Looking for a flight game.

Any type of aviation game (flight simulator, combat, whatever), as long as it will work on my p.o.s. machine (500MHz, 128 RAM). And with reasonable graphics, yet smooth playing.

[Also, I only have an 8GB hard drive.]

Worship Examples - Christians' love for God should be seen and heard, not merely talked about. It is through actions that one is determined to be Christian, not through words. Words (and thoughts, as well) deceive even one's own self, but the heart speaks truth.

Decent: Freespace, if sci-fi is your bag. go for Freespace 2 if you can get it though, as its got better graphics and a few improvements.

Rogue Squadron 3D if you want to fly around and shoot things. MS Flight Sim '98 if you want to fly around and botch the landing.

I forgot all about Freespace. I meant to get it when it came out, but for some reason forgot all about Descent in general.

Jane's USAF and WWII Fighters. They may be hard to find, but they are classics, especially WWII Fighters. If you have a decent video card (32 MB or more) they should run and look great. Even by today's standards, USAF's graphics are hardly lacking at all.

I always loved European Air War. Was great fun multiplayer too.

should run on your system [http://forums.massassi.net/html/smile.gif] I used to run it on a 366mhz AMD with 128mb ram and a Voodoo3. What graphics card do you have?

Il-2 sturmovik is the best flight sim currently but it will not run in your system. Have you considered upgrading?

Nothing special. I can't seem to find anything about it except "chipset integrated 3D AGP Accelerator." Whatever it is, it came integrated with my motherboard.
