There are very valid reasons it's done this way. The way you propose is insecure, defeats licensing control, easily cracked and pirated, and does us no good as a company who has invested much research in the statistics of DRM vs Non-DRM on our products in this market, but depend on sales in said small market to put food on the table for families. Further, this is the proper direction. Some of the largest corporations in the world have moved to this method. It is not dated, but more futuristic. Autodesk, Adobe, Luxology, and so many others have now going the "cloud revolution".

The DC-3 will work in 11. There were no special updates yet done for it in 11, but it does run. A small texture patch was also provided for use in 11:

X-Plane controls the reflected sun on water. What you're seeing is our sun model based on the closest year in time to which Laminar uses for their reflections (about 2014). Every now and again you'll likely find a quirk like this.

LOL, I know I shouldn't laugh at this, but I did. This random vision of a "pucker up" face came across my mind as you get instructions from ATC and pray at the same time.

No, not the case. When you disable Gizmo you also disable SkyMaxx Pro, so the clouds you see appearing are default clouds.

You're not doing anything wrong. We're working within reason to not overload customers' computers. Glad you're enjoying it!

Got something you need help with?

Haha, ya, not that guy, but I wouldn't be surprised if very alike in person.

There's definitely something "off" about him. He's also out starting conspiracy theories now too. Someone just alerted me to this little quote in his last post at the org: @Agrajag said: So apparently now each person in this thread is a fake because they didn't agree with this dude's childish antics. He seems to insinuate the accounts are fake. I don't know who thinks that way, but perhaps this guy does that himself in other venues and tries to lay blame on normal people in society who actually can see this guy for what he is. Sorry to all those in this thread being accused of fake. We appreciate your support and patronage during this little bump with a childish adult.

Glad you like it!

Yessir.

Hot air. Lots of it. And blind like a bat too. You have lost so much perspective in life it seems, especially statistically. The "dwarfing" numbers is so infinitely dwarfed in comparison to our costumer base or even product orders. There will always be a few. You're one of them. This situation certainly wasn't challenging. Just challenged. A mouse click. A MOUSE CLICK! You're off the rocker, dude.

Mark, Before we go further, the falco will not work in XP 11 or 10, we do not sell this (for a long time), and I'm curious what version of X-Plane you're now trying to use it with?

X-Plane users are quite vocal. We have had thousands of activations on this new setup in one days time. I have received exactly ONE email about this notification and asking how to get rid of it. Care to guess who from? You. There have been THREE people asking about how to dismiss it a bit easier across forums. There have been numerous people, especially in your org topic, telling you to literally "get a grip", or "get over it". You blew something up over a mouse click. Like a child with a temper tantrum because mommy made him tie his shoe before going outside. Ben did reply to this early. Tons of people did and still are talking about you behind your back. What's sad is you are blinded by being able to see how bad the antics you pulled really make you look. If I had read this thread before reading your OK Cupid profile I'd call BS all day long like playing a poker match. One things for sure...you really love to write about yourself.

It's roughly equal in size.

Ah, I can see how you could assume that. Happy to help!

Hi there! Simply move your mouse to the right hand of the screen to bring the Gizmo menu up, and then click on the preferences icon. De-select the option for checking the license at each startup. Easy, peasy!

Aside from the fact I'm talking to a seemingly ignorant individual, I do not have a chip on my shoulder. You just seem to have a comprehension level less than that of my brothers pre-school child. Given your age, it's also not so likely you'll change, either. No, you're trying to MAKE it more than a push notification. Your gripe was the notification. That's what sparked this. Because you're too cool for school to click your mouse twice a month. The more you type, the more stupid comes out. This is literally that. I only know what you've publicly gloated about yourself. Remember, you did that before I ever said a darned thing. The whole holier than thou comes from you, not I. You're the one who wanted it to be known about your profound greatness in life about researching or writing on these things. Holy s*it, Batman. Talk about proving my point on comprehension levels! We're talking about knowledge in X-Plane DRM and you want to start asking questions about your favorite color or where you spend your time? Lame. What a poor argument. Go ahead and count them. It's small. Wouldn't even amount to 1% of our customer base. I really hope they do read it thoroughly. It's quite evident who the child is if they do. You were on a tirade before I entered this convo about how you can't possibly use a product with a notification that requires your mouse click. Well, you're gone I guess, right? Yes, you're very skewed, silly version of facts. Thank the lord those speaking about you both in PM and now through alternate channels are mocking what a crazy goof you seem to come off like. It's not just me. Hopefully you're done now.

Way more complex. Read up on Hosek-Wilkie.

You're welcome!

I'm saying you must unzip the zip file with Stuffit.

I understand that. But you still need to do what I said.

Based on what you’re explaining this actually sounds like OS X’s app scrambling. Apple has created a function of OS X Sierra which will prevent files from running properly by “scrambling” the file path code. The intention from Apple’s end was to be a security measure, but some people get hit by this even on honest files that do not contain a virus. As per the documentation found around in our forums, most customers get around this by downloading Stuffit Expander or an alternative free unzip app and unzipping the zip files with this application. The files should work after this.

This guy gets it. Thank you for your sanity.

This topic is about a stupid push notification. The rest is moot. You trying to add more elements is just lunacy. I'll take you on that bet. You're not the only customer that matters, oh Holy one. Your years of boring writing on this can be kept to yourself. It's not going to change anything here, and no matter what you say, you will never have the experience of the market or how the younger crowd of it function in it when it comes to piracy, regardless of what you think. I know more about this subject than you do. I also know how the attempted cracks that came about work. And, I also know our tamper detection mechanisms that report things to us and ultimately lead to piracy crack down on these "cracked" products (which by the way, is old crap...like IXEG 1.0.5 even though they try and label as the latest, or SkyMaxx Pro v3, etc). I'm more than positive I keep a MUCH closer eye of dissection on it than you. Go on, have a read. Enjoy some of the threads about entire X-Plane installs being deleted from pirates too. You want to take the gamble of piracy? Go for it. My point is very simple: You're making LOUD noises about a stupid mouse click. That's amazing, and a total waste of time.
