Has anyone heard about Geoglyph ? It looks very promising. There's a very nice website describing what it is.

You sure you got the name right? If I Google "Geoglyph flight simulator" this thread is the first result that comes up. Got a link?

Is it http://www.gefs-online.com?

Uses the GeoGlyph `world machine` and the Unigine game engine

Superb visual tools - but are they representative of the things we don't see like weather and flight dynamics? Be fun finding out, if they have the budget to complete the project and a Route To Market.

 

Certainly it's got more legs than the tired old Outerra project.

Whow!  Almost spilled my morning coffee :-)

I think the difference here is that they aren't a platform developer looking for an application, they are working with the platform to develop a specific application - a flight sim. 

 

The helo/ground interaction video is stunning.

Indeed!!!!!!!

Woooooaaa!!! When did this all start ?? These guys definitely need some advertising. It looks very promising  

Very impressive! However, it looks like this is currently just being developed for commercial flight simulators. Some of the videos were made at I/ITSEC which is probably the world's largest flight simulation industry conference and exhibition. I wouldn't hold your breath over an entertainment version. I worked with full-size commercial flight sims for a few years and we would have killed for graphics like that.

Wow, out of the blue?! This looks nifty.

They are NOT building off of the old FSX. This is all new stuff. Definitly worth following the development. This looks like our future.

It sure does! But the question is, who's behind this project? I mean, I've read the "who are we" section of their page and it says that they are "us" the flight sim community. Of course they are, but we want more info.. I might seem a bit too eager. But we've been waiting ages for a sim as beautiful as this. And out of nowhere it just appears like that? 

Just like hungry dogs chasing a bone!

Yup, it looks quite impressive, proof of concept?

Geoglyph overs a  collection of 60 macros and devices for World Machine LLC.  World Machine isn't a flight simulator -  it's a "procedural terrain creation, simulation" .
