Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted April 30, 2013 Aerosoft Share Posted April 30, 2013 It's always rather dangerous to rename a product in mid flight but we are forced to do so because the A318/319/330 are coming up. So Airbus X Extended just does not fit anymore. Starting with version 1,10 we'll rename the current Airbus X Extended into Aerosoft Airbus X A320/321. This will make room for the Aerosoft Airbus X A18/310 and Aerosoft Airbus X A330. So if you see the new name, don't be surprised. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those were the A320/321 models, too, after all. Must admit, I can't propose anything better/clearer myself, so ... disregard. Thanks for info. Forum name will changed now or after sp1? And we will got one forum for each? Or will be the same forum for all? Any chance to have a "break" or a "cut" in the forums in order to distinguish between issues before v1.1, and issues after release of v1.1, maybe?

Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Wait! How about: - Aerosoft Airbus Project A320/321, - Aerosoft Airbus Project A318/319, - Aerosoft Airbus Project A330? These are the Aerosoft Airbus projects, after all ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham W 67 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Or just accept what's been decided? Or are we to have a 20 page topic on alternate suggestions now? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheyenne Chief Pilot 829 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Or just accept what's been decided? Or are we to have a 20 page topic on alternate suggestions now? I'm fine with any confusion of AXE with AX. I don't have to bear those consequences ... Or Airbus X Edition. Edition would a very good generic term to cover all three projects at once. Unfortunately the abbreviation for it would be AXE again?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And we will got one forum for each? Or will be the same forum for all? I changed it just now. I do like the idea of 'resetting' the forum (perhaps closing all posts?) to start out with a more or less clean slate with version 1.10, let me consider that.

Kiber 8 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I think at least closing all old topic's and tag them with v1.0 might be a good idea, or create a subforum and dump all the outdated v1.0 topics in there. Deleting may not be a very good idea since there is still relevant information that can be found trought a search or so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flightplayer 113 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 It's always rather dangerous to rename a product in mid flight On board flight AXE: Captain: "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. Please be advised that our flight callsign will change from AXE to AXA320/321. I'll talk to you further in the flight more precisely upon 1.10 release. Please keep your seat belt fastened as we are going full thrust towards SP1. Thank You!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hud635jk 102 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 What happens with the description entry for every livery out there, for the 5 current aircraft models? It contains the phrase "Airbus X Extended". The 5 aircraft.cfg files can be easily changed with a text editor (find & replace), but what happens with the readme file within each ZIP of each livery out there? (100s of them) PS: Unless you do not plan to change the description entries in the aircraft.cfg files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiber 8 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 Should have kept it Extended for the 320/321 and call the 319/318 the Airbus X Shortened =) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SahinCe 24 Posted April 30, 2013 Share Posted April 30, 2013 I do not think it really a good idea to change the name because there are too many things depend and it is too late. This is just a suggestion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rjord 86 Posted May 1, 2013 Share Posted May 1, 2013 I do not think it really a good idea to change the name because there are too many things depend and it is too late. This is just a suggestion. With the Aerosoft Airbus X A318/A319/A330 coming later it is better they change things now before things get really complicated. If the name was left as Airbus X Extended people would not know if Airbus X extended was referring to the A318/A319/A320/A321 or the A330. It would get really messy in the forums.
