Seriously though...this was my first go with Text-o-Matic. This is an application that comes bundled with the Dreamfleet B734. It enables you to create new B734s with over 200 free liveries that you can download from Dreamfleet. Stardust here is just one of them and I created this aircraft with just 4 mouse clicks in Text-o-Matic.

I just don't know how you guys who have not got the DF734 can possibly live without it :-lol

Nice shot as ever Peter. I also used the DF737 Midland livery for a while too because I kept putting the thought of learning to use text o matic off. When I finally did, I thought 'geess, why didn't I do this ages ago'. It really is that easy. maybe it's the way to go for changing liverys.
Regarding the EDDW scenery. Dont get me wrong, I have a lot of respect for freeware deisgners, they are worth their weight in gold. I installed the scenery and it looks fantastic. Prior to installing the scenery, 2k2 was very stable, after installing the EDDW scenery, probably 4 out of 5 flights will lock my system to the point where it needs a reset :-( If I remove the add on from the library, 2k2 becomes stable again. This happens only when I fly around europe.
I have RTM several times. Have been tempted too e-mail Oliver, but with it beeing such a popular bit of kit, I'm sure he is inundated with mail at this time. Before I do, I was wondering if you, or any other person reading this post could possibly shed some light on the subject?

Many thanks and kind regards,

Richard,

I'm pretty sure that you are running out of memory when using Bremen....I get pretty close sometimes and I have 512Mbs. I use something called Memturbo to keep an eye on it and reclaim some if necessary. Try running EndItAll before starting FS2002 and see if there is any improvement. I have had it lock up when multitasking.

Martin,

I think that is about �21 and I reckon that is astounding value for money :-)

To be quite honest...the Dreamfleet B734 is a whole new Flight Simulator on its own. One of the beauties of it is the fact that it handles manually better than any other FS2002 jet, so if you want to, you can get in and fly it around without using the Autopilot. On the other hand, it also offers the finest implementation of the Flight Management Computer yet written (IMHO) so you can also get down to some really serious and realistic airliner flying with all the controls just as they are for real.

However, if you take this last route...then you must be prepared, like a real Airline Pilot, to do the conversion course. The average conversion course in British Airways takes about 3 months...the Dreamfleet B734 conversion course consists of reading and properly studying the various excellent manuals provided and I would recommend that you do this :-)

Thanks for the resonse Peter. I'm only running a P111 650 with 256memory. I am soon to get a new comp though I hope. Could you tell me where i can get that 'memturbo'? Sounds like it may do me a favour.
Thanks again,
