is in the My Documents folder. Any help, gentlemen?

Never mind...

I figured out to left click on the shot to highlight it, then click on "Move this file..." and a listing of the folders comes up. It's a simple thing to click and move from that point on.

Sorry to have bothered you serious silicon-based aviators out there...

"visited by few" or did you mean to say "visited by a few," meaning that quite a few people had the same question but were less than diligent in asking, like me? I'm a know-nothing newbie when it comes to these flight sim things. I have to ask dumb questions-- I have no choice.

I get ya! Is the FS2002 Forum that barren a place? I don't have FS2004; I can barely do much of anything with 2002. I can't land anything on the runways-- I cannot seem to get lined up correctly and on the correct glideslope. I mostly fly the F-15 from abacus' Extreme Warbirds because it is so fast and manueverable. I can get it back on the ground, but it's usually a pretty hard landing and leaves big, black skidmarks. I have yet to hit the runway like a professional. I wish there was a macro or something that would put me about ten miles out and at the proper altitude so I can practice my approach over and over again without having to go around every time I miss the runway. I usually get lost and find myself flying around aimlessly, searching for the airport. When I do find it, I'm not in the proper attitude, altitude or direction to land. It's very frustrating.

Question: Will the A-10 Warthog actually get off the ground? Mine lifts off just a bit, then stalls and crashes. I can't get it up into the air and actually get it flying. It's very frustrating.

I here you on that. I used to wish i had gotten FS2004 for christmas, but now with the announcement of FSX i'm half-way glad i didn't.

I am having that same problem with my A-10. Are you talking freeware or payware? (because im talking freeware.)

i only have freeware on my FS and i do fine.

My A-10 is the one that comes in abacus' Warbirds Extreme. I can't recall ever getting this thing airborne. I got the package several months ago in a three-for-two deal and if I remember correctly, fooled around with some setting or whatever and then had trouble with every airplane in the sim, no matter if it was original or downloaded. My throttle responses were way off and control surface response lagged badly or was almost non-existent. I think I've got most of the problems straightened out now, but the A-10 continues to frustrate me. Maybe I am pulling up too fast for this tub and it's stalling. I think the airplanes in this package are stolen (on loan?) from CFS and don't work 100% in FS2002. Could this be the problem?
