There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

That's a must have for me also. I've flew into the helo pad at the Super Dome many times in an UH-1V. With that detail I bet I can find my old house. LOL
just before Katrina hit. Looking forward to it.

I have SanFrancisco X and will not buy any more city.
On my system it`s nearly unflyable,around 4-8FPS, and the scenery ends without any sense anywhere.No ferries in this highly frequented area.
Not all from Aerosoft is a musthave for me,there was a review anywhere about the cities,saying the same,can`t find it again.
I am looking now extremly,what i buy.There are a lot of things on the market,you should pay attention.
Too much is thrown on the market only to make money,not to please you.

I am sorry you are not happy with the product. I did check our support database but could not find anything related to you regarding this product. I am attaching an image that shows me flying over the scenery with around 19 fps. And as you can see from the image I did not go our of my way to get high fps as I show the external of the Catalina. That's about 350.000 polygons loaded (more then the scenery shown in fact). I also made the shot with a 4870 card, one of the worst for FSX possible (working on Rise of Flight art this moment and that sim loves that card). So by picking a simple aircraft, reducing some settings and getting a less expensive graphics card I could have added another 10 fps without any problems I think. So I am sorry that you got fps that low, why don't you visit our support forums and see what we can do to help you? (sorry we do not do support here).
I also like to make 100% clear how this product is positioned. It's something between default scenery and high end addons like Manhattan X. It covers a good area with things we feel are pretty nice for a very low price. If you compare it with Manhattan X (as some obviously do) you are forgetting it costs half and that Manhattan only covers 1/3 the area. Putting products like this on the market is always difficult. If it is not seen in context it is easy to write it off as bad.
And yes, we put this on the market to make money. Aerosoft got around 50 people we got to pay. We don't really hide that fact as we actually ask money for the files, right. There is still some very good freeware around, some of it I love and use daily. If you feel this was not worth 12,51 Euro I am sorry and hope we can sell you something soon you feel is better.

Abbreviation's of swear words are a waste of time to me, as I read yours as 'what the f**k'. If you'd rather not post the word, why abbreviate when you know people will read it as you actually intended? I just tried to write it, but of course the forum quite rightly moderated my post, as it's an inappropriate word.
Yes, I've had a stressful day today!
I've just deleted the informative part of my reply, as it seems Mathijs beat me to it above. I spent too long whining...I need to go find another beer.
