You certainly have my attention.  Been watching the intake for the monthly screenshot contest and am really envious of how sharp and unjaggy all of your shots are.  Something to strive for.

OLD:  Yes, I understand re computers.  I wish I had a wife who understood these damned things but she's an Italian and specializes in bites (cooking) rather than bytes. I just needed to rant a bit. As for splash, this has driven me to several splashes of the kind you refer to. .

SHANE:  Thanks for the tip.  What I can't understand is, I have never used the photo program, nerver downloaded to it,   and didn't even know I had it in the computer.  But  I'll work on it.

PROP: It seems there are more than one versions of GE. The one I have is an overhead shot of a jetliner over Manhattan and is marketed by Flight 1 software. It was developed by Peter Wilding and Anthony Vos. It comes with a booklet on configuration. Your screnshot  is beautiful and nothing like what my version of GE produces.

The people who made REP, and REX are making a FS9 version of REX.

Great tips here! FS9 is wonderful and I don't mean to be overly critical re the scenery. It's all magic!

Another payware mesh to consider is FS Genesis www.fsgenesis.com.

I believe the GE versions that DenisH and I have are simply 'detuned' GE Pro's.  At the time, the Pro didn't seem worth the extra money but, as with most things in life, you get what you pay for.

[quote]I just upgraded my FS from FSX to FS2004, and I can't figure out how to add new aircraft frames, i.e. A330, A340, and the A380?

FS 2004 is for all those, like me, who have/had purchased FSX (when it was first released) , tried it out, and found that it fails dismally to perform to our satisfaction with our existing Hardware.

I have spent the past few years enjoying "flying" daily all round the World with my FS 2004, instead of spending the past few years dedicated to viewing the FSX and Hardware Forums in a vain attempt to improve the situation with FSX.

I despair for all the Flight Sim Newbies who waste their time desperately trying to get FSX to perform to their satisfaction, when actually they could be up in the air, and flying, with a copy of FS 2004...and then concentrate on FSX at a later date when their Computer System is more suitable for the application!.... ...!

I have both FSX, (since the day it was released in England), AND FS 2004 on my hard drive, but until my Hardware becomes suitable for running FSX "smoothly" to my satisfaction, I spend my time daily enjoying FS 2004...with FSX "sometime in the future".... [smiley=thumbsup.gif]...!

I prefer daily "Flying", which was what the Flight Sim was meant for, instead of daily Fiddling, and desperately trying to get it to work!......!

Providing that my outside scenery pleases and satisfies me as I travel the World, I have little interest in the quality or appearance of the Aircraft which I pretend to "fly"... ...!

Paul...G-BPLF...FS 2004...(and FSX)...The Explorer... ...!

I just read some commentary in a Simviation thread that FS2004 is now unobtainable. I didn't note the thread nor did I register if the posters were in the UK or other parts of the world.  But 2004 is available here in the USA and is currently being offered by Amazon for about $14. I'm considering buying a copy or two as a backup against the day Microsoft no longer markets it.

Isn't FS9 FS2004? I thought it was.

Alex, if its just to do with settings, etc, then according to the multitude of never-ending posts for help, etc, in the FSX
