December 22, 201411 yr Someone from another forum wrote CaptainSim an email and asked whether P3D products will be included in the sale. They will not! What a shame. And honestly, I don't understand the logic. They don't have to sell them for 9.99 but no discount at all on the P3D products? What a nonsense sales strategy is this? Just proves the point that a lot of FS developers are good programmers but really bad business people... [email protected] ∣ Asus ROG Strix B650E-E ∣ 64Gb@6000MT ∣ NVidia 5090 FE
December 22, 201411 yr Yup! in just a couple of days =) Went to purchase the L1011 and B777 base packs within the prescribed time and the cart listed them as 29.99 each, how do you get the 9.99 discount.

December 22, 201411 yr December 23rd. If you live in North America you can try again at 7pm EST. Live in Australia and it's already the 23rd - forgot time mentioned was UTC not local time, thanks for reminding me.
December 22, 201411 yr Live in Australia and it's already the 23rd - forgot time mentioned was UTC not local time, thanks for reminding me. Guess you will be enjoying your purchase at around lunchtime then! Mark CYYZ
December 22, 201411 yr Guess you will be enjoying your purchase at around lunchtime then! Got that right, I'll get the jump on the rest of the excited simmers.

Just proves the point that a lot of FS developers are good programmers but really bad business people... What a pity as I might have gone for the P3D one,even though I purchased the FSX version. The VC looks a bit pale in comparision to the PMDG one though,and the checklist has a very awkward interface (as Rob already pointed out).

December 23, 201411 yr A couple of minor tweaks/suggestions for new 1011 pilots: First and foremost, Paul Tally's V-One addon is indispensable as usual. DLID=185265 Next up, if you do not want to hear the APU sounds from the VC, navigate to "Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Captain_Sim\1011" and open the sound.ini. Search for the following three entries (they are grouped together): [sound.627] ;APU start File=apu_start.wav Id=3700002 Volume=0 [sound.628] ;APU stop File=apu_stop.wav Id=3700003 Volume=0 [sound.629] ;APU on File=apu_on.wav Id=3700004 Volume=0 Set Volume=0 for all 3 as I have above. Finally, I really do recommend adding the TSS L1011 soundset. I'm not normally one to pay much attention to sounds but the TSS set really does add a lot. Yes, it does add to the total cost but I do believe it is worth it. Have fun ! :smile: Regards,Brian Doney
December 23, 201411 yr It's a shame they excluded the P3D stuff, I would have bought the L1011 if they had included it. Maybe next year.

December 23, 201411 yr Really annoyed P3d aircraft are not on sale at €9.99. Where's the logic? I had two spaces ready in hanger. Discrimination!

Is the V-one gauge supposed to have a clickspot on tacked on to the Captain sim popup like it does on the 727 ? The guage works fine for me but only if I press F7. Those sounds are very tempting....hoping for a sale at one of the vendors (even though they are not that expensive to begin with). **Edit** disregard, the V-One gauge is working properly now.
