  1. Actually, the settings listed in the video made the sim weirdly blurry for me haha. But I browsed through the videos, and some were actually helpful. Thanks!
  2. Jan is pulling on the yoke from the FO's seat. Classic jokester.
  3. Poor little robobuddy. Such a push over
  4. True! I actually flew few days ago on Swiss' fokker 100(operated by helvetic) to Zurich, coincidentally to attend training in Swiss Aviation. Those planes definitely have some charm!
  5. I think I have opened can of worms, let's focus on the topic at hand
  6. Fills the world with planes around you. X-Plane built in traffic is rather poor.
  7. Hey, in 20 years people will have same sentiments for the 320neo What's so bad about the neo though?
  8. Apparently almost 1000 classics (almost 500 -300 versions) are still in active service. That's quite alive indeed! Great shots
  9. According to the posts from the team members - yes. Apparently it's in the final testing before the 1.0 release, so we still have to wait a bit.
  10. Holy smokes... That project went far beyond my expectations. I hope there is a link where we could possibly donate? Great job regardless, the cockpit looks absolutely gorgeous!

    Aerobask Releases Epic Victory!

    Aerobask, a developer known for their Epic E1000 and Viperjet LXR, have released their long-awaited single engine, super light jet; the Epic Victory. But they did not stop there. When you purchase their new release, you get the LISA Akoya, a nimble, single engine amphibious plane, free of charge. And if you thought that was a bargain, Aerobask is not done there. Along with the two aircraft, you can also download a free Manuae Airport scenery, made available at X-Plane.org, to really enhance your sea plane experience. Feature list: Aerobask Quality 3D Model High quality 3D model throughout Flight model defined according to the specifications of public data. Fun to fly. Ultra-High Resolution textures. 4K, Ambient Occlusion, Specular, Normal mapping and night lightning. Fully functional and animated Virtual 3D cockpit. Panoramic windshield with reflections, rain and icing effects. Ground Power Unit First ever modeled Skyview for X-Plane 3 EFIS Skyview Extensive custom logic to simulate the real Skyview Custom MAPs & FMS Flight Plans Management Transponder AutoPilot and radio All EFIS can be displayed in Pop-up view Other Systems EIS MVP50, 2 Garmin GNC255, 1 STEC5000 Autopilot, ADL110B weather radar, TCAS and vocal alerts.

  12. That's becuase you are flying for a wrong airline!
  13. Jan's thread answers this question, and probably more.
  14. Yes, they are. The connector is meant to help with that. But that specific issue isn't exclusive to Skymaxx. The default coulds do EXACTLY the same thing. Once new weather situation is injected by the default engine or the plugin like NOAA, clouds are rebaked and everything pops, regardless if you use SkyMaxx or not. Ergo, I see no reason to blame the addon. As for visuals, it's matter of taste, but I have hard time believing someone actually prefers default clouds models. Though I agree on the overcast, I wish it would be much more "puffy".
  15. That's an oxymoron
  16. The thing is, people try to argue semantics using their own, subjective dictionaries. It's silly. It's a colloquial term, created by us, the simming community, to distinguish between very complex and those less complex addons. More or less, the general consensus can be made between the simmers of what is and what isn't a "study sim", but there will be obviously some differences here and there. What I find crazy though, is that looking at some posts in this thread, NOTHING is a study sim, and nothing EVER will be. If you are looking for 1:1 simulation, then go ahead and pay $550/hr for a Boeing simulator and then you will have an actual experience. PMGD is regarded as study sim by the majoriy of the community, and yet it's missing quite a lot of features of the real thing. Maybe some people should just accept it's a game, and that "study sim" means something different in PC simulation games than they think it means. So tl;dr (as some people seem to get lost in posts): "Study sim" is a term colloquially used by specific community, which isn't to be taken literally. It has its own meaning given by that community. While everyone has right to their own opinion, arguing with semantics widely spread in the community is rather silly. Cheers.
  17. I would assume IXEG will be busy for much, muuuch longer with supporting and developing their 737 even further.
  18. That's amazing! I actually forgot you are still planning to release the 3D cockpit, this plane is already really fun, even with only 2D. I'm excited, kudos!
  19. I promised myself I will stay out of it, but oh god. IXEG isn't builiding an actual, real aircaft. They are creating an addon to a game. Lack of some feature on release that you would normally never even use (or wasn't even aware of it's existence) doesn't mean something is "unfinished", especially if the features that will be present from the start already put that, again, addon to a game in the top category in terms of complexity. A lot of unnecessary jabs.
  20. Flying Twin Otter on skis around, is extremely fun in this scenery. Voted and thanks!
  21. If you go through your flight plan in MCDM, are you sure you deleted any potential "F-pln discontinuity" from the waypoint list?
