I am very sorry for not being present on the forum for some time. I deeply regret that I am no longer able to provide any further support for LINDA. This includes commenting online, providing solutions, future updates or answering direct messages. Users are asked to offer advice to any posts. Existing downloads will remain available for present but none will be updated. My apologies to all loyal users over past years - I have enjoyed supporting the flight simulations community.

Thank you for offering your time and services to the hobby. Your work has helped me enjoy flight sim, and I hope you enjoy whatever you plan on doing next in your life.

Many thanks Andrew for the time you spent on this superb software Linda.
I wish you the best for future.
Regards from France 🥰

Thanks Andrew i always got my home built panels to work thanks to LINDA.

Kind regards Brian

many thanks Andrew for all the hard work you did...LINDA sure made flightsim so much more enjoyable

Thanks for all the hard work, and hope good future to you.

That’s a real shame. Hope everything is ok for you.

Thanks for Linda, it really is a great piece of software.

All the best in the future.

Thanks for the many years of support.

 

Is there any scope for another developer picking up the maintenance in the future?

Pete & John Dowson from FSUIPC would be ideal.

I'll leave you to tell Pete.

There will be no one taking over support of LINDA. Certainly the FSUIPC developer won’t be interested.

The LUA code is open sourced and anyone can contribute to updates or new modules. The core UI code requires specialist skills, tools and knowledge.

I'd certainly be interested in at least a potential conversation about it at some point - I'm a recently retired C/C++ dev (I'm assuming that's what it's been built in - if it's VB I'd unfortunately be lost). I spent most of my career in embedded systems development, but the last few before stopping working professionally involved Lua as a Train Simulator addon developer, even if nothing comes of it, it would be a shame if bug-fixing/maintenance ceased for such a useful tool.

 

Obviously the important thing is this though: At the end of the day it's your code, and your decision what happens - and I respect that above all else.
