I only wish that Hitech would be supportive/give insight/updates as to what him and his team are doing more often.

I think that Oleg maddox Has been the model of what a Developer needs to live up to now. The 1C team (IL2) has by far shown the most up to date, on going support for a flight simulation product thus far.  

Hitech, could you possibly do what the UBI/1C maddox team are doing with their system of updating the masses of on going development?

I am sure that you already are aware, but for those who are not; A system of updating "whats cooking over in the development side of things" so to say, could be accomplished every Friday and then posted with screen shots, ideas, gameplay progress etc as done in IL2.

Not only does a consistant weekly update of development progress strengthen the current customer base, it also brings in more to look forward to whats in store the next time an update is posted.  It really leaves out alot of... "when is it comming out", or "what have you guys been doing" type of questions etc...




:cool:

I like the part where Oleg stated that he was was going to ditch the xenophobic soviet propaganda flight data that he used and correct them to the standards that HiTech and his crew used,,,the real thing.  But living in a society built on disinformation that may not happen.

It is hilarious that you actually think that because something isn't "American" it must not be factual.  

Tell me ygsmilo, have you always been as misinformed/ignorant as you seem to come across, or have you just started working on it?

Run along now, play baseball and eat some good'ole american apple pie now.   :rolleyes:

Quick Milo!

Get him in the fish locker!

If they see him, you're going to get tagged for taking one under the legal length limit!

Sure you don't want to throw that minnow back?

Well there was nothing here 2 1/2 years ago.

We've come along way from there.

Ya know 28sweep, you could be America's answer to its farming problems - a perpetual supply of BS to fertilize the crops with :D

My wish list starts with multiple monitor support. Screens seem to be topping out at 1600x1200 or so and 19" monitors are cheap (£100 now). I don't see super-massive high resolution LCD displays being cheaply available in the timeframe. I'd like to have things like the map, the chat bar etc on one monitor and AH on at least one other, preferably three (front, left, and right) others. Anything to help my SA. Imagine your 4 GHz AMD Opteron driving all this. You can do it in MSFS2002 and Matrox says it works in MSCFS3. This will probably require a rewrite of the graphics engine, though.

I would like to see the graphics engine updated to allow better terrain and a higher polygon count. The nicer the view the better. Someone mentioned flying under a bridge: wouldn't it be cool if you dropped a bridge and a GV  or train driving over fell off? Or were underneath and damaged by falling masonry.

Next on my list is tightening up the network code: requiring so many ports to be open is, to me as an IT professional, inelegant.

But uppermost on my list is MORE FUN.

Toad and Ygsmilo,  you can't deny the level of interaction that HTC has with it's customer base as compared to Oleg and IL2 now can you?   :rolleyes:


Next time, instead of casting for fish, come with an answer rather than empty dribble. No need to type when you Don't have anything to actually say.  ;)

Multimonitors is so 20th century, get with the program ...

(btw I believe AH would work natively as the tracker operates as a Directinput device and AH allows directinput mapping to view inputs).
