I just can't get enough of this...

Hi all, So a quick report here, since I am unable to post at the org. As we have said, we are targeting a 2015 release still. We know full well we have to stop developing at some point and just put this thing out; however, we also feel there is a minimum functionality with regards to the operational model and FMS that we must attain. It will not be 100%, but neither can it be 70%. We are pushing for operational features that we have not seen in any product in x-plane...so it is taking a goodly amount of time to work through these issues for the first time. The good news? I can tell you that I have quit every other revenue producing endeavor I was working on (and there were some really good ones) to devote all my time to the 737 here until release. I code on the FMS each day, moving forward and am very hopeful we'll have a solid functioning airplane by the end of the year for you. The team have discussed that we would happily delay developing "fun eye candy" until after initial release if it comes to that......most important is that users get to operate the aircraft accurately, and we can always add in 'toys' later. We have all been disappointed with simulations that have more eye candy that substance. So while we still won't guarantee a release date, we are putting more hours into it now as we make a run to the finish line. -tkyler

Captains, Today I can officially announce SkyMaxx Pro Version 3 is now on final approach to X-Aviation. The release will happen this coming Friday, October 23rd at Midnight Eastern Standard Time US (start of day, New York time for those that don't know). The product page has been made available here. If you are taking advantage of the 50% discount as a version 1 or version 2 customer, you will be receiving an e-mail with a special discount code to use during checkout. This discount will ONLY work once, and it will ONLY work for you. Do not try to share or attempt to use on an account that has not purchased SkyMaxx Pro v1 or v2. If you attempt this, the code will be locked out and you will not be able to take advantage of the discount if such is the case! When the discount code is entered the system will immediately perform a check to ensure you are a valid purchaser of previous versions. Happy flights, and enjoy SkyMaxx Pro Version 3 when it's released on Friday morning!

What John said. I will add however that it's probably a good idea to hit the "reset" button in the Skymaxx Pro 3 configuration screen after installing over an existing SMP2. Your SMP2 settings may be interpreted differently in SMP3, or result in different performance characteristics.

I'm glad to report the issue does not occur in V3!

Patience - Cameron was up all night making sure things went smoothly with the launch. He's getting some much-needed sleep before returning to the support queue.
