2012 - The volume of FS9 daily downloads still amazes.

has the FS9 forum turned into an FSX vs. FS9 forum? That's all I see in here

You need new glasses.

Not being a C++ programmer I'd never thought about it, but that must absolutely drive a gauge programmer batty. I'll bet your "trusted" list in the FSX.cfg is a mile long :)Jim

Hey, you're right, I should check it. Each time I compile a gauge, it is considered by FSX as a new one, so the list is certainly very, very long.The idea of managing security is good, but MS should have implemented a way to disable it for the C/C++ gauge developers.

Since all the WOAI packages are listed under FS2004 but work in FSX as well, and since the hot downloads page consists of mainly AI packages, it would seem to me that the suggestion that more development is taking place for FS9 than FSX is flawed, but of course that's just my opinion... :)Jim

Many "so called" FSX addons, are infact FS9 files that also happens to work in FSX. Still today, not many FSX native files are infact presented in the library compared to FS9 native files. :( Edited January 31, 2012 by Staffan

A vaguely serious question... I had FS9 when it came out and gave it to the old man when I moved to FSX on something that could more or less run it. Is FS9 still maybe going to be found in bargin bins? Mainly, I want to stooge around in a lot of the work already out there with the settings maxed - old propliners and what not. I see a lot of FSX payware out there and really doubt it's up to much. The well made stuff is really good... but there is a lot of mediocre to average that just doesn't seem worth it.Also, I've quite like to play around with repaints, just to have a go. Might lead to something more inventive if I get my head around it. Seems all too complex in little brother, and likely to be impossible in the yet to be released cousin.Mike

FS2004 is still available at places like Amazon, AFAIK. But a quick search there for FS2004 only turns up 8 new copies left, so you better hurry. :)And us propliner folks are still going strong in FS9. :)

You can also try eBay and Craigslist for copies of FS 9... I found two of them on CL (1 of them had the tin) and paid $15.00 for both, and in great condition!Looks like the FS 9 supply fizzled out at the Office Stores (Office Depot, OfficeMax, Staples) but they still have a few copies of FS 2002!!Slightly off topic, but has anyone tried the "Howard's Mix" enhancement package for FS 9? Curious if it really makes a difference...Alan :(
