Goodly afternoon all... Smiley

Oh and could someone Link Part One and Part Two for me as I have no idea how to do that... Smiley

Thanks to Doug "Hagar", U4EA, Larry "Patchz" all great Simviation members and those folks at "The Home Of Flight Ontario" for this wonderful scenery... Wink

FSX and Vista
FS Water Configurator set to Rough Inland
HDE Clouds
3D Lights
Mostly all Freeware right here at Simviation

Short flight from Lake Simcoe Regl. "CNB9" to Muskoka "CYQA" in a Cessna 172 in the Province of Ontario, Canada.
These are the two airports that The Home of Flight Ontario have for FSX.
There are many others for FS2004 along with several other great downloads.
The A1 Traffic is also wonderful in this scenery.

What I did find was I could not fly the repaint of my Auster Aircraft T7, the program kept installing the default Auster Aircraft and not sure why.

Hope you get an idea from the above shots about this free download scenery.

Part two to follow... Smiley

Comments and advice most welcome... Wink

Cheers...Happy Landings...Doug

Very nice Doug. This makes it worth the trouble to get it working. Wink

Just a thought. Make sure you have the "Show all variations" option ticked on the Aircraft selection menu.

FSX, we've come a long way baby! Skunk Works is an official alias for Lockheed Martin’s Advanced Development Programs (ADP), formerly called Lockheed Advanced Development Projects. Skunk Works is responsible for a number of famous aircraft designs, including the U-2, the SR-71 Blackbird, the F-117 Nighthawk, and the F-22 Raptor. Its largest current project is the F-35 Lightning II

I do hafta admit to my 'advice' being a product of all I've learned from the smartguys/gals here at the V!  Learned the important stuff, then learned even more when I messed things up at times.  Cheesy

Stand by, I may need you. I'm about to uninstall my duplicate install/copy of FSX to try and fix all my problems.  Undecided

It's easy!  If I can do it, anybody can! Cheesy

If it's a full copy thing then the only issue I've had is it takes forever and two days for things to copy from the external to the internal just due to file-sizing, and the 487,692 occurrences of the copy/replace/ignore box opening if ya haven't removed every last bit of the original. Huh

Maybe not 487,692!  But close! Tongue

Good morning all... Smiley

Quick question on the above post.

As I have my original disks for FSX I am not sure why I would have two copies on the computer.

I have heard of folks running FS2004 and FSX on the same computer  but never backing up a copy of either on the computer if one has the disks.

Would this not slow down the computer?

Like I have said before I know little about these electronic gizmos... Grin

You are not inspiring me with confidence.  Angry  Grin

Also, I did an inventory yesterday of my payware addons. It scared the hell out of me, for more reasons than one.  Wink

I think what he is referring to Doug, is that I have a second install/copy of FSX. The purpose was to keep one totally freeware only, while the other would be my payware sim.

Turns out, it was more trouble than it was worth and if I ever finish the preparation, and find the intestinal fortitude, I am going to ditch it and just have one copy.

"You have nothing to fear, but fear itself."  Wink

I was skeered witless the first time I did it, but had no choice as it was the only viable 'fix'.  And that was before my FSX grew to over 60GBs, with a touch over half that being the simobjects.

If I hafta do it again Ima gonna be hip deep in......well, you know. Grin

At least now I have a bit more than a working knowledge of what one CAN'T do to FSX! Smiley
