How do I know what mate? That the bloke aircraft suffered a WASM crash? Because its on the video....... I don't have a working version of it (although nor it seems, does the bloke doing the video!).

Here's another one....complete with a WASM crash ....

I think you're right, the rate of new feature introductions has dramatically slowed and I suspect we're not going to see any significant platform/performance improvements in this iteration of the game. Perhaps 2028 (or whatever comes next) will bring bigger changes.

After the botched launch (which to their credit they acknowledged), Jorg indicated the first few SU would be about bug fixing. No issues - That was the right call. But after 6 (soon 7) sim updates, I reckon its time to actually start putting some meat on the bone and adding features, improving performance or expanding the sim. I realize that we may see further features as SU7 progresses, but this initial list is really just.... meh.... Asobo if you're out of ideas about what to do next, go read the wishlist thread on your forums.

Thanks for the response/update Steve - Good to seem the programs ongoing development and growth. I just signed up to OnAir (which is a small subscription fee - not everyones cup of tea) that has what appears to be a reasonably deep aircraft maintenance/fleet management component. Might be able to leverage some ideas from there....although I'm sure you've one your own market research.

I do admire their persistance, but the progress made with AI traffic and liveries is actually laughably embarrasing for them. Jorg has been talking about seeking permissions from airlines since the launch of 2020. Sounds like they just got Lufthansa....amazing.... that takes the total number of airlines with accurate paints in the base sim to almost a dozen (if even that). Thank God we have FSLTL and AIG...... if we were waiting in Microsoft to provide liveries it would never occur.

Hmm, I do own SLC and all in all its a pretty good bit of software, although to be honest I mostly just use it for the cabin announcements. That said, I'm not sure I see the draw card to paying another $34USD for what essentially seems like a basic route generator. The fleet management component seems basic at best, there doesn't appear to be much "career" mode and its not immediately clear where the routes that you are presented with are drawn from (i.e. are they like APLV2 or OnAir where they are updated from real work schedules). Thanks for posting tho @pete_auau.

Interesting to see how this compares or sets itself apart from BATC and SayIntentions who have been developing their respective software for years now......

I agree. I've got both and switch between them, but the leaps that have been made by SI over the past six months are amazing. I find the ATC far more realistic than BATC which is great, but the other features that SI are adding are also really good and being further developed. Given SI is subscription based, I expect this to be the case. If you don't want a subscription model then BATC is still pretty good.

Well why dont you walk on over to the PMDG forums and ask them if they'll undertake the three minutes of work to make it compatible? Its got nothing to do with inibuilds who have actually advanced the simulator by allowing multi jet ways..... why do you feel it would be their job to make PMDG aircraft compatible??

Hmmmmm..noting their apparent distain for GSX and their complete unwillingness to embrace it.........do you expect PMDG will :) Seriously, appreciate the continuous updates and can't wait for multiple jetways.....any chance you can give us a hint how far away that might be?

Yeah to be honest they both look pretty average - And I don't actually see any difference which leads me to think that the former argument is true - That TLOD just increases the draw distance clarity and anything under the aircraft (or camera) is going to be repreented the same.

I for one would love to beleive this. How about some screen shots nice and close to the ground, around 500 feet. If you're looking for a location, I'd suggest the northern side of EGLL..... The buildings there are a melted mess.

Thanks for clarifying, learnt something new today!

I don't believe that is correct. I'm pretty sure that parking will be, as was said above, based on the airlines codes the the scenery developer did (or lilely did not) add into the scenery when they created it. There are no aircraft codes in the default scenery. Happy to be wrong, but pretty sure thats the case. Its one of the reasons I actually prefer SayIntentions - Their TaxiTuner tool allows users to create fully tweaked airports including gate assignments.
