NZFF

It is extremely unpleasant for me, but I must ask you to download the installer again, hopefully for the last time. I am very sorry about this! The AIAE self-updater needs three more DLLs, but only if an update is actually available. I only noticed this today when I activated version 4.2.8. Unfortunately, the missing DLLs cause the program to crash. Therefore, I will not push the update to the current version for the next few days. Please download the new installer from the two usual locations: here @ MAIW and here @ The Owl's Nest . Besides fixing the self-update mechanism, the following...

thats mighty generous of you Rob :cheers: as a former happy buyer of your stuff can say "get in there" to anyone who doesnt have it yet !!!

That looks fantastic.

No quite often there is push- pull required. Even on wide bodies.

CP I have just about everything Dino Cattaneo has done. His Skyhawks are amazing for their age. I don't think I could go back to FSX, so much of that stuff ports over to P3D with minimum problems, and it suits my ancient rig... maybe the upgrade will happen next year and I can join you all :rolleyes:

I guess that's one of the nice things about focusing solely on NZ ... the limited number of airport addons! Also one of the frustrating things. Double-edged sword! :)

It's great that they constantly update the sim, but you'd expect the focus to be more on core sim functions, than window dressing Outer Mongolia. I think MS must cause great stress in the FOMO generation.

Make sure to use John Young’s C-130 Ski Bird for your arctic setup, it is a jewel.] Nice !! will do :cheers:

Just downloaded it tonight - took about 2 minutes to download. This is very impressive scenery. Absolutely love the animated waterfalls, animals (and sounds) and the coastlines. FPS is not too bad. Here's Quinton Lodge with Sutherland Falls in background. Went to Big Bay Beach Strip. Interesting machinery here, LOL. Sorry mate, won't need a pushback today.

That has a very long way to go, indeed.... As you say, Charl - Wikipedia will only need to change a few names in this article about the Badgery's Creek schemozzle, when the time comes to report on this one. Mike

The announcements above are definitely encouraging and have answered most of my concerns. My current feeling is depending on how much of an upgrade FS2024 is (and how much of a computer upgrade it might require...) I might just stick with MSFS for a while. I've always been able to keep myself plenty occupied in FS without needing pre-made 'scenarios' but I can see how that is a very logical step to draw in more people who wouldn't otherwise bother with a flight simulator. The apparent AI upgrades are probably what I'm most interested by though since I feel the AI traffic is just about the...

Mind-boggling potential, for sure. Pity the text-to-speech thing for the captions slurred the words in several places. Combine this with the Bing Creator thing, and you could literally scare yourself to death :o

May be a Microsoft Thing?

get a LOT of use out of East Midlands, that and Stanstead would be the two UK2000 titles I thrash the most Glad you are enjoying two MAJOR British cargo airports Regards, Aharon

Is it somehow easier to produce scenery for MSFS versus the other legacy sims? I would have thought the opposite given the level of detail and realism. I have a batch of screenshots of Nelson which made me think the same thing. I must remember to post them, there are bits that make you shake your head. However. With the right kind of user base, you can expend plenty of resources in production. And that was back in 2020. When I start the sim I look at the MSFS Marketplace (as intended by MS) and am amazed too. It's what I waited about ten years for, in sim wilderness.

There was a question mark around the 500E, may have been resolved. Be good to get feedback if you do go. Be a good one to get some NZ MSFS paint skills going, too!

Not Hard to believe they're free really as no one is really using P3D and especially FSX these days Certainly not no one Terry !!! but definitely a slippery slope. I for one will be keeping P3D around until all the airliners I like to fly are on MSFS, for now tho it's mainly VFR stuff for me on it
