Just curious, what is a ROD prediction?

Would just like to express my sincere respect for Aerosoft. It's almost always a joy to buy products from this company. I don't 100% of the time agree on some of the pragmatism, like static ships in the North Sea, or some lack of interest to perfect aircraft systems; but overall high quality support, products and a very well run forum. Deepest respect of Mathijs Kok way of communication and overall atmosphere in the forum. That the company brings continuity to this hoppy, is also something that cannot be taken for granted. Looking forward to what Aerosoft will bring to the marked in 2023, and the continued updates of current products. Thank you.

Hope you'll be able to make their products compatible with Aerosoft One soon. It's a pain that they are not already...

Without answering for whether or not use any desktop flight sim stuff for training, I would highly advice against using P3D at this time/invest time and energy into it. It's a dated platform, probably without necessary resources or interest to get it up to date. Better learn how to adjust the knobs in MSFS, than stick to the past
But speaking of different simulators strengths. X-plane is running FAA approved setups, and I'm actually quite impressed with XP-12. MSFS has some sincere problems in ground dynamics simulation (it's still the old FSX-friction model as far as I know), and although flying in MSFS is getting improved and feels less static with the dynamic CFD-system, very few aircraft are ported over yet (and there are still some problems, especially with rudder authority). I know quite a lot of student pilots who use X-plane for both fun and training.

I'll give the Düsseldorf to Basel tutorial flight a new try, last time, it did not work, but that was one update ago.
Also, except for some joystick-mapping nitpicking on my part, it would be great if you could look into the issues described here, I would guess it would be easy to fix/implement:Note: That pilots forgets to set correct trim or flap settings happens, so there is a good reason why these alerts are there in the real plane. A simulator pilot flying alone is probably more likely to make such mistakes.
-
Can anyone confirm the status of this issue?
-
Mathijs, I think you are not taking the issues with the CRJ seriously enough. It's got an amazing model, great EFB, wonderful audio and mostly fantastic documentation and systems. However, the aircraft is still in such a state 'bug-wise' and 'feature-wise', that it's even not possible to follow the tutorial flight (from Düsseldorf to Basel).
Without me having an oversight, and not trying to be rude to comment on it, but it sincerely seems like you're a bit understaffed on system programming at AS to keep up with todays expectations. Even default MSFS planes are becoming quite solid in their system and autopilot modelling, the last update by Working Title is quite impressive.
-
The product is updated to the correct version via manual reinstallation, but ASUpdater was not able to update the product.
-
The update button was greyed out. Needed to reinstall the CRJ-package from the Aerosoft webpage/download section to get the CRJ up to date.

Did you read the posts above?
Are you referring to this?
"Well, as the window to the right say, there os a new installer available. That‘s why the update button is greyed out.
Flightsim.com has to provide you with. fresh installer."
-
I have the same problem, ASUpdater won't update the product (CRJ). Update option is greyed out.

Yes. Simmers expect that, even though in many aircraft the pilots will never ever hear the flap motors. Totally unrealistic but we learned the hard way that if a sim pilot extends the flaps they expect to get a audio feedback. Even in an A380. Even with noise canceling headphones simulated.
Thats pretty insane/absurd/stupido.
I uninstalled the FBW a320 as the reverse-engine sound was totally unrealistic from the cockpit.
What about an option in the EFB, to change over to realistic sound levels for the purists? -
...any more information on this update?

Or they need more core-sim people to keep up with the progress of the 3D-modellers and texture painters?
I think a pinned feedback-snapshot on each of the products with some road-map information like MS/Asobo does, would be very helpful in avoiding the feeling of previous products being abandoned or left 'unfinished' (whatever that means?).-

Request for Mega Airport Frankfurt EDDF for MSFS
The Premium version is far from MAP quality. Very basic and lots of signs and groundmarkings near gates are missing to name a few….
Have you requested a fix of the most 'pressing' issues at the official Flight Simulator forum. Would like to upvote that as a feature request.
-
Frankfurt is already modelled by Asobo, not sure if I would prioritise to buy that one, IMHO.
Remember someone asked about more vacation destination sceneries. Would like to request: Sharm el Seikh. Landmarks and airport.
-
Hmm, maybe we're not talking about the same. I found back to this fascinating piece of geekery:
-
Austin over at X-plane seems really excited about their new A330: It's FBW'system, engine simulation and the physics of the main landing gear (according to him, giving an extra push on takeoff). Are you planning to make a product that match the advertised realism of their offering?
-
-
I've got a FSX appcrash the only two times I've flown into the Frankfurt area.
Windows 7 SP1, 64bit
Flying in a PMDG-MD11
MAP EDDF and German Landmarks installed
GEX and UTX installed
Connected to IVAO (a lot of traffic in the area)
Has anyone else experienced such a problem?

Really?
I won't speak for anybody else here, but access to my wallet is not a given to any software company, even Microsoft.
Companies that forget that tend to wonder later why sales did not match projections.....
Or they hastily and belatedly begin reaching out after the fact to the consumers who's interest they took for granted.
I have left Ms products on the shelves before, and have no qualms about doing it again.
If and when you will get a superior experience in the Flight game, you will probably change platform... as any enthusiast would. Just my two cents.
Anyways, my hope is for a simulator consisting of:
- A scalable cross platform render and scenery system (used in desktop, military and full motion simulators)
- Open source flight dynamics and physics
- Open source electric, fluid and subsystem framework
Add to the mix - well designed developer tools. For instance procedural painting of large ground ground and depth textures (virtual textures). It would drop development time for scenery add-ons to half or maybe a third.

You will go were the community goes. MS does not have to convince you, if they make Flight into a great platform for add-ons and secure a large market, you will come onboard sooner or later - as the high fidelity after marked products pop up:)
BTW: I'm not a fan of MS Flight. I would wish that another company would make a superior product.
A dream would be a product consisting of:

I don't think MS will be silly enough not to realize the potential market represented by the denizens of the numerous websites like this who will not only buy at launch (out of curiosity) but will also continue to buy, year after year, out of genuine affinity for the genre.
The first few months after launch may generate some nice money, but its been the long term people who love flying that kept coming back again and again for version after version for Microsofts offerings.
Not to mention the ingenuity and innovation of the third party designers who kept the market going while MS was asleep at the wheel.
If Microsoft really thought they did not need to bring those people into the circle, they would be very stupid indeed.
So yes, I think they need to do some convincing, or a huge number of people will either stay where they are (FSX) or will jump ship for whatever fills their needs.
AFS 20?? X-Plane?

VNAV question

The CRJ is quite close to perfection. Hopefully Hartman will be able to implement further improvements after the ATR-project; I would guess that the process of working directly and for the MSFS developers will bring improvements to the platform, that also the CRJ will have benefits from.
