did you know that FSX Acceleration only lets you use multiplayer on Acceleration? Example: My friend has FSX. I have FSX Acceleration. I cant fly with him until he gets Acceleration or i uninstall Acceleration. FSX Acceleration multiplayer is a bit better, because its more orgainzed, but as of Sunday, 1:00 PM EST, there was only 4 FSX Acceleration severs up and running.

Also, FSX Acceleration DOES NOT INCULDE 2D cockpits on its new planes. I might e-mail them to make a a SP for Acceleration including: Two fuel tanks in the P-51D (The P-51D only has one fuel tank in the left wing so it turns unless you only fill the tank halfway), and 2D panels for all the new planes

No, its not Acceleration, its SP2

You can not multiplayer with anyone who is not running SP2 until they upgrade.

Ummm, read this when you posted it yesterday in another thread.

That really doesnt have much do this with this. It just proves me correct. Doesnt solve my problem.

No your problem is that you haven't realized that THAT's the way the Acceleration model was designed.  The P-51 in Acceleration is not a "fighter"  model, it is a RACING model, therefore, the one tank in the left wing.

Also, until your friend upgrades to Acceleration/SP2, no, you cannot do a multiplayre session (unless you uninstall Acceleration/SP2)

Acceleration is built around the racing aspect, and so the flight model is geared around a modified Merlin engine, not the "combat" workhorse.

I have also been told that durring the course of such modifications, a single tank located in one wing is a configuration that has been used to counteract masive rotational forces induced by 2xhorsepower engines and shortened (thus more unstable) wings

It does not prove you correct, it proves you wrong. It has everything to do with the OP.

Nick N said that only players running SP2 (and Acceleration) can play multiplayer together.

Ok, I think that it should be OPTIONAL. IF YOU TURN DOWN REALISM, IT SHOUNDNT HAPPEN. I turned realism down to nothing, and same problem. Anyways, they really OVERDID IT. It wouldnt go 80 degrees to the left in real life.

The P-51 in Acceleration is not a "fighter"  model, it is a RACING model, therefore, the one tank in the left wing.

It strikes me that unless this is a Griffon-engined variant the fuel tank is in the wrong wing.

Just a couple of thoughts:  

You should be able to change to location of the fuel tank in the 'aircraft.cfg' file so it flies to your liking.

You can still fly together on an FSHost server although the extended FSX Multiplayer features will not be available.

Ah, finally, some good advice, but, my friend, I have no clue of how to move the fuel tank over. Im only 10. Once I installed the SDK, I had no clue of what to do.

Could someone possible redo the Mustang so the ADI and Fuel tanks balance out?

So the aircraft in accerellation do not have 2-D panels?

No, they do not. Better get used to it.  2d panels will soon be extinct...  ;D

NOOOOOO 2D Panels are da bomb! Easier to click things


You are one stubborn 10 year old

Im not the one removing the panels......But the F/A-18 has a 2D HUD
