Sure will pete - Thanks anyway. There must be a way. Regards Neil

Just a quick question which I hope someone may be able to help me with. getting the hang of working with AI now and making use of both AFCAD and FSUIPC with some good results. Still in the stages of making aircraft and flightplans, and get an enormous amount of satisfaction watching my generated AI flights leaving and arriving. The Question....? Well I have ATC on - and in 'Options' - 'Settings' - 'ATC' I have 'Aircraft Labels' turned on (I like this...) I have noticed that the labels only come on when the aircraft is 10nm away from either the airport, airfield, or if you are tracking an aircraft in the air the aircraft I am flying. Is there any way to extend this distance to say 20nm or 30nm or any value higher than 10nm at all ?? Appreciate it if someone could help - i am sure I have read somewhere that someone has theirs so that the labels become visible at 40nm !!!! i can't remember where though. - Could this be so ?? Regards Neil

Pete, Thanks so much for the information. I don't think I would have found it by myself. Have tried it and it seems to be working fine. Again many thanks, and also for the time and energy you put in to making applications such as FSUIPC. I for one, and am sure many others really appreciate it and are grateful. Kind Regards Neil

Hi, I am very very new to AFCAD and to FSUIPC so am experiencing some very early problems. I have downloaded FSUIPC and placed the DLL file in my modules folder of FS2002. I have downloaded AFCAD and placed it in a file I can easily access. I use Humberside airport as a kind of Base and have a 3rd party airport in place. The alignment is slightly off with AI traffic, so, my first experience with AFCAD was going to be simply to realign Humberside so that the AI traffic take off and land on the actual runway and not on the grass. I thought this was going to be simple, I read the instructions which said:- In FS2002 go into ‘down’ view, go into ‘slew’ open up AFCAD and you will see the crosshairs of where the aircraft is, highlight the complete airfield and then ‘drag’ to the appropriate position. When starting up AFCAD :- I get an Access Error relating to FSUIPC saying :- "One or more programs you are using is not accredited for access to an unregistered copy of FSUIPC. Please see the FSUIPC.cog for Details" When I look at the FSUIPC log, I get :- ********* FSUIPC, Version 3.11 by Pete Dowson ********* User Name="" User Addr="" FSUIPC not user registered WIDEFS not user registered, or expired Module base=02080000 ClassOptions: UIPCMAIN=FF7F, FS98MAIN=FF7F, FS2KMAIN=FF5E WeatherOptions(Orig)=0000B027[0000B027] InitDelay: 3 seconds DebugStatus=0 14171 System time = 11:21:22 14181 C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\FS2002\ 16074 FLIGHTS\myflts\Previous flight.flt 16124 AIRCRAFT\b737_400\Boeing737-400.air 22282 System time = 11:21:31, FS2002 time = 11:21:29 (11:21Z) 66756 FLIGHTS\MYFLTS\UI Generated Temporary Flight.flt 67257 Clear All Weather requested: external weather discarded 77872 Advanced Weather Interface Enabled 77872 ADVDRV.DLL has been patched for weather and other variables 77872 Saving original winds by Window Position Changes 77872 Everlasting rain/snow fix installed 90601 Client Application: "AFCAD" (Id=264) 90601 C:\Documents and Settings\Neil\Desktop\Flightsim\Utilities\AFCAD\AFCAD.exe 90611 Product=" AFCAD" 90611 Company=" " 90731 Illegal read attempt: offset 320C, size 228 90731Program not accredited for use with this unregistered FSUIPC I am really confused – Just who is not registered……Me ? or AFCAD ? Do I have to Register for FSUIPC in order to get this working ? Hope someone can explain and tell me how to get things going, and how to get the aircraft 'crosshairs' appearing. Thanks Neil
