Paul K 93 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 The images I attach to this mail are dangerous. Very dangerous as there will be many people looking at them and thinking it looks okay but not great. They will not understand that this is a FIRST compile to FSX and that only the shapes are very close to what it will be. Everything lacks material, shading, aging and a few texture layers. In the end this will look better then the Catalina does. So if you promise to look at the shapes and nothing more you are allowed to click the images below. Mathijs, do we need much ageing and wear on something like this ? I got a quick look at an Air France A-321 flightdeck last week, and it was pristine. Not a scuff or mark anywhere. The old Catalina needed that "lived in" look, but does this state-of-the-art airliner really need it ? Why not buck the trend and give us something delivered straight from Airbus' production line, all gleaming and new ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimPilot767 157 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 give us something delivered straight from Airbus' production line, all gleaming and new ? ....because the "brand new"-state lasts only a few flights. A flawless aircraft vc has always this unrealistc photoshop-drawing-board-look....A very good example of how it could be is the new CaptainSim 767 vc.

Regards, Timo Timo, I understand what you are saying, but do you not think the scuffing and wear is sometimes over done ? Even looking at the flightdecks of museum airliners, like the VC-10, Trident and Britannia at Duxford...yes, they look old, but they don't look very worn or scratched or scuffed. Maybe the areas that hands and feet come into contact with, such as throttle levers and rudder pedals, but even then its not so bad. I suppose its down to how people look at these things and what they see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't match if hardcore-simmers want realistic runway-textures with tire-abrasion and fissures in the one hand and a flawless aircraft texture and VC on the other hand. Because of this I'm an "aging-fan". But of course this is a personal taste... Timo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kwiss 128 Posted July 22, 2009 Share Posted July 22, 2009 Maybe the next generation Simulators will add visual wear and tear to the aircrafts inside and out the more we use the planes? And its up to the pilot or company to deal with the upkeep! Surely the tech is already here to add that feature? lol Sorry just dreaming (Couldn't we have a choice of VC on the line of the Beaver? where we can can custom change the cockpit?)

Shaun Fletcher 570 Posted July 23, 2009 Share Posted July 23, 2009 Hello Kwiss, Yes good Idea and then parts can break and we can sell you the spares and charge a small maintenance fee to get them up and running again, then after so many years they are not airworthy and you have to buy a new aircraft from the shop Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Mathijs Kok, You've got to learn some Japanese to get into that market. But, seriously, if you are able to acquire these packages for sale at Aerosoft, I would buy them too. PS: I even intend to get Logitech's G940 HOTAS set soon. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesChams 108 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Mr. Mathijs Kok, Would you consider adding the A2A's Shockwave lights to this model, as well? They already have an A32x light set here:- Merci! 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
limp 29 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 Hi Mathjis, Will your Airbus be 100% compatible on 64 bit Os ? I'm guessing yes but just want to be sure. I'm having CTD or lockups with the E-JET and the Citation X so for the time being I don't fly them anymore. Wilco doesn't support 64 bit OS. Hope your bus will not have these type of issues which makes me go crazy when I'm online and FSX crashes. Especially now that IVAO runs on my laptop and cannot be the cause of FSX crashes. Can't wait for your Bus Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimPilot767 157 Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 Hello, i know it´s your desire to keep this bus simple, but do you plan to add at least the basic airbus typical features? I take it for granted that you will implement the FBW- and flight-envelope-logic, but how detailed will you implement the autothrust function, especially the approach-phase-logic with the demanded speed depending on the flaps-setting?
