FLY ! Sydney in FLY! Seeing as I had an overseas visitor coming to town and I'd arranged a flight in mate Ken Woolfe's Cessna 172 - I thought a practice run would be in order. Now which sim? Unfortunately Falcon 4.0 doesn't have Sydney scenery ... YET!... so I was left with Microsoft Flight Simulator 98 or FLY!. Having read Chino's report on TerraScene 2 I was all revved up for a night of downloading and compiling - having been promised this was "easy" - hopefully easier than patching Falcon 4.0 !!! So, hopes high, I set off via the FLY! links page to get me some Terrascene.... |
Minutes later I had turned an unnatural shade of scenery green as I saw that the download was 25 MEG - that was OK - but 100 MEG for the new scenery files!!! Mmmmm - with a 56 KL modem that would take me 8 hours - but my connection times out at 4. I could use Gozilla to breaj up the download but I had gotten rid of that program after the "spyware" scandals early in 1999. All was not lost however! READ ON Email MiGMan with your experiences or any information related to this sim. |
