    Re: IFly 737

    Hi Everyone,

    I am a sim buider but not of 737NG but an Airbus A300. I have been helping flight1 support the release of this product, kind of ironic.

    I just to keep you all updated. The developers are creating an interface that canread/write nearly all of button/switch/selector. As the product has only been released 3 day the main focus is to get the minnor issue addressed first then accomidate user requests.

    The interface still needs some time to be tested fully before release. It is hoped to have a SDK available for the aircraft in the future.

    The only display window sizable atm is the cdu but that should also be address in the near future as well.

    Oh and no I won't be buiding a 737 and scrapping my A300 :0)

    Cheers

    Steve

    The best your going to get Bill is that flying the 737NG did make me smile and only because it almost flew as well as my Airbus.

    IFLY 737 would be interested for us (cockpit building) ONLY if it has SDK outputs and is at the same time tested with all additional hardware we use (Opencockpits, Cockpitsonic, Flyengrvity, CPflight. etc, etc....)

    It is useless to buy an addon package and realise that your CDU or yoke, or MIP card is not operating.....

    My personal opinion is that I prefer waiting than experimenting

    I believe the IFLY team will be very keen to implement builder's needs as soon as they have the "release bugs" sorted. Their support forum is very active and if you read there you will find they are sympathetic to sim builders. Like you I also am waiting to see how this develops before purchasing.

    Re: IFly 737

    I just wanted to update everyone on the progress with making the iFly 737 Sim builder friendly. We are just about to release an interim patch for users that had CTD's and covers some of the reported bugs, we will then move on to finishing the service pack. We are talking to CPflight and hopefully opencockpits in the coming days along with some other companies, the support we have had so far has been excellent and should make adding drivers support pain free for the developers.

    As we get closer to incorporating the support I will post details here and we might need a couple of testers to make sure we get it right 1st time.

    Take care

    Steve

    Not only that, it would be nice to be able to run gauges etc. on different (networked) pc's. Not everyone has a flightsim PC with multiple graphic cards to put away PFD, ND, Stby instruments and FMC screen.

    But that's my 2 cents.
