I was reading a review of this from PC Pilot. they are saying that there will be vehicles in this FS world. i wouldn't say that to fast. on that we need to wait and see  ;)


I wouldn't be surprised if M$ did impliment that to FS. If you look at the screenshots, one of them clearly shows cars and trucks on the improved roadways. However, no one knows if they move like AI or not. Well, maybe not like AI, most likely macro based. I've seen one scenery addon that used macro for animated car traffic. I think I found it at AvSim. I'm not sure if it was for FS2k2 or FS9.

I have one of those installed.  It has a verry busy road just under the approach path to the single runway.  It is an island airport if I remember correctly.

The visual impact of that stream of cars as you are son short final is AMAZING!!!  It changes everything.

best,

Was this true it would mean they'd somewhat care about what we think.

Past experiences tell me it doesn't work that way with them. :-/

You'd be surprised.   I was surprised to see the FFDS site linked to from one of the tech bloggers from Microsoft.  There has been at least one Simviation tutorial linked to/mentioned by the Microsoft tech bloggers

That they cannot answer/reveal (in detail) what they're really considering or not, and where they get the ideas from, is another matter.

We have all seen how Microsoft has re-emphasized the fact that they are committed to supporting 3rd party content providers.  This allows them to concentrate on the basics+enhancements, instead of having to provide the details (cover all periods and types of planes, etc)

I think we are getting a bit ahead of ourselves here. How often has MicroSoft given details about a piece of software only to have it "changed" at the last minute.  The promises that where bantered about for XP made the mouth water!! In comparison FSX, I would think is a relativly simple  program (I may be wrong, I await the corrections that I am sure will come.).  It will be very interesting to look back at what has been posted here a few days after the release of FSX and compare what was said and what we get..  Remember, MS said no more Blue Screen of Death with XP.............had it 3 times last week.

2. And, if you have time to write the fault on a napkin and attach to it to the yoke.........you have time to write it in the tech log....see point 1.
