Eaglesoft Citation X Extreme V2.0 for FSX Released!

How 'bout them frames in VC:icon_lol:?

I'm wondering why you think those types of numbers equals low numbers in VC but oh well...
Ok, I was up late last night and back up at 4:30 handleing everything under the sun.
After some rest I'll get some more..shoulda' done that in the the recent session...:isadizzy:
 
Mr. Ron Hamilton "N400QW",

Its about time this baby came out... :applause:

I did buy the FS9 and the FSX v1.0.... And, it seemed to me, that it was a port-over model (NOT FSX Native) with NO VC texture upgrades, etc. Since your latest release is suppose to be catered to professionals pilots, like myself, I'd like to see some Pic.'s of the VC and cockpit before I make another purchase, please? I'm also interested in knowing if this is now a FSX Native model or still a port-over with original VC textures, etc. I understand you've done a lot to make it what it is. So, please don't take this as an attempt at a "bash" but merely a request for knowledge-sake before purchase.

Thank you.

As posted earlier

We call it FSX Certified but the answer is yes it is "native".:mixedsmi:

I would think the source textures would be the same as the original, so unless the source is a higher resolution, or they photograghed another CitX, they are probably the same.

First, this ain't CX V1.0.:mixedsmi:

James, we've stated in all places that FSX CXE V2.0 is FSX Certified. This is our term for what others call "Native FSX.
FSX Certified to us means full support of FSX/SP2/DX10 Preview, Self Shadowing, Specular and Bump Mapping, .DDS Textures, Low Draw Calls, etc.
I've answered this question twice today in these forums and in fact this thread if I recall so please folks, understand the FSX CXE V2.0 is not a "portover".

There are plenty of screenshots of 2D and VC In our support forums or you may take a look at the FS9 CXE V2.0 shots on our website.

You are welcome to register and login to our Forums for plenty of information and shots.:d

MC, they may look the same but mapping and improvements make them different.:mixedsmi:

Thank you for explaining that to me, even though, you had to do it again on my account, for a long-time customer. :ernae:

Thank you, I've been a long-time registered member on your forums and did go and see the screenshots. Perhaps, I am confused by the way you do things but it seems that you are using FS9 screenshots and placing an FSX Certified Logo on the same screenshot for an FSX Preview (see links:
http://www.eaglesoftdg.com/forum_shots/cx106.jpg
http://www.eaglesoftdg.com/forum_shots/cxx9.jpg
http://www.eaglesoftdg.com/forum_shots/cxint_4.jpg).
Perhaps, I'm incorrect, but I would like to see complete FSX Screenshots of the VC and exterior, as well, if that is NOT to much to ask. That's why I asked for them and what I've seen so far looks good.

Thanks! :wavey:
 
James, I understand your and other request for a full FSX photo layout.
What you and others do not understand is the schedule I have for the next three days or so...
That is the reason I pointed to some FS9 shots with an FSX headeer..at least you can evaluate from those shots what the FSX version looks like since both versions have very similar appearance.
Sheesh guys, there is a 30 Day refund policy in place if disatisfied.:d
 
FSX Certified or "Native"

MDLX is the important factor here<!--colorc--><!--/colorc-->.

Trying to understand all this, the plane is FSX native but the screenshots are portovers? :isadizzy:
 
Fantastic news!!! I've held out on purchasing alot of quality aircraft lately,ca$h is a bit tight!!! But I've been waiting for this bird for a long time and I'm not going to pass this one up!!!
Cheers Ron/Eaglesoft:medals:

It's not that difficult. Ron simply hasn't had time to create new screenshots yet, having been busy juggling several dozen other balls simultaneously... :jump:
 
this exchange would be funny....if it were meant to be. :173go1:

you Eaglesoft guys are alright - thanks for all you've done to enhance the FSX experience.

You've just added another item onto my 'to buy' list
 
Ok, the real world CX does not have Autothrottle but does have FADEC.
FADEC is Full AuthorityDigital Engine Control. That is a description of electronic thrust control and is managed by Pilot placing levers into Throttle Detents which are labeled TO, Climb, Cruise, Etc.
The reasoning is that N 1 Values are limited by FADEC to prevent over thrust and engine damage and assists Pilot thrust settings in various phases of flight..
Registered FSUIPC allows our FADEC programming to "see" hardware Lever positions for accurate FADEC control.:bump:

Thanks for this - but I'm still not clear whether I'll need a registered FSUIPC. I have an X-52 stick & throttle. The hint on your support forums is that without registered FSUIPC, there may be "problems" with the throttle. Would I be back to keyboard use only? Can you be explicit, please, about what functionality is lost?

The short point is that buying FSUIPC is a deal-breaker for me. I have no issue with your pricing - but I do if I have to add FSUIPC (when I have never had cause to use that for anything else, so I'd literally be buying it just for this addon).
 
Is there a quick and dirty way to have this baby flying?
Tried all kinds of stuff but it takes me a hell of a lot of energy to hve the engines running and get her ready to fly!

Realism is great, but sometimes i'd like to take her just for a spin.

After a bit practice, I can now load the CX 2.0 "Cold and Dark" and have the aircraft "ready to hand fly" in under five minutes.

If I load a pre-configured flightplan, that adds about two more minutes to the process...

If I have to create a flightplan "from scratch," that adds another six to ten minutes.

You can run the CX 2.0 without FADEC and FSUIPC support, but you will be giving up one of the neatest features: the ability to simply select TO, CLMB, and CRUZ detents, and let the FADEC system manage your engine's performance automatically.

IOW, without the support of FSUIPC to enable FADEC, the throttles will behave in the normal, default FS manner, just like every other FS aircraft, whether it be default, freeware or payware.

As for the real value of a registered version of FSUIPC, do realize that it corrects or enhances more than fifty known shortcomings of FS. It is a veritable "Swiss Army Knife" utility program, from smoothing winds aloft, transitions, cloud coverage, eliminating "spikes" in control inputs, extending battery life to more realistic times, calibrating throttles to allow for "reverse thrust," et cetera.

Honestly, if you aren't aware of all the terrific things that FSUIPC registered can do to enhance/improve your enjoyment of the sim, I highly recommend doing a bit of reading. The full manual comes in the download: http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html
