Does the autopilot in the steam gauge 172 work for you guys? Edit: Strange. The autopilot did not respond to any of the settings I selected but now it works fine. Must've been mods.

It was like this in the alpha/beta and one of the things I thought for sure would be fixed in the release version.

Wow those shots are amazing. I thought SimSavvy was only North America though. When did he release scenery for Africa?

*sigh* Can a moderator change the title of this thread since the product is not out yet? I was digging for my credit card but it turns out it was nothing but an announcement. Thanks, OP. :(

Yes, same here. I finally got fed up and spam blocked them.

I did a fresh install of Windows 8 and I still cannot get the LevelD 767 to run properly at all. Can you do a long flight in it without any issues? It doesn't freeze up on you in flight?

How large (storage wise) are the states in SimSavvy?

Holy smokes, I was not aware of that!

So SimSavvy is now partnered with the MegaScenery people? His package is no longer for sale? I guess that's what I get for not getting it sooner and now we're stuck with Megascenery and for the price of SimSavvy (and a hard drive) you'll be lucky to buy a state or two versus all of NA before joining with Megascenery.

For those of you running Windows8, are there any compatibility issues with the MD-11?

I haven't noticed a change an increase or decrease in performance coming from Win 7 but I will caution others out there that you may run into compatibility issues with some of your addons. Specifically, the Level D 767 and the Eaglesoft Cirrus SR22 won't run with Windows 8. On the Level D forums the canned response is 'Windows 8 is not supported' and judging from the feedback who knows when or if it will get a patch to run on Windows 8. Such a shame as it's one of my all time favorite addons but Win8 has grown on me and I've changed my mind about going back to Win7. With regards to the Eaglesoft Cirrus, that's the only Eaglesoft product I own so I can't speak for their other planes when it comes to Win 8 compatibility.

Any other Win8 users here have trouble running FSX with either the Level D 767 or Eaglesoft's Cirrus SR22? I ask because I'm going down my list of addons that are giving me trouble and so far those 2 aren't playing nicely for me. For some reason they both cause FSX to freeze up for several seconds at a time whether I'm flying or clicking through the menus. Eventually FSX will crash altogether. If I remove them then FSX will run just fine. I'm not sure wha to make of this problem as I never had this issue under Win7. Edit: this is with a fresh install of Windows 8.

I returned my copy to Flight1. I'll probably pick it up later sometime down the road after a service pack has been released but so far it's been a big disappointment for me with regards to bugs and performance. Flight1 has a 30 day refund policy so it won't hurt to buy and try it.

Blurry textures here as well with 4096 enabled.

Hey is there a way to make the yoke disappear as I do all of my flying from the VC and yokes just get in my way.
