Hehe, think we both voted exactly the same Murmur :-)

BTW: Excellent idea!

Nice poll.

Although happier with the present X-Plane than any previous version, I see room for improvement in all the areas mentioned. However, with the continued interest in improving the product by Laminar, there is more effort being put forth than any other affordable alternative. Every time there is an update, things just get better!

I have seen flight simulation evolve from a few lines with gauges to what it is today and am always amazed at it's evolution. X-Plane has evolved from a blurry, non recognizable terrain to a realistic terrain, with aircraft that feel and look like the real thing, in a relatively short period. Considering their evolution in just a fraction of the life of flight simulation in general, I think there is promise of great things.

Realistic and simplified multimonitor support.

Nice poll, everything I have been wishing to see is on the list. I hope they add more default art assets to the WED scenery editor.

How about completed night lighting and regional buildings?

We are all connected..... To each other, biologically...... To the Earth, chemically...... To the rest of the Universe atomically.

Mouse wheel to manipulate knobs and basic VFR flight planner, and more legos to make better airports. Scenery, Golf courses, parks, watertowers, dams, powerplants. autogen regionalized so more plausible. Just really want incremental improvements on all fronts.

I wanted to vote for a PMDG aircraft - then I realized this is still a 2014 vote! :lol:

PMDG's first product for X-Plane shouldn't be too far away now. I'm really looking forward to it

My main wishes for 2014:

1) That they fix the ATC already

2) That they fix the high-altitude scenery rendering

3) (This probably won't happen) That they hire someone to model all the major cities to the same level of detail as the FSX defaults

Multi-monitor support - as in different windows on one graphics adapter.

ATC for VFR flights

Better GPS graphism

SLI/Crossfire possibility (to have multi graphic cards and than to push Graphics at the top).

Better graphism in general (p3D for this is at top !!!)

Snow accumulation would be really cool!

Show the different seasons (Snow on the mountains and airports on Winter....)
