They should make a FS2004 version, that's if they want to make more profit from this add-on (767). FSX is up and running but the majority is running it due to peer pressure from developers. With this economy, I doubt we can update our PC's to run FSX.

-Don't forget about the little people.

I agree, and not only that, there's a LOT of people who still run 2004, simply because FSX is eating too much resources. I have a new computer, with all the specs as they should be, but I am still not happy about the FSX performance, plus I got so many payware that I am not willing to switch over, and there's lots of people like us.

It would be nice if they cover the other section of the market also, with a 2004 version. I'm sure it would be bought a lot.. sad to hear we're missing out on this one Sad

I'm curious, why has Captain Sim chosen to stop developing for FS9?
With Microsoft terminating MSFS completely, I believe it has practically put FS9 and FSX on an equal level.


I have purchased almost all of Captain Sim's aircraft to use in both FS9 and FSX.  In fact I purchased the 727 for FSX first and liked it so much that I recently purchased the version for FS9 and love it too.

Both have their advantages and I use both interchangeably.
FS9 runs silky smooth and FSX runs pretty smooth, but looks much better graphically.
I'm sure with the importance Captain Sim puts into awesome graphics, FSX fits the ticket better.  On the other hand Captain Sim's releases for FS9 also look fantastic.

I also expect X-Plane to be putting out some mind numbing accurate releases within the next year or so too.
From what I understand, X-Plane is very developer friendly and may be something for CS to look at with some seriousness also.


At any rate, I am very excited about Captain Sim deciding to make a 767-300 for FSX, because I know it will be like no other, but I can assure you that if one was also offered for FS9, it would be on my computer and many others also.

If Captain Sim does not consider the 767 for FS2004 then they lost a customer. I really want that 767. I can not afford to fly FSX when I'm spoiled already with my FS2004 running in full capacity on my PC.

Game graphics/effects are not so important. It's always the system that makes things well.

Who here wants inexpensive "new" hardware that will work great with FSX and at a reasonable price?

That way you can buy the CS 767 and enjoy it... Cool

You gotta link?? If I cant max out graphics, and get at least 40FPS, forget it. I am not impressed even with the high end systems.  FSX transition has been officially pushed back to summer 2010. I have lever d 767 so I can wait it out. Too bad though for CS, they can still make money on an FS9 version.

You'd be surprised, you can run FSX at 10 FPS and it is still very smooth. 20 FPS is more than enough. Anything more than that, you are just wasting system resources.

The time of FS9 has come and gone.  Those who wish to live in the past are going to increaqsingly pay a price for that.  With the Aces team disbanded and FS development stalled, hardware is catching up.  I support the decision among developers to not waste resources on this old platform any longer.

I disagree.

I still use FS2004 and manage realistic flights. I'm throwing my vote toward the creation of an FS2004 version.

If they continue their policy of FSX only, then I'm afraid I'm not purchasing any further Captain Sim products. I removed FSX from my system, even after SP2, and it will be a while before I touch it again.

Let me guess ...

this has turned into another one of those FS9 vs. FSX "Yet Another Pointless Discussions" .... Cheesy

You FS9 guys really love to argue your point endlessly ... Are any of you lawyers?  I could use another good lawyer.  Huh
  

Thank you very much.&&Sincerely,&&From,&&        James F. Chams&&

Oh yea  Smiley

those FS9 guys.......

For me FS9 died at my first try off FSX around 2 years ago...
At that time i build a new PC.......... Intel Quad , Nvidia 768 MB Grafik
Vista X64 , 6MB Ram.........
And just to say : never would back to FS9 and i am pretty lucky
with my FSX System no problems at all.

And this Hardware isn“t that expensive today but it was at the time
i build my new PC. ( 2 years ago ).
Can not understand why some people still cry at FS9.
With that Grafik from FSX and all the new technics in it
i never would go back.
FSX is the future and even MS - Aces never brings another Flightsim
on the Market - FSX is my Standart off a excellent Flightsimulation  Cool

IMO  Smiley

cheers

I agree,

Why not for FS9? Doh, it's an old version, why spend time and money developing for an old horse that only a handful of people use.

Get a new computer. I bet you guys are using Windows 95 too.  Grin
