I loved the 300 and this is only the icing on the cake. Now to awaiit the 300 upgrade. Please just the cockpit than it wont take soooo looong. This has being in development for years so enjoy.
 
Hi all,

If you were having activation problems earlier today then these should now be resolved. Just run the installer again and do the activation.
Thanks very much for bearing with us.
 
Congratulation Dimitri for your brand new Dash! Some of you already knows this, but I'd like to remind you that this Majestic Software Dash Q400 is actually the baby of Dimitri, the talented freeware developper from Samdim Design Group, who made wonderful aircrafts like the Antonov An-24, the Tupolev Tu-95, the Yakovlev Yak-42, and decided to go payware with his Dash, smart move... Long live Samdim and Majestic Software!

I've owned the Pilot edition for about a year now. Will there be an upgrade made available to the new version, or will it require a purchase of the complete package?

Good looking airplane...great work. Congratulations.

from my understanding its a completely different model and package that has nothing to do with the 300
 
Thanks guys.
I think what I am meaning to say is this. I bought the Dash 8 Q-300, previously sold by Majestic. It was a premium priced model...$43.00 US. That particular model appeared to be a port over and not FSX native. From a systems standpoint the model was well worth the money, however I felt it lacked the asthetic benefits of a pure FSX creation.

My question is will Majestic offer the new model at a discount to people who have already purchased the earlier release of their Dash 8 from them.

I'm sure I'll pop for the new plane...it's awesome, however from that point the earlier 300 version will be a throwaway.
 
Actually afaik the 300 is almost a different plane. The Q400 is totally different. I dont think there is a discount for it.

Thank you for kind words, but this is not completely true. Samdim Design (Nikolai and I) made everything about the visuals, but the heart and the soul of the plane is an oeuvre of Oleksiy who spent already few years developing systems before he contacted us. So we didn't decided to go Dash, we just joined Oleksiy and followed a two-year road with him (and will continue)

Anyone else who has dowloaded this model having trouble with the audio? Exterior view audio is very low and flat, but flyby audio is loud and distorted with no midrange. Strange. Something not right. Guess it's time to ping support. There are other 3rd party audio files for this aircraft that I know are quite impressive, but for $60 bong bucks, I'd expecte better.

got it off the ground easily enough. Flies nice, but I have not check out all the flight computers yet. Exterior and VC textures are very good.

The old q300 as mentioned was a fs9 import bu worked quiet well in fsx. He did post on his pld forum that he may use lessons learnt form the 400 to upgrade the 300. So im waiting. It is still a good plane just the VC and gauge textures realy need an upgade. Its the only reason I dont fly it.
 
I'm still having trouble figuring out why the model will not utilize Alpha channels. The repaints are sort of "matte" finished and editing the Alpha channles seems to have no effect (niether paint or glass textures).

That's a big "no-no" for osme of us repainters. IIRC, Airsimmer did this with their Airbus and it was complained about then as well.
