Yup, went with 1 TB drive, should have gone with more.
Side note, is everyone aware that Simheaven imagery is google maps images?

Visual appearances and lack of 3D cockpit aside....that's been beaten to death in the rant section thread.
How is the experience compared to Peter Hager's A320 and JARDesign's A320? I'm not a real pilot, but I like to follow all the check-lists and pretend to be one, learn something along the way. I like to think that what's going on in the sim is a reasonable approximation to what would be happening in real life.
Just trying to get a better feel before plopping down money.

Wonderful news! Good luck with your project. I fly with a UK based VA, so this will be a definite buy.

What are the keyboard commandsGo to the settings menu and click on Joystick and Equipment page. There are a few tabs for you to look at, but I recommend the Keys: Advanced tab. Basically you just push a key or a button on your joystick and can then assign it to any command you want. I think you'll find it easier to customize your commands than FSX (I do) and going through the pain of getting everything to your liking is well worth it.
If you just want a list of default command, check out the Keys tab, it will show what is assigned to what key on the keyboard. But you kind of have to browse through it all to find what you're looking for.

Can you spot anything peculiar on this shot?They were simpler times. When passengers could smoke in-flight, and pilots stuck all manner of decals on the windshield...

The stress and anticipation of a major exam is always worse than the exam itself! Congratulations!

How do you like this kind of "screenshot stories"?Love it!

Too bad I can't buy itSave your birthday/gift/job money.

For an idea of the stark differences, start up at RJOC - Izumo Airport in default scenery and then with the HD mesh, the default is missing an enormous lake with a 50 km circumference!

Japan is badly underrepresented in the X-Plane world!A shame really because the X-Plane scenery really captures the non-urban Japanese scenery very well (80% of Japan is forested mountain terrain, which is a strong point in X-Plane scenery, imho). But hopefully this will all change soon! The uniformity of Japanese airports makes for fairly quick building in WED.

Thank you thank you thank you! I've been waiting for this one with baited breath. I really enjoy flying around Japan, having lived there for 4 years. I am also currently working on a bunch of lego-brick airports for it as well! Downloading now.

Yay! Thanks for continuing to improve the program. I've been enjoying it a lot.

not many people would be willing to pay for an aircraft.That's just like your opinion man!
I'm really enjoying LES' Saab 340, FlyJSim's 737-200, and Javier Rollon's Jetstream 32.

More likely Steam will be the thing that sustains third party developer interest. The customer count at the moment is critically low.One can definitely hope. It's just like me to throw time and money into a hobby that totters along the brink of disaster. I'm off to go throw more time into some lego-brick airports, as that seems to be the other large user complaint, empty default airports.

So Rise of Flight steam edition is incompatible with regular RoF add-ons, the biggest thing being you can't take advantage of their awesome 50% off sales, or buy just one add-on. Steam edition seems to bundle everything. Based on Train Simulator model I see on Steam they are probably going to make 3rd party add-ons only available as official DLC, which will kill the whole thing. I guess after plopping down all that money for the rights they have to recoup it somehow.
Oh yes, now I'm seeing a trend here: "Former EA executives Rob O’Farrell and Chris Roberts are leading the development of Dovetail Games Fishing. - See more at: http://www.dovetailgames.com/news/2014/jul/1/dovetail-games-announce-a-new-breed-of-fishing-simulator#sthash.D7KtUciE.dpuf"
What could possibly go wrong with input from EA thinkers!

I'm sorry, I hope I didn't cause you too much emotional grief because I made one post asking about his screenshots.I'm pretty sure It wasn't the asking, it was including his screenshots in your quote, which means twice the data download. You can quote his post (so he gets the notification) but not include the screenshots themselves.

Check out the German airport packs by Janov on the Org. He's been making plausible airports all over Germany using only default X-Plane 10 resources, no need for OpenScenery, etc. Very well done stuff.

You'll be disappointed, they have confirmed they won't migrate any of their legacy products. Maybe the 747 V2 could be in the works though.Which makes me wonder if they're not doing the DC-6 for both XPX and FSX, since it sounded like they were going for release awhile ago. That would be fantastic. But man, 747-400 would be wicked awesome too!

I have kids moving out and into college, etcSsshhhhhh...you date yourself

you could just avoid this thread. It's that simple.Thread titles pop up on the main page. The point is that if you give the result in the title of the post it's completely unavoidable unless you abandon the x-pilot forum altogether.

This is the site I used to learn about navigating in flight sim, a great resource here!

Excuse me, Hobofat. I certainly didn't mean for it to sound "holier than thou."Understood, thanks for the response.

Hopefully this thread can serve to educate others who might contemplate any form of piracy, redistribution or theft of intellectual property. It appears Archie has come to understand the X-Plane community is a lot smaller and tighter than he may have realized. If you don't want to get kicked out of the pool, it's best not to pee in it.
The right choice was made based on the good advice provided in the thread, including an apology. The holier than thou attitude displayed here is really unnecessary.
Anyone weighed their X-Plane 10 folder lately ?

What's the reliability of drives greater than 1 Tb? When I put together my system I read that they can be more prone to errors than 1 Tb drives and under, which was largely the reason I went that way. Thinking I might want to upgrade...
