Flight Simulator X RTM support lifecycle over

FYI. As of July 8 th 2008, Flight Simulator X RTM is no longer supported by Microsoft Product Support Services. I guess that means that if you have to call PSS for support on the simulator, you should install SP2 (or purchase Acceleration )! Not quite...

Want more video tutorials?

Well, it seems I have convinced the ACES team that video tutorials are not only popular, but needed for future versions of Flight Simulator and Train Simulator. So, let me ask you to post on this thread on fsdeveloper.com examples of video tutorials you...

I needed that post.... :)

For the past few days, my house has been having power problems…. Lights turning off and on, power tripping out in the office and the like. I called the Irish power providers (the E.S.B.) on Sunday night to complain with a couple of beers in tow…...

Microsoft ESP MSDN Forums are open

About 30 seconds ago, I posted the first ESP MSDN forum question I am sure that potential developers on the ESP platform will find this to be a helpful resource. This forum, along with fsdeveloper.com (although that is more the Flight Simulator side of...

Owen Hewitt's post on the ACES Visit

I see that Owen just posted this . So as not to crosspost the same info, I am simply going to link you to that post as there is no point doubling up on the same info. That last picture is funny! When I get a moment, I will put up some more ESP information...

FSInsider.com Newsletter

I meant to post this the other day – when the news was fresh. No doubt a bazillion other FS bloggers have already mentioned it already, but there you go…. it seems that I can no longer be the person with the “exclusive” to FS...

Owen says I am “ Wild and Crazy ”. Really? Who knew. Yes, I will be attending this year’s MVP summit in Redmond. I missed the last one because of the house move that was going on (still is to some extent). This year Microsoft have given...

More Phil....

Get it…. get it? More Phil! More Fill…. At least I crack myself up. I just wanted to point out an excellent blogpost from Francois Dumas, he echoes my sentiments exactly . The wealth of information pouring out of ACES still amazes me nowadays...

Oooooh, I am in hardware heaven......

How about that for the geekiest title ever. For about 6 months, since my move of home and office and as I have already said , I have not done much Flight Simulator stuff. But there is another core reason for my lack of “hands on” time with...

Things never go as planned...

As Arno has already mentioned on his blog , we did not get the move done this weekend for fsdeveloper.com, but this has been a bit of a blessing in disguise. Because we could not move the databases due to technical issues, we decided to concentrate on...
