To you as well!

Fair enough. This project, however, will not see it through and for obvious reasons. There are multiple 747s in the works anyhow, so you'll eventually get your fix one way or another (free and payware). Karma is decided by other forum members. It's a matter of what people consider your context to be. It has no effect on your freedom of speech, so have at it if you feel so inclined. I'm sure in time you'll get it reversed as you contribute more to the community.

All this project has been is talk. Don t get me wrong; it s a beautiful sim but people have waited too long now and there hasn't been anything to try out. You're right. We should just scrap the project. What do you say? Lose the talk, stop the development, and let life go on? ...or would you rather keep the talk and someday have it? This argument is old, guys. We're not releasing a beta. We're not releasing an unfinished product, and its finished when we say it's finished. That's all there is to it.

The answer is "No." Beta testing and feedback is the least of our worries. We know what we need to do.

Way to bring back an over one year old thread. Nevermind the fact that the developer realized he was doing wrong and did the right thing. I'm really disappointed in your lack of realization that the 747 here is rather obsolete considering the rather nice one coming out as a default aircraft in X-Plane 10. Okay, so which part are you contributing to?

No.

Any orders placed since August are pre-upgraded to 1.1. 1.2 is still in the works, and we have no tentative date at this time.

Don't assume. I can appreciate your attempt to make an educated guess, but our previous method of allowing the re-downloads ended up nearly costing us more than acceptable. In many cases it was a wash and overhead was more than income. There are many fees that are factored in to running this business outside of transfer. There are transaction costs, split revenues, upkeep, and licensing. Please stop challenging. Business is not free, and we'd like to stay in business, not out. 1% of the people who GENUINELY deserve a re-download out of some kind of fault of our own, or a malfunction with the delivery process to our customers after initial purchase. Think out of the box! People are not always honest. Some like to share, some like to come back months later down the road and re-download things from our server on our dime for a new computer, or a re-formatted computer. It's of the essence that you back up and store your products in a safe place, just as you would your X-Plane CD or any other software you may purchase. As a side note, our new system is designed to handle much larger products...some so far anticipated to be in the 90+ GB range. We want our products to be accessible and within reason cost structure wise. We very much enjoy our products as much as we enjoy making them, and we're happy to be able to extend the hand of lower cost to our customers over the greedy method of charging $200+ for a state package seen in other markets. I would hope our customers are too.

Ok, guys, Let's let this rest a bit. It's been said time and time again in this topic that engine numbers have been adjusted, and the windscreen has been changed. The last post stating so here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=1117.msg13536#msg13536 We can work on any further criticism once the next update gets released, unless you have something new to state that hasn't already been mentioned in this thread.

Our income after overhead is very little on these products. We have elected to take little in income over providing YOU as a customer a lower price. As such, allowing unlimited leeching on a file where we LITERALLY pay a fee for every megabyte transferred does not make sense when it's so easy to ultimately make our overhead cost more than our income. Not smart business, you see. The other alternative is to sky rocket the price and allow more downloads (very similar to what MSFS equivalents do)...or you could take the more than generous amount given now on initial purchase to obtain your product and back it up just as you should with anything else you purchase. We have measures in place to help those that DO lose their products, but such cases are dealt with on a case by case basis. One in every few hundred sales (if that) is hardly "difficult" (yes, it's really that rare), and as such this argument is really quite moot.

Thanks! I assume you selected the European region for download? You should not be getting too slow of a download speed like you suggest. Users have been reporting very high download speeds up to this point. These products are based on about as fast of a server as you can possibly get. This is not the place for support regarding this particular issue. Easy fix, but requires more sensitive information from you that shouldn't be shared with the public. Please send in a support request with your order details here: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/contact_us.php Okay, so it sounds like it was an issue of your throttle not responding and not so much the download speed? Sounds like it went up to a very reasonable download speed. No, but for whatever reason your download attempts were exhausted on those particular files. Easy fix, just send in that support e-mail! Thanks for purchasing!

Thank you. Been playing a little too much GT5, Simon? Back to reality... I challenge you to find a better night lighting system across X-Plane and even MSFS when it comes to orthophoto scenery. In the MSFS world it's pretty subpar, especially in urban and rural detection, and we've gone the extra mile to do so. Bear in mind that we cover large amounts of area with accurate light outlines where you would typically see lights in REAL life, and not just sporadic placement....something that has taken months of programming and careful thinking to accomplish. The other alternative is to go back to the old way...nothing but black at night. That's not so fun. Assuming you're speaking of night lighting seen in XP 10...it's based on global lights, and something X-Plane 9 is not capable of accomplishing today. Fair is fair, right?

Hi, Ed, Thanks for the compliments! No buildings are not included with this scenery pack, just as with previous other RealScenery products. The aim for these products is to increase the realism by means of VFR, and Reno enhances this further with the "Enhanced" line of work noted in the comparison chart on the page here over the old sceneries of the past: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=24&products_id=64 You are always free to add an overlay custom scenery pack to show buildings on top of the scenery, or you can also download and convert sceneries from the MSFS world (there are some good one's for Reno...like Mach1 designs version) and have objects placed that way. Thanks again for purchasing another RealScenery product. We're happy you enjoy what you've seen.

Hello, all!, RealScenery Enhanced: Reno - Carson City HR shown in the Work In Progress section of this forum has been released and can be purchased here: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=64 The Work In Progress section for Reno has been changed to a read-only forum, and all new topics regarding the scenery should be posted in the support section here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?board=22.0 Enjoy this incredible new scenery!

Reno has been released! Please post all support questions here... http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?board=22.0

Below are screenshots taken in-sim of RealScenery Enhanced: Reno/Carson City HR. More info on Enhanced products can be found here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=532.0 Enjoy!

You should be able to get very satisfactory fps with this setup.

Hi, Ekran, It should run very well on your system.

Hi, All, We get frequent requests on RealScenery product progression through contact forms, so I felt compelled to make a post here regarding the status of this project. Reno is complete, and we are happy with the road network, imagery resolution/color, and are currently doing internal download infrastructure tests. As we roll out these new "Enhanced" series of products like Reno, a lot of changes come with it in how we distribute them in the backend. Reno will introduce a brand new downloading application, new delivery infrastructure, and a new installation method to make it less confusing for our customers, and more streamlined to get you from purchased, downloaded, and running in sim in very minimal time. The servers used for the delivery of these RealScenery products are very high-end systems, and the download speeds are fantastic. So, with the above said, be on the lookout for the Reno release very soon!

If you want, you can save the following two files and delete the rest: Keys X-Plane Calibration See how that goes...should save your joystick and keyboard settings.

I've done some spring cleaning here and been getting rid of all the nasty characters as well to have some nicer looking topics and titles. Most should be back to norm or better now.

Deleting preferences was going to be my suggestion as well... You can find them in: X-Plane 9/Output/Preferences This will delete all preferences, including screen resolution, joystick assignments, etc. You'll need to re-do this stuff upon re-launch.

As already mentioned by Jim just above me here, yes, it can and has been done with ease!
