HansRoaming Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Not sure if this is the right forum but here goes. Being a parent I'm pretty time poor and one of the things I find that rally helps me pick up new jets in FSX is to have a clickable pit as it completely removes the need to try and remember a keyboard mapping to articulate functionality. Whilst I have a HOTAS I would love to be able to have clickabe pits in FC3 so much so that like DCS WWII would put money towards it on Kickstarter. Could be a kickstarter for clickable pits plus maybe a couple of other aircraft into the bunch for balance in FC4? Just wondered if anyone else felt the same?
Rongor Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 I don't think this is how kickstarter works. Waving with money doesn't spawn developers. You will have to hope that some guys are willing to start a project like this. Then these guys may go the kickstarter path. Or they won't.
HansRoaming Posted March 24, 2014 Author Posted March 24, 2014 Am not sure what are ED's constraints: Exhausted resource pool for developers for DCS / FC Cash constraints Reached point of diminishing returns in size of development team Given that a kickstarter was done for DCS WW2 thought it worth asking if the same could be done for a FC4 and what people thought.
cichlidfan Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Given that a kickstarter was done for DCS WW2 thought it worth asking if the same could be done for a FC4 and what people thought. I suspect the response to a kickstarter involving ED, at this point in time, would be something less than stellar, largely due to the DCS WWII kickstarter.

HansRoaming Posted March 24, 2014 Author Posted March 24, 2014 I wasn't aware of any issues with the DCS WWII Kickstarter, as a contributor get updates and things seem to be progressing. Not saying that there are no issues, just that am ignorant of any.
Pepec9124 Posted March 26, 2014 Posted March 26, 2014 (edited) FC4 ? It is no longer working this way. We get fully animated 6DOF (disabled due to being FC) after that it gets AFM and maybe in few years it ends as clickable DCS aircraft. Edited March 26, 2014 by Pepec9124
