Oh well, looks like FSX Real World Weather has gone so it'll be third-party in the future.
I found this one http://www.fsopen.co.uk/software/openclouds/ Free for the UK, but with a fee for global...
Might be worth a look as long as REX doesn't drag down my top-end-of-budget PC. I had ActiveSky on FS2002 a decade ago and I seem to recall there was a performance hit. I need the frame rates as a...
Is Real World Weather still supported in FSX or has it been dropped due to the age of the game?
The weather displayed appears to be the same on each session although it appears to download data...
Well, there's still no word on FSXI so there will be something else in his stocking on Christmas morning.

How do you fancy riding the London Eye at 50 rpm?

....and how many G will the folks in the viewing pods be enjoying?
TV guided missile takes out British tourist's caravan. Here's something you don't see every day in FS:

Enjoy.

I can see I'll need to add some fire ball effects to this model.
I just used some easily available sound files for the video, hence the muscle car noises. I don't think a V8 would have fitted...
At least I think it was Ford's first flying car...although it had a few mods.
Here's how I got it airborne:

I've got some FS explosion effects, but they didn't really work so I borrowed some clips from the old Lock On game and edited them in.
I moved the launchers closer together for the movie. That...
Did you ever feel there was something missing from FS? Yes, not enough surface-to-air missiles.
Here's one I made in gmax:

Yo ho ho!!
Just finished my Christmas 2009 model: Santa on reheat.
Here's the video:

The armoured car is actually a Marmon-Herrington Mark IV from the 1940s. One of my buddies is very into tanks so I slapped on some German markings in order to provoke some uproar :icon_lol:
The...
Excellent. :applause:I liked the inverted formation flying. Very good.
I noticed the fs2004.com forums have been off as well for a few days, or it could just be my browser settings. Glad to see AVSIM came back.
Nice shots of the B-52 in the naval aviation role.:icon_lol:
You can fly anything off an FS carrier...if you turn up the wind to a high enough setting.
:icon_lol: I know how to cook the books.
On the one and only flight of the Antonov KT the only thing it was carrying was the pilot/driver....and enough fuel to allow him to drive his vehicle back...
Here's something you probably haven't seen in FS before: a flying tank.

Well done to all those who didn’t fall for the Smell of Victory. It really wouldn’t add much to your gaming experience, although it may clear your house of mice, rats, termites and other...
Just got the first carton of the redesigned devices, which will be checked later today.
I'll give away the remaining v1.01 units for free to people I don't like.:applause:
DPS.
Never mind Track IR or Buttkicker, this little device will really improve your Flight Sim experience.
It was designed with combat games in mind, but it will detect engine starts, landings, etc.

No harm in writing to MS to express your disappointment - perhaps they will write back and offer to sell you the rights to the game. Good luck.
Just spoke to my buddy who's a bit of Photoshop artist, so hopefully she will produce a proper skin for the model. I've had a look at GIMP. What I need is an application that will let you slap on a...
Beetroot/Onion composite.
Just checked and the pilot figure has 904 polygons ...must find a new driver.
