X-Pilot Posted August 18, 2011 Report Posted August 18, 2011 Captains,Welcome back to X-Pilot.com! As noted on the new homepage, we have a completely new design, including the branding of X-Pilot itself. This is to put us more in line for the future and where we are headed.The downtime over the last 24 hours was part of a massive transition. Some of it is viewable now with the new forum design, but also new backend infrastructure was put in place to announce some new features to X-Pilot in the coming months. Needless to say, we anticipate for X-Pilot to become a complimented growth model with the new X-Plane 10 platform coming out. A lot of our new community features will work directly in X-Plane as time goes on, and when the time is right we'll announce such additions.With the new design here we introduce a variety of new features. They include:- A more robust forum system- A new chat room to have engaging conversations- New social media technology to integrate X-Pilot and X-Plane into our daily conversations with friends- News section for not only product releases, but also news around the community. You'll definitely want to keep on eye on this section!As always, thanks for being a part of X-Pilot. Without you, there is no 'us.' We are the community, and we're proud of it!Enjoy! 1 Quote

Simmo W Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 You got first reply Kaph!Best of luck with the new site Cameron, hopefully lots of storage for freeware!The forum comes up well on the iPhone, nice and concise. Is it the same setup as the flightsimulator network? It looks exactly the same on the phone. Simon Quote
Kaphias Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Yes Simon, same configuration as FSN. Quote
MdMax Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Great news and nice forum system ! But now my favorite button is the "Toggle editing mode". For me this wysiwyg editor is a nightmare. Quote
woweezowee Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Looking good. I'm only a bit exhausted of getting used to new layouts. Not because of xplane or anything the like, but because at our company we also did a major relaunch of one of the platforms just this week . From database ground up. We were lucky, all went well but for some of the usuals bugs. I wish you the same luck that it's stable here on the all new x-pilot, and for it to be a success Quote
wotaskd Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) The new layout looks amazing, congratulations!Cheers Edited August 19, 2011 by wotaskd Quote
hobofat Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 Congratulations on the transition, I imagine a lot of work goes into such a thing. I just logged into Aerosoft forum and noticed they've changed their forum layout to something quite similar, same platform perhaps? Quote
MdMax Posted August 19, 2011 Report Posted August 19, 2011 (edited) same platform perhaps?Yes, IP.Board is very popular: Aerosoft, AVSIM, FSZone, Flight Simulator Network, X-Plane.de, Orbx, Flight Sim Labs, AirSimmer... Edited August 19, 2011 by MdMax Quote
