here's just a little something to show what it looks like

pretty good. the waves are a bit exaggerated IMO but all around looks great.

now for the juicy stuff..... Ok to open the file just drag the OceanHeightField file to the DXTBmp icon and it will open right up. on the right hand side towards the middle of the window you will see two check boxes. one says "include when saving" make sure that one is checked uncheck the other one if it is checked. now go to "File>Save As>Extended Bitmap" then a box will come up and click the drop down box and select "Extended 32 bit 888-8" click save. your sim should now work with out any problems

Okay, slow down a sec.

Re te screen shots...  Woooo!  Nice!

[N. Chapman]

would you like me to send you the file? i can do that if you want

[Boikat]

If that won't step on anyone's toes.  I'll PM you my e-mail addy.  Thanks.

[Boikat]

Thanks.  Got it.  Will try it shortly.  RL is interfering with simviating. I hate it when that happens.

Still no joy.  Right after it gets to 68% of the scenery, it crashes.  Here's the "problem signature" from teh details on the crash:

Somehow I managed to get something mixed up with the original and the indigo, and just finished uninstalling FS9 and reinstalling. :p

Odd thing is, I made a backup of the guage, effects and aircraft files, put them in a nice safe place, did the uninstall, reinstalled FS(, started it, just to make sure it was working, and lo and behold, all my add-on ac are already available on te startup.  I haven't placed them back in the ac folder. (or the effects  or guages, either)

Vista is weird.

Oh well.  I think I'll wait with EI until after an upgrade or two.

Thanks for trying to help out!

Only 4 B777's to choose from.

MelJet, Overland, PSS or Posky (have seen the previews they posted).

[N. Chapman]

POSKY's but its the donators beta so its not available to just anyone
