John Gayford 814699 Posted December 9, 2006 at 12:00 AM Posted December 9, 2006 at 12:00 AM Hi I have been trying to contact Chris Serio to see if a fix can be found for the bug which prevents us using this great simulator in the south pacific, but without much luck. Does anyone else have access to the code and would they be able to provide [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance. Rgds John Gayford Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Gayford 814699 Posted December 10, 2006 at 08:35 AM Author Posted December 10, 2006 at 08:35 AM Hi Marc Thanks for your link. Looks like we just have to accept that Chris is busy with other things and that support is no longer available. its a shame because this program has so much potential. If only we could contact Chris we might be able to encourage his to p[Mod - Happy Thoughts] on the source code to someone who has the time available to make the corrections. I have been using the Boston sector file for basic radar training but it just isn't the same as using your home sector file.

Marc Riedel 837945 Posted December 10, 2006 at 10:42 AM Posted December 10, 2006 at 10:42 AM I mean, the programme ist not perfekt - and you cannot really train well - there need to be done just a few more things like - the possibility that the aircraft can fly flightplans because in Europe we're using transitions very often which need to be trained - different aicraft behaviour (B747 shall not turn like a C152) Thats it what the programme would make as a useful tool for advanced APP/CTR training. Yet we can just use it up to a point of standard level...

Chris Brew 814351 Posted December 22, 2006 at 03:53 AM Posted December 22, 2006 at 03:53 AM When the alternative to training is to sit and wait for online traffic, Sweatbox/TWRTrainer are excellent tools. Maybe they could be improved, but as is, they drastically reduce the amount of time it takes for people to train on VATSIM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
