Andre, you posted that you had permission from XPJets to convert their 777 in your post on the .org. I challenged this and you produced an email that you claimed was from XPJets but was filled with spelling and grammatical issues. I contacted Dhruv from XPJets and he told me he had never heard of you and that the permission email from them that you gave me was fraudulent. We also had several other authors contact us saying that they did not give you permission to convert and republish their aircraft. We can't and won't allow copyright violations on the .org. I can't speak for this website, but I doubt you will get much sympathy here either.

Good luck with the upcoming release. It's been a long time coming and it is a delight to finally see it come to fruition. Best wishes for a smooth release any many happy customers.

We were reportedly hacked by someone in Geneva. Mark is working with Invision to patch it up and the forum will be offline until he gets it worked out.

Is this site affiliated with the .org or .org store?

Didn't say it was not a hassle, but it can be done if you want the product. -

You can always try emailing the author of the add-on directly for the update. They may be able to give you a link as well. Same thing if you want to buy a product. Most developers will sell you one directly or point you to websites where you can get their stuff if you prefer to avoid a specific one. -
Try re downloading. Obviously some of the textures have gotten mixed up. possibly the ramp texture did not get downloaded into the correct order.

Flame baiting, trolling, swearing, personal attacks, etc etc. Would not keep much hope of not being banned once this gets around though... Death threats? Really?
-
Ok I have yet to notice it. (Does not mean it's not there, I usually get the failure cause I am looking down at my iPad at the Charts lol)

Any hope of getting a way to reset an engine failure? I can't seem to get it to reset using the default x-plane failures window which I presume is because it's a gizmo failure. A reset button would be great so I can get the engine back. A little flag saying "hey dolt you forgot to do this and that killed your engine" would also be good to help me learn from my mistakes. A reset would also help when I am flying online so I can at least complete my flight. Just a thought.

And you....

Thats what I figured but since I was not 100% positive I thought it would be rude to not respond. Cheers!

Uttering Threats Threaten death or bodily harm Under the Criminal Code, it is an offence to knowingly utter or convey a threat to cause death or bodily harm to any person. It is also an offence to threaten to burn, destroy or damage property or threaten to kill, poison or injure an animal or bird that belongs to a person. Penalties The offence of utter death threat may be prosecuted by summary conviction or by indictment. If prosecuted by indictment, the accused person is entitled to elect trial by jury and upon conviction is liable to up to five years jail. In most cases, however, the offence is prosecuted by summary conviction, requiring a trial before a lower court justice. In this case, the maximum penalty is 18 months imprisonment. What the Crown must prove To secure a conviction at trial, the Crown must prove that the person making the threat did so knowingly. That is, the prosecution must show that he was aware of the words used and the meaning they would convey. It also must show that he intended the threat to be taken seriously, that is, to intimidate or strike fear into the recipient. It is not necessary that the person making the threat intend to carry it out or be capable of doing so. The motive for making the threat is equally irrelevant. In assessing whether the words constitute a threat, they must be considered objectively. The court must ask: In the context and circumstances in which the words were spoken or written, the manner in which they were used, and the person to whom they were directed would they convey a threat to a reasonable person? A history of violence between the parties may support a finding that the words were intended as a threat. Whether or not the person making the threat has an apparent ability to carry it out when the words are spoken, his use of gestures or acts, whether the recipient of the words takes them seriously, and disparity in size between the speaker and the recipient of the threat may all be relevant to an assessment of the speaker’s intent. Conditional threat A threat may be conditional. In 1986, the Ontario Court of Appeal ruled that it was a threat when a man phoned police and said he would shoot an officer who wanted to question him if the officer did not leave his property. Idle threats No offence is committed, however, if a threat is innocently made. The offence is not meant to criminalize idle threats or words blurted out only in anger, desperation, bitterness or frustration. Words said in jest or in a manner that they could not be taken seriously do not constitute a threat. Intended victim need not know of threat To be an offence, the threat need not be made directly to the intended victim. The intended victim need not even be aware of the threat. Nor is it necessary that the person making the threat intend that it be communicated to the target of the threat. The purpose of the offence is to protect the exercise of freedom of choice by preventing intimidation. Lawful excuse A threat made against a trespasser may be justified. However, the property owner must first ask the trespasser to leave and give him a reasonable opportunity to do so. A person in imminent danger or distress in the face of an aggressor may be justified in making threats as an act of self-defence. Criminal Code Of Canada PART VIII OFFENCES AGAINST THE PERSON AND REPUTATION Assaults Uttering threats 264.1 (1) Every one commits an offence who, in any manner, knowingly utters, conveys or causes any person to receive a threat (a) to cause death or bodily harm to any person; ( to burn, destroy or damage real or personal property; or © to kill, poison or injure an animal or bird that is the property of any person. Punishment (2) Every one who commits an offence under paragraph (1)(a) is guilty of (a) an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding five years; or ( an offence punishable on summary conviction and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding eighteen months. Idem (3) Every one who commits an offence under paragraph (1)( or © (a) is guilty of an indictable offence and liable to imprisonment for a term not exceeding two years; or ( is guilty of an offence punishable on summary conviction. R.S., 1985, c. 27 (1st Supp.), s. 38; 1994, c. 44, s. 16.

If that was directed at me then there is nothing wrong with it at all. In fact after i became a staff member on the .org i went on to co found ArmChair Aviation and worked with FlyJSim on the Q and the upcoming 727. It's not my primary sourse of income as you all know, but I do it because I love working with Jack, learning new things and helping to make high quality aircraft.
-
Well you are wrong. I am a moderator/forum staff member there, not one of the payware dev group, and you swore at me and called me names in your post then have the arrogance to ask me to use the 767 that I updated as if nothing was wrong...
-
Before anyone asks this 25 year old arrogant old guy with a stick up his ass said no to using my 767 update as the base for anything. It's based on the v.5 767 by XPFW anyway. Once they revoked the copyright I took it upon myself to update it just for fun, and being called names and swore at is not fun...

Official In-Sim Previews - February, 2nd, 2012
YYZatcboy replied to Cameron's topic in Douglas DC-3 - Released!
Looks nice -
I can't believe that no one has mentioned it yet because it drives me nuts, but all the dials are backwards. When your altitude is climbing the higher numbers should not be rotating upward. Same thing with the autopilot controls. Higher numbers are coming from the bottom. they should come from the top.
-
It could well be a difference between the Classics and the NG's. And the MCC guys could have been oversimplifying it. I will look in the FOM to see if there is anything in there about it. The pilots were positive about not turning it on in flight in the NG though.
-
My Airline (Granted we fly NG's now, so they may well be different) only turns on the Engine anti Ice when passing through visible moisture. Turning on Wing Anti Ice above (IIRC) 23000 feet diverts so much bleed air to the leading edge that there is not enough left to maintain pressurization in the cabin. (Or So MCC, and the pilots have told me)
-
Yeah. Don't turn the wing anti ice on when you are over 23000 ft or you depressurize the cabin. (Pilots have told me that they have never in their career turned on the wing anti ice on in flight )
-
TRD is SO on my places to visit list once I get staff travel back!
-
Nice to see the Recall function works. (Not that I had any doubts mind )
