HoratioWondersocks Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 (edited) Hello All Iam in the process of downloading VOZ 180. This package now comes as one complete item (Its a Biggy 599mb) It does have excellent reviews, but would prefer to hear from the horses mouth (You fellows) your thoughts on this addon if you have it installed. Any problems with windows 10 compatibility or other issues i should take note off ? Fs9 has run so well for so long now i do not wish cause problems that would result in huge amounts of steam from ears , and swearing to horrible too contemplate. Thanks a lot Andy. Idiot! I just got within an hour of a completed download ,decided to pause it close the browser (I am sure i did this before with no problems ) and continue later, but have lost the whole bloody thing.....Magma is rising in the chamber.. Am going to have start from scratch tomorrow and leave the browser open .

HoratioWondersocks Posted July 21, 2020 Author Share Posted July 21, 2020 Hey Socks! Sounds like you are on a dial-up connection! :confused: Hello Zip The reason the download is slow is because iam not a premium member at FScom. As a basic member ,you are restricted to a slower download speeds (which is fair enough) Anyway I hope you are progressing in the new PC department ,as I see you have no simulator installed at this time. Which ever sim you are going with. ENJOY.... Cheers Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

napamule2 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 If you go back to download (ie: restart your browser and go to FSCom download) your browser SHOULD realize the download did not finish and take up where it left off. Works for Mozilla, etc. Not sure if so with Internet Explorer. I use Commodo Ice Dragon (a version of FireFox) and it will do that for me. Good luck.

piet06273 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) To me: 'Flightsim.com' is and has allways been the best 'SimSite' ever. But I think 'Fly-awaySimulation' has a 'pro account' that is available on a monthly basis. That's how I got ' GlobalFreewareMesh' 45GB and 'NL2000V4' 35GB in a few houres. Just make a list of 'big files' you want and take a monthly 'pro account' BTW you made me curious: What is VOZ180 ?

VOZ 180 is a complete texture update for the whole of the Australian continent. It also includes airport upgrades as well. This apparently is the last VOZ version ,and it comes as one large package and installer. VOZ has always enjoyed good reviews ,so I thought I would give it a go.

Downloading them from here for both would take, maybe, 15 minutes, give or take a minute or 2. $29.95 a year or $2.50 a month for First Class Membership is a bargain!

HoratioWondersocks Posted July 22, 2020 Author Share Posted July 22, 2020 (edited) Hello All RE voz 180 As i suspected i have had some problems getting this download to work. Initial thoughts that the program had a real quality look to its menus and various selection screens etc (more like a payware offering) BUT! i simply could not get it to run correctly. Although this offering covers the whole of Aus this is split into the various regions of the continent ,and only one of these can be selected at a time. I selected the hot interior (Fascinating red like Mars) .This selection did work and I was duly presented with Mars...Great, but unfortunately trying the other regions resulted in crashes. I decided to uninstall for the moment ,but I will go back and try again sometime as the installation instructions were quite long and detailed ,and as usual with me in these cases I just waded in without reading them to closely ,so its a fair chance that it was my impatience that resulted in the crashes I mentioned. Thanks Andy Edited July 22, 2020 by HoratioWondersocks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zev Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 hmmm, odd. I installed VOZ yesterday and it seems to be working fine. Just as amazing a piece of work as I remember from back in 2008 or so! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidWS Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I used to get that ... flying from NT to NSW or SA to Victoria and everything would lock up. I also got it in the UK frying North-South ... there's something very simple to fix it. It might be installing the GaugeSound.dll into your FS main file .... or adding [oldmodules] FSSound.dll=1 to the fs9.cfg file. It's something as simple as that ...

ussmidway Posted July 23, 2020 Share Posted July 23, 2020 I love VOZ, have it installed now. I don't actually use the textures, I just use it for the airports. But it is a must have for me as I populate my FS9 world with anything that improves the default, and VOZ is a HUGE improvement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
