What do you mean you want to get your money back for a payware or do you want to do something else...if you want to get your money back most likely you wont be able to because when you bought the download it was all written there

Normally you build a reputation through offering some freeware products, consistently making products that are well above average or excelling in accuracy and detail, then eventually move to offering payware add-ons.

In that case the reputation needs some more work - I already have several works out here on SimV!

I agree with Daz. While building the reputation may help get your name out there before the big switch, switching teams halfway through the game isn't going to make any friends. And as we all know, friends are your business.

Best suggestion would be to offer both. Keep some of your releases as freeware, and then offer others as payware. This way you're not alienating half of your potential customers midway through the process.

You could offer enhanced features in your payware products. Perhaps a DVC. Maybe some more interesting planes, or in the case of panels, some different (e.g. more realistic) gauges. The possibilities are endless!

Great edit, Bob.&&&&&&Google it. &&&&www.google.com
