Tower 3D & Tower 3D Pro Custom Schedule's list :)

This document contains links to recommended custom schedule's (airport timetables) for airports included with Tower3D. I'll refer to schedule as timetable for the remainder of this document for consistency and easier understanding for those whose first language is not English.

In order to download them, you will need to have a forum account (sign-up is free).

Make sure to READ the forum posts, as they give instructions on how to install the custom timetable and what is included.

CUSTOM AIRPORT TIMETABLES

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• All links open in a new tab or window!
• Double check that the timetable you wish to use, is compatible with the latest version of Tower3D Pro prior to installing. i.e. Read the developer's first post for this information.
• You may want to backup your original timetable files (though you can simply re-run the original airport installer again to re-install these if need be).
• Support is provided on the airport timetable thread by the developer (i.e. the link in the table below).
• Each author has based their contribution upon real life airport timetables.

Developer Notes:

• Most of crbascott's airport timetables include each day of the week. These are illustrated in the table below with a *.
• ATC Joe's airport timetables have some aircraft which appear white due to how he implements them. If you prefer to see aircraft liveries, as I do; you may want to consider using an alternate option.

You can check this link for a complete list which uses the forum search criteria "custom schedule", sorted by date (most recent post will be at the top).

Last update to this blog post was on the 24th/Sept/2022.

The table is ordered, firstly by airport (A-Z) and then by author (A-Z).
crbascott's and Eligrim's schedules are no longer available as of 21st Aug 2019.
* battlehawk has included a week's worth of daily timetables for this airport.

How to install anti-vibration rubber rivets for any type of fan? [Picture Guide]

Hi all,

Today I installed my new case fans using anti-vibration rubber rivets. At the same time I took some pictures in order to help explain how to do it for others as it isn't as easy as you would think!

The fans I am installing are the 140mm Bitfenix Spectre Pro PWM fans into the front of my new case; the Corsair 750D.

However you can use this guide for any type of fan (90mm, 120mm, 140mm, 200mm or 230mm) and any computer case.

NOTE: All pictures can be "zoomed in" by clicking on them :D (right clicking and selecting "View Image" will allow or much larger image).

Step 1 - Select where you are going to install your fan!

I'll be installing my fans into the front to replace the default Corsair 750D fans. Why? These Bitfenix fans have a higher air flow than those that come with the case.

Here's the first one already installed to give you an idea of the end look:

So my next fan will be fitted just below the first fan I installed.

Step 2 - Install the rubber rivets into the case screw holes first!

First you will need to place the rubber rivets in the screw holes.

IMPORTANT: Make sure you check which screw holes line up with the fan holes. You want to place the rubber rivets into the correct holes first time round!

To install the rubber rivet, feed it through the screw hole as illustrated below:

You need to be very firm (i.e. use some force) to get the rivet to feed through fully.

Step 3 - Install the washer into place!

Once the rubber rivet is installed into the case screw hole, you can place the washer on.

Install the washer as illustrated below:

Make sure to push down on the washer so it pushes past the rivet's "head" piece.

Step 4 - Install the remaining rubber rivets into the case screw holes!

Again double check where your rubber rivets need to be so that they are aligned with the fan screw holes.

If you don't, you'll find yourself in a right mess uninstalling the rubber rivets in order to put them into the correct screw holes.

Once all rubber rivets (including their washers) are installed you will have the following:

Step 5 - Align the fan into place and feed the rivets through!

Align the relevant fan screw holes up with the bottom or top rivets first (it's easier to do the bottom in this scenario).

Now would also be a good time to feed through any wires into places where you want them.

Once done you will have the following:

Align and feed through the remaining rubber rivets.

Step 6 - Finish the installation by securing the fan into position!

Read before doing this step as it is complex and tricky!

In order to secure the fan in place, you will need to pinch the end of the rubber rivet with one hand. I would recommend placing your other hand on top of the fan.

With the hand that is pinching the rubber rivet; pull (with some force) whilst at the same time pushing down on the fan with your other hand.

Try to be careful as I did break one of my rubber rivet heads by pulling too hard!

You will feel the rubber rivet clip into place.

NOTE: In the picture you cannot see my other hands thumb which is holding onto the rubber rivet inside the case. I did this so that the rubber rivet head didn't get feeded through the case screw hole.

Once you feel the rubber rivet clip into place you should find that the fan corner has been secured. Gently pull on the fan to double check the rivet is secure:

Step 7 - Secure the remaining corners of the fan using the same technique as mentioned in step 6 above! Also double check the rubber rivet heads are secure properly!

Installation finished. Look carefully in the below picture at how the rubber rivet heads look so you know if yours are also secured properly.

Some of your rubber rivet heads may need to be pulled back a little on the opposite side so that the fan is secured properly.

Try to be careful as I did break one of my rubber rivet heads by pulling too hard when doing this step:

Windows XP Pro BSOD Event ID 7000 "Parallel Port Driver Service failed ..." [Solution]

Do you keep getting blue screen of death (BSOD) or sudden system power off with a restart? I had this recently when playing OMSI Bus Simulator but this can happen in other circumstances as well from the research I did on this. Either way this should help you fix this issue.

If you do check 'System' within your Event Viewer (Control Panel - Administrative Tools - Event Viewer). Look out for:

Event ID 7000, Source "Service control Manager", Description "The Parallel port driver service failed to start due to the following error: The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.

Print Screen:

SOLUTION

Step 1) Boot into your motherboards BIOS and disable the parallel port (see your motherboards manual on how to do this).

If you don't know what make and model your motherboard is then use PC Wizard to find this out so you can download the manual from your motherboards manufactures web site (Google the manufacture if you don't know their web site address).

Step 2) Within Windows XP Professional open Device Manager (Start - Run, type in "devmgmt.msc" without the quotes and click ok).

Within Device Manager click on the 'View' menu and select 'Show hidden devices'. Scroll through device manager until you find 'Non-plug and Play Drivers - Parallel port driver', Right click and select 'Disable', click 'Yes' when presented with the stop functioning warning and restart when asked.
