Repoting LIVE from Oshkosh, WI!!!

[Airshow_lover]

Im typing from a laptop on a wireless connection form a dorm room so I've been a bit slow on updates

So, I got to see the FSX exibit today and it was pretty cool! They were previewing the Beta version but still! (pictures to follow)

So some things i learned:

1) FSX will probably be out this october.
2) In multi-player mode, you will have three options, 1. Normal player, 2) Tower mode, 3) co-pilot. now, thats nothing new....but you have to have the Deluxe version to be a tower.
3) No aerodynamic smoke....
4) There will be a Civil Air Patrol Maule.
5) The deluxe version will contain more aircraft and missions.
6) They started working on FSX in Spring of 2003


I know alot more but that will have to wait.

I'm so happy.

You better hurry up with those pictures then.

They started working on FSX in Spring of 2003.

So let me guess, FS2004 was more like an experiment, correct?

Aerodynamic smoke?  ???

[PsychoDiablo]

I think he's referring to the way that smoke is suppose to behaive when wind or fly-by's affect it.

Did you get a chance to try it out?  I'm probably going up this weekend and the first thing I wanted to do was see if I could try FSX.

Oh yeah, a few more things.

1) The Default oshkosh scenery is incredible!
2) They have/will fix the Heli dynamics.
3) i noticed on the Aircraft selection page that there are now thumbnails and not rotating models.
4) in-game, to switch your aircraft, it is know under a sub-folder called "FS obejects" I asked him what else was in the sub-folder but he said I'd have to wait to find out.

Maybe they will provide some boats, cars etc...  ;D
