  1. You guys did install fdsfxpnl.zip first right? This is an add-on for it.
  2. You forgot to paint the wing texture pink (it's white) viewable from inside the VC.
  3. Looks SWEET!!! I LIKE IT! Looks as close as you can get to the movie with the existing model! Even the actress was wearing a red helmet and parka. Too bad somebody can't make a new model with a head a tail and a geese flock in tow :) THANK YOU, Jack
  4. Thanks Daniman757, The movie shows the same texture on the top and bottom of the wing. Also the body (and wheel fairings) of the Ultralight looks like the color towards the front of the image. Jack
  5. I had the same issue with lights on ALL the TDS 787 -8, -9, -10 models. Went to TDS on Facebook and downloaded/installed the FSX model updates and ALL the lights work PEACHY NOW. I suspect the same is true for the 737's. WHY? Because I also have the 737 -6, -7, -8, -9, MAX 7, MAX 8, MAX 9 and updated the models and ALL OF THE LIGHTS WORK ON THOSE TOO. https://www.facebook.com/groups/TDS.SkySpirit.B737NG/files/ The catch is you have to have a account with Facebook to be able to download the files, but you don't need to join the TDS group
  6. Greetings, Seen the Movie "Fly Away Home"? Here is a perfect overhead shot of the "mother goose" Ultralight... It looks like for somebody with a decent paint program they could easily add the above image to the default FSX AirCreation 582SL white wing texture. All I have is MS Paint :( I understand the UltraLight in the movie is actually a Cosmos however the A/C 582SL is close enough. Would not be able to recreate the goose head or tail either because the A/C 582SL doesn't have provisions for it on the FSX model. Thanks, Jack
  7. Thanks for the excellent livery. Got it to work with the FS9 C90B version using DXTBMP
  8. Look at the Phenom 100, 4 windows. You could almost fly the plane from the back seat!
  9. What would happen if you made the FSX.cfg READ ONLY after changing to 4096. Would FSX be able to change it back again then?
  10. You need to place a texture.cfg in the folder pointing to the default 737_800 VC textures. Also use the latest .MDL from TDS on Facebook
  11. Besides calling your FedEx/UPS package a "Southwest", there are a couple of issues with 3 of the textures in FSX. 1. The TDS737_SELFILLUMINATION.BMP causes cabin windows to show when the cabin lights are turned on (These are cargo planes with no cabin windows). 2. The TDS737C_FUSEL_LIGHTSPLASH.bmp and TDS737C_FUSER_LIGHTSPLASH.bmp cause the side of the fuselage and tail to turn white when the Landing lights and Logo Lights are turned on. I was able to fix issue 1 using a texture from another 700C repaint. Issue 2 needs to be corrected with a paint program probably a transparency issue. Otherwise these are nice repaints.
  12. Title= in the Aircraft.cfg must be shortened to 127 characters or less to work in FSX Jack
  13. Thanks Dave for a great FSX conversion of a great FS9 model
  14. I concur on the logo mismatch. I like the black better.
  15. You did a really nice job on this. The paint lines are very crisp.
  16. It takes off just fine. Check your elevator trim and give it some flaps or use runaways long enough for a jumbo jet. Absolute newbie.
  17. Thank you Nils, This has been bugging me for years!!! Jack
  18. Thanks Jim for the heads up. Got the Toolkit, got Alaska and the other Deluxe planes FREE. Glad I didn't pay for these when I first installed Flight a few years ago. Now at least I feel like I only paid $10.00 each for Hawaii and Alaska :cool: Jack
  19. Jim, I kept trying to log into the Market Place and it said there was a problem. Then a message pops up in Windows that the Market Place is now available. So I started Flight and it said a new client was available so I got that. I was able to log in then the "Microsoft Flight Downloading content... Please wait." started. It was taking too long, so obviously the Flight servers are dead. So I cancelled it and logged into Market Place from outside Flight. I got the full list of every download I had ever made in Flight, including Hawaii and even the demo planes. I downloaded Hawaii and it is now accessible :) Now If I can get Alaska... Thanks
  20. Thanks Jim, I clicked on your link and had Flight running in less then 20 minutes. As you said I got that gamertag ID somewhere around here so I can reinstall the Hawaii pack. I got FS9 and FSX installed on my killer rig and I'll just keep Flight on my internet computer since its limited on content. Jack
  21. I just happen to check out this Forum and find out I can still get Flight? Jim, is it up and running? What steps are necessary? If you go to the old Microsoft Flight web page https://www.microsoft.com/games/flight/ and click on the link in the upper right corner https://microsoftflight.com/ ...I get Secure Connection Failed Yes, HyFlyer I purchased the Hawaiian pack for $19.99 and nothing else and was a little miffed that I couldn't install it anymore. If was fun to fly around Hawaii with the default planes.
  22. To fix the sound in FSX, edit the sound.cfg in the 'Sound' folder from... [fltsim] alias=B737_400\sound to... [fltsim] alias=B737_800\sound Panel requires learning how to add or change one...
