Hi Geremy,
The game they are discussing is Microsoft Flight Simulator 2002. 
Unfortunately, since the release of Flight Simulator 2004 and Flight 
Simulator X for Vista finding a legal copy of FS 2002 is a pain to find. 
You might try Ebay.com. I amanaged to get a copy from my Step Dad who 
owned a copy of FS 2002, and gave it away when he upgraded to a newer 
version.
In order to use FS 2002 with Jaws or Window Eyes you need to buy a third 
party program called FS Navigator which makes some of the flight 
features accessible. It is not a cheap investment and unfortunately I 
can't play FS 2002 right now since it isn't compatible with Win Vista 
which I am running on my old and new laptop computers.

I tried fs 2k2 for a bit.
However I have had to delete it, because my 2.4ghz 512mb ram system just can't 
handle it right.

Is that so?

I've ran it on a 1.1 GHZ AMD athlon machine with 512 mb ram. It didn't 
scream, perhaps, but it got the job done (and I love that system, I sware by 
athlons).

[Audyssey] Microsoft flight simulator 2002 help

2008-01-28 Thread Bo
Hello everyone,
  I am kind of new at sending messages to people, but I hope to do better in 
the future. I do have a question it is about Microsoft flight simulator 2002.
I have heard from the internet, and by Scott Shades podcasts that you can 
perform a simulated flight using FS Navigator along with using some additional
add ons.Mr. Shade has taught me alot on what to do , but he has not completely 
shown how to move the aircraft while on the ground, and the takeoff thru
the landing phase. If you have any suggestions or experience that you will 
share I would be greatly appreciated. I know that some blind people might think
that it is a waste of time learning how to  fly a plane, but I used to be a 
pilot in my former sighted life, and if anyone trying this needs any help just
ask, after all those of us without sight have to band together for what we 
want. I think that it is a shame that more pc games are not accessible to the
blind gamer. Well thanks for letting me bend your ear for a minute or two.  
Take care all and have a nice day.
   Sincerly Bo

Hi Bow,

Here's what you've got to do.

1.  Make sure your Fly FP box is checked.
2.  Make sure your ap box is checked.
3.  Check your alt, and I think it's heading.  Yes.
4.  Check your IAS (indicated airspead).
5.  Your plane will start powering up and you'll hear your engines cycling, 
speeding up.
6.  Hit the control and period I think it is.  It's been a while sense I've 
done it.
7.  Off you go.  Just don't turn off autopilot unless you want to ahve a 
nifty little crash.

Tootles.

The game is microsoft flight simulator.  It's actually a mainstream game. 
You've got to use FSnavigator to make it accessible.  The website for the 
add on is www.fsnavigator.com
I don't know where you can get FS 2k2.  Ebay or simmarket.com is a good 
starting place.
