If the game is going to take this kind of a turn...

My take on the OP is that he wants more planes and variants, so wants HTC to open their model structure for people to create those new planes. There's also a chance that he thinks the flight model is not what [he thinks] it should be, and wants the ability to "correct the inaccuracies".

You got all that out of....

Optimize the assets the game presents. Open up and allow the community to develop.

Why so serious HT?

May need you to interpret what women are saying.

Due to the OPs inability to communicate well in english..... you have folks dreaming of all sorts of things.

you have to remember this version of Aces High is still new. but I see a lot of new names I've never seen before

and theres a lot more players logging on now and the last 4 months of AH2. even people are fixin their putters so they can play here.

I doubt the other games change because of a single player or a group of players want them to, even when most of them games are free.
I will continue to pay and play AH3 for as long as I can. IT'S the best game in the world.and will get better when all the bugs are worked out.

At what point was AH 1 bug free, you do remember that AH 1 was replaced with AH2 to fix all the bugs in AH1.  AH 3 will never be bug free, just as AH2 was never bug free.

No, AH2 replaced AH1 due to an upgrade in the graphics engine, much like this last upgrade. ANY game/program in the world that is run long enough you will find bugs and issues in. As AH has been around over a dozen years ..... and very few other games come any where near that yes you will find bugs. BUT, HTC has always worked very hard to fix issues that crop up in the game, not so much other companies.

No software is or ever will be bug free.

Depends on the application.  I've never seen an auto-land system that was properly managed, fail.  I've seen many automated systems that were not managed properly fail due to human error.

And why would it need to be properly managed if it didn't have bugs/issues?

It doesn't depend on the application, it depends on how well it is maintained. HTC is ALWAYS working on theirs.

It is his game, but as with most things the market decides. From what I gather from my friends who still play, numbers haven’t gone north as yet. You would have to think that they probably won’t. So if the market decides, the market doesn’t seem to have embraced the change.

There are a lot of dedicated crew who develop aspects of the whole experience, so your point is a bit invalid. But where do you want to be? Aces High is a niche game and only appeals to interested individuals. That’s it. It’s a cottage industry. An Amish quilt game.

The level of control of this BBS also astounds me. But it’s HTC’s as well, so live with it. It is always about control though. If you can live with being controlled, there is peace in the valley.

But I met some really good people pretending to be a WW2 pilot. That’s the reward. Forget about perks and points and base takes and rule 4’s. I met some really articulate, good hearted people. There’s no price on that.

Where the heck have you been? Hope you well sir

Software is totally dependon the application, you need the right software for the job you are automating, right, I've maintained hardware, but never software, as far as software being properly managed, well, there was an airshow a ways back at which Airfrance was showing off an A320 with the autoland system, the pilots failed to properly manage the system , which as I remember flew them into the ground on a botched go-round command.  Human-Error, not a programming error.

That is a bug in the software if it lets you set it to crash.

No, the pilots failed to follow training and procedure and caused the crash because they attempted to try to use the Auto Land function for somethng that it was not designed to do.  Human error.  The software worked as designed.

[icepac]

So the feature that allowed the plane to crash remains to this day?

[Traveler]

So the feature that allowed the plane to crash remains to this day?

On just about every commercial airline. If you take off from an airport that is at sea level instruct the auto-pilot to return to the runway and fly over that runway at fifty feet and fail to tell it to climb to a higher altitud, that air craft will hold that altitud , no matter what. Which is what Airfrance did, pilot error, 
 At the time either pilot could have added thrust and hand flown the aircraft out of the danger. What was heard on the cockpit voive recorder was the sound of someone typing in commands to the auto- pilot.
