Howz come the splashscreen wandered to the bottom of the screen?

That happens sometimes ...

Look for the line that reads 'Location' under the [MAIN] section in your fs9.cfg.
It looks like you have have a wide screen so I don't know the values but for my 1280x1024 screen the settings are 316,222,964,756.

Fiddling with these settings should solve any splashscreen placement problems.

Let me know if that worked ....

Fiddling with the numbers didn't help.

I removed the [main] section, started the sim, and it was fine, the sim re-wrote that section...  ;)

Simple way to re-center the splash screen in FS9 if I remember correctly:

Switch to  window mode and center the window on your screen.
Switch back to full screen.

The next time you start FS9 the SS should be centered.

You really do your nickname justice don't you

Cool tip! Didn't know that

Yes, that's a good tip. My sim's been on full-screen mode ever since I got it!

It's a shame that there isn't a method for uprating the opening screen size from 800 x 600 to 1024 x 768, or 1280 x 1024 - it would be good to have a screen-sized splash screen rather than a little box in the middle. (Another advantage that FS2002 had over FS9. There aren't many!) Anybody know if it can be done?
