  1. That is what I would say to uninformed FSX users......please be quiet and enjoy your Sim. B)

    In case anybody cares:

    I am leaving this board now. I will still enjoy Aerosoft products as I believe they are making the best for FSX there is at the moment and the support is great, but I will not read or post here anymore. This place is crawling ... I have read about enough here by computer illiterates, morons, trolls, or whatever other FSX bashers plaguing this board ... my final advice to those:

    If all you can do about your endless frustration about Aerosoft producing most of its great new add-ons for FSX-only (except AES, which will be FSX soon) or that you are still stuck with your ancient rig is ranting, lying, throwing tantrums and trolling, then I suggest you go see a shrink. No one takes you seriously. This was fun for a while, the frame completes were even true for some time, but not any more ...

    See you all around ... and happy flying ... I'm off to a troll-free place. Tolerance is fine, but methinks, the staff is overdoing it here.

    Marc, signing off.

    To staff: Keep up the excellent work, looking forward to the next release! :)

  2. If you want to have fun and fly go FS9!!

    If you want to enjoy slideshows go FSX!!

    If you hate FSX that much, then fly FS9 and - with respect - leave us alone. The amount of FSX bashing by uniformed simmers like you is really getting most annoying ...

    If you are honestly interested in learning about computers, read this:

    http://www.forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?showtopic=21858 or a similar hardware guide and then think again about your frame-claim. That quote of yours is actually sort of embarrassing ...

    What is it actually that guys like you want? If you are so happy with flying FS9, then, why not just do it and be quiet?

  3. What is Microsoft’s future intent as regards flight simulation? Simple really… Create a flight simulation system for Windows Live, and sell applications for it much like Apple does for their IPhone / Ipod family.

    I'd rather fly FSX in 2020 than jump onto that waggon ... :angry:

  4. Feel free to enjoy FS2004, I know I do at times.

    So do I - just to let people know I'm not a FS9 hater, I just believe it had it's time ... now here are a few nice shots I took in FS9 :

    ( if it's utterly OT here, don't hesitate to move it ... )

  5. GEX is a great product, but thanks to the incorporation of many of the USA textures in other parts of the world, you will also get changes to textures in Europe, or in most other places you may fly. This does NOT integrate completely with the existing textures so unless and until the European textures are finally delivered you will have a slightly jarring effect in Europe if you fly wit these installed.

    However GEX Europe is in the pipeline : http://www.simforums.com/forums/forum_post...=26352&PN=7 ( well, actually has been for a long long time ... :rolleyes: )

  6. FSX seems to be either the most demanding SIM ever or the worst optimized game ever made. I am running a q6600 at 2.6GHZ/4G RAM and a 9800GT (8800GT) is the same damn thing I got ripped by NV. I get 30 to 50 FPS but low 30's FPS seem to really affect the quality of fight. But what does it take to get FSX running good at full settings? Are we expected to run this game at 8FPS? I installed FEX which actually helps performance even though it looks better (HD clouds ECT). Is any one running a 280 NV or higher what is your performace like?

    To get a better framerate, FSX requires CPU power, not GPU power ... frankly, a Q6600 ist absolutely NOT high end ...

    cheers,

  7. Microsoft is going to leave the PC game market rather obviously. They're going to make their profit with console games in the future.

    That is the key issue ... yep ... even today, the vast majority of all newly produced PC games are console conversions or at least parallely produced stuff ... wasn't Crysis the last big PC-only title???

    I too believe that it is likely, that MS will eventually produce some flying GAME for consoles ... probably some multiplayer arcade game or so ... :\

    But - as has been said - for the next 5 years or so nothing will change for us ... I hope :)

  8. Well I have feeling that we will see many developers who dropped FS9 development products and stick to FSX moving back to both FS9 & FSX. I can tell you and 99.9% of the FS9 guys will stay with FS9 for many years. I see no need to move to FSX, if MS delays the next release of FS for 3-4 years that is a lot of lost sales for developers for FS9 customers. They cannot survive on FSX products alone I hope we can see some more FS9 and FST duel design releases like FSDT does.

    Sean

    Uhm - I am seeing exactly the opposite - most FS9ers claimed, they'd "skip" FSX and wait for the next version, to come in 2009/2010 or so ... but now with FS11 (or whatever it'll be called) delayed probably for a much longer time, I guess most will move to FSX. FSX will now be the "top model" for a much longer time and companies won't drop FSX anytime soon as they dropped FS9 when FSX came out. In two years tops, 90% of simmers will have PCs that can run FSX with all details maxed. By then, the number of add-ons will be huge already.

    So, imho very many FS9 fans will move to FSX in the foreseeable future, because there won't be an FS11 for some time.

  9. Hello Marc,

    Yes I see what you mean now and yes I also know why you and others cant upload.

    As this forum is a Preview Forum then User's cant upload anything nor can they start new topics

    this is by design.

    Hey, no problem ... just wanted to point out why I am not posting in the correct thread, Shaun :)

    cheers,

  10. Hello Marc,

    Attachments there like the picture show up no problem here whether logged in or out of the forum for me!

    Other people can't see the attachments there?

    Ah, no fellas, you both misunderstood - what I meant is that when I post something in the preview section, I do not have the option to add attachments! (Seeing pics posted by you guys is no problem ... perhaps admin rights are required?)

    In this section for example, no problem - see attached screenshots!

    ( workaround : give me admin rights ... :lol: )

  11. Ok, for reasons unknown attachments don't seem to work in the "preview" section ... at least for me, lol ... hence the post here:

    Here's a comparison shot of one of Mathij's preview pics with a Google Earth shot from approximately the same angle / height ... check out how each building has been modelled extremely lifelike!!!

    *drool*
