Fear Factor.... - Pitmurph - 02-12-2005
Here is my quandry....
EVERYTIME I take off out of DFW it ALWAYS gives me "the passenger thought you made a dangerous take off"!!!! This is in the 737-800...
The take off is NO different than anywhere else.... but no matter what I do I get this abonishment.... and ONLY at DFW!!!!
Any ideas????

It is your add-on scenery. A search of the forum will reveal all.

Thanks for replying so quick....
I'm afraid I'm not sure what it is I would be looking for in searching the forum for the answer to this...

Well, in add on scenery the runway included with the addon scenery is only a texture which is applied in an area which FS does not consider the "real"
runway. It can be confusing, but it basically means that FSP thinks you are taking off not on the runway, thus a dangerous takeoff. There are programs
such as "AFCAD" which you can download from the net and which allow you to position runways so that you can match the FS2004 runway area with the
scenery, someone else might be able to elaborate on exactly how to do that, but it's a solution.

If I may, modifying the Afcad file should take about 3 minutes.
Simply open up FS9 and Afcad (the KDFW scenery obviously), and position your aircraft (in top down view) at the corner of the runway.
Now switch to Afcad and check the alignment. Do the same for all 4 corners. If the runway is too short, you'll have to change the length
by double-clicking on it in Afcad and editing the length. This adds equal length to both sides, so you'll have to re-align it again until it's
right.
Also, if it's add-on scenery, you could try a search of the download site for an afcad file made just for it. Try search terms like KDFW,
Afcad, and the name of the scenery or designer. Flightsim.com even has them in categories so you can just search under "gates and
taxiways."

People have mentioned issues at DFW in the past. It's got to be that scenery!

Thanks so much folks!!!!
Very interesting.... currently I use the Just Flight World Airports 2 scenery.... it's great stuff.... but as I am VERY program ignorant... most of
your soultions might as well be written in Greek.... Does anyone know if the AFCAD adjusting would work with this particular add on
scenery???
