This "getting FS Passengers for FSX ready" thing is getting pathetic!

Dan:

Are you working the FS2004 FSP update as well?

[gronji2004]

What will this update include Dan? Just fixes or new features?

This thread looking like something in between a shouting match and a religious war I hesitate putting a serious comment in here. Still,
given the subject it looks like the only appropriate thread, so here we go...

I fully appreciate that a one man crew is not the same thing as a professional team. I also understand things work pretty different in FSX.
However in my opinion that does not change the fact that I paid good money for FSpassengers just a few months before FSX was
released, having the expectation a free or limited price update would be released shortly after. Again, I don't blame anyone for this being
very hard because of limited or non-existing upward compatibility of FS9 to FSX. Still, you should not shoot people who have had such
expectations and ask politely for progress updates (excluding the people who apparently never learnt how to behave). Btw, MS claims
they support all addware suppliers actively to cope with the changes, so won't they help Dan? I would assume the logic can stay the
same, just the interfaces change? In that case MS providing this info would save Dan a lot of time experimenting?

In a lot of comments I read that I should shut up and just keep using the 2004 version because FSX sucks anyway. Well I think FSX is so
much better than FS9 that I have not used FS9 since I first installed FSX. I rather not use FSpassengers than not use FSX. After all
FSpassengers is the plug-in and FSX is the core product. And I think paying customers are entitled to something better than "shut
up,
don't you see how difficult it is, just use the old stuff because the new stuff sucks anyway".

I'd really appreciate a sticky post with a short update, say once a month, on the status. Just a few lines to say what is happening. Doesn't
take a lot of time and keeps a lot of people happy.

I have to say that I agree with you. Personally I don't like people that demands information about a product, but on the other side I can't
see how difficult it would be to give out some statusinformation once or twice a month. As a software developer myself I know how hectic
things can be, but in this case you also have to think about your customers.

Personally I have never tried FSP (I have FSX). but after reading all about the functionallity and the exciting FSP users, I'm really looking
forward to play it in the future. I'm checking this site several times each week to see if there are some progress/news about the FSP for
FSX. When FSP for FSX is released, I know I will be one of the first to buy it

Don't know also why they hav done that with their SDK. And why it's so hard to code some module for FSX
Phil Taylor is a very kind guy, always keeping inform people on each step and also very passionate with FSX but maybe it's a direct order from
Microsoft who said that we has to stop all these addon... (but I don't think it's a smart way to earn a lot of money)

It's probably due to the fact that FSX is a totally new engine and they had to changed all the main code if they really wanted to make a clear change.
and as they are other developper they probably have their own way to see coding... indeed they are hard core coders maybe language is harder, but
they should help addon by making a real 100% nice SDK...

Wait and see...
I noticed that a lot of people are flaming FSP in other forums because of no news... but you are really alone trying to find nothing in a big new mess
Keep up the god work Dan. I know that your next FspX would be really awarded as usually

Why oh why was this brought up just as it had gone away again!
