Lots has changed! for lighting effects for example it is required to calculate the amount of lumen for lighting so the light reflect correctly on PBR material while adjusting a different value in an old metrics so the lights reflects correctly on non PBR materials.

The entire effect files format changed too, colors, etc. so I have to re-work all these. I decided I don't want to charge my customers to migrate since my product was released less than a year ago and therefore I wish my customers to feel their investment is worth it and my company is behind them.

Seriously we can't win.. if we charge people complain.. if we don't charge then it is also a negative.. 

What we do? lol

Put a Donate button on your site. I will donate when migrating.

To have this you need either improved or new engines..

And I don’t care which ones they are : it looks stunning ! 😎

 

 Question of definition.  These are not, at prima facie, new core engines but new visual engines.And I care that makes a lot of difference when you fly the aircraft I fly.  Again we'll see in the sim. I hope for the best and be wrong..

It's planed to release Tuesday.  It's likely not to be delayed due to all the negative comments.  Those who like it will buy it, those who don't won't.  After Tuesday, folks who have it should be able to make informed comments about it.  Those who didn't buy will be waiting to jump in to brag about how they were right all along.  This really is an interesting hobby with an interesting group of folks.

Regardless of which way you slice the cake, they are improvements of significance.

Well with this new water, I'd be happy just sitting on the dock of the bay, wasting time and watching my Beaver bob up and down in the water.

Sorry to be pedandic but with the new water I hope to experience a takeoff on the step and feel the drag and turbulences of water at takeoff and landing on my big floats. To be able to assess the direction of the wind looking at the waves would also be nice 😉 !

I do not deny that and hope that the sim will confirm them when released.

Interesting reaction... there was a lot of excitement over 2->3, and 3->4, but v5 seems to have a rather lacklustre response.. In reality, they've added a lot of things to the sim that would normally have caused huge excitement here on Avsim had it been announced this time last year.... Is this the MFS effect?

 

In my case it's MFS + XP11 Vulkan effect. Think about all the excellent add-ons that we have both payware and freeware and the P3D v5 video is released in vanilla form without any vibrancy or enthusiasm. That's exactly what they'll get from me.

The difference is, you have used V4.. 

I have used MSFS..

S.

MSFS didn't stay long on my machine I can tell you.

Sure is...because NOW...a user has a modern, feature-rich, world 'virtual' choice...and that pretty much spells my take...why spend one dollar more, for (from their very own Teaser Trailer what looks to my eyes, like----> v4.6, when I can fly v4.5 (bought and paid for...) ...and going forward, have every new dollar invested...with a sim,  built from the ground up, with 2020 technology and feature-viewpoint,....so Tony...for myself...and I only speak (type) for myself...I don't want to throw at this juncture,  'good money' after 'bad'.....and if, and if TRULY,  what I see on MSFS2020 teaser vids yet in the Alpha channel is even close to the reality upon release.   ( I am being very open and honest here...) I probably would not bother firing up P3D v4.5 at all...as I wouldn't be able to stomach the totally synthetic look of ground and world textures...and their endless tile repeating pattern,  as in Orbx Global.   So....again...for myself...I've made the choice to break clean with the P3D franchise...and any future dollars leaving my wallet....will be in the year 2020, and not 2012, on a V series v5.0  P3D life support....   Myself, anyways...

If you don't like the heat, don't go to the kitchen 😋 !  

Seriously now, thanks for your response,  I appreciate a freebie like any other person.  I say thank you and take it. I would be an hypocrite to say otherwise. But I have never been in the camp of those who demean devs when they ask to pay for an upgrade or a whole new price, rather the contrary, I am quite aggravated by the freeloader mentality which is pervasive to this hobby. I am old and keep on thinking that any work deserves a salary. 

What you do ? I don't know, your bottom line may be a good adviser on that 😄 !

Or it's called marketing.

Remember when REX was calling its products volumetric? And then noise generated clouds arrived and we actually saw the difference?
Time will tell the more content from users is shown, of course 🙂

You only have to look at existing video representations of these products in other applications to see that they are significantly different from what we currently have.

I hope they release more trailers

I am not saying things didn't improve, especially with TrueSky (which we already saw in FlightSimWorld). It's the conclusions users take that i do not trust 🙂
