ME had nothing to do with XP. ME was last DOS based Windows, XP was next Windows in NT line. Vista -> 7 situation is completely different.

DCS: Hip! ;)

No news about 3rd party tools for new flyables :( DCS looks stunning though. One of the best looking sims ever.

Has anyone tried HTR - alternative helicopter flight dynamics for FSX? http://www.hovercontrol.com/cgi-bin/ib3/ikonboard.cgi?;act=ST;f=53;t=17769;st=0 I've been using it for a while and it's really something good. I'd say it's almost as good as XPlane of Black Shark (I'm not a real life pilot though).

Dead? I would bet that FS9 and FSX together has more active users thal all other flight sims together.

It's Windows exclusive.

It has some problems, but still there is no better civilian flight sim. XPlane 10 may change it though.

LOL, good stuff :)

A whole planet. Seriously, Korea/Balkans/Afghanistan/Cold War scenario.

Like in Tom Clancy's HAWX? (just kidding)

There is one thing I like in Ace Combat series. A story. And it's a better game than Hawx :)

If you'd like to buy all additional content for RailWorks (a train simulator) it would cost over $600. You don't have to own everything. It's additional revenue for developer.

Microsoft is working on new flight simulator.

You should try some advanced additional planes then. Many of them blows all combat sims (DCS and Falcon excluded) out of the water.

I'd love to start this beauty by myself already! I have a question - could someone at ED show us this cockpit in shaded wireframe mode in 3dsMAX? There is so much detail, that I'd love to see how it's done :) How many polygons, animated objects, textures this cockpit have? I'm just curious :)

You are talking about Cascade Games Foundry, nobody knows what are they doing. From their press release: Doesn't look like hardcore flight simulation for me. Microsoft new team is working on something, and it is a flight simulation. They have a job offer for those who don't believe ;): http://www.microsoft-careers.com/job/Seattle-Software-Development-Engineer-in-Test-MGS-Flight-Sim-LIVE-Job-WA-98101/815698/

If you'd want to see AGM-65 display on MFD it's impossible to do in FSX.

Cool, are other planes visible on radar? Is it possible to refuel in multiplayer? I have to try flying online in Superbug someday. But first I have to figure how to start this thing from cold and dark, hehe.

I use Vista Premium 64bit, and have no problems with Superbug and AICarriers... Shamandgg - have you been playing online?

Is it possible to start another Falcon on Skhval, and play with yourself in multiplayer? LOL

It's too late ;) Your movie is considered as announced :D

IP banning is not a solution either. I have dynamic IP, and if you'll block my provider you'll block half of Poland too :) I'm not a vandal though, if I fly online I fly with friends on password protected servers.

I'm already in love with current iteration :)I hope FSX version will sell well, and waiting for F-18E Pro. Congratulations on release!

Why? Maybe I would be able to land real aircraft, but with just one try I hope I won't have the opportunity :) I prefer not to fly but to be alive :D

I had a chance to fly in real military simulator of turboprop trainer. I had many hours logged in various PC simulators, and it took me eight tries to take off make a circle around and land safely. Seven times I crashed. After that I believe I could be able to fly real plane but without proper training with instructor take off and landing would certainly end with crash.
