I can't say for certain until the SDK's appear and I know fully what is involved, but I would say my next release will probably offer basic FS9 support, but with an enhanced FSX version. After that, it will probably be FSX only.

I think all mone are newer than FS98 gauges lucky for me :smile:

But i did see a piece on changing the header like you say so all is not lost for those that are too old.
OK thanks Rick...I did take these in FSX a while ago...Ignore the scenery because that is mine and not yet properly converted:-

Hi Nigel

Too hard to tell at this point as i have no idea how much work is invilved in self shadowing etc.

If it's a seperate model like the VC is it will be no problem as i can just compile without that model enabled.

I won't make any new models until i know what is involved
Thanks Rick and DaveG, it was just an after-thought as having read previous threads regarding FSX and with not much enthusiasm shown over it, I anticipate many that may stick with 2004, though no doubt improvements will be on the way before FSX is released.

Regards Nigel.

Hi Rick! Looking forward seeing your ferries in FSX - I hope you can offer them to us, I love that sort of thing!!
Do we have any talented truck/bus model makers among us? Looks like Gary Russell could be busy with repaints for many years to come! OK Gary if you can you start with the Northsea Ferries fleet and when you've finished that, Stagecoach busses? :lol: :think: I'd better free up some more disk space...

Theres a bus by Hama, all you need then is DXTbmp (to save the DXT format bitmaps) and a good image editing program :wink:
