Sean Findlay 1165616 Posted May 23, 2011 at 01:04 AM Posted May 23, 2011 at 01:04 AM This is probably an old topic somewhere..or a wish list item, but I am flying FS9, using SB4 and a few add on aircraft, but for the most part default stuff when I am soaring around VATSIM. I used FSInn for a while but it didn't really agree w/ my 32bit Vista etc...and sometimes crashed. I love SB4, but no longer have a Radar screen. Is there any freeware out there I can install/mod with SB4 so I can see other aircraft around me. I tried one from flightsim.com but it didn't work well. Let me know and thanks for the help in advance! Thanks Sean DVA4141 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ernesto Alvarez 818262 Posted May 23, 2011 at 01:10 AM Posted May 23, 2011 at 01:10 AM you mean a TCAS? yes, check out flightsim.com and avsim.com. they should have several you can add to your panel or even stand alone Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trent Hopkinson Posted May 23, 2011 at 03:12 AM Posted May 23, 2011 at 03:12 AM TCAS doesn't neccicarily show every aircraft in your range. Only those near you and airborne (though some show on the ground traffic too) some/correct TCAS simulations won't show aircraft 1 mile away but 20,000ft below you for instance. And if you want to get technical, the FSinn "radar" works more like ADS-B than Radar. But yeh. TCAS might work for your purposes.

Sean Findlay 1165616 Posted May 24, 2011 at 12:39 AM Author Posted May 24, 2011 at 12:39 AM Thanks for the help. I know about the TCAS files available out there and they are cool, but I was hoping for something a bit simpler...like a single gauge for radar (simple is fine) which I can simply add to any aircraft I wish (Panel) and [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ociated gauge file(s), with a icon (like the others for GPS, Map, Comp[Mod - Happy Thoughts], Radio in the default acft) for it alone to bring the radar screen up. I have not seen this anywhere (yet), but have my fingers crossed. I am very limited on my knowledge as far as modding FS goes, but I am willing to bet something like this would be a nice feature without the learning curve (for us weekend warriors).
