If you have shadows turned up you may see it. Unfortunately, until shadows are fully tuned it will likely continue.

Sales are better than any of us really anticipated. We knew it was going to be big, but obviously everyone's judgement was off a tad. Anyhow, we're rapidly getting through orders as quickly as we can! I see Whiskeyportal has stated disappointment here in his shipping status, but it would be no less different anywhere else! Jim Kallinen's post shows just that...and he ordered SAME DAY it was put up from Laminar! What about you, Mateus. Did you not end up ordering at all?

Cool! It's been crazy for everyone, Simon. I guess we should have expected no less though, huh? Not exactly a "bad" thing for any of us....even as users. Just means more people coming over and a big market to develop for!

There's been a big demand for this sim, guys. Initial order by Laminar to the replicator was NOT enough, and hence we're all working feverishly at every outlet to continue our stock flow. Laminar is just beginning to process orders placed on/around the 27th-28th, so unless you ordered before then from another outlet...don't feel bad! Most all people who have received shipments by us and Laminar are people who ordered within a few hours or first day...depending on selection. There's enough stock replicated by now and it's on its way out to everyone. As of Friday X-Aviation should have more stock than orders and be shipping as they come in for as long as they last. I've got another new batch coming in shortly after Friday to help fill another void if needed as well!

Here :

Pretty looking blue. 4-ply covered set. All come in a neat little package.

Photorealistic for the time being. It will be like any other pack we sell in the Enhanced series. We have discussed doing the upgrades to V10 and implement the technology, however, until Laminar finalizes and releases the spec we won't be doing so. Either way, these products still are my favorite to fly in X-Plane 10 over the generic stuff. As much as I love the new lighting effects and objects, atmospheric scattering with HDR looks absolutely stunning with these RealScenery packs!

We will never invalidate licenses just because things are outdated. Activations will continue to work as they always have, nor do we have plans to ever change this. Taking care of customers who pay their hard earned money for these products is part of our job!

We've began processing orders and they are sent out in order received. The replicator is shipping us multiple batches at a time, so I expect we should have our entire backlog or orders shipped out by Thursday or Friday, and then we'll be shipping orders received as they come in with stock on hand. Right now it's a matter of more orders than stock due to pre-order, but that's only for a few days.

Relax. This had nothing to do with sound quality and everything to do with noise reduction and comfort. As someone who has flown many hours with various headsets, I can still attest to this...and I own MANY different brands of pilot headsets.

You need to fully extract the files to a folder anywhere on your computer and THEN run the installer.

Looking great, Pete! Keep up the good work!

X-Plane is a 32-bit application. It cannot use the max ram he has.

Michelpia, The problem is that you are trying to run the installer without extracting it from the zip. The error you have posted shows you are running the installer from IN the zip file while it's still compressed. You'll need to fully extract the package to somewhere on your desktop and THEN run the installer.

It's a much better mobile browsing experience on the iOS devices, Simon. As someone who uses your iPhone a lot, I think you'll greatly appreciate it. The app will sort through your unread posts and place them in a tab, you can view all forums in a nice mobile, native format, and your PM's are still accessible. You can even post and do attachments. It's a MUCH better browsing experience than the one provided by Safari when coming here.

LOL

I don't blame you. Fred is phenomenal, really. We are very blessed to have him in the X-Plane community!

Hey, Simon, I've just got off the phone with Supnik after some testing of a new hotpatch we are putting out. Anyhow, as it turns out, these great lighting effects....DO NOT work with HDR on. Ben Supnik is aware of this issue, but does not know when he can get it solved.

It should look similar to this: Note the purple and green tones even with lights off. Displays are casting light.

Multiple people/groups are working on this helo type, actually, which is why I am commenting on it here. Fred is a very talented developer, and while I think competition is great, a party of three or more in such a barren field full of an array of choices seems silly. That said, without a doubt, I'd put my money down on Fred's being among the best in whatever he makes! My point to Valentin in post 16 where I said it's already being made is to let him know that regardless of whether Fred chooses to end up doing it or not, it will get done! He seems to be worried Fred may not take this on in the instance interest is not good enough. Either way, it will get done, so never fear!

See post 12. It's ALREADY being made.

You'll have no issues at all with your license for a dual install. As Javier has stated, you'll need to install two times to ensure ALL of the files make it into the right place for each version. Also be sure to select X-Plane 9 or X-Plane 10 when it asks you which version of X-Plane! Very important! Please don't hesitate to get back to us if you have any issues. We're here to help!

Simon, If you're installer didn't ask you which version then: A) You installed version 1.2 Or B ) You downloaded prior to the 1.3 release. I think your best bet is to go download the update again and run the installer. The latest version will definitely ask you for version 9 or 10! And yes...it's "real" lights inside now.

Hmmmm...it could be my phone, but that lighting looks like V9 version, Simon. When you selected the aircraft in X-Plane did the icon show it as version 10? Great video!

This helo is already in development. More information and previews will be announced as time progresses. Until then, ciao!
