  1. Hi Ruud,

    First of all I have to give you credit for putting so much time and effort into your products. I have been using it for more than a year now and I enjoy it very much in conjunction with FSGlobal2005.

    But now I have to write some frustration of from me:

    Either I do not understand the offer you have on your website now or the previous customers of FScene software have paid too much in the past....

    In 2005 I purchased all worldpackages @69 euros a piece. So I invested more than 270 euros (plus simmarket charges for download guarantee). And this is what makes a bit bitter about this final offer. Being aware that you want to stop it all I do believe this is a bit of a knife in the back for those who paid a lot of money in the past. People who saved money to buy continent by continent or season by season. The price at time was already high, but people bought it anyhow considering the quality. But this offer is really low... a bit too low to my feeling. I do understand you have to make money and once products need to replaced, special offers are made.

    So help me out of the dark in this offer please....

    Regards, Ferry

  2. My Dear Friends,

    Would you inform please:

    How can we link the FSNavigator [as a navigator] with PMDG or LEVEL-D? .

    Many thanks!

    Regards.

    I am just wondering why you would need this? The autopilot of PMDG B737, B747 and the LevelD are far more advanced then FSNavigator could ever offer. Also in terms of 'as real as it gets' those aircrafts have visually more interesting autopilots. I doubt whether you would ever get satisfied enabling FSNavigator 'navigation' section with the aircrafts.

    Just my 02 cents...

  3. Thanks for your very quick response (stopped the clock at 20 minutes :) )

    Going to purchase Night Textures soon! I like flying long hauls, so I often end up in the night.

    And I never really thanked you for your product! Although my wife never liked the idea of spending so much money on Flightsim addons which I had to compromise with taking her out for dinner at the same amount (so you know in which type of restaurant I had to go), I still enjoy it every day. Together with FSGlobal2005 I think I have purchased a very good combination.

    Regards, Ferry

  4. Ok,

    Now I am completely lost at FScene.com. I love the product together with FSGlobal2005, but I get completely lost with those patches. Today I saw another topic on Avsim that FScene has new patches for registered users.

    They only link to FScene.com, but where to go? Where to register? Or is this automatically done when buying at Simmarket? The only thing I see is the screaming advertisements of FScene when the product already sells itself.

    Please could somebody help me out with this one. I bought the following:

    06 April 2005: Worldpack Summer

    26 April 2005: Worldpack Spring

    06 May 2005: Worldpack Fall & Winter

    At the end of May I have downloaded all downloads that I could find on FScene.com. This included Trees and Rivers and the 'News'-patch. I also downloaded the region specific patches.

    Now, I see a topic on Avsim that you have another patch. But I only see the 'Trees and Rivers' and 'News' Patch. To keep things a bit more clear could you please add a date or a sequence number to the patches? Or am I the only one that gets lost?...

    Looking forward to your reply and assistance...

  5. So its a joint venture between two super giants, is BAE System state owned? Is EDAD a busniess alliance or an indepedent entity by itself (When they say combined)?

    Bae is not state owned. You can buy shares if you want to. In the UK Public Company means that you can buy shares on the stockmarket (roughly said). The same goes for EDAD (EADS).

    EADS has a couple of divisions as you can see on: http://www.eads.net. They only have a dedicated division for Airbus. I learned something as well here, because I just noticed it is a Dutch company. 8)

  6. Already answered at Avsim but:

    FS WILL know the correct season in the southern hemisphere and WILL use the correct textures (so FScene Africa autumn will be used in south Africa at the moment).

    If you don't see much seasonal difference there that's because there is less seasonal difference there.

    Thanks Jeroen,

    I just found the fs_seasons.doc and was reading this one through. It says the following:

    Additionally, in countries containing several climate zones, the seasons.bgl file allows different areas to display different seasonal variations at the same time of year. For example, in FS2002, whilst the Victorian Alps in Australia display snow textures in July, the much warmer inland climate of central Australia is represented by spring textures.

    So that basically gives the answer. You were just ahead...I purchased the spring package today. I will wait for Autumn & Winter next month :)

    Thanks though for the reply...

    Regards, ferry

  7. Hi,

    I noticed on the FScene pages that the patches offered are mostly for the parts of the Worldpacks. Since the Worldpacks are based on the others and came later than the smaller packages of FSscene my question is the following:

    Are there any patches advised for the FScene Worldpacks (any season)? And if so, which one should we download?

    Thanks for your advice!

    update:

    I bought Summer Worldpack 26th March 2005 and Spring Worldpack on 26th of April...

  8. Hi,

    It took me a while to figure out the best title for this subject. And I was not quite sure on what keys to look for in the search functionality

    I am curious about the following. After having used FScene in FS2000 & FS2002, I recently bought the FScene Summer World Pack. As I live in the Netherlands, I am close to be in summer, so I will see the textures soon enough.

    However, what will happen if I fly to South Africa? Overthere it is Winter. How is this supported in FSscene? I believe that FS9 will still think it is spring today. So normally you will get the spring textures in South Africa for example? Or will you see the Winter textures? How does it work?

    Not that it would change much down there :)

    I was thinking to buy the spring textures as next package.

    Thanks in advance...

  9. Hello Pete,

    Thanks for your reaction and help! Programming the FSUIPC and WideFS was something I had done months ago and never paid attention to it anymore. Because it worked pretty well.

    I did not remember anymore to use the RWoff RWon commands, but knew it was something small. From the old WideFs config file I noticed I used the keystrokes commands, which seemed to work, so i was looking to use that again. As said I had not updated the config files for a long time, so I forgot most of the settings. Why fix it if it ain't broke :-) ?

    I was browsing through the manuals, but most likely I overlooked that one. On the forums I was searching on Actionkeys, but had no results concerning my question.

    Thanks for your effort and time to explain this to me!

  10. Dear all,

    Recently I updated my WideFS Client and Server applications by the new version. However I forgot to make a copy of the WideClient Configuration Settings (wideclient.cfg file).

    If I remember correctly I had made adjustments in this file about the use of Actionkeys. However I cannot recall the commands I used and I find troubles understanding the manual. Could somebody help me to start this up again?

    I have initialized the following:

    - On my CH Yoke I have assigned a button to start Roger Wilco. I use FSUIPC button assignment to push the Scroll Lock button (this works)

    - In my widefs.cfg file I have set the commands to accept Actionkeys and used the commands from the previous widefs.cfg file (this works). Keys have been assigned in this cfg file.

    - On my clientPC I have set the cfg file to accept ActionKeys.

    What do I have to do else to launch the Scroll Lock at the client PC so I can use Roger Wilco? I know it was something small, but I do not recall anymore.

    Your help and advise would be highly appreciated!
