Hahah, I CANNOT WAIT FOR THIS RELEASE :P By the way Dan are you still after a "graphist"?

[DanSteph]

Sure. I had a good candidate but he had an accident... no luck.

Hi,
I am new to this but do you think that when fsp for fsx is released it will be free? Any update on the ammount of time till release,
Thanks

[DanSteph]

It will be free the day me and my familly can live without eating

About release date it's "hidden" in the first post: 100% sur before christmas, my secret hope is beetween 1-2 month. (but again don't quote me on this, it's a secret )

Appart doc, gfx and voicepack (todo) things goes well, still one or two hard obstacles to pass but else it's "simple", just a matter of time
and work. It's almost completely playable yet.

Interesting to note, with all the talk about delivery dates, that Dan's competition hasn't delivered anything for FSX yet. So maybe the rate of
progress isn't so bad?

I really never considered that...

It does seem like any "complex" mod for FsX has had really steep dev times

I have also a freeze point... there is a time where all suggestions in "request forum" on beta site are simply rejected...
But freeze point is not a bolean, for yet I reject almost all "new features" but accept those that concern one existing feature and are not
time consuming or are mandatory.



But as said jay and highlander it's more complicated in reality, one tester may suggest a new feature that require *two* line of code and add a lot to
the program, in this case it's accepted of course.

It's all about "coding time/coolness" factor.

Where could this page be found ?

Any Hope of making FSPX workable with FS2004?

[Airbus_A380]

Hey Dan,

I just brought your FSPassengers 2004 on CD, and was wondering if there will be an update for the FS2004 version, with all these goodies in it?

Also, congrats on the new items you have added in FSPassengers. Looks great.

And yes Jambone, where could we find those URL into FSPassengers Heaven? :D

Matt

[ReedME]

Well then, I sent you an app a while back, am still awaiting a reply :P Also Airbus_A380 I believe there is an Update coming, although I don't think
everything from FSPX will be compatible with FS2004, from what I've Seen/Heard Anyway. Dan, Just email me if you need a graphist.

Finally, I have something to calm me down. Squawkbox 4 is released and I am back flying online on VATSIM almost every night(in addition to my real live flying, couple of times per month). For those who would have been living on a different planet in the last 5 years, VATSIM is the online communication software that links you to hundreds of air traffic controller simulating real life with you(clearance, vectors, approaches, etc....). Add this with FSPassengers and you can't get more close to reality than this. Trust me, I did it for a couple of years, until FSX came in and both Addons became incompatible. From then flying with just FSX turned out to be pretty boring. So I hope to see you up there on VATSIM until fspassengers kicks in, if ever...... By the way, you should have seen the reaction to all pilots lined beside the chicago runway when I made that emergency landing on the belly and they saw me sliding on the belly instead of having my flight terminated like instandard FS9!!!!! It was a hell of a good publicity for FS Passengers!!!!!

Hang on when did you do a belly landing in VATSIM, I had to do one this morning in chicago. Mind you the people waiting were not very happy.
