I'm sorry to have to announce this, but with effect from the next version of FSUIPC and WideFS both will cease being freeware. This is following the failure of the donations scheme, which will therefore be closed.
Arrangements are being made for two scenarios:
1. Full user facilities and support for all FSUIPC applications, available to all users who pay for full FSUIPC registration.
2. Individual application accreditation which would be paid for by the developer or supplier of the application. This would give users full use of the application with FSUIPC, but there would be no user facilities in the latter unless opted for via scenario 1 above.
Freeware applications will be subject to special arrangements and accreditation -- which may possibly expire and need renewing, by the author, from time to time (maybe annually, maybe longer).
WideFS will only work upon payment and registration. My other modules and programs will remain freeware for the time being.
Pricing and other details will be published when finalised, but will be very reasonable. Folks who have donated reasonable amounts already will get free registrations, but these will have to be applied for within a certain time (maybe three months).
Developers and suppliers needing further details should write to me forthwith and I will send them a full explanatory document. Write to
petedowson@btconnect.com. Note that this email address is ONLY for specific developer support. All normal support requests must still come to the forum.
PLEASE NOTE. There are currently no more details available for end users. Only developers need to start to become involved now. The software is not yet finished. No licenses nor access keys will be issued before the software itself is finalised, and that will be something like the end of July or during August 2003.
Thank you,
Regards,
Pete Dowson
If you don'y buy...don't whine about not getting payware quality.

Nobody forces you to purchase...the sim does come with planes after all!
If you don't want to pay you must NEVER ask for a designer to design a plane. By asking you are demonstrating a demand...demand is what payware designers are there for. Hobbyists build what they like.
i didn't see there was a new payware forum..
can one you mods move it there? thanks, sorry for the hassle
