Is it just me or a perfect addon would add tire marks also on the white lines and not only on the asphalt, leaving the white lines brand new?

Good to see a company do the right thing.  At the same time waiting with bated breath. (whatever that means)

I strongly disagree:

All their customers were waiting for a yesterday release which didn't happen.

I understand some bugs may cause delays but they clearly new that at least a few days ago, and they could have been communicated at that moment.

This is called respect, and I suspect they didn't thought of that, leaving us waiting like idiots.

Agree with Noooch... the previous delay (up to June 26) was acceptable.  The failure to announce another delay while customers waited anxiously for the expected release is not acceptable for a payware developer..  Having left a "bad taste" in my mouth, I have now purchased and installed REX textures while UNINSTALLING Zinertek's.  Unfortunately for Zinertek, the thousands of undecided customers will have a better insight to their decision. 

Just purchased this a few days ago, I wasn’t aware that a version 2.0 was imminent so doesn’t really bother me that it’s been pushed back.

Apparently the blame for that phrase lays at Shakespeare's feet (which poses the question, why at his feet)?

A few more days wait, not going to hyperventilate over that.

That was not my point.

"Bate" here is an archaic variation of "abate" -- so, "abated breath", meaning either your breath is being held or you are breathless with anticipation.

(And thank you for not saying "baited breath" 😄 )

And thank YOU for not saying "begs the question".  😂

I have no immediate answer on the origin of that particular idiom, though.

Maybe they were working on a fix right up until the last minute but couldn't figure it out so had to call it. I'd give them the benefit of the doubt!

Me neither but they seem to have:

There's a segment of the population that would be enormously relieved if phrases like a question that begs an answer replaced the usual begs the question uses. These are people who think using beg the question to mean "to cause someone to ask a specified question as a reaction or response" is completely and thoroughly wrong. There are probably more of these people than you think, and they are judging the rest of us.

So that's where beg the question comes from, but all this, ahem, begs the question of what you should do with all this knowledge about the phrase. Liberman recommends that people avoid it altogether (but also "cultivate an attitude of serene detachment in the face of its use by others").

Hehe.   Thanks, but I was referring to laying something at the feet of someone.  🙂   I'm familiar with the origin of "begging the question", and with great effort have managed to make myself mostly not care when people misuse it.   But it takes self control.  😄

Hi Everyone,

Just wanted to let you know that 'Enhanced Airport Graphics Version 2.0' will come out tomorrow at SimMarket and FlightSim.com Store.

Marketplace version will come out on Thursday.

This will be a free upgrade to all existing customers. 

Thank you all for your patience in waiting for this new version. We know it got delayed a few times but it was because we did a major overhaul to all airport textures.

I think many of you will be pleased with how much better this new version will be.
