flymo, I'm surprised at you after all the in-depth discussion that has appeared on this board. Obviously gone right over your head, so don't blame anyone else  ???

flymo,

A rather uncalled for and VERY insulting remark.

And just because folks are using the software - and, yes enjoying it (and I'm one of those) - it doesn't mean that the problems have gone away.

I did a flight out of one of my favourite little airports today (Le Touquet-Paris Plage in northern France) and lo and behold, same mesh problem there too. Rocky terrain blocking the river right next door to the airfield same as the other areas I've highlighted.

So unless I can be convinced otherwise, my conclusion is that mesh errors are pretty widespread and it ain't the job of the freeware community to clean up the mess as a few people have suggested.

Third party designers enhance, not correct. That's the job of the original designers, especially when they made such a big noise (and selling point) of the new, enhanced mesh.

BTW flymo, did anyone say it was your own stupidity when you lost your aircraft, etc as you outlined in another post?
Just perhaps, it could be another bug?

I upgraded my video card from 128mb to 512mb and I can't go back to FS9 either.  FSX for me!

MS FS has often been called a "cash cow" for MS because that is exactly what it is.... a big, steady money maker!

And then the money goes to the gates foundation where 30 billion dollars is donated to help find a cure for cancer.

Seriously, people claim it's full of bugs, while the only ones I've got are mesh errors, and Flight logs mysteriously disappearing. I knew thing like that would happen prior to release just by reading P12C's blog.

If you think fsX is buggy, go buy Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion or LockOn. They both randomly exit, Oblivion has terrible performance, and LockOn was falsely advertised to run on Geforce 4's. If you tried running on Geforce 4's the screen would go light blue.

I should not have to wait for a patch or new hardware that does not even exist yet, to run a program (that I purchased yesterday) as advertised.  

What can't you do as advertised?

My viewpoint on FSX is that it's creation was/is a MASSIVE task - I mean MASSIVE. Trying to build a virtual planet & earth as we know it. a 1000 staff would still result in complaints.

It's easy to pick holes (& yes there are actual holes ;D) but let's take what we've got - & build.

& What we have here has enormous potential.

Please let the mesh problems rest. Yes - there will be many users - especially cauual ones (the majority) who will be pissed off if they live in a bad mesh area - & yes it's easy to say 'unfinished , etc- which it is ... but let's accept what we have & be positive.


Taking FSX as is - the build potential is fantastic. There is so much already there & so much that can be done.

I'm 100% that an official patch will be released.

I really think that whining now will achieve nothing more than a negative atmosphere round here. Life is too short. The message has been sent.

Please let's take what we have.  Know that MS knows the problems now & is prepared to work on them. & think of FSX as something with a long & bright future.
