Issue resolved, it was my router,- somehow the NAT was not functioning correctly. I also got a 877 number for Windows LIVE games. Thanks for help. lk

Yes, and also I was able to login via their market place app to d/l my purchased items for MS Flight such as Hawaii Adventure and and aircraft I purchased. Also, can anyone give me e-mail to MS Windows LIVE gaming support,- everywhere I look I end up at dead end (page not found).

All, Today, I have installed Microsoft Flight. After installing, I clicked on LIVE link to login,- I was authenticated and a screen popup came saying it is downloading my profile. After waiting 20 secs or so I got an error message: The live service maybe unavailable or there maybe an issue with your home networking equipment or firewall. I have troubleshooted this problem but cant find a solution. I have forwarded all the ports required for Windows LIVE games and have turned off my firewall and AVG. Still, I receive this message. Any help would be appreciated. My System: Win7 x64

For any of you who were waiting (including me), Flight and ALL its addons are on sale: http://store.steampo....com/sub/15467/ Enjoy. lk

P.S. They released new flight model for the helis. See the updates section.

Helicopters are aero-dynmically unstable, that's why it is hard to fly them. I wrote some comments on the game here: http://forums.x-pilo...k-what-i-found/

All, I have discovered something but some of you may have tried it. Take on Helicopters: http://takeonthegame...ia/screenshots/ Has anyone tried it? There's free demo I will try today. If it is a true heli sim, heck I will buy it and play that. I think they are using same weather engine as in Arma 3, but I could be wrong which looks like it uses Simul weather engine. Any heli pilot who tried please comment on the flight model. -lk Seems avims has some coverage on this here: http://www.avsim.com...light/Helo.html P.S: Looks like the flight model is between arcade and sim.

ATI cards currently have a serious issue with X-Plane that needs to be resolved. I have 3 monitors, ATI 5870 with Triple Head 2 Go, poor frame rates. On avg, no clouds with medium settings I get 15-20 FPS. In summary, don't expect too much unless you get maybe the Nvidia which I don't have.

Looks great! What are FPS in comparison to default Cessna in XPlane?

#1 Weather, real and customizable weather.#2 This one is just my desire: At least one jet or even a larger twing engine prop.

IMHO I would at least have a poll for the aircraft of interest and aircrafts that get most votes are the ones I would work on.Definitely not interested in this new bird,- give me something more current that's used in the real world today for a purpose.

Where's that setting exactly? Are you refering to view setting slider underneath CAT, HAVOC, etc.?The visibility of the horizon should be fixed but for now it means one of 2 things:1. Clouds are moving in2. The earth is flat.-lk

Sad, how come real and customizable weather is not on there, that's number 1 priority in my honest opinion.-lk

Do the clouds actually move in Flight? I haven't observed this but I see it in the video.

No way about MS Flight. Actually, I think it is a great oportunity for some 3rd party developers to get together and come with something. Heck, if my software skills where in computer gaming I would team up with my others and put something together, unfortunately I do e-Commerce and Accounting.Remember, Austin created X-plane up to 5th, or 6th iteration by himself. ;)In conclusion I was hoping everyone would at least +1 on the thought of having a union of developers create something that is better what is currently out there, and maybe, maybe ... probably a wishful thinking.
