richiemo Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Gang, did I see somewhere that active camera is no longer avail/supported for FS9. I can't find it on simmarket anymore and may have read somewhere it isn't avail anymore. How disappointing. My whole love affair with FS9 is the ability to go "sit" anywhere I want in the plane, next to the engine, behind the wings etc. Can't do that without active camera. And I know the other add-on "walk around" or whatever it's called is an option but that picks up the sound from outside the plane. It's simply not as good an experience. I still have active camera loaded. I'm just afraid some day if I need to reload FS9 or I want to buy a new computer that I'll lose the ability to roam the cabin.

HornetAircraft Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 hope I don't get banned for this but here goes. As we all know Active Camera's purchase site was through http://www.anticyclone.be/ which went down a few years back. I believe simmarket picked up the sales and had it on their website for a while. however it is no longer for sale anywhere and has essentially disappeared off the face of the internet. I was never able to buy it since I got FS2004 only two or three years back, and didn't know AC even existed. (stock simmer) after finding out about it I tried to find it to purchase but never could. I concluded that it was gone forever and life went on. I came across a crack for active camera but it was for version 2.0 and FS9.0, but after I purchased the ifly 737 and updated my sim to FS9.1 the crack no longer worked. again I was without AC. Then about a month ago I was surfing youtube and stumbled across a youtube video with only a couple hundred views. the person I am I read the description and find a google drive link to the activecamera.dll for FS9.1!!! I downloaded it and installed AC 2.1 into the sim. to my complete shock, upon copying the crack over to the modules folder, I had a fully working Active Camera. as far as I know it is the only remaining good copy of Active camera 2.1 left on the internet so I have it saved to multiple spots on both my drive and my PC so I'll never lose it. with the backstory out of the way, I made a youtube video which I think i'll remake for better clarity, but I have all the needed links including the crack in the video description. I don't know if it would be considered piracy or not, but I cannot legally buy it anymore because it no longer exists. so I use it. youtube link: If it doesn't work or if you have trouble, I'll help as best as I can.

richiemo Posted December 15, 2019 Author Share Posted December 15, 2019 Interesting. I guess the question is, once you download it, that means you can reload anytime you need to? As in, if you ever have to re-install AC or you buy a new computer. I'm kinda let down by whoever created AC cause if they were going to walk away from it there should be a code that is permanent, meaning it always works, vs having to go back and get a new one from him. I know there were no promises, and I know those of us sticking with FS9 are finding less support and fewer add-ons. I get it. But still. Anyway, thx for the tip, I'll try it out.

HornetAircraft Posted December 15, 2019 Share Posted December 15, 2019 The crack is the dll file so you will never have to type in a code. It will work with any new PC if you have to switch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stingray77 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 The crack is the dll file so you will never have to type in a code. It will work with any new PC if you have to switch. Similar problem here: had Active Camera running on my FS9.1 When moving to a new computer the last time a few years ago, there was still someone who could send me a new registration - not so this time... :( I checked out the youtube-video, but failed to find a link to the .dll Then, where does the .dll go? I cannot find that in my "old" fs9-program file...:confused: (I am no more than a "basic computer-user"... Sorry) Thanks and greets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson_new Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 I'm not saying it's true here, but many times links can be found on YouTube by clicking the SHOW MORE link under the video poster's name (in the description).

stingray77 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Thanks, Tom. The linked youtube-video was one, HornetAircraft made and posted himself - there was no link in the comments below his vid - but IN his video he showed the page, where he found the .dll! I checked that one out and it still existed, but unfortunately the link to the .dll in the comments led to a 404-error saying the page did not exist anymore.... :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgibson_new Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 I'm confused. The link he gave: is by Short Final, and contains a valid link. Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingray77 Posted May 18, 2021 Share Posted May 18, 2021 Got it! Thanks a lot, mate... I tried to go via Short Final's original youtube-video, which had the expired link... All well now. Thanks again! :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markhoare Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Try this for as an alternative. http://emarciano.free.fr/En/fs9Toolbox2.htm It has some of the same features as active camera. Also consider Track IR. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stingray77 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 I do have TrackIR and massively enjoy it on my flight sims... ;) Just wanted to get back AC for "completeness". And thanks for the hint to the alternative to AC... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Joop Kruize Posted February 7, 2022 Share Posted February 7, 2022 'Eelde Learjet 45 F1 View '22' op YouTube. This is a test of the F1 Viewer. Due to the lack of an accurate camera in FS2004/FS9 I have the F1 download. Here's a test in the Learjet-45 on runway 23 Airport Eelde NL. It seems to me a great improvement in the cockpit and even outside the aircraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
