  1. Many years ago, I had a yellow Fiat 850 Sports Coupe... If only it did not burn out on me!
  2. I did leave the door wide open for that! (Best post so far)
  3. Now THAT is stunning!! Guess it's French? Just what we need for our sims. My tie for my 1st Place is the XB-70 Valkyrie & the Tupolev Tu-160 White Swan.
  4. Did I read correctly? Buying a game an investment? (Does it increase in value the longer you keep it? I've been simming for about 30 years now, without 'investing' anything. Yes, I spend time with my hobby, and have a lot of fun with the 'game'. Because of this, I've learnt a lot about different aircraft, and other things that populate my sim world. I have bought myself (not invested in) a set of pedals & a yoke to up my immersion factor. A great freeware developer once said that simming is all about Fun, Facts & Fiction. I also started with a Trash 80, Level 1, many years ago.. Good days indeed with those block graphics & jaggies.
  5. Heady days indeed!! & the choices we have with FS2004.. The immersion factor is huge, Flying the Bugatti scenery, Ford Tri-Motor scenery, Space (Yes, there is Space scenery), The list goes on...
  6. I'm preferring v4.5 I'm finding that, with the same settings, v5's greenery, trees, grass are more brighter than v4.5. Almost cartoonish in a way, when compared with the same scenery & settings in both. I'm still on the fence if I should dump it & keep to v4.5.
  7. I think that I've found the culprit.. My mistake, the error message I'm getting is from the Flying M airstrip, that's from Georender 1, I'm sure. The trees look like white blocks, with trees superimposed on it.I've really gone overboard, with Emma Field, Misty, all the Georender packs & Glacier Bay.It really makes for some nice flying. Something to explore, if you not into the usual point to point flying.Oh, I've also added all of The Ford Tri-Motor Project scenery, as well as Bill Lyons's packages., so I'm having so much fun again, with VFR flying & exploring. I've had the Georender files for ages, & unfortunatly, they are payware.
  8. I wonder if there are anyone that still remembers Misty Moorings & Misty Fjords? I had forgotten what fun they are to fly in, & after many years, I've reinstalled them. All good, except in 'Misty's Place' & another field that I just cannot remember, I've got what can be described as tank farms lining the runway. These, I'm sure, should be trees. Anyone come up against this?
  9. I'm adding Orbyx scenery manually, no issues so far. I guess I'm just old school & prefer doing things myself.
  10. Well, it does not happen to everybody. It's actually quite amazing that Updates work with all the thousands of computer hardware variations out there. I have no issues or slowdowns with my Windows 11 laptop, & no stutters with my P3Dv4.5, & my updates are up to date.
  11. I know that I'm late with this, but I also cannot download LMML. Both the download buttons on the part as well as the complete versions are greyed out, and there is nothing to download in the Version tab. I signed up yesterday at Simmerhome, and was approved this morning. I've filled out all I can in my profile. Any help appreciated.
  12. It was a payware model, unfortunately.
  13. Yes!!! I forgot about that one. Great looking aircraft.
