Hello, all, With the above images now released, let this be the formal announcement that the CRJ has been in development all this time since the day we announced postponement. We hope that you'll find this a pleasant surprise. RC-1 signifies a practically complete product in total testing phase. Get ready! It's coming soon! With all the above said, I have unlocked this forum and you may reply away!

No, it won't.

Purchasing today gets you this update for free in case you weren't aware.

We already have this No, they don't. We already have this.

Nice recovery... A little late on your delete there, Jack.

Hopefully you understood it better like everyone else....surely you did. I hope for the sake of smartness you did.

Dude...you're kidding right? I asked you that after it's already been MENTIONED earlier in the thread that he's a part of Laminar...my question was basically "Are you even reading all the posts that are up here in response to your topic in detail?" If you were, you'd realize he was with Laminar. It has nothing to do with knowing ANYONE's user ID.

The focus right now internally is to get the core of the product done, compile it together, and share it with the world. I'm sure you'll see some heavy marketing in due time. Just today I read an article with an interview from Austin about X-Plane 10. Right now, it's all about updating the current X-Plane user base as to what's going on. Not sure about TV ads...not sure Austin cares for them, and frankly, I wouldn't either. That said, I have seen X-Plane in PLENTY of magazines ad wise, and I have also seen it covered on TV with an interview from Austin...G4 was the channel I believe, actually. I didn't put you in the idiot bandwagon, but I put you in the misinformed one. However, you asked what anyone would have to say...my response is simple. It's Microsoft. And, lastly...you had talk about the iPad/iPhone/Android development. Believe it or not, this has probably been the BEST move yet by Laminar. The amount of people who came flocking for the desktop version after seeing these apps is HUGE.

You do realize he works for Laminar...don't you?

+1. Kind of important considering he's on the development team for Laminar. Given all you have said, I'm going to give myself the "okay" to say you have no idea as to what really is going on at Laminar. At the same time, I don't fault you entirely for it. I suppose as someone who is heavy on the development side and "in bed" with more of the Laminar people, I would be more educated in the matter. AND, with that said...I'm not sure Austin cares that everyone know his financial situation when it comes to the sim... Marketing was the task of previous firms who published. The contract was always for them to do it. Whether they did the job, I have no idea, but I do know that the sim ended up in many, many more stores than it ever used to. Wal Mart being one, but from what I gather that's probably the last time that will ever happen again. I don't want to be the one that lets out "all the bits," but the Laminar team is now very large from what it ever used to be. It's not the mom and pop development firm anymore, and Austin isn't the only one at the core. There's now numerous programmers, numerous tasks, and a plethora of 3D designers, texture artists, etc. If you only knew the costs involved to produce what is soon to be "X-Plane 10" then I'm sure you'd change your tune a bit. Over and onward...

Much agreed. What makes this aircraft really fun outside of some of the more unique programmed systems is the need to be around and actually DO something while you fly. Yes, it has autopilot, but you need to watch those waypoints along the way! The RMI becomes your friend.

It's not in the 340A. It's not in this aircraft. You'll have two things to help you out here: 1. A pretty manual to teach you about the autopilot and some of it's unique functions. 3. A pretty manual to teach you how to fly like the real guys do without the GPS.

One last photo added to the bottom of original post: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=1947.msg17920#msg17920 This shows the lights turned off on the panel configuration.

Children at play

Another set to show off for today. Enjoy! ====================================================================== Adding one more photo here...this is one in a lights toned down config. You can do so using the lighting adjustment knobs. Note the blue tint on the art horizon.

No. And as far as I know, the 340's for US Air (at the very least in this color scheme) were/are only flown in the east coast.

I'm pretty sure I know what he means having talked with him in the past. I'm also pretty sure I'm aware of which airport he thinks it is. Back on topic now.

Doubtful. And it's not any conversion.

Sounds about right!

No Gizmo on this one. Tom has a hefty C framework he's been building up for a long time.

Yep... That's where your problem lies. Not much you can do about this but change it to a high setting.

That looks like it's coming down to your resolution. You'd have to change the part that says "very high," etc. Your graphics card may not be able to handle it, and as such your legibility on the panel is compromised.

This is not very helpful. The log won't tell anything. My assumption is your resolution is simply too little to be effective, but I or others probably really wouldn't know without a screenshot.

Hi, Jerry, Can't say I've seen this one. You should probably send an e-mail off to Randy Witt for official support. You can contact him at: randy (at) x-plane.com
