wiekniera,

That is very interesting. Thanks for the heads up!

My old WindowXP computer bit the dust a couple of weeks ago. Since then the inclination to run any of the Photodex slideshows on my newer Window 8.1 rig had not presented itself.

After reading your post I tried to play them on my Windows 8.1 rig and experience the same problem as you. They won't play- in either FireFox or Chrome.

So, I did some googling on the problem.

As it turns out, Photodex Presenter no longer functions as a plug-in with 64-bit versions of either Firefox or Chrome and as yet Photodex has not developed an updated version that will work.

However, when I tried playing them on Internet Explorer (Version 11) they work fine. I think I may have got some sort of message to click/enable the Presenter plug in, but other than that they work fine.

So if you would really like to view the slideshows try using IE. They're worth a look, IMHO. ;^)

I can re-compile the slideshows and upload them in the form of FaceBook or YouTube-style videos. I might just do so.

Again, thank you for letting me know about the problem.

Cheers,
Chris

Turns out Firefox offers what it calls a 32-bit Extended-Support-Release (ESR) version of Firefox that will allow these older NPAPI plug-ins to still work. But support for the ESR will only go through early 2018.

See this page at Mozilla

Cheers,
Chris

Hehe,

To tell ya truth I wouldn't even know where to begin. There is so much scenery available that it would take a better man than I to put it into some sort of coherent order for you to make informed choices.

The subject has been broached several time in the past. Try searching the threads.

I would suggest starting with a very small area of interest. Nt even the entire PTO. Maybe a small part of it. There is a lot of PTO scenery available much of it way better than anything I have ever done. If you start off with a small area it will give you the opportunity to get most if not all of the incidentals (the little bits and pieces that are required in all scenery packs) installed along with it.

Freeware Option

Foe anyone in this thread, you may be interested in the multiple cloud sets done by Chris Willis.
Login @ flightsim.com and search his name.
He has some very fine renditions, MANY renditions. These are my favorites. The hard part will be deciding which to use.
