Having all their international airports (except the old KCLT, KCVG, KMCI - I have their older KATL, not last years'), I am very pleased with their work.
I hope they do new version of KCVG, KMCI. Will buy them as well. Always for FSX.
They seem to be the most technically challenged of developers. Can't even mipmap textures. Not to mention other issues that were never addressed. No more for me.
Every developer has different methods. We are seeing a lot of new development techniques from the more advanced developers but we cant just expect all developers to gain this experience over night. Newly advanced techniques need lots of time to learn and master. For us, what we respect is when developers are taking the time to improve and better their level of quality and ImagineSim has improved a great deal lately. I csn say the same for LatinVFR and Taxi2Gate. these guys are trying and getting better with each release. The Charlotte is ImagineSim's best scenery yet. We will have an honest review when the FSX version is released.
Just tried the demo. So far it looks very promising and finaly it seems as they learned how to mipmap (not to is in my eyes UNFORGIVEBLE when they charge money for their scenery). I think this is their best scenery and I will purchase later to night.
Then their prices should have reflected that. Are they still charging separately for each version? It works out to more than FlyTampa or UK2000. They are NOT in the same league. And mipmapping textures has been a basic tool for a loooooong time.
Wouldn't it be wonderful if every developer was at the leading edge of design? Not every developer develops for FSX 24/7. For most it is a hobby and they do it for their own enjoyment and share their work with others, sometimes freeware and sometimes payware. If every developer had to live up to very high standards we would very quickly so many either... a) go out of business b) have greatly increased development time
Many users want an enhancement for their favorite airport and/or local airport. Not everyone requires FlyTampa, FSDG and 29Palms scenery quality. They want an accurate representation with decent visuals, and this is where Imageine Sim excel along with many other players in the same field. It is the variety whichs makes FSX such an amazing platform. I would like to congratulate Imagine Sim, Taxi2Gate and LatinVFR (among many others) for their ever improving talent and scenery quality. Keep it up guys!
Yes Imagine did a great job on this one. And as you already found, the textures are mipmaped. And to piggyback off Aaron Imagine fills a very important market gap and does so quite well.
You should reread my post. Did I say they have to be in the same league as the others? I'll repeat myself. If they are not, they shouldn't be charging the same. At least Blueprint doesn't. And I'll be more than happy to try the demo of KCLT. Hopefully it will be an improvement over the previous mess.

Will definitely buy this, for FSX.

Are their FSX versions still port-overs from FS9? Imagine Sim's older airports are super buggy for me in FSX.
Your title id incorrect - FS9 only
Imagine Sim Charlotte FSX released !
Great price, too - Any FS addon in the "under $30" USD range is very much welcomed.
