  1. +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...
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. 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.
  5. Children at play
  6. 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.
  7. 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.
  8. 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.
  9. Doubtful. And it's not any conversion.
  10. Sounds about right!
  11. No Gizmo on this one. Tom has a hefty C framework he's been building up for a long time.
  12. Yep... That's where your problem lies. Not much you can do about this but change it to a high setting.
  13. 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.
  14. 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.
  15. 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

  17. Richie, Your support request was answered to this long before you made this post. Please check your email.
  18. TBA at a later time.
  19. This means no pictures of clouds are on the orthophotos (displayed on the ground), you still get x-plane clouds, rex or not. Correct. X-Plane clouds and REX clouds work just fine.
  20. Hi, Michael, Thanks for the compliments! For your objects: This comes down to directory name ordering. The simple answer to this is that X-Plane loads things in a hierarchical order by alphabetical order. You need to re-name your objects scenery folder(s) to ensure they come up BEFORE X-Plane loads the rest of Oahu. That said, there's an even better tool for this. It's very small donationware, and does an AMAZING job at alleviating the stress of keeping your files in order! You can download the file and run the program for free, but we encourage you to donate/purchase if you find the application useful! Check it out here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=1668.0
  21. That's gonna be hard to re-create, Simon. I wish you the best of luck in your venture!

    Project 3

    When we're ready, we'll release it.
