Agree? Disagree?

In multi just choose an airfield to launch from and coordinate a mission (I'm a mud mover at heart) and perform your own recon.

Until your idea becomes reality that is.

Agree.

Getting people to pay for a "standard" feature might be a hard sell to some. Possibly you are referring to setting up such missions via the Zone? That would be a new twist --- since I do the others via direct TCP/IP.....?

The file checker is the big one. Before someone mentions the lines you can change in the one file there, that is far from ideal since it will flag you if you even have one AI plane set to be flyable. It wouldn't even have to be like the one in EAW where a game won't launch with mismatched data, just maybe a red light green light so you can see where everyone stands, and if the red lights don't bother you then hit it.

As far as it being a hard sell, think about it, how many people here have shelled out 20-odd dollars for clouds. MP that was secure and could get squadrons flying real missions is worth at least that, to them at least.

Chocks away, back soon old chap and hey, stay away from Mrs Bilko or I'll give you a damn good thrashing with my STICK

Enlève les cales! Je reviens tout de suite mon vieux; et surtout, tu restes bien loin de Mme Bilko ou je te filerai une bonne grosse rouste avec mon BÂTON.

Zwolnic bloki, wracam niedlugo stary pryku i hej, zostaw Pania Bilko w spokoju albo dam ci dobry wycisk moim KIJKIEM.

I went to the zone last night and could not belive when somebody asked if he could fly his Harrier...I could'nt stop laughing.

Yeah only if I can implement my radar guided 50's

And B17-II no multi at all??

I don't get it.

What's up with the MS Flight Sim community???

This sim in particular, has the capability to be modified in numerous was, benefiting everyone, yet most of the mods available are for "sale" instead of for "download".

You want better "clouds"? pay up
You want to change skins? pay up
Now you want coop-multiplay? Pay up soon...

What's up with that? I don't get it.

I create mods. I've created mods for several sims. The mods have taken MUCH of my free time. They are available for download for free.

I've even been approached by a fellow "simmer" asking me to create a personalized aircraft "skin" AND saying that it would be worth $100.00 (One hundred U.S. dollars) to him. I immediately told this person that I would/could never accept money from anyone for the mods (not only technically illegal, I believe, but not my style as well.)

My payment? a simple email letting me know how much they've enjoyed/appreciated the mods. Emails from actual veteran pilots have been priceless. Emails from the sons/daughters of these vets; priceless.

Just check out the European Air War community (EAW) for the perfect example of what I'm talking about.
