Hi,
Had a major problem with the old PC last week and am now backup and running with a clean install of FS.
I had several add-ons installed on my previous version before my little incident and was just wondering what other people would recommend installing first in the way of add-ons?
I had some sound issues when I installed the Greg737 panel previously so am a bit reluctant to reinstall that otherwise just after some advice on scenery files, utilities, recommended planes etc.
Cheers
😳 Wow ,where do you start?
OK here is my 2 pence worth
The nocd crack (from flyaway)
Airport Envoiroment Upgrade V7 For better airports(I think its V7) (Avsim)
A traffic addon (projectAI is very good) (http://www.projectai.com/packages/)
Afcad2 Sort out the parking problems for all your extra traffic (Avsim or https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/1232/afcad-221-for-fs2004/ )
fs9configurator To speed up all AI traffic (http://www.kensalter.com/ )
Fancy flying an Airbus ( http://ifdg.net/data/)
A couple of boeings ( http://ifdg.net/data/)
Some scenery,well that depends on you,here is a list (http://walhalla.mine.nu/fs2004.php )
Any mesh for the areas that you fly (again from the above site)
There are loads more but lets see what everybody else comes up with
Good luck 😉
TTT gave you some great ideas, but load one at a time in case you have a problem. It's easier to catch.
I just remembered about the "greg737" panel
when you d/loaded it there should have been a "SOUND DLL".This sould go to the into the Module folder
(if you get a start up error because of this give me a shout via PM with your email and I will send you an updated one)
😉
Tom,
Sheesh thanks for the detailed reply it's appreciated. I'll look through them and pick up the bits I want. You've given me links that I haven't seen before.
Yes your correct with the greg737 panel, when I installed it last time I kept getting the sound error on startup but just pressed okay and it ran okay (well apart from the sound problems lol). If I get the confidence to reinstall then the patch would be good to have, I'll let you know.
A lot to get through, thanks again!!
Cheers
Paul.
PS - I'm based in the SW of England so fly mainly around there. I did see a scenery pack in the download section for southern england and have already installed that.
From the "greg737" readme:
If you get an FSsound.dll warning when loading Flight Sim just add this line to your fs9.cfg file. FSsound.dll must be loaded for the crew annoucements and Altitude callouts to work.
[OLDMODULES]
FSsound.dll=1

It's in my computer>local disk>documents and settings>user name>application data>microsoft>fs9.
