This is my first post to this forum.......

I flew in the Air Force and now find enjoyment between flights with FSX. I am really excited about the release of FSPX.

Gnome, what aircraft did you fly if you don't mind me asking?

C++ and ASM, no simconnect, no fsuipc.

C# would never be able to do such things, simconnect with all respect due is a nightmare.

Does this mean that if we have an ACARS software running FSUIPC, and FSPX running we will have a conflict?
Thanks

No problems in this configuration for me. Currently running ACARS, FSUIPC, and FsPX with no issues. I am running FSX with
Acceleration and Windows XP. Also, I have heard no complaints from others.

Thanks Jeff,
What does the acceleration pack do?

[forzaksc1894]

1. 3 new airplanes: F-18 Hornet, North American and Agusta Westerland
2. Scenery for Berlin/Tempelhof and Istanbul
3. a lot of new missions

Just wanted to add that Radar Contact is working fine as well with FsPX. The only issue I have found which I do not believe can be
resolved is that I don't think RC recognizes squawk 7700 for emergencies, and complains if you change your transponder in such a case,
but yet FsPX requires you to change this or recieve a penalty (if you have Xpnder penalty selected) I then ignore RC and follow through
with FsPX. If I am wrong about this and someone knows something differently please correct me.

[rojasjorge98]

Thanks forzaksc1894.
Any new good news Dan?

[DanSteph]

Yes the whole pack will be reduced by 10 megabyte...

I'll remove the German help doc and text from FsPX !

Sorry for german peoples but despit my call there is only one guy translating
help text in german and I can't ask him also the doc and menu. (thank Heiko anyway)
So no german version.

There will be only english and french (my wife's doing all the translation as I write all in english)

Notice the excellent work that have done especially JeffMcBride to correct the english
help. It' still miss the doc but the 57 help files are perfect I think.

Cheers

Dan

Hi Dan,
I'd be volunteering and more than happy to translate from English into German if you would like.

Cheers

Daniel

Hi Dan / Others,

I have finally removed FSIX from my PC, formatted and have installed FSX, bought the two current PMDG addons and am looking forward to purchasing
FSpassengersX.

I have few problems with the amount of development time and even less with the purchase price, I don't even want a discount for owning the FSIX version.

The only concern is that the release of FSPX is going to shortly be followed by an anouncment of the new version of flight sim and Dan will end up
going through all this again and or not bothering; to be honest i'm hoping that the next version of Flight SIm will be a MASSIVE improvement,
espeically in the ATC area and i hope that Dan will continue to support the Flight Sim releases.

Thanks
Ian

There is still a lot of peoples sticking to Fs9, Fs11 will not be ready anytime soon (in reality, not in announcment )
and I doubt they will rewrite or renew it enterely (if they do that it would be ready in 2013), So It will only be a "super FsX" imho
a second "acceleration pack" called Fs11 The machine to display a "massive improvment" doesn't exist yet

From what I see the community is really moving massively to FsX since some month at best.

Good stuff. I also highly doubt that FS11 will be released any time soon. Microsoft put in far too much effort with FSX so they need a break.

BTW Dan, you have a PM & E-mail

Hi,

I´m from Germany and I could help him to translate the menu phrases of FSP

[Capt. Wotan]

Yeah I didn't mean graphically, personally i don't think there is anything wrong with the graphics, unfortunately that's all Microsoft seem to
concentrate on.

The game itself could do with an overhaul, less but more detailed planes, for example currently flying the Russian version of Black Shark, now that's
a simulator.
Out-of-the-box the environments are completely sterile (somewhat improved in FSX), the ATC is terrible, entirely the same as IX (except the colour)
and the missions are disjointed and frankly boring (thankfully that's were your product comes in!!)

I'm looking forward to purchasing your product and supporting future releases from you.

If FS11 was anything like the change from FS9 to FSX then you would need to build a pretty spectacuar computer.....
