've got X Plane v8.15 and I can't figure out how to run it in full screen, I already checked the options and I just can't get it to fullscreen, just another window, any help?

Got to Settings>Rendering Options.
Select your screen res, and check the "Select color-depth and monitor resolution on X-plane startup" box. Restart x-plane.

btw. How come you are running 8.15? You should update to 8.20, if not for the Eurocopter itself.

Yeah, Eurocopter EC120B Colibri. You should really check it out. It has an amazing full 3D glass cockpit.
EC120B Colibri Quicktime video: 39.6mb @ 640x480 and 2mn. 23sec.

I don't think there is a 8.20 patch. You download the game of their website thats 8.20. It's a full game without the scenery. You just install it over your current installation.

Is there a way to get this game for free? I tried it a long time ago but it was the demo and it sucked bcause after 15 minutes or something you couldn't play anymore or something.

You can dowloand global scenery (generation 7) for free from http://www.chromatix.uklinux.net/scenery/download.html

Note that this scenery does not look anything like the generation 8 scnery, not to mention generation 8.21. But hey, its free, and accurate.

If you want free custom scenery, that covers small area, but is more detailed, looke here:
http://www.x-plane.org/. The "Paris" one is supposed to be pretty good.

I was reffering to the mini-image, which is under 2.5mb Wink

"mini-image" is a ripped image file that emulates the full DVD/CD (this is used for mounting) and allows you to by-pass certain copy protections.. The image is usually a few mb in size, thus "mini"..

thought I would put that in the mix as it seemed people where confused.. note the above is only acurate to my 4am rantings, and its not "factual" only informative Smile!
