Dovetail Games Flight School

However dovetails new 64-bit DX11 DGFS simulator due late in 2016 is very exciting: being FSX based means we can plan to create new content for that new platform without radical reinvention of the wheel.

...so what does he mean by 'new platform' then? Surely that suggests it is FSX with updated and new stuff, at least that's how I read it.  If it was the same old FSX engine then Orbx wouldn't have to change anything.

The fact that the CEO is excited about the release in Q4 must mean that what they are releasing is worth at least a look.  

This is where I am at the minute. I'm more than happy sticking with FSX:SE, but if these guys offer something more and it makes me happier then I'll stick with that version of the sim.  If it doesn't then I will just remain as is.

I think I'm more kind of hoping that what they have come up with is a lot more smoother and a lot less temperamental than the current version of FSX. The current engine of FSX feels like it's held together by rubber bands at times and the frustration with certain elements just get worse.

The multiplayer part of FSX is awful, so it would be nice if they have addressed this.
