aaaaaaaaaah just call it microsoft or MS!

I understand your idea, unfortunately this would not let you control the aircraft at low speeds. The result would alway look like those first missile tests during the war, you see ? When they get motor failure just  1 or two seconds after launch, and the rocket just fall horizontally to the ground 

Setting an additionnal helo motor would allow controlling the aircraft at low speeds and hover. Then, when pilot decrease the thrust angle, the power applyed to the helo rotor would decrease, and the power applyed to the jet engine would increase...

Yep, that would be great. AND it doesn't seem too complicated to implement, just a change like processing every types of motors at once, instead of processing only one of them depending on the aircraft type...

Damned, now I wish an ACES programmer would come here and discuss this topic with us, would be extremely interesting 

HEY! Shut up ! Let me dream 

Well, that's not entirely accurate...

There are three ACES developers who quite frequently post at avsim.com and simflight.com...

Mike G. (aka tdragger)
Jason W. (aka pixelpoke)
Brian A. (aka brian@ms)

But it is most certainly true that they cannot be "everywhere" else they'd have no time for actual work...

They may not 'appear' to have anything to do with this site and others like it, but actually they DO keep an eye on us.

FMC can be produced by third parties, just like it as ALREADY been done for the FREEWARE iFly 747.

Real thrust Vectoring cannot be added by third parties.

So I'd rather have thrust vectoring than FMC in the default game

Quote:


The defualt FS airplanes have an FMC in real life, not thrust vectoring. Why would they leave holes in the defualt aircraft and model features that the defualt aircraft don't even use?

Without an FMC the defualt aircraft are not complete. This is why nobody flies the defualt planes. You have to install a billion add-ons to make FS any fun.

Thrust vectoring can be added by 3rd parties. You can have animated thrust vectors and tweak the airfile for more manouverability. How many people in the world know how a SU-37 is supposed to fly? Who cares if it not 100% accurate. Get X-Plane if it matters to you that much. X-Plane focuses more on flight dynamics and military jets. I want accurate systems simulation in civilian planes, that's why I like FS.

Quote:


No, third parties cannot add thrust vectoring. Thrust vectoring has to be part of the main FS physics angine, and cannot be implemented externaly.

For the FMC, it's not the lack of FMC that prevented user to fly the default planes, else nobody would have ever used FS before the iFly 747 or the payware addons.

AND a LOT of people are flying the default planes, just because not everybody cares for the FMC, not everybody like liners, not everybody like fully automated stuff, etc...

Quote:

Who cares ? Everybody looking for realistic flight, that is a HUGE percentage of the simmers out there. If you don't care, go fly ace combat...

And the tweak of airfile for added manoeuvrability sucks !!! It just gives the world worst fly models of the sim !

Quote:

X-Plane is off-topic. We're talking about FSX here, and it's general lack of flight realism. You are only interestes in the gauges, I am interested in all the rest.

Quote:

- because they have a lot of other things to implement as well to improve the flight environment
- because the FMC are already allowed by the sim, it can be fully implemented while thrust vectoring cannot.
- there will always be holes in the default aircraft. I think not every single button of any aircraft can be used, right ? PMDG makes you pay 35 euros just for ONE SINGLE PLANE. Knowing that FSX will have more than 20 planes, can you imagine how much it would cost to have real complete planes ?
