Hi Pete,

Now that the retail version of FSX is available (got mine in the UK today), can you say when FSUIPC 4 will be made available. I desperately need to use the visibility settings.

I am working as fast as I can. I don't even have a proper DVD-based version yet except for the 9Gb download that us Beta testers put up with, and I've only had that a few days. I'm currently on target for a first release on Saturday 14th October, three days ahead of my original schedule which was based on what MS told us.

I desperately need to use the visibility settings.

I don't think you will want to use many if any of the weather facilities yet. Most of that part of the SimConnect interface isn't working very well. We are desperately hoping for an update to fix much of the weather stuff. I have included some facilities, but they are for experimental purposes rather than serious use at present.

Regards,

Pete

Looks like I'll have registered FSUIPC 4 before FS X is in my hands. I think my pre-order is delivered in about a week. :)

Thanks for the update Pete. It doesn't sound too promising for the weather features.

I'm sure they'll all come good, but I am dependent upon SimConnect developments. This is not an area I want to try hacking into again as I've had to with previous FS versions -- it was horrendous to do in FS2004 and it took six months of 100 hour weeks to get to a position I was never that happy with in any case. With FS2004 I at least had those six months of Beta testing and three Beta versions. This time it's all been too short for my liking.

Regards,

Pete
