Yes Bob - agreed - it was only the landing light that made me think twice as I scrolled past.

Thanks Tom. Yes it was pirated on day 1 sadly, by a customer who purchased it from FS Pilotshop, called Raven Harris, and it's now being sold retail in eastern europe by thieves. There's nothing I can do about this sadly. I can email Rapidshare all day, but the damage is done, it's almost pointless. I'm disgusted to say the least. But then I come back here and see all your comments and I don't feel so bad. People wonder why FS devs drop off so often and leave the industry... that's why. Unfortunately we don't have the resources and sales of EA or Namco etc and can survive that kind of thing, it hurts directly in many ways. The L-39 doesn't have draconian copy protection because I as a payware purchaser hate that kind of thing (though I certainly understand it). I believe in ownership not licensing, but that's the big drawback. If I am able to do a second project I will almost certainly have to rethink this stance to combat this problem, which is sad.

Donald I've answered your question on the support forum, and you can add pics there too. I'll look into this problem today and see what's going on. Thanks.

it is Nr1 bestseller at Pilotshop so you did nothing wrong
sure every illegaly shared version is 1 too much
but even if their are more draconic copyprotection I am sure any of the pirates will find a way to crack it will only takes longer

if you make a second project I am looking forward to purchase !

Honestly, in a week where I have been largely unable to relax and listen to music or stop to laugh at the insanity of all of this... I have been getting a REALLY good chuckle out of that at least!

Next project: Tractor!

I think thats mostly because of european customers which go to pilotshop because it costs a few euro less there because of the dollar conversion rate

Are you going to sell it as a special boxed edition with a nice printed manual? If so I'm first who will order it!:ernae:


P.S. I was talking about L-39 of course.:icon_lol:

Very good idea, so far we don't have any decent native Tractor for FSX with shared cockpit functionality. :icon_lol:
 
Have any of you folks tried the cockpit sharing online yet? Ian Pearson and myself pottered around an island near Thailand yesterday in a L-39, and I have to say it was a lot of fun. I did find the fuel lever was just too tempting in the rear however, it's like a big red button that says "DO NOT TOUCH"...ummmm...click...screams from the front...ooops! :engel016:
 
I've been checking out this masterpiece of a creation and I'm stunned at the quality. I mean it's as close to perfect as I have ever seen in an add on, right there with RealAir and A2A standards, and that is to say the best of the best. I have not even really opened FSX in the last month or two, but this plane has had my attention most of the night. Looking beyond the add on it's self I'd say Lotus Simulations has about the sweetest image going. I'm really impressed.

Great shots SolarEagle.. What scenery is that? My trees don't look anywhere near that thick and organized, even on extremely dense autogen.
