MATERIAL DELETED AS IT VIOLATES LOCKHEED MARTIN BETA TESTING LICENSE. USER SUSPENDED.

Now P3D is looking tempting... I'll wait until others test it out and see what the results are.

great times lay ahead for all of us in the flight simulation community:

 

after the flawed FLIGHT, here comes a new challenger

 

XP10.30 versus P3D v2

 

this will be a great fall and christmas :lol:

I would rephrase it with "FSX this is the end my friend" I think that P3D v2 would be more appealing to the FSX community.

 

 

 

 

this will be a great fall and christmas

 

I will agree on this one though!

 

I know P3d in in beta, any idea on the ETA by any chance?

Prepar3D v2.0 brings many exciting updates to the Prepar3D simulation platform

 

Hi

 

Can you please point to where this list originated from? I'm trying to report on this progress and would like to see the source information. I've not been able to locate it at the Prepar3d site yet.

 

Thanks!

+1 Pirata.

 

It's not for me: it looks like Prepar3D v2 is still only for students and professionals, and they have no Linux version.
 

:wink:

that list includes many features I have been waiting for in plane10 from day 1,

 

now it really pays to get the best graphics card money can buy, be it xplane or P3D

 

"and they have no Linux version."

and no MAC either :lol:

 

fundamental difference: P3D is still 32 bit, but that doesn't necessarily have to mean anything. time will tell.

 

the heat is on.

I will definitely switch on the day that "64 bit processing" has been added. If not, I have no real reason to change sims.

This is an automatic message.

 

This topic has been moved from "The X-Plane General Discussions Forum" to "MS FSX Forum". This move has been done for a number of possible reasons.

• The most likely reason is that the post was off topic.
• The topic could also have contained images or a video that were not appropriate to the original forum it was posted in.
• The images might not have been "illustrative" or "explanatory" in nature.
• The topic could have been moved because we deemed it to be more appropriately placed elsewhere.

Please ensure that your posts are "on topic" and contain illustrative images or videos as appropriate. Do not post videos or images just for entertainment purposes anywhere but in the screen shot or video forums. See our image posting rules here.

This message was deliberately posted in the X-Plane forum to provoke. I have moved it here, which will probably still provoke. However, I caution everyone to be very circumspect in their speculation and degree of "heat" in discussion.

 

First things first; what is the source of this information? If I don't have an answer to that, I will close this thread down in short order. No one has seen anything like this on the net that I can see. So, if this is a legitimate road map for V2, I want to know where it was taken from. And, I caution everyone to be very skeptical until we do hear where this document comes from.

 

 

I will definitely switch on the day that "64 bit processing" has been added. If not, I have no real reason to change sims.

 

That is a very good point, "64 bit processing" is the future in my eyes and although p3d v2 is tempting, unless 10.30 is not that big of a change, I won't bother switching sims either, besides I'm not one that plays with two or more, I've always stuck with the one that fits my needs and this time is XP10

It's interesting to see features of other flight simulators, and it's nice to see they'll soon add things we already had in X-Plane 9 like this:

 

"Clouds able to cast shadows (currently in work, not in this beta)"

 

 

With all the features they add for military training (bombs, missiles, guns, countermeasures, etc...), will this become mainly a military simulator ?

Hi Tom,

 

I have located the source:

 

http://www.simflight.de/2013/09/23/prepar3d-v2-0-ist-in-beta/#comments

 

I suspect this info is given to accepted beta testers, which if true, would violate their NDA with LM but that I cannot confirm.  Have found no official source for this disclosure.

 

Clutch

Tom is 100% right. There is no need to try to provoke another debate about X-Plane vs ... whatever. If someone will like P3D v2.0 and it is legal to use it, then he should do so.

 

 

 

MdMax, no need to go into comparison. X-Plane is an extremely steady 64-bit sim. With HDR lighting. Laminar have gone really ahead in technology. 

 

I have about 250 hours in military simulator and I can tell you that the graphics was not its strong point! Neither the flight dynamics! It was 100% like the real thing in procedures! 

LOL....the info is sitll up on the other site that was linked. Nothing like shutting the stable door after the horse has bolted!
