Hello to all. Aerofly FS/FS 2 are already on the App Store, for iOS (by the way, they work extremely well).

Regarding Aerofly RC 8. I wanted to ask; are there any plans to port it to iOS too, or at least, the older RC 7 version?

It would be very good to have it on the iPad, for some loo/bed training time. I think that Apple now support the xbox/ps4 controller, on mobile devices.

Best regards

As a start I send you my version.

Copy the folder into "aicraft mod".

Hello. Thank you for your configuration files; the model fly great, almost by herself. Regards.

What a superb bird; the dual seats model look outstanding. I wish I kew, how to add her to the simulator. Thank you for sharing and stay safe.

I bought RC8 just for the sailplanes. Sadly; no minimoa present the most gracious, old timer glider.

Any talented sailplanes fan working on this beauty?

Stay safe and best regards, to all

*Actually; I have a wooden three meters one (took me months to build). Very afraid to fly and crash it...

Hi all,

Maybe I didn't look correctly, but I read in the SDK that the different levels of the imagery have fixed locations (first level one image for the entire earth, etc). But is there a specification of this system somewhere? It would be useful to know how I can calculate the borders of each tile.

I'm asking because I have a (not yet released) feature in scenProc that can grab images from a WMS and export them to a photo scenery. I would like to give this a try for AeroFly as well.

Mr. Arno; I simply wanted to say thank you, thank you very much, for your work and your help.

… I’m ‘making’ all my country; a photo real scenery and is only possible, using the ‘tools’ you’ve developed for us; for free…[Blocked Image: http://www.aereo.jor.br/wp-content/uploads//2013/03/F-16-FAP-foto-For%C3%A7a-A%C3%A9rea-Portuguesa.jpg]

Contains EDXB Büsum for flights to/from the mainland. Just downloading, will try it tonight.

Kind regards, Michael

Hello. Are we going to ‘see’ it on Steam too? My AFS2 is the steam version.

From Europe, I only have Innsbruck; I would really like to buy Helgoland too…

We need this sound on the 'Flyby' view...

Hi. My ‘AFS2’ is the Steam version? Are they going to release it on ‘Steam’ also or is it only, in the online store?

I would really want, to have it on my library. Beautiful scenery…

… just to get an idea…

If anyone is interested; I’m looking for a member, to request an aircraft project…

I’ve a ‘thing’ for dual seats sailplanes; the ‘Blaník is the Blaník’ but, my all-time favorite, is the Duo Discus. The latest version is the (XLT)… it has a little engine, for sustained flight.

Of course, we have the new, ‘state of the art’ flapped Arcus ‘motorized’ too; T/M/E versions.

If anyone is interested; the project is a fully working model, of this sailplanes presented.

The goal, is to share it to everyone for free, of course... fully working on Aerofly FS2. The (MAX/AC3D) model and *If possible, an afs1/fsx/p3d/xplane/… version too. Free for all!

I’m willing to pay for this ‘little’ job and help, in anything regarding: aircraft data, pilot’s feedback, cockpit pictures; even contacting Schempp Hirth for support... maybe they would share, a 'simple' model too.

*Anyone is free to join this adventure…

Hi. For FSX/P3D, you have the free one, from fsglider.de and for Condor 1, you have the one, that comes on the plane pack 1.

Testing both simulators/birds, I only can say; Mr. Jet-Pack, you’ve done an outstanding job on the 29 for AFS2!

I think that almost everyone knows the work of Mr. Wolfgang Piper; he offers nearly 80 free sailplanes, from the last millennium - 30’s to 90’s (fsx/p3d):

Off course, Mr. Jet-Pack here; offers you a free ASH-31 motorized for Aerofly FS 1:

Yes, the ASG-29 flies very well…

… in my humble opinion; ‘Innsbruck’, the most beautiful scenery released for AFS2 + sailplanes…

Quote from antigoon

I've just bought Condor 2. It's underwhelming, and so seem to think most other customers. The difference in look/feel is too small and there is no VR.

So, IPACS, there is still a market to be won there. Would you consider spending some extra time on the thermal engine? Getting it acceptable is good enough for now. Perfection can be found later on.

Hello. Do you know what I think? Well, I never liked very much the developers and the so called ‘club’ supporters, of Condor.

I’ve a legitimate license of Condor, plane pack 1 and plane pack 2.

I was waiting for the latest version… some days ago, I think they banned my ‘home’ IP. I really don’t know why? Never posted on the forum; never raced online. No reply to my contact... no explanation!

I’m glad that happened. With the latest ‘news’ about version 2. A simple update not an upgrade; I will never, ever go back. I’ve never been treated like that, in my life. I’ve 46 years now; I’m a husband and a father of two lovely girls. That simulator, the team and the ‘special ones’ community, is a story to forget…

IPACS developers, team; are the most kind and nice people I’ve found on the ‘aircraft sims’. AFS1 is good; AFS2 is simply, great!

Back on topic; is anyone working on a new sailplane for AFS2? Duo Discus XLT anyone? The ASG and the FOX could have, a new friend…

Hello. For now; I’m doing the ‘ortho scenery’ of my country and locating/placing, the Airports/Aerodromes.

My city, Braga, as an aerodrome. (LPBR)

The ‘testing ortho’ matches it perfectly…

The problem is, I don’t have any ‘CAD’ application to use. Can a more ‘expert’ on this things, share:

1. A simple runway for it: braga_rwy.tmb
2. A simple texture (tarmac): braga_decal.tmb
3. ??? don’t know if it is needed ???: braga_obj.tmb
4. Instructions to add it to my braga.tsc

I would be really grateful for the help.

*By the way… there’s something wrong whit the terrain, on ‘Lukla’ and ‘Nuuk’…

How am I supposed to land on this one? I can’t see nothing… 2854.71m!

I’m a mac user too. I’ve Windows just for the games; no directx and the opengl is ‘old’ on OS X…

How does it run for you? I’ve a R9 NANO, on a Mac Pro lying around… X-Plane on the mac well, simply runs… like a pig!

My friends; what an outstanding job! A very nice place to visit…

Thank you for sharing.

Hello. I wanted to make a request, if possible and easy; of course.

For us, that mostly fly the gliders; can a (NMEA moving map > COM port) be added to the configuration?

That would make easier to connect ‘real’ or computer based glider computers, to Aerofly.

I already can do it on Condor and X-Plane but, well; they’re not Aerofly… the graphics and models beat them all!

Clear skies to all.

Thank you for the help. I already managed to make ‘XCsoar’ work with Aerofly.

Only ‘iGlide’ is giving me problems… Apple and its usual thing… the walled garden!

Gliders Flight Computers

XCSoar for Android/Kobo/Windows/Linux/macOS (free)

iGlide for iOS IPhone/iPad (not free)

Hi. I’m having some problems, configuring Aerofly FS 2 external data option.

On X-Plane:

X-Plane > XCSoar - Computer 127.0.0.1:4353

X-Plane > iGlide - iPad (IP address + port)

On Aerofly FS 2 I can’t get it to work… Both the computer and the iPad, can’t receive any data…

*Anyone knows the proper address and port, to insert on aFS2 configuration?

Best regards,

Xanix

Why no sceneries from Europe, Africa, Greenland, Iceland? I would gladly accept any Nordic country too… 'orbx' is only making American Airports.

Can we count on IPACS, to give us more scenery, from around the world?

I really wanted new/unusual places to discover...

Kind regards to all,

Xanix

Quote from Jet-Pack

Hi Xanix,

you don't need 3Ds max to convert the model. You can just install the latest SDK converter and then run it on the dr400 folder which already contains all exported files (at least as far as I know). Make sure to check the aerofly wiki for instructions.

Good luck

Hello. Thank you my friend; I managed to ‘build’ it… the blue Belgian lively from 'sydel7912' matches it, perfectly.

This aircraft is really, really cool to fly! I can finely leave the Cessna in the garage.

Best regards,

Xanix
