Steel Jaw Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 And has been in this state for about 3 years, since the moment they shut down ACES. Stupid, stupid people investing in the dead platform for so long... there are so many better simulators with 3rd party addon support, powerful SDK's and big user base. :P Agreed. But try telling to PMDG or LDS. When you put all your eggs in the FSuX basket you need a rich fantasy life to sleep at night.

Phantom88 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 I do :) :thumbup: You and the A2A Team do incredible things within FSX and really the only reason it's on my hard drive. Cheers and Thx Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
some1 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Mower, my previous post was sarcastic. :) As of now, there are no better sims for addon developer than FSX, so it's no surprise that developers like PMDG stick to that. XP10 is still in development, what we got here is a beta demo, which from what I've read is not better than FSX in terms of bugs and performance. XP9 is much less popular than MSFS, so it's very hard to justify spending months/years of work to make complex addons for that. And in many ways it's comparable with older FS9, not FSX. DCS, RoF, Il2 have closed architecure, you can't make addon planes for them. Maybe it would be possible to do some contractual work, but that would mean playing by somebody's else rules and doing only what you are told or allowed to do. One thing is certain, with so many simulators on the horizon, the future will be interesing :) P.S.

sobek Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 DCS [...] you can't make addon planes for them. Well, it seems you're no longer correct on that. Good, fast, cheap. Choose any two.

some1 Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) Well, it seems you're no longer correct on that. Oh, so I can make a custom airplane from scratch, complete with FM, custom avionics and systems written in C++ or other equally powerful programming language, and sell it on my own? If so, count me in, where's the link to SDK? :P Edited November 26, 2011 by some1 Hardware: VPForce Rhino, FSSB R3 Ultra, Virpil T-50CM, Hotas Warthog, Winwing F15EX, Slaw Rudder, GVL224 Trio Throttle, Thrustmaster MFDs, Saitek Trim wheel, Trackir 5, Quest Pro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J3ff Posted December 7, 2011 Share Posted December 7, 2011 I just downloaded the installer from the website for the demo of X10 and my virus scanner went crazy and detected the installer was a virus and deleted the install.

Yskonyn Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 ^ That's actually a very nice looking cockpit. I always found the in-cockpit experience of X-plane lacking in relation to MSFS, but I am talking about version 7 or 8. Do all airplanes have these high quality 3D cockpits now or is this a payware expansion? The best thing about X-plane has always been its performance. Super high framerates made it a perfect tool to practise IFR procedures with. It has helped my during flightschool a lot of times. If X-plane 10 is indeed such a big leap forward I will instantly buy.
