I wonder how many would be purchasers have decided to leave this one alone?

That'll be me, then. As soon as I saw the activation system they were using, I knew there would be problems, so I held off. I will now be holding off permanently, which is a major pity because I would both like the product and would like to support the developer.

The absurd pricing made it improbable that I would ever purchase this release. The equally absurd activation and laughable lack of customer support have made it impossible.
 
I don't mind paying the price, if I feel a product is worth it. I strongly suspect in this instance that the security system (which is purchased in from a company known for major problems with its over-complex security software and lack of customer support) is a large part of that cost.

The most secure flight sim software we have seen is by Ariane and we have asked them to help us with the security. You may remember they kindly gave us the website template, with which we are very happy.

I think that was proved wrong very quickly. A quick search for Ariane products one very well known site makes me question it even more as I couldn't find a single one that wasn't available illegally which I could find available for sale.

I'll be honest, you've probably lost a sale here. I've heard far, far, too many complaints about Ariane's activation system.

That said, most of the complaints seem to be with the fact that problems with the system aren't resolved - I'll have to wait and see on that. Being someone who was actively waiting for these to be released, though, overzealous anti-copyright infringement measures are more likely to make me put my card away than get it out. They don't hurt the people who want to copy it - who wouldn't have bought it anyway in the collossal majority of cases. They do hurt me when I can't use the product I've paid a license fee for.

I wish I had been proved wrong instead.
 
I should say that, while the security is indeed over-complex and a right pain, printing out the activation instructions (as suggested) and following them to the letter got me up & flying inside 15 minutes. And please, all I'm saying is that I followed the steps exactly and the activation worked first time for me. As for customer service, I've not had to wait more than half a day for any reply from WBS<order no="">. It hasn't always been the reply I wanted, but that's another story. Just my £45's worth - far too much, of course. Good luck one and all getting sorted / refunded / whatever.

Yes i can safetly say my activation problems were self manufactured, i ask my e-mails to be forwarded to another account rather than the one i registered with warbirdsim.
However i will say that warbirdsim did take a while in replying to e-mails.
And sorry jankees i ill stop boring you to death with my activation problems so crack open the bubly LOL!!!

ouch, look at all those checkers on the nose....
you sure pick'em...
 
Heydon and Kaputtnix, I'm very glad to hear that you are up and running with the activation situated. We are here several times each day, and we do read every post when they are made, and look to do something about concerns, if possible. Some, what I hope to be very welcomed, news concerning FSX P-51B/C owners, will be making its way here in the near future as well.
