  2. Finally I'm getting my scenery building operation back on its feet (for the fourth time in one year). I've going to completely stop promising anything, unless I'm a great deal into it already. Period. End of story. Anyways, I started working with the Lego Bricks stuff... and wow do I ever love that... a lot! it's great! So, I decided, "I should build an airport that I'm familiar with but someone might actually want." I wanted to combine the Lego Bricks with Orthophotos, so KBLI was ideal with some decent resolution orthos available from your friendly federal government on a public domain license. I have only one picture so far, and it really shows nothing. I want to make this airport not only look real but also feel real, because I've spent more time around airports recently and I realized how dead X-Plane airports feel sometimes. Happy 2013!

  3. I just got the Windows 64-bit plugin working for PE. Onto the Mac build next. That said, I think the decision has been made to use another network (and I think it's the right decision) for the fly-ins.

  4. I see....well i thought they had no business here at X-Pilot forums.... They should not go and put their noses outside X-Plane.org because its none of their business :/ Moderation of X-Plane.org should be inside the the website not outside as well.... doing that means simply nosiness, we have the right to voice out own opinion.

So they are looking for a reason to ban people? and if they don't allow it they should move one ignoring it, instead of banning. i have so much more complaining to say now but ill leave it in my stomach as this isn't a rant (hopefully) so its true, they only resolve problems by simply banning people. Improper moderation...

  5. The other day I was trying to compile the plugin for Linux in Ubuntu virtual machine in QT4 compiler. I had not success. If I find how to have the damm plugin I will release it.

  6. Wow definite pass for me then. I was wondering how they were modeling a plane that is not even out yet. I hope someday FSlabs would port their upcoming A320 from FSX to X-plane. That would probably be our best chance at a top level bus.

  7. Qutescoop is another one to see who's up: 3D rotating zoomable globe. Plots waypoints and flightplans too: http://qutescoop.sourceforge.net/

  8. I was about to purchase this aircraft until I saw this thread. With most custom aircraft functionality, it is relatively simple to map hardware to custom datarefs. In fact, I created my XGoFlight plugin to deal with the fact that Sandy's plugin only addresses default functionality. As a person who buys most high-quality aircraft, I can say I'm fully committed to finding ways to ensure hardware works with ALL and ANY aircraft (e.g. CRJ2, Challenger 300, Peter's Airbus A380, FlyJSim 727/DH8D, etc.). This is probably my only red line. With the radios, everything gets trickier. The native 747 implements custom datarefs for radio frequencies, and for those of us with hardware, it only messes up the experience without adding any value. From what I've gathered, the 747 uses this methodology so that users can tune frequencies to the hundredth decimal place rather than relying on the hundredth decimal place intervals that X-Plane uses. If the CRJ2 and other aircraft at that level of complexity can find a way to make the radio frequencies work with standard datarefs, I don't see why we can't do the same in all cases. Honestly, I wish we could all agree to work within the constraints of the X-Plane COM/NAV frequencies. It just makes things unnecessarily complicated without adding much value. I'll follow this issue for a little longer b/c the aircraft looks stunning. I'd love the opportunity to add it to my vast collection in the future.

  9. VATSIM is all lit up at the moment. Just spent a 1 hour flight around SFO bay under multiple controllers; and a ton of cross traffic whizzing above my head. Gotta love it

  10. Try a different VATSIM server (pulldown Menu). As im in Ozzie land, I use the OCEANA one, but it doesnt matter which one you connect to. Sometimes a particular server is either having issues, or is overloaded with too many connections/users.

  12. "I dislike newbies" Thats almost as bad as what ShadowIGM said.... Don't voice your personal opinion if you are trying to "teach" people it ruins the post/comment...

  14. I guess this is sort of an introduction. Long time FSX flyer, bought XPX on release as I saw what it was capable of and been keeping an eye on addon development since. Really starting to like the platform now and slowly flying more on XPX than FSX Anyways, here's Chris K's amazing Toronto City scenery with the downtown buildings, simply amazing, thank you Chris for your efforts!

  16. Sorry, but that's poor logic. Just because it's for one version, doesn't mean it isn't a good project.
