You'll feel your wheels rolling down the runway and the stick shake in a stall, sense trim forces as you change speeds and power settings, and encounter other effects that make pulling Gs more than a game. To set options for a force-feedback joystick, click Custom Controls on the Options menu and then click the Forces tab. New Sights and Sounds 3-D acceleration using DirectX and other advanced graphics technology make scenery pop to life. Flight Simulator supports the latest graphics hardware to show you more detail and improved performance. Even if you don't have 3-D hardware, new mipmapping and image-smoothing techniques improve the out-thewindow view. New digitized sounds--from wind noise and tire squeals to whining jet turbines and electronic warnings--immerse you in a realistic flying environment. To set sound options, click Preferences on the Options menu and then click the Display & Sound tab. Multiplayer Multiplayer capability puts you in crowded skies via the Internet Gaming Zone (http://www. zone. com), a network, or a direct connection between two computers. Challenge other pilots to an aerobatic competition on the Internet Gaming Zone. Or put yourself in the control tower and try to keep everyone else organized. To join or host a multiplayer session, click Multiplayer on the Flights menu and follow the instructions on your screen. More Airports and Scenery Flight Simulator 98 gives you the globe. You can take off from more than 3, 000 airports worldwide--10 times more than in previous versions. You'll also find detailed scenery, including atlas data (roads, rivers, lakes) for the U. S. and Europe and over 45 new metropolitan areas, including more than 20 new U. S.
