Crash is confirmed in Linux also

Just because we belong to a minority does not mean we are not allowed to have an opinion and comment on it.

Hmm no linux support = no PMDG support. Ludicrous when x-plane runs natively in Linux. Oh well, lucky for us that devs who can't be bothered with Linux are very few in number. Regards Pete

Began using xplane with version 8. In fact the box is still under my computer desk. Pete

What an aircraft!!! I might just force myself to splash out on this though it might take months of learning just to complete a flight. I think the announcement on it's own probably lifted xplane sales lol Regards

<quote> So in a preliminary version using WED, I had to create a huge taxiway of grass in order to overlay the unwanted textures. Perhaps those grassy areas would better be displayed in OSM/W2XP? <unquote> Was thinking maybe an exclusion zone in WED might be a better option.

I have a new internet connection in two or three weeks which will give me the extra I needed to contribute in this area. Regards

Top job Janov. Very well done.

The airports come with Xplane so you do not need to download. They don't interact as your stuff in customised scenery takes preference. The gateway is where you can upload your airports provided they abide by some basic rules and in the long term it will provide a much more populated Xplane. So feel free to enhance a couple of your local aiports and upload

I think maybe its not much of a performance change as a vast improvement in memory intensive situations. Regards

Very useful contribution. Thankyou Regards

I really do completely fail to understand UI complaints. I came from many years of using MSFS but jumped ship when I witnessed the FSX release fiasco. I can say that I have never given a thought about the UI. I just gradually learned where everything is without giving any thoughts such as this should be here, that should be there etc;. I do know that it is a very powerful interface, giving easy access to a huge amount of parameters. Regards

One thing to note is your use of opensceneryx. For your airport to be accepted it must use only the default stuff found in WED which means your airport will be rejected because of it's use of opensceneryx. Regards

Hi anthony I submitted an airport also and it is good to see them start appearing in xplane. I have some more to submit but I will hold as Ben asked until the new WED and the website is up. What is especially good to see is the number of airports with their associated buildings, equipment etc; starting to appear (a few hundred now). The barren airports was a thing that turned a number of would be xplane users away. I think that this upgrading of airports will accelerate now that the website and the new WED are close to coming online. I'd like to see a bit more variety in the building objects in WED though, and a few more different textures would be nice. Regards

I guess we are all very different in what want and look for. What makes it unusable for you, I never even noticed. lol
