    Yes, it does happen on occasion that someone will buy the wrong version but I believe most flight simulation users are smarter than you think (most do know how to read) and I don't believe it happens nearly as often as you think.

    Think? I know. I deal with customers daily. It's my job. :)
     

    It's not a statement about one's intelligence. It's about the common occurrence of NOT reading.

    I do not believe your data is fully relevant either as you only sell a few aircraft so your data is very incomplete, it does not cover aircraft available from all payware sites. 

    50 products is more than a few. My data is a lot more relevant and true than anything you'll get your hands on. That's about all I can say to that.

    I'm sorry you're displeased, but I've been doing this (selling products) for 16 years. I don't care to be right, I'm just stating the facts as they are.

    I hope you find products that make you happy, and while I find your future purchasing decisions a bit odd, that's your choice and I respect it.

    Happy flying! :)

    I believe you but I did a survey a couple months ago (from a popular flight sim website) asking me which simulators I use most and after I finished the survey it showed me the results which actually showed many more X-Plane users are using still using X-Plane 11 version 11.55 over X-Plane 12.  Another strange result that surpised me is that some X-Plane users are still using an outdated version of X-Plane 11 (version 11.30 I believe but I could be wrong) for some reason.

    A website poll is not really relevant. The pool size is not indicative of add-on purchasers use behavior. My data is concrete and definitive of what actual buyers are doing.

    All I'm asking is that they make it available for sale, I don't think that's asking too much and it will in no way hurt development of current products.

    We aren't going to do this. People don't read fine print about "as-is" clauses, and many will begin purchasing the wrong one even if the supported version is in the title. I realize you think this would be simple, but on my end it's headache central. We're just not going there. I deal with customers all day long to know better than that. :)

    I know that you are not to blame. I was hoping that you devs might have some information from Laminar that would not yet have transpired to the unwashed public.

    To be frank, it's not developers' job to announce things publicly that Laminar has not. Please don't assume we'll do such a thing.

    At this time we know about as much as you do on that front.

    That being said, the fact is that it should just work as-is and the IXEG-team and/or x-aviation team refuse to work it out because it's only 3 of us who had the issue (4 if we count the issue here as well), even though we offered to run stuff with debugging or extra logging so they can find the culprit. They should have a better idea where to look and we can only offer some cooperation. 

    The issue in this thread is not related to the one you have. It's a bug in the DC-3 code where if the DC-3 is loaded prior to activation, a crash can occur because of initialization issues. It is known and will be fixed in an update. In the meantime, as has been indicated elsewhere and by others, the interim solution is as simple as loading another aircraft, then the DC-3 for the first time around.

    Are there any news regarding the WX radar topic?

    Got caught in a thunderstorm cell in a pitch black night ... no fun. WXR would have helped.

    Nope. I'm pretty sure the whole X-Plane world will know when Laminar finally gets this accessible data in. Look for news from them, not us.

    When I replace this file with the "xa_validate.xpl" from the "mac_x64" directory, I am able to load and interact with the plane.

    You're taking away an element of the aircraft that enables all the systems to run. Just because you remove it and it loads does not mean you've solved the issue at all. Of course a Mac plugin is not going to run on Windows!

    On 4/12/2024 at 12:44 PM, clecorouge said:

    Furthermore, the plugin relies on outdated open-source libraries, such as Libcurl.dll and Zlib1.dll, which is concerning given that we are now in 2024.

    I have no idea what you're talking about when you say "outdated". They are not.

    Unfortunately, it's quite clear you're throwing darts anywhere you can without a target even being present. Lots of talk that you don't have knowledge about, hence these strange accusations you've made throughout this thread about old items, and plugins not being 64 bit.

    The facts remain. There's three of you encountering this. That's a pool size so small I cannot help you and you're better off seeking a common denominator amongst one another. It's the last time I'll say such, and I'm going to close this thread. Please discuss amongst yourselves in private messages. Should things change or we have an "aha!" moment, I will unlock and update this thread.

    comes with a universal binary that has arm64 support but I don't know if it can be made to work with the DC-3 version that I have.

    No, it cannot.

    For the error in your log with the CTD, you should now be able to get around that by opening a default aircraft first, then the DC-3. You couldn't do that before because you were not running under Rosetta.

    It's now 18 months since the initial release of XP12 - can you say least say if the turbine engine modelling is now complete ?

    It is not complete. Work continues in the same direction as Goran previously updated. It's not exciting or visual, so that's about the only update to speak about at this time.
