    Hi, I was wondering how X-Plane is handling AI Traffic? Do they have/will have something like MyTraffic or UT2 so skies and airports can get nicely crowded?

    Just as I predicted, 6 to 12 months...."Just run your installer (from X-Plane.com) with the BETA options turned ON to get itHave at it and let me know how it goes!austin""ps: X-Plane 10 is much, much, much slower in coming along than I planned.. but it is much, much better as well. It is slow because I have raised the bar ridiculously high for this release, simply because I CAN. SO, I am keeping v9 totally bug-free while v10 is developed, which I am hoping to have ready by the end of this year.""I am hoping to have v10 ready quite a bit sooner than that."

    I got an email stating McPhat studios is working on an ATR for Xplane and it looks great so far. It seems like little by little we are seeing some well known development teams starting work for XPlane. Can't wait to see what this sims future is like. Xplane already has some great developers, they just don't seem to get the attention they deserve (or maybe I am just too new to XPlane?). Maybe some of these well known FS developers will bring some more attention to these other folks as well. Btw, if the develop of the Challenger 300 reads this; OMG...I love it! Awesome work on the aircraft!!

  11. X-Plane 10 is looking pretty good and after all these years it's finally coming of age to me where I feel it's worth a look. Flight Simulator on all fronts seems to have consistently topped X-Plane but now I'm seeing features like what's able to be accomplished with the new default 744 that give it some unique pluses on par with FS. Now my question is have they finally embraced traffic in X-Plane 10? I may be a little late on the whole experience but last I checked the skies in X-Plane were pretty lonely unless one was flying online. If X-Plane has traffic and ATC on the level of Flight Simulator I will take a look. Thanks in advance for any feedback you guys can give.

    I have noticed some strange terrain graphics corruption when flying X-Plane. I've tried various videocard drivers without effect. Any ideas as to what is causing this, would be appreciated.

    Since I posted already about my anticipation for X-Plane 10, many new things have happened - FSX has had many new addons that are great - sceneries, A/C's, Airport traffic activities and etc. FSX is really evolving. I am still very interested in what I have seen and what's been reported about X-Plane 10. I have had wallet ready for it for some time. Many have suggested that I go ahead and purchase X-Plane 9 in the meantime. What I would like to know is do the A/C's and sceneries that are available now that work in the latest X-Plane 9 version, work in X-Plane 10. What addon products that work in the latest version of X-Plane 9 will NOT work in X-Plane 10?

    There is a section on the X-Plane site that begins:X-Plane works by reading in the geometric shape of any aircraft and then figuring out how that aircraft will fly. It does this by an engineering process called "blade element theory...."Can anyone provide a link to a more detailed descriprion than the one given there?

    I took off from Bellingham inteding to fly to Ketchican. I couldnot get the program to track using the GPS so was using the Heading and altitude choices of the autopilot. When I approached Ketchican and I wanted to drop down in altitude I couldnot change any of the settings on the autopilot. I then checked the other items on the control panel and nothing fuctioned. I was ble to change views but as far as cockpit functions were concerned there were none. I am using the latest version of X-Plane. I have never had any problem like this with anyother aircraft in the x-plane inventory. The Log Book indicates a 3.9hr flight to the Canadian airfield it indicates my aircra…

    I am not starting this thread to start debate, or speculations. I am only expressing my deep anticipation of this program. I have been with flightsim since before some of you were born and long before this web site existed. I have bought every version of Microsoft flightsim and very impressed with latest. It is beautiful when working but is a ticking time bomb. If I sneeze too hard, I am presented with a new problem/error never before heard of and did not even exist before Win 7. I am presently re-installing once again with all addons which has become a career.I have had X Plane installed before but no longer using. I have read much discussion about X Plane 10, and eagerl…
