<t>On the topic of 121.50 - a COM1 subsystem to actually respond realistically to calls on the guard frequency would be a damn fine addition, given P3D is for real world training.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> All that would be needed would be a few new AI voice responses to Mayday and Pan, giving a list o...

<r>Thanks Beau, I'll probably take the chance and see what I can get out of it.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Your reply does beg the question though <grin>: Anyone in your team looking at turning "DirectX10 Preview mode" into the real deal?<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I've never worked out if it's something la...

<t>John,<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I second a recent poster's request for a sub-forum on multi-monitor and graphics driving in general.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> I've just ordered a new ATI card to try out Eyefinity as an alternative to Matrox solutions and it and my motherboard are also Crossfire compati...

<t>Michael - the answer to all your questions is yes - you have understood correctly.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> John - Because of upcoming DRM and the hope that this stuff will only be temporarily needed until vendors follow FSUIPC's lead with Prepar3D-aware installers, I've deliberately not posted som...

<t>I get your drift but the more significant FSX add-on vendors are already looking at the commercial opportunities that Prepar3D offers and considering directly supporting it. So if, say, you want to develop a scenery product for P3D right now, that will still work with FTX or REX installed on top ...

<t>The next thing I'm going to do is look at symbolic links - so that when an installer thinks it's opening, say, FSX.cfg it's actually opening Prepar3D.cfg etc.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> But in the meantime, this procedure has resulted in trouble-free installation of every scenery, texture (notably FT...

<t>Found this by chance last night. I've got Prepar3D installed on the same box as FSX, had just exited FSX but the REX Weather Engine was still running.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Fired up P3D and the weather engine happily connected to it and started injecting weather.<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> No modifi...

<t>Right now you've opened up a whole new market for people developing addons for FSX - potential extra revenue at no additional development cost to themselves, which is great!<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> And it will hopefully have a knock-on benefit for FSX users as well - by keeping those guys in busin...

<t>I understand that your "not for entertainment purposes" agreement with Microsoft is a perfectly reasonable non-compete with general retail sales of FSX and Flight (which everyone I think expects to be more game than sim).<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> May we hope that anyone serious enough about simming...
