FiumeShots! Part one.

 
Exclusive for ADX readers ! We are working very hard on the beta of this lovely airport. For now, here are a few shots from the beta process on my system. Should hold you all over! Our friend Rainer Duda is working on some screenshots for the near future as well for those of you who prefer a pro! Please keep in mind this is not the final product.

Port-au-Prince : Our own screenshots

FSX. After FS9, a few weeks ago, here is the X version of Port au Prince MTPP. I am impressed. The terminal has been very carefully designed here, with high resolution textures. Ground textures are very good and the airport (no special surroundings) includes a lot of details and objects. Is this Spectre a new serious professional developer ? I tend to agree, if the adventure goes on...

Oh my ! A B-737-200 ! By Milviz !

FSX. Yes i am overreacting here but.. Oh my god ! First shots are promising.

Port au Prince FSX released !

FSX. Spectre has released its FSX version of Haitian Port au Prince capital airport (MTPP). Full test incoming.

Approved !

FSX. I have tested the Lionheart Super Pacer yesterday. Short test - not a review - and explanations. Updated. Mistakes happen. We test a lot of things and with this online manual, i did not see the cleaning bottle feature.

Yes I know.

Seems like I really haven't been active over the last week or so... Yes I know. Work, family life, and personal projects intervene every now and then. Thank goodness for my brother Dominique for keeping the shop running! We are working on quite a few things for the blog. New comics are coming, more in-depth reviews, interviews, and exclusives including Rome Fiume! Very exciting! So hang in there guys, we are on the ball!

A static Dreamliner Lot

FS9/FSX. Drzewiecki Design likes the Boeing Dreamliner. Actually, Lot Polish Airlines was the first european airlines to order this new amazing aircraft. A static model is already on progress..

Felts Field, Washington, NRM

For use with FTX Northern Rockies Mountains

FSX/P3D. And more views of Spokane Felts Field KSFF from Jarrad himself. The initial "built" is now in the hands of beta testers who will try to crack and break this 8th marvel of the world !

Help us on our new poll

[Market]. You have probably took an eye on our new poll. 125 of you have already answered. Our idea is certainly not to disturb you with another poll. It serves another purpose. To show editors and developers that we, the simmers, have no unlimited money on our credit cards, even for Xmas. Many developers are working to release products and sceneries for the end of the year. The least i can tell is that's a risky bet...
Good luck and good night !

FSX/P3D. After our exclusives, Russ White has posted the first official preview of Bella Coola CYBD. And the news are good : " Almost ready for release", says Russ. Bella Coola is half way from Ketchikan / Stewart to PNW airfields.

Canada, the new attractive force ?

[Market]. Let's leave the Persian Gulf for a month or two, and think Canada. No need to be a  foreteller, the end of the year will be under the sign of the leaf.

Totally forgot about this!

FSX/P3D. It's been so long since an update on this, I totally forgot Carenado was working on a Cirrus SR22GTSx and man does this baby look smokin!

Another for OZx

FSX. Misha of OZx is well underway on his current freeware project YMGD Maningrida Airport. Very nice!

Heraklion FS9 released!

FS9. The FS9 version of Heraklion is now on deck! Go get it 9ners!

A glimpse of the Robin

So guess who else is working on the AN2...

FSX. SibWings. Yep and their version is clearly much further along than the version in development by Aerosoft. I really love this plane. Sad it didn't get a bigger part in "The Expendables 2".

Buttkicker! It's time you felt it!

[HARDWARE] Hey, I did say we had some good things after Thanksgiving right? So when track IR first came out a few years back, I completely failed to see the point of having it. In fact, I disregarded it so much, I didn't bother to even think of having it until about a year ago. The thing is, I have spent so much on software over the years, I never really bothered to search for hardware (other than the rig and the flight controls). Well now, external hardware is becoming so advanced, it's damn near imperative that we start making more of a concerted effort to look into what's being developed for our flight simulators. Thus, for the very first time, ADX offers you our first hardware review, the Buttkicker! Your butt is going to experience arm-chair flying like never before!

First interesting shots of Doha

FS9/FSX.  Posted today on FSDeveloper, a few shots of Doha OTBD in Qatar. Ground layers are finished and first hangars erected. Nice! And perfect stop to Dubai. Too bad we don"t know very much about this developer.

Here comes Sanya Phoenix!

FS9. Everyone, their mothers, grand mothers, and great grand mothers are wondering when the hell is SkySoft going to release some freaking shots of Beijing. We'll we have no clue, but in the mean time here is another work from the developer.

More WarsawCity for FSX.

FSX/P3D. Perhaps with the release of FT's Dubai, the FS9 release of WarsawCity 2012 may have gone a bit under the radar considering how closely the two products were released. I am very impressed with
the Warsaw product but have decided to hold off on my review till the FSX version is released. With over 1,300 reads of my Dubai review so far, readers are quite clear they like the combined platform review style. So stay tuned folks, Warsaw is going to shine and you are going to want it if you don't already! In the mean time, we have fresh WIP's for you!

REX Latitude Released!

FSX/P3D. Now finally we can go see what all the hype is about!

Incoming Hind!

FSX. Depending on what side of the fence you may be on, an approaching Hind can be a welcome sight, or a gruesome one. Well I know what side of the fence I am on and that's the cockpit!  Virtavia is well underway on the Mi-24 'Hind-D' and I want one! So watch your back!

Spitfire Mk IV for Free.

FSX. Got an email from the JustFlight guys saying the Spitfire Mk IV is available for free download! Head over and get yours now!!

BlackFriday Deals!

Here in the US, BlackFriday is a day that always follows ThanksGiving. It's simply an excuse for overstuffed people to kill and pepper spray each other to get ahead at Wallmart in order to buy some marked down cheap made in China garbage. For you lot however, BlackFriday also means some great FS products are on super sale!

GeeBee lookin awesome!

FSX/P3D. Alabeo's Model-Z is looking fantastic! The exteriors are complete the they have some lovely liveries to show off. Looks like they are working on gauges currently.

Wake up QualityWings...

FSX. Justflight has just released a couple of teasers of their BAE / Avro freighter. Although we among others consider the CLS version to be inferior to QW's, I can already see many QW Avro fans purchasing the CLS now as this is one variant where QW failed us. Let's just hope they change their minds on this one.

Am i ratting out ?

[|FS Market]. Here is an updated list of developers who have not published any new FS projects since 2 months or more. That's okay, some of them might want to stay off to handle a heavy project. Problem is : if eveybody stops communicating, this Flight simulation market will be slowly dying.

Orbx EU England : Our own screenshots

Overland maybe? I really don't know.

FSX. We just got a tip from one of our loyal readers of some sort of pending Haneda project. Now we know Overland was working on this airport previously but they seemed to scrap it saying something to the effect of they weren't happy with the quality. Whatever the deal, this is an interesting find. As for quality, you be the judge.
