Then it should have been planned and implemented differently! On principle only, a plugin that adds functionality to a specific aircraft, should not be loaded when that aircraft are not loaded. That is why Laminar Research introduced the concept of aircraft-specific plugins.
At the very least, a global plugin should not block any resources when it doesn't need them.

This is an informative topic and not a debate, Marc. Having known the complexities of where Gizmo is headed, the fact that it is NOT to be utilized just for aircraft (yep, not aircraft-specific!), etc is precisely why it's been done the way it has. Making accusations with regards to a subject you know little info about is not helping any of us.

And how about a linux version? Is "watching bad TV" still higher on the list?

I don't watch TV. Ben R doesn't either. There are many better things to be doing with our time, evidently and rightly so that you have no clue!

As for Linux? It hasn't been released simply for the fact that Linux is not a viable platform. We've tried it in the past and the ROI is simply not there. Perhaps in time it will change, but that time is not "now."

-Plug-in that allows a different way of controlling buttons. The Click and Drag across the screen is the most annoying thing about it (especially if you are poor and can't afford TRACKIR and then you enter 3D mode and then your screen jerks after releasing the drag lol)

But i don't expect to see these soon really. I can do without most of this. The buttons plug-in needs to come ASAP but i don't think Javier has any desire to change it now.

Can't be done due to the animations/manip types being harcoded into the obj's, so a plug-in is not really an option here. That said, no, we don't have plans to alter this.
