Bonjour Fred: Je suis en France dans l'Auvergne. Si je parle très forte, tant pis, mais après beaucoup des heures, avec des autres, en tant que je peux dissiper des problèmes, je continua comme ça !
Little is given to Windows' users and we have to find ways to resolve our issues. We did not have access to the "pre" versions, but, yes, we are left to resolve them ourselves. There are some list members who have given hours of their time to assist us. Like me, we thank them for this. In the main it may be a graphics card/driver problem, but then again we are in the mass market and developers SHOULD remember this. I am too old and can go far back, but there was a spirit in being able to share information. Times are changing and nowadays, these persons are few and far between. The spirit of Flight Gear is excellent, but it is becoming too big and splintered, with what seem many unfinished projects and no control over its ultimate direction. We have even had one aircraft developer recently say that he created an aircraft, but did not expect anyone to use it! His response was to someone asking why the cockpit was not finished!!! Why was it made available for download? There are big issues with this release and, so far, it seems to be Windows related. As for non-Windows operating systems and the types of problems we are reading about, these seem to be, in the main, related to how "script" or "codes are written" and where to find the relevant information. What we are seeing is more discontent and this is going to grow. With previous versions, we heard that this or that would be resolved in the next release or new script (which cannot be accessed for Windows). We now have the latest version, but the pre release was not available for Windows' users. As I said the mass market is Windows and if we were able to access developments as they happened, there would be more individuals available to comment on or inform of problems. As it is, it is afterwards and too late to do anything about it. If the problems were resolved, would Windows' users have access to the changes when immediately needed? Then, in answering your question, would I donate for development - yes, but only when I was assured that it benefited Windows' users. At this time it does not. Thank you Martin -----Original Message----- From: Frederic Bouvier [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 21, 2005 11:40 AM To: FlightGear user discussions Subject: RE: [Flightgear-users] Windows FGv9.9 and FGTools Quoting MPCEE French Bureau : > Much is now being mentioned about developers and their lack of testing.
