  1. Yes, you could also say they are both DC-9's. From what the devs have said so far ATS is making the 82 and Rotate the 88... essentially the same plane.
  2. I have been following Parsec's (I think the group goes by ATS) MD-82 for a very, very long time. It does look promising but quite far off from release. Rotate's MD-88 pop'd up on my radar about 8 months ago and also looks very good. It is nearing beta and should* according to the dev be released sometime this year. I am eagerly awaiting both of them.
  3. Don't get me wrong, I would absolutely love a PMDG quality 75/67 and wouldn't complain one bit if they decided to go ahead and do it. There are many planes that I would like to see done in over the top quality, but if I had to pick one and one alone, it would be the MD-80, something about that plane...
  4. Since this thread is a bunch of wishful thinking, I will side with those who wish for a PMDG MD-80. I don't know what I would do with myself if that happened. While there are a few MD-80's on the market, none really put it all together. I know the probability of a PMDG MD-80 is tiny to say the least, it would get my vote anyways. Here a little MD-80 motivation http://youtu.be/7R0CViDUBFs
  5. Hmm, I have zero problems with DC-9 since early on, patches have fixed all that. My only knock on it would be the cockpit lighting could be a bit better, but that's a rather small issue and I'm working on custom fx's to help it a bit. There are pluses and minuses to both the CS737 and Milviz 737, they are two parts that if they could be combined would make a really good 732 sim. As far as comparing the CS737 to the DC9, the DC9 has all those little extras that put it in a different class and make it what I consider a more complete package. And as somebody else mentioned the support for the DC9 is hands down spectacular, Espen takes care of his customers.
  6. I wouldn't go that far. To CS's credit their L1011 is quite nice. I would agree with others that the Milviz 737 is a better comparison, it is nice too. I just wish they would fix a few niggles with the exterior model.
  7. I don't know, in my opinion the DC-9 is in a whole other league from the CS737, just way ahead. The DC-9 is also a joy and pleasure to hand fly, I don't remember how the 737 was but I don't remember it flying particularly well.
  8. KSP is very addictive, great game. I have made it too the mun twice, but have never made it back. 1st successful attempt to make it there and I crashed on the Mun, sent a rescue ship which also crashed, so I have 4 stranded Kerbals.
  9. Hopefully I will have it uploaded today or tomorrow. It will be a complete paint with the yellow interior also painted blue. Just trying to get the interior matched closely and perfect the metallic shine. Also working on a bare metal RV-6.
  10. First Flight paint! Carbon Fiber/Metallic Blue. I will upload as soon as I put some finishing polish on it.
  11. Just for information sake, I have the exact same problem. 0.9.4 will crash anytime in try to extract any livery; 0.7.3 works great. I am running Vista 64, haven't tried it on Win 7 or 8 yet.
  12. I am completely good with adding atmosphere to the simulator, just not gun and guts. I actually like Flight's ability to get out and "walk around"; adds depth and immersion. Taken to the next level, I think that could be a good tool to actually walk the plane and have random "failures" that can be caught during the walk. To me, there is a way to make civilian flight interesting to the masses and to the hardcore, the developer just needs to recognize the challenge and be willing to walk the tight rope.
  13. Ahhh.. was looking in the wrong place. I was looking in the main Flight directory. Yeah, I have the toolkit, still learning how to use it. Just reinstalled Flight yesterday after a year without it. I am a bit behind and have much to learn. Thanks!
  14. Just play GTA or Battlefield... I prefer not to have shooter mixed on the same plate with my civilian simulation. Besides you would be narrowing the scope of landscape down to an area not worth flying around.
  15. I have been searching and cannot find an answer, so if it is somewhere and I overlooked it, I am sorry. I was going to mess around with Flights' paint and realized I cannot find any textures other than the ones that came with the game. Where are the other planes/textures located? I have looked through the entire Flight directory and pak files, but keep coming up empty. Thanks in advance
