[released] FSReborn FSR500

I planned to do a test today using several different aircraft designed to measure performance with and without G1000 PFD/MFD popped out to two iPads.

The LITE versions will be a great addition to the test.

He means he doesn’t want them taking up disk space but as the whole point of them is being “lighter”, they will be minimal disk space usage lol

It’s not about disk space. Too many liveries is a pet hate of mine which is why I never usually buy from the Marketplace and so can remove all but one (if it was a real aircraft, I would only have ONE, not a blue one and a pink one and a stripey one etc etc). This one already has more than enough so I didn’t really want to see any more. Great for those who need a less taxing add on but not a plus for me.

I get that. But when I load my FSR500 I see one plane. I have to actually click on ‘Liveries’ to see all the options. It’s just not all that hard to remember which one(s) I like. But again, I see your point - to a degree.

Out of curiosity, which quality non-Marketplace planes allow you to delete multiple liveries? Is it some config file voodoo you have to do?

Don’t look at them then! :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Any addon which gives you access to the aircraft.cfg can be edited to remove the liveries you don’t want. Takes a few minutes to do, that and delete the texture folders. I think this one and the Sting are the only two I bought from the Marketplace and so cannot be edited, unfortunately.

I don’t mess around with config files.
I can see why you prefer unencrypted planes.

Actually, the good thing is it is not a mandatory update so I can just ignore it anyway. Now I only have 14 liveries instead of probably 28 :roll_eyes:

I wonder who holds the record for the most liveries? :sweat_smile:

To be clear, you will never be able to win. Embrace that fact.

What’s that for?

I am trying my best here you know, giving plenty of liveries, so people can enjoy them as pack of the base package, no extra money, nothing.. so I am a bit taken a back by your reaction, I guess next airplane I could do no liveries at all, 1 only and charge extra for anything else.. is that better?

You need to see things a bit wider here, the product is intended for a larger audience, not only PC, but XBOX and XCLOUD.. with my approach everyone can enjoy.. that’s the objective..

Best,
Raul

Probably SWS for the Kodiak. Ridiculous number of those. That one did take a while to whittle down to one. I’m guessing there is a lot of pressure on developers to provide them as Asobo seem to think people want hundreds to choose from.

I would pay extra for just one. Or even more if you sold outside of the Marketplace so I could make my own choice. Don’t be so touchy, it’s a personal preference, that’s all. Nobody is attacking you here.

I would say Cowan helis! Crazy amount. Shall I do a list?

@SimbolFSReborn you have built an amazing aircraft. But if there is one thing I have learned in my experience is that you cannot please all the people all the time. Your willingness to help the community, quick response to questions, and overall support of your product already goes above and beyond what any other dev in this community provides. I for one applaud you and thank you dearly for it. Don’t fret about those few that whine about the little things, continue to do what you are doing now. Providing an amazing product, fixing bugs when they pop up, and providing above par customer service and support.

I am a now a life-long customer of yours and cannot wait for your next incredible product!!! Can it be a C172m with original gauges and avionics (I like ‘em old school)? :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

Some do, some don’t.

I’m always surprised by how many people do though. It’s a complaint I see a lot for new releases - ‘oh, there are only seven included liveries’. Usually you can see the developers mind working overtime by the amount they include - well I’ve done blue, blue and red, blue and white, blue and yellow with orange stripes. What else can I do. Oh I know, metallic purple! So many liveries but some of them can’t do a decent prop disc on any of them!

I’d rather have a good selection of developer liveries included than using freeware downloads of suspect quality which may cause conflicts. Very few of the Kodiak liveries on fligthsim.to are better than the ones SWS provided.

And of course Xbox users can only use those that the developer provide bundled or have to pay for a livery pack (as there is no option to distribute freeware on the Marketplace).
