Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Matt, to catch lightning keep your finger on the V key. You might have to spend an hour or so deleting misses but you're bound to get one bolt. Good luck all. Yep...that is exactly what I was doing...flying in external view with my finger half pressing the V key down...and missing the bolt on 19 out of 20 presses. Haha...so frustrating thinking bout all those super bright multi-forkers that zapped by on the left, right and straight ahead...but I got the oddball weird low and horizontal bolt out of all those...heh. I even tried the Replay function after a particularly good bolt, but could never get it to pause RIGHT On the bolt, nor could I catch it while the replay was running. I tried that over and over for about 1/2 hour before giving up and going back to plan A (One finger on V key and cross all others and all the toes and hope for a Lucky Strike ). Whoever wins this one with a great lightning bolt is going to EARN it. Haha. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Aero Ghost 23 Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Im not even at the main trouble yet. My new Tristar's textures are messed up for some reason, and I have to reinstall it when I have time, when I finish all school work. I won't be posting pictures right now, but I will make sure to do soon! Meanwhile, good luck on the snapshots! Link to post Share on other sites
SEATAC 400 Posted November 16, 2014 Report Share Posted November 16, 2014 Didn't we have a screenshot contest theme of low and slow not too long ago? Seems awful early to do a repeat. Now that I look deeper, it was in March 2011 Link to post Share on other sites

J G 927 Posted March 4, 2015 Report Share Posted March 4, 2015 What you are looking at is the future of flight simulator cockpits. I heard somewhere that the average age of FSX users is getting older, and the older you are..... well lets just say that things you once took for granted are less reliable than they once were. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

J G 927 Posted March 5, 2015 Report Share Posted March 5, 2015 Are you talking about ForceFeedback? Forcefeedback? Ah yes! In the context of the Sim-kharzi photo, that would be the colonic irrigation of the flight sim world. Some swear by it. some swear at it. Personally I have no wish to grasp someone's long black and vibrating joystick. Link to post Share on other sites

J G 927 Posted March 7, 2015 Report Share Posted March 7, 2015 If that chair was an airline seat..... "Ladies and gentlemen this is a safety announcement. There is one emergency evacuation exit under your seat, and it is equipped with toilet paper and life rafts. These rafts may be detached in the event of a large water evacuation. The over-wing doors should only be used if the person next to you evacuates badly. For our customers on the Upper Deck, your evacuation route will be down through the cabin below. Seats 1 through 60 on the lower deck are equipped with umbrellas. The cabin pressure is controlled for your comfort. However, should it’s freshness change radically inflight, oxygen compartments will automatically open in the panel above your seat. Reach up and pull the mask to your face. This action will start the flow of fresh air. This service is only available to Business and first class passengers. Spare paper rolls are found under your seat, and our first and business class passengers will find an air freshener as well. Ladies and gentlemen thank you for your time and enjoy your flight." 2 Link to post Share on other sites
