  1. I saw something similar as well, but have not yet spent much time at KSAN. At times, it did look kind of like that, as though the planes were dragging along the ground without landing gear, but they are so far away from the tower that it seemed hard to tell for sure. LIke I said, I only looked at that airport for a few minutes. I will try to have another look and see if I see it again, and maybe take some screenies.
  2. I am really loving this new version, but its still missing my favorite airport. Please please please, give us some good news about this upcoming add-on. Otherwise I fear I may turn into Golem from Lord of the Rings. "We wants it, my precious. Yes we wants it very much indeed!" :-)
  3. Perhaps even try a different mouse if you have one lying around.
  4. Agreed! A much smoother experience altogether: -No more planes at KLAX getting stuck on the taxiway after landing. -Just got around to trying the voice. Wow this is so much better than the voice recog in Tower2011, which I gave up on. I did the training, and now the only times it messes up are when I say something wrong, and even then it gets it sometimes. Never thought I would meet a voice recog that I liked. Just wow! -A lot of little things that together make a big difference: manual lights, hold for clearance after pushback, mulit-monitor all add up to a big smile on my face
  5. According to Nyerges, Only RT needs to be redownloaded. RC is the same as before; just be sure to point the installer to FeelThere/Tower3DPro/extensions/airplanes. Harvester, I did not have this problem with the RC textures, so it sounds like something must have wrong during installation.
  6. When no aircraft is selected, then you may pan freely. Clicking the "Clear" button on the control panel will deselect aircraft so that you can pan freely again. Now here is a little secret that really helps me: Pressing and releasing the left shift key on your keyboard has the same effect as the "Clear" button. I find this MUCH faster and less tedious.
  7. Would love to, but as with the original Tower3D, I have never been able to get the .bat file to run on my machine. For now, I am just trying to establish how the sim is intended to respond to this command. On your machines, does the pilot respond verbally to the "turn next right/left command?"
  8. Thanks. In the sim, is it intended that the pilot should respond verbally to this command, or not? Just trying to verify that it is functioning as intended, and that the command was accepted. Currently, when I issue this command (via mouse button), the dialogue disappears and the "take next" option simply disappears from the screen. The pilot does not confirm that he understood or will comply with the instruction.
  9. Please clarify how this command is intended to work in the sim. So far I am using only the button commands, not voice. 1. Should I expect the pilot to verbally acknowledge the command or not? So far, pilots do not verbally respond to it at all (so far I have only controlled at KLAX so have not tested other airports). 2. May I issue it to an aircraft still in the air, or only after the plane is fully on the ground? The option becomes available on short final. 3. How does it differ from the "hold short of taxiway" command that also becomes available on final?
  10. Loving the pushback feature. I expect this will be very nifty at KATL where taxi allies lead to both the north and south runway complexes, and getting departures pointing in the right direction will be critical.
  11. So far it looks great. A couple of notes. 1. I noticed that the .exe is labeled identically to the standard version. Would it not make more sense to name it Tower!3DPro.exe? 2. While I see how to change the runways, I have not yet found a way to change the wind direction. Is there a way to change it manually, or is it always random? Have not tried it yet, but does the wind actually affect aircraft performance? Will pilots complain or refuse to land if assigned a runway with a tail wind?
  12. Yipeeeeeeeeeeee!
  13. Or worse yet, he may have gotten into that bottle red wine he was talking about, and now he can't remember where the button is. Tsk tsk tsk. What are we going to do with you Vic? I suppose he is now in a drunken stupor having crazy nightmares about booting up Tower3DPro, and discovering that Harrison Ford has landed on the taxiway. Oh wait, that was in real life... Come to think of it, that would actually be a pretty cool Easter egg for the game. Any chance of including that Vic? Nah, I guess he will probably save that idea for "Tower3D: Celebrity Aviator Edition" :-)
  14. No no, If we let you sleep first, then none of us will have a sporting chance :-) P.S. So excited :-)
  15. 37 hours with no sleep? This sounds like the perfect opportunity to toss out a challenge ;-) Once Pro is released, I hope you will join some multiplayer sessions with us? Perhaps you might agree that whoever gets the highest score will win free KATL?
  16. Hey VIc, how about some news to brighten our day? I think the drummer's arms in the post above are getting tired :-)
  17. Just got my BMT discount code. Waiting eagerly for release news :-)
  18. Adam, Be aware that Tower3D does not work with multiple monitors, so you will definitely need the soon to be released Tower3D Pro. Vic here has confirmed that the Pro version will support multiple monitors, but he has not stated how many monitors it will support.
  19. And is that tomorrow in the US, Europe, or Asia?
  20. I keep waiting to see when there will be any change on the atcsuite website. So far there is not even a mention of the Pro version there. Of course, what would be really cool would be if those who already owned the standard version got contacted early to make their purchase.
  21. I take it, that the bug-fixing/testing has gone well this weekend? By the way, nice new "Pro" cover shot on the Facebook page :-)
  22. In the meantime, how about a screenshot or two of KATL? Pretty please?
  23. Tower3D was released on May 31 (a Tuesday) in the early evening (US Eastern time), but of course that may mean nothing. It also seems like it was released on ATCSUite.com before it became available on the main Feelthere site.
  24. Well, not quite yet. First he has to release it. Of course, all it takes is the click of a button, so let's have it :-) By the way, for T3D owners, will the discount be applied automatically, or will we need some kind of special code?
  25. Thank you for making this happen! Though less than I was hoping for, it is still a very welcome move. 1. The title of the post says "Pricing and discount." What about the pricing part? 2. Could we get a comprehensive list of pro improvements over the regular version? I know some have already been covered in various posts, but it would be great to see it all together. 3. Can you confirm that we will still be able to mod schedules as before? 4. What is the status of KATL? Andrew
