The Next Generation Flight Simulator SIM-Posium is OPEN

Postby srborick » Mon May 11, 2015 3:55 pm

May 11th, 2015 – A new flight simulator community website has been completed and is now officially open.

http://www.nexgenflightsim.com

The website, dubbed “the Next Generation Flight Simulator SIM-Posium opens its doors to all flight simulator enthusiasts and the general public for the purpose of discussing the future of consumer oriented flight simulation and the probability of creating a community driven next generation flight simulator.

It is the goal of the SIM-Posium to move the community towards establishing the criteria of a next generation flight simulator, the discovery of an appropriate 3D platform for development, the gathering of talented individuals whose expertise (whether through education or experience) can be utilized for the creation and development of a next generation flight simulator, as well as establishing the general consensus of the community towards using a CrowdFunding Campaign for the purposes of raising the necessary funds.

The use of traditional forum settings as well as member submitted articles, comments, surveys, polls, voting and other website features will be used to obtain a consensus as to the overall direction that should be taken when considering the development of a next generation flight simulator.

In addition members will have access to tools providing the ability to collaborate on a Group / Team basis.

The NGFS SIM-Posium organizer, Stephen Borick - a long time flight simulator enthusiast - has set a time frame for the SIM-Posium as a minimal period of six months, which he hopes will be sufficient time to determine the "WILL" of the flight simulator community and their commitment towards achieving the goal of creating a next generation flight simulator.

Everyone is invited to participate in this 1st online Next Generation Flight Simulator SIM-Posium. Your input will be invaluable.

You can visit the site and read all of the information available, but if you want to be an active participant your registration is required. You can visit and register by visiting the site at http://www.nexgenflightsim.com

Impresive, I went through the videos & better than Google Earth. I doubt my venerable Lap will handle something like this, it does not even handle FSX. But very nice videos, something to dream for the future :violin: :violin: :violin:

Quite impressive, lets see how it actually turns out. I am suspecting that with the graphics, we will be requiring an upgrade or two......

1. Captain, if the problem is not entered into the technical logbook.........then the aircraft does not have a problem.
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.

Its a funny old do, but when I look at those videos, I cant help thinking of Playstation, and X-Box Video games, rather than regular Cessna 152, Microlight, etc, aircraft videos on You-Tube.... :roll: ....

A very long way to go before the Flight Sims matches up to the real stuff appearing down below!

What we see on the "Flight Sims" is all in the mind!

This really is very very exciting. We need to get a next generation flight sim going and it looks like these are the people that will do it. I will gladly find the money to buy a new high-perf 'puter to run this Sim when it finally hits the market. Good luck to these forward-looking Sim designers. I can hardly wait.
