This post is complete and utter sarcasm to which you know cannot be further assisted. Posting stuff like that when you KNOW the answer is a waste of time. You know exactly where to get Saab support, and I will not play that game. I am entirely happy to help you (as is the other staff) on real technical issues, just like we have in every other thread or post of yours. But to continue to antagonize a situation where you have already been given an answer will not fly here. We'll see you after you have a 15 day cooling down period. You were warned in your XACARS thread to stop with the antics, but you did not comply. Enough is enough.

You're in the right spot for Saab support, and you know that. Please don't play games. You've had plenty of other posts/topics which have had replies to real, technical issues. Your issue is computer specific. Somehow you've managed all this time to not have such an issue, and all of a sudden have it now. It's not some widespread thing, and the only thing I can recommend to you is to test, change, or even re-install X-Plane from a demo install and see where that leads you. I'm afraid in this case you're the one who is going to have to help yourself, and I'm not going to argue it either.

I understand this. It doesn't sway me, but there are plenty of posts here from real users, as well as reviews on the actual product page for you to gauge the product. The gap between reality and this product is essentially non-existent from a simulated system standpoint. It took 3.5 years to develop this for good reason. It's up to you now to decide whether you want to dive in or not, as I can only say so much. This topic has gone round and round for two whole pages, and so at this juncture I am going to put a close to it...not because I am dissatisfied with your responses, but because you asked a question, and you received an answer. That's really the end of it. There are certainly much bigger fish to fry. I can say without doubt you are missing out on a very beautiful simulation that represents the real aircraft and its systems in a very big way...more-so than any product for X-Plane ever released, and that's a bold statement on my part. Have a good one, Tristan, and hopefully we see you in the friendly skies someday soon!

I don't have an answer for you other than reply 49. This is a flight simulator with many variables at play, including a rendering engine. We are 1/10th the entire equation. Sounds to me it hasn't consistently been 2-3fps for you. But, aside from what you already know how to do with setting adjustments, I have no further recommendation.

Stop trying to compare it to other aircraft. Not even remotely the same.

It's actually 210.

This would be a whole other product on its own.

We are working on this, but no timeline of release for now. It shouldn't be long.

Thanks for your kind comments! Please considering writing a mini review here: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/take-command-saab-340a-p-100.html#reviews

This manipulator is set to work similar to how it is in real life. In short, grab the manipulator, and pull up or down and HOLD it in that position until the number you are looking for is set. This is NOT a manipulator that you drag over and over, and if you're doing it that way...you're doing it wrong.

Well, the screenshots very clearly show a GPS, but I don't know what we'll end up with here. For now the 430 is more realistic in terms of what most had in the Citation II, but it's just too early to tell. The 430, however, does not allow for a full fledged flightplan, no.

Hi, Bill, We've see the same and are looking into it. No need to further waste your time unless you find something extremely "aha" going forward. We'll do the dirty work from here.

If it's an FMC you speak of, the answer is no.

Thanks for sharing, igorland.

I read EVERY word you said. You're missing the point entirely. The way you put it makes it as though to say the products' complexity will be its own downfall. You try to back this up with proposing an easy mode for dummies. Regardless of whether the general market will or will not utilize every feature (I have no idea if your stats are right, but I doubt it) is really irrelevant, and this is where you are not understanding me. Plain and simple: who cares if some people don't do it right? That is their choice. If they're having fun that's all that matters. There's a reason PMDG and their product type is so successful, and they don't cater to "dummies" just to get their dollar. As many times as a product has been released by that company, I think the message is quite clear on what people enjoy. With IXEG, they can do the same. Now back to your regularly scheduled 737 chatter.

Because your comments were logically silly. You said 80% of people won't be able to operate (how do you even know that) it, and that IXEG will frustrate "sunday simmers". My point of post is quite clear: The number of customers developers like IXEG are targeting far outweigh that of "sunday simmers" (a group of individuals that IXEG is surely NOT targeting). PMDG has been around for a very, very long time. I don't think those people keep returning for every product they churn out with frustration in their mind. Obviously they're doing something right, and as we have seen, complexity sells.

Quick, someone call PMDG and tell them they're doing it wrong!

Thanks!

The only person who brought any mention about perfect is you. Not developers. You may say the Saab is not perfect (somehow HDR is more important than an accurate simulation and design aspect to you). You may say PMDG is not perfect. That's your right, but the important factor in this is: neither of these projects released as you suggest this to. Maybe perfection is not the goal. Completion is, and that's not for you to decide. I think it's time to give this a rest and let the topic do what it's intended to.

It's not happening, and that's the final answer.

As someone who deals with more customers and users than most anyone in the market, I know you're wrong. I'll give you my take on JAR: it was a disaster. It's probably the one release I saw consistent user dissatisfaction with. Thankfully the developer has stuck with it and improved. The Saab is a perfect example of doing it right wins. There was lots of praise and appreciation when we announced delays in order to not sell customers short. If people go back to MSFS that's okay. They can always come back, and often times they do!

I don't think it's Tom's job to argue JAR's reputation. Whether you agree or not, Tom gave you an answer, and one I entirely agree with. First impression is everything, and what they are doing appears nothing short of amazing. Hats off to IXEG!

Doing this becomes rather complicated due to each person having different screen resolutions. It would require code that would be not only complex, but wasteful because it would run every flight loop. In short, the answer is 'no' for now. No, there is not.

AF, Jim's point is valid but my automatic assumption is that you used HDR. Is that not the case?
