Flight Pro Sim is NOT Flight Gear!

better than flightgear

I am a member of the Flight Simulator Network where I recently mentioned Flight Pro Sim. I received the following comment from a member that said that Flight Pro Sim and Flight Gear were the same. So I wrote to the creator of Flight Pro Sim for a clarification. I thought it would be good to write both the comment and response here as I recived them. They really help to clarify the issue and help you understand why Flight Pro Sim is such an excellent and user friendly product when compared to other flight simulators on the market today. I have left the comments unedited for the sake of fairness and clarity.

Comment on Flight Simulator Network:

The flight simulator you’re selling is available here for free download:
http://www.flightgear.org/
it is made by the open source community, you can also pay for a set of dvd’s and some of the proceeds go to world vision

Response from the Flight Pro Sim team:

Thanks for the email.

Hopefully I can help answer your questions, please feel free to post this back to the forum as well as there appears to be some confusion happening.

FlightProSim is an open source stand alone Flight Simulator.

As always disclosed this is a split / branch from the FlightGear
community and has been set up for a very specific reason.

The core group of users of FlightProSim are males over 45 years of
age. Many of them have very limited computer skills yet love
flying.

They simply want a plug and play game that works.

The commercial applications available fulfill this criteria but
are very expensive due to costly updates / upgrades.

The current OpenSource applications available are free yet an
average user needs a Masters Degree in Computers to get them to
work…

This is and always will be the goal of FlightProSim.

“To create an Open Source Flight Simulator that simply works,
exceeds users expectations and is available at a reasonable
pay once price.”

The complete start up of the game was rewritten to help new users with this issue.

This year there are also planned a fair few major improvements:

Including

- Better hardware and add-on software interfacing capabilities
- Creating an API that is compatible with SimConnect and/or FSUIPC.
- Incorporation of more photo realistic scenery
- Reducing the lag effect in flying
- Video Tutorials of all aspects of the game for members use

So although it is a branch of Flight Gear, FPS is still is a stand alone project. To simply say ‘Get it for free’ is false advertising and illegal.

More details about this is within the dev area of the site.

There are a bunch of different programmers working on FlightProSim so it is always evolving.

We also have a few more planned content releases in the affiliates area, so keep checking back for more.

Also if you need any other tools to promote Flight Pro Sim let me know.

Thanks

Charlie Taylor and The FlightProSim Team!!
