• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Name that Sim...

Curious to see if anyone remembers this one. It was one of my favorites back in the day and when it came out, it was WAY advanced stuff. The VC's were droolworthy. Please excuse the 600x480 resolution... :)

Hi,

FS98?
Do not have it on my computer anymore but it is not fs2002 as that one is much more detailed and loads in a jiffy.
 
I was too slow... Bjorn had it!

My system won't run the game well enough to play. The polys are usually distorted or missing so I keep the game for sentimental reasons in hopes that someday I might be able to enjoy it again.
 
I can run it ok on Windows 7, but as you can see, the writing is a bit screwed up on it...
 
Perhaps it would run in an XP VM (Xp Mode)

... that is, if you really wanted to.
 
Unfortunately games don't usually work on XP mode as Direct3D hardware acceleration is disabled. Microsoft's official stance is that XP mode should only be used to support legacy business applications :/
 
NOT to hi-jack your thread kryden...

I've been putting off the system wipe and upgrade to Win7 for a few years now since WinXP Pro has been running flawlessly AND I have an excessive number (LITERALLY 80+) of games installed at various stages of completion. I did purchase a Win7 Pro DVD a few weeks ago just for this gaming rig... maybe it's time... but everything's running so well...

I think it's more about the graphics drivers since everything else about the game works fine. If only nVidia would've somehow integrated 3DFX drivers for their cards... so many issues would've been avoided.
