Ooops – hang on…hit post too soon.

I don’t know – I had dinner with him a few weeks ago when he was in town for business and he hinted that it would be ‘real soon’…but that was not ‘real soon ago’.

Speaking of Robin: Any estimate when we’ll see a new release of apt.dat? It has been a while and many changes/fixes have been submitted. Would be nice to see an update so that everyone can take that as a base for further improvements 🙂

We are making no statements any time soon about system and OS requirements for X-Plane 11 or any other future major upgrade.

🙂

At this point WED export is tied to submission to Robin – we need to either develop an exporter in WED, an importer for Robin, or a mix of both; having WED spit out Robin-ready data lowers the cost of developing Robin’s tool chain more than it increases the cost of development in WED…basically we think a specialized “ready-for-Robin” format makes sense.

Having Steam on Linux is a real change of events, but Linux users have been telling me that Linux is “making progress” since we had the port, and the market share number keeps going down.

We are making no statements any time soon about system and OS requirements for X-Plane 11 or any other future major upgrade.

Thanks, but what is about further Versions, for example X-Plane 11 ? Are there any plans for it ?

i thought a submission & governance process with robin would be a good first step. full integration into WED could follow later on…

I am hoping (fingers crossed bigtime) that Linux support might go beyond 10.x, Linux is also starting to gain some momentum in the gaming area (recent developments with steam etc). I am sure every linux user such as myself is equally grateful that the linux port exists. I wont hold you to this Ben, but is there even a glimmer of hope that Linux support may go beyond 10.x or has it’s fate already been decided? Linux is such a good operating system (AMD and NVidia obviously believe this too).

Hi,

We are not dropping Linux support for the v10 version run; we are trying to keep the OS and hardware requirements stable.

cheers
