No problem!

Install it and activate it as normal.

Windows Defender/Anti Virus apps, not the firewall itself.

No. The purchase is locked to your activated machine and account, and the activation server will recognize any attempts to "sell" this to someone very quickly, resulting in terminated/suspended accounts. Considering trying again when you get the time, or re-installing when you do some computer upgrades down the line.

Absolutely not.

Uh, this project is not in limbo. It is neither forgotten, nor ignored. I'm not even sure how you surmised that out of Jan's response. He literally emphasized the words "are planning", and only said that right now someone important is sidetracked temporarily. We're not talking years here. This whole unfinished product thing is really starting to get blown out of proportion. We're being real with you guys, so be real in your assessments and not cause unnecessary drama out of it, please.

None of what you have just said is factual. There has been as consistent of sales volume daily now as there was pre-zibo. X-Plane sales do not work in a manner like you're suggesting. No one on the team has moved to any other projects (people have asked if IXEG will develop something else, the answer has always been "not till the Classic is finished"). This is a highly speculative statement from you with zero substance. This would lose money and it shows your lack of understanding for this market. You've got it very wrong, but we appreciate your thoughts.

The saddest part about a comment like this is that it's shortsighted in the overall picture. I'm personally confident you would find this particular portion negligible to your whole experience on the aircraft, and once loaded up and flying, after seeing and feeling the immersion you get, this hesitation would be quickly realized it was all for not. There's a reason people are saying it's the best. Of course, if you want to neglect why people say that even still, then I have to respectfully accept your position. I just know you're missing out on an awesome experience as a whole, and for that, I'm sad you're letting it get in the way of some amazing enjoyment! All the Best!

Most flights with an airliner in controlled airspace in the real world are not going to use VNAV for descent. The controllers will typically tell you to do things rather than the computer automatically follow. Jan will even tell you as a real world captain that VNAV in his flights isn't something they typically do. More like black magic than a for certain button. You're really missing out on something special if you decide not to purchase, but everyone has their "needs". I think the responses in this topic alone show you how much people love it.

It would not be cosmetic only. That is not how this team operates. We are not about to extort money out of people. Everyone has paid enough, and we appreciate their business. We agree, and that's why work still continues on it.

Has it occurred to you that not everyone lives by a big city, and some are not even close enough for a reasonable drive? Ben already used that feature on the website. It directed him to an entirely different country as the closest option.

You have greatly misinterpreted again. X-Pilot is a community website. Everything on here is free, the front page content included. It's not a main priority, but we have allowed various community members over the years to have access and post on that page. Unfortunately it's not an exciting task, and while people initially say yes, follow through is typically dismal. This is really dramatic. It's very evident you have little clue what you're talking about when it comes to the whole community and our customers vs your own view. Please stop.

If it were a paid upgrade it would be no faster. Your speculation is very off.

Uh, no I did not. The specific detail was that it will be a few weeks. This is 100% correct!

I'm not sure what any of what you just said means, especially the part about "'specific details'?$". I can only assume that you know nothing of the inner workings or reasonings, so any assumptions you have are assuredly way off. Goran is giving you guys optimism and false hope without lying that it will be a few weeks. We may as well kill that now and make expectations reasonable rather than a stampede a week from now asking why it isn't out when Goran made it seem like it would/could be. Nothing will change that outcome. The whole "first impressions" talk is nonsense when it comes to this update.

A few weeks, since Goran doesn't want to just come out with that specific detail.

Please post your log.txt file.

Looking at Plane Maker values tells you nothing. We use custom programming and source code that you cannot see at all.

Best video I've ever seen. A good use of time, I'd say. How dare you clip clouds and not make perfection at all times, John. I hate your product but I'm going to continue to use it. Tsk Tsk Tsk.

Please use the forum search function. It will do wonders for you.

Not really. All you've shown is some topic full of speculation about a potential SDK. The aircraft is using standard X-Plane information. Default works with it, SkyMaxx Pro works with it. xEnviro is choosing their own path. I'm sure they have their reasons, but such is life for the moment.

Typically happens if you have special characters in your password (%,#,*, etc) or a firewall.

Most of those textures are going to load to your video card. The 16GB RAM could be upgraded to 32 and help you out quite a bit too. RAM is never a bad thing. I'd be willing to bet a great deal of your "slow" down was due to the uncompressed setting. There's really no sense in flying your sim that way. It's a waste of resource for little return.

Adding to this, you should be sure texture compression is on in the X-Plane settings!

Only Custer!
