We were referring to just the animations being FSX only.
Once the FSX version is complete & if there are any FS9 users left, I'll consider porting it over.
The Buffalo FS9 port only took 4 days, so i'm 95% sure LGAV will make it into FS9 too. :D

FWIW, I'm onboard for an FS9 version :)

Even a Sandy Bridge can't handle 100% AI in FSX, and any less than 100% AI isn't good enough for me :P :twisted:

Yes George, there are many of us FS9 users left!! This just looks awesome!!

I remember you saying you would consider Prague Ruzyne in the future. Do you think that could be next? Can't wait for the Athens to come through.

Finally Greece airports will come alive in my sim again.

BTW, Athens was a damn good idea and I really like your change in style with giving us updates. This is really cool George.

Oh and uh.. can we go back to the previous forum look?

if there are any FS9 users left
Ha! Plenty!

:D

And no CPU can change that. It's about more than that and let's face it, with FS XI coming, now would be a very stupid moment to make the switch to FSX and invest in it. That time has passed.

You can see that on IVAO, if you check the Statistics about 60% of all pilots use FS9 :P
And I am also in for FS9

Surprising some of you guys I still sticking with FS9 after so long. I always thought once brute CPU power pushed FSX's 10 billion lines of code out of single digit Frame Rates, everyone would upgrade. I hope you hardcore AI guys will be happy with FS9 for 'another' decade ;)
To me, using a 10 year old piece of software is just crazy. I blame FSXs failures. I too stuck with FS9 for a couple of years after FSX came out.

FS9 holds our development back a little bit, so its slightly frustrating. No big deal.
I have noticed a few suborn FS9 guys have recently upgraded tho :)

I don't remember looking at Prague ever. Sure that was me? I knew of someone working on Prague, dunno what happened with it.

I like the new forum, the old one was a little Guns n Ammo, heavy metal for me.

Glad to read/see it "officially" declared...Can we hope for it within the next year or so?

Also, FlyTampa Athens X looks quite nice. However, we haven't seen much of it, yet.... Is there some reason we are only seeing 1 screenshot per thread?


BTW: Like the new forum look! 8)

It's because I'm not comfortable showing off too much until it's complete & looking it's best.
Plus, we work on each sceney solo, so it takes a long time with the high detailed modelling required these days.
We can go back to the old system of showing nothing until near complete if you'd prefer?
