Hey guys,

Let's not take offence at what some of us say. It's easy to forget a few things. First some of our posters here are only 12-14 years old and at that age tend to be very direct in the way they put things. Bluntness can be mistaken as rudeness but it's not intended as such.

Second not everyone has English as their first language and sometimes things and meanings don't translate.

The Dutch for example are more direct and to the point than say the Americans and English.

I'm not sure how a Spanish speaking 12 year would put something when trying to use as few words as possible.

They may say boring when they don't mean it that negatively. Americans are generally the most polite and most easily take offence as a result.

So a 10 year dutch boy may say something very direct and bold and a more mature American can easily take big offence at that kind of directness.

So let's not take offence guys and please don't argue with each other as you may find out that you are arguing with somebody much younger and from another country.

Let's just keep it positive and friendly.

We all get stressed sometimes and forget this is suposed to be fun and constructive.

We apprciate all your comments.  :lol:

That's the problem with these kinds of ground textures :lol:

Also, in the distance they just look odd.

I have to say that all these preview shots look absolutely stunning but I'm slightly confused:

- I thought that FEX was only a program that changes cloud and sky textures. So are these ground textures part of the
  project FEX?

- Why don't you mention your ground textures on your website (www.flightenvironment.com)?

- Will you cover the entire world in let's say 4-5 region packs or will you just cover several countries all over the world?

- I thought Aerosimulation LTD would work together with Orbx on FTX. Do you also have a partnership with them now?

Sorry for those dumb questions but I just wanted to make sure I didn't miss something important.

We are doing ground textures seperately from clouds and weather. We will also be doing aircraft and scenery in the future.

We will make annoucements on our website when appropiate.

Right now you are seeing some early preview shots.

It's meant to be released quite soon actually.

Anyway, the jokes should be on PMDG with the MD11, NGX and A320 to be honest :)

Not sure. We are a fair way from being ready to release though but I can promise it will be well worth waiting for. I can't show previews now becaues we don't have any yet.  :lol:
