How I Know P3D 4.0 Is Just Around The Corner

[Richard McDonald Woods 168]

I have had an interest in developing SimDirector scenarios for some time. But others' experiences have shown that it is very difficult to use. Its development has obviously cost LM a great deal of $, so I suspect we will see major improvements in its usability although only partially aimed at us. Kevin is quite correct to point out (yet again!) that our sim segment is a very small element of the whole LM picture.

We are about to be shown a major advancement in P3D functionality and I am excited waiting for it!

And they just closed the URL that they uploads Background, Logos etc. It's not accessable now

If we mix the website and the P3Dv4 logo...

Looks great, isn't it? (But sorry for wrong size of background.jpg)

that's priceless. I f I had thought of that I would have posted it and announced "THEY JUST RELEASES IT!"

That would have sent everyone into a tail spin.

Quite presumptuous of you Josh and you are getting caught up in hair splits which are unnecessary.

My point stands

In hindsight, that was presumptuous of me and I apologize.

They bought the rights to an entertainment title and turned it into a training/educational title for much bigger purposes

That's the thing: they didn't buy an entertainment title; they bought ESP, i.e., the commercial side of FSX. DTG bought the entertainment part. This is why LM can't legally market P3D as an entertainment product. At least that's how I understand things.

Anyone privy to Microsoft's and Lockheed's contract?

If I was wanting to sell a simulator as a professional training instrument, I certainly wouldn't want it associated as an entertainment product.

OK - enough is enough. Was hoping someone would get this back on track.

 

Time to move on -
