Audacity: Free Audio Editor and Recorder
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 Review
Microsoft Flight Simulator 2004 Review
I myself am a big flight simulator fan, and before i get the new fsx, i have to write a review of Flight Simulator 2004.'
First of all, i have to say this is a great GAME. Any real pilot that says "o this is way easier than fling a real plane" i advise you, this is just a game. But the good thing is, un like fsx, this game can run on any not-so-fast computer on at least low settings. Over all the years of Microsoft's flight simulator (discluding x ) i'de have to say this is the best one yet. You can fly all different kinds of planes, any where in the world. You can also customize everything, so it works best for your system. At first, when you get this game you say " so all i do is fly the plane, huh...." But after a week or two you get to know all the cool different features, places, and controls. And with this games new Air Traffic Control window, talking to atc is a breeze. But this game is not the best for online play. ( for the best online play get fsx). My only dislike is the game gets boring after a while.
Overall i would rate this game a 8 on a 1-10 scale.
Virtual Machines!!
All of you hardcore users will know what a Virtual Machine is, if you don't know, it is a program that can let you run operating systems inside your operating system virtually (hardware emulation). The main Virtual Machine software is Vmware, and vmware player, etc. But today we are going to focus on VirtualBox, my favorite Virtual Machine software, and it is probably also the easiest to use!
In this post, I will show you where to get VirtualBox, and I will do a step-by-step tutorial using Vista. (In a linux envirornment).
1st of all, to download VirtualBox, go here.
Ubuntu users can download from there, and also do "sudo apt-get install VirtualBox"
Now load VBox. You should get this -
Now, click the button that says "New" and you should get this (click to enlarge) -
Just hit next and select the name of your vm (can be anything) and select your operating system you want to emulate. Then hit next and select the amnt of RAM you want to dedicate to a VM. This is your descision, it all depends how much RAM you have and how much you can sacrifice. Of course, for Vista, we do not recommend anything less than 1gb, but for some ppl that is ALL of their RAM!! After that click "New" on the hard disk page, I strongly recommend Dynamically Expanding Image, and from then on it should be easy, and now your screen should look like this-
But we are STILL not done yet. Click on CD/DVDROM, and choose your cd/dvd drive (or an iso file). You can also setup audio and other things (like networking, but should be automatic).
That's all for now, and we will wrap it up in another post!!!

Unlimited balls:
Type bmax at the full screen when the game firsts
starts up. Note: This will work on Windows XP, but not on Windows
NT 4.0.
Majin Brolli
and Michael Waldron.
Note: When the above code says "full screen", it does
not mean the full screen when the game starts up. Press [F4]
to enter the full screen game mode and the code will work. The
extra balls will appear from the yellow wormhole.

Note: Enabling this code will disable high scores from being recorded.

Extra balls:
Type 1max during game play to earn extra balls.
Note: This will work on Windows XP.

Activate Gravity Well:
Type gmax at the start of the game to activate
the Gravity Well. Note: This will work on Windows XP.

Complete promotion:
Type rmax during gameplay to instantly complete
promotion. Note: You will not earn points doing this.
Larry Ledbetter.
More points:
Light up all three lights at the top by going through
the slots. The bumpers will change colors and are worth more points.

When deploying a ball hit it soft so it only goes up to the third
light on the far right side. You will get 75,000 points.
Eddie808912867.
To earn points, start a game. When playing a game, send the ball
through the Hyperspace Chute to spin the flag. While it is spinning,
start a new game. That flag will still spin and you will earn
some points at the start of the new game.
Larry Ledbetter.
Enable the bmax code to keep getting balls when you lose
them. You can get a very high score by doing this. If you do this
and get a high enough score, keep pressing [Bump] so it
says "TILT" and you will lose a ball. Note: You can
also use the 1max code after you lose a ball to keep going.
This way, you do not have to tilt the board when you want to quit.
Fakey McFake.
if you restart a bad game when you are going through a wheel door
at the correctly moment, you will get the points for it.

Cheat code note:
A cheat code will not work if you have the any of the
player controls mapped to a letter in the code.

Move lights:
Move the lights at the top by moving the flippers.

Skill Shot:
A hidden Skill Shot tunnel is in the deployment chute.
Launch the ball partially up the chute and allow it to fall to
the first yellow arch light. There are six yellow arch lights
in the chute that are worth a varying amount of points.
gscot.
To unlock the Skill Shot, the point range for each light up are:
Chocobo World.
First: 15,000 points
Second: 30,000
Third: 75,000
Fourth: 30,000
Fifth: 15,000
Sixth: 7,500
