Default AFP deluxe

hi guys,
just removed AFP and installed my new Deluxe. what a difference between the two ! couple questions..everything works fine except my keyboard numbers won't allow me to edit the throws. (keyboard is working on other programs)any ideas? does anyone know if the slow-ride 4-d foamy VPP flies realistically?
thanks !

What makes it better? I've had AFP for quite a while and have and still am wondering if I should get the update.

Thanks

I am not sure why but the number pad on the keyboard does not work on mine, but the numbers work fine that are on top of the keyboard...for me anyway.

if i make a copy of a plane and name it *&% 3D the number 3 works it's just when i go to edit the throws. do you use the numbers at the top to edit with? ( i'm charging my radio so i can use AFP deluxe)
chris the graphics are alot better IMO. the grass looks like grass, same w/ sky and sunshine, the foamy's are unbelievable how they fly and look

I've been thinking about getting AFP, I don't know if my computer is good enough though, I have a pentium 4 running at 3Gig, got 512mb of ram, and intel integrated xtreme graphics.....do you guys think thats good enough??? I'm not to savvy with computers

P.S, I have microsoft flight sim 2004, seems to run great on this computer

Xtreem, did you buy deluxe or did you send for the update? If you did the update, and don't mind me asking what is that going to run me?

I run my AFPD on a P4 1.8 Ghz. 256meg of ram and a 256 M Nvidia video card. Still get 80 frames a second, down too 50 a second with smoke on.

Should be no problems.

crazyextra, the specs look good except for the graphics, the integrated graphics card most likely will not work very well. I have tried a setup like that on my buddies comp. and it performed poorly. You need a seprate grafix card for AFPD to work properly a 75 - 100 dollar graphics card from best buy would be fine something with 125 meg and direct x compatible...standard 3dgraphic accelerator stuff and it will work like a champ.
