X-plane.org being usefull for a change

[Flying_pig]

So I was deleting stuff in my spam folder today and found an email from the .org talking about a contest where the top prize was being able to choose a new feature to be added to X-plane in a future patch

More details here http://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?showtopic=68794

how about an object creator and animator bundled with x-plane? idk... like something called "object maker" that would bring together the best of AC3D and Blender and incorporate it into a user-friendly editing system devoted strictly to x-plane.

Considering that's an app and not a feature is say that's not what they had in mind for this kind of prize.

It'd also be a MASSIVE waste of time to learn. And limiting, in the same way that PlaneMakers mesh tools always were.

 

The much smarter move for all parties is to delegate the task to mature tools, like we already do.
