May 3, 201313 yr Don't also forget that xp10 is still in beta Five, while I understand what you mean, there is still a lot of confusion about this "beta" stuff. X-Plane is officialy no more in beta since around 10.05 (or 10.10, not sure). But, there is often a beta version in the workshop, which we have access to, and which sometimes gives the impression that X-Plane is in perpetual beta. It is not. It is a release model more akin to a "rolling release" that Google, among others, has popularised, and I believe that most softwares will eventually follow this model in the future.

May 4, 201313 yr Author Nice to see you and your enthusiasm around again Mitch! I have to say the latest two betas have reignited my enthusiasm too! Hi Geofa! Good to hear from you, as well! You know, I turned on the computer last night, started the download, and went to bed. In the morning, the demo was intact. I really didn't know what to expect. The MAIN reason for my interest, was the 64 bit.exe ...the rest today was 'history'. I'm in...and now a dedicated Laminar Research supporter. before adding any payware or freeware scenery, you will need this free update or else you will get scenery errors: http://www.opensceneryx.com/ I'm visiting the sites tonight and writing down what interests me, or bookmarking. I'm going to wait until I have the full paid-for installation, before really laying it down.... Mitch, I was wondering what happened to you. Hey Mike, how's it going? I have always been around or just off in the bushes. I think that I typed more today in any one forum then I have in a long time, lol. Cheers!
May 4, 201313 yr Commercial Member Nice to see you and your enthusiasm around again Mitch! I have to say the latest two betas have reignited my enthusiasm too! I would agree with you Geofa.

May 4, 201313 yr How do you get it to run more than 15 minutes? I set it to run as an AI plane and it runs for 15 minutes and a screen comes on that says it is disabling the joystick.There is no place to click to continue. I was at KSEA. Thanks, Bob.
May 4, 201313 yr When my 15 mins came up I just turned on the auto pilot and kept altering the heading :lol: Think you seen most things and then along comes a train... At night I wondered what the flashing lights were on the highways, zoomed down and the cops had there flashing lights on tearing past all the other traffic. Yep, got the disks a couple of days ago.

Thanks, Bob.Hi Bob, as soon at that 15 minute kick off comes up..and perhaps a few minutes before that, make a heading that keeps you in the demo area, and click on let A.I. fly the plane. Then sit back and enjoy. Another great way to see how responsive this can be on your own unique system, is to be at the runway with the plane running and click on A.I. control. You will see the plane turn off the runway (if you are using real weather) and head at taxi to the proper runway for wind heading, take off, and climb out to cruise. A really nice demo of what this baby can accomplish... Ses

Congratulations on your newborn sim :lol: :clapping: lol my life is so sad :lol:
May 4, 201313 yr Hi Ses. Thanks. I started out with the plane in AI mode. It did leave the initial runway and taxied to the proper runway. It sure was jerky at the turns. It took off and flew for a while and then the message came up that the joystick was disabled. I tried everything including the A/P and it did not work. I'll try it again as you stated. Bob.
