it's coming...

EHM-0948 Bruno · « **Reply #1 on:** March 29, 2005, 02:59:21 pm »

Looks great.

Regards and keep up the good work!

EHM-0744 Alex · « **Reply #2 on:** March 29, 2005, 06:33:29 pm »

Wow... very nice indeed.

Any dates Gergely?

EHM-1199 Philip · « **Reply #3 on:** March 29, 2005, 09:23:53 pm »

WOW! What an incredible improvement. The current version is functionally ideal but certainly a little reminiscent of MS-DOS programs in appearance. Can't wait to get this latest version whenever it is released.

EHM-0654 Murray · « **Reply #4 on:** March 29, 2005, 09:30:13 pm »

Gah! Am I the only person in the world that honestly prefers the old version?

I mean, yes, the new one has a nice looking topo map, but the clean simplicity of the old one has so much going for it...

EHM-1365 Benjamin · « **Reply #5 on:** March 29, 2005, 11:05:18 pm »

I have to say I'm with you on that Murray. The current version's map is pretty clear.

EHM-0001 Gergely · « **Reply #6 on:** March 30, 2005, 05:15:31 am »

don't worry, you can disable that...

EHM-0654 Murray · « **Reply #7 on:** March 30, 2005, 07:41:05 am »

OK, now you've got me on-board Gergely.

It looks a whole lot more like an ATC client now, and real pretty with it too.

EHM-1199 Philip · « **Reply #8 on:** March 30, 2005, 08:03:41 am »

WOW! I love the whole information screen on the pilots and the new flight plan looks funky too. Some folks have obviously put many hours work into this project. Can't wait for it to go live! How do you get to hear about these things so far in advance Gergely?

EHM-0962 Zhen Yi · « **Reply #9 on:** March 30, 2005, 08:25:37 am »

Wish we could have something like that with our ACARS (like showing route taken by pilot etc)

EHM-1500 Jim · « **Reply #10 on:** March 30, 2005, 12:27:21 pm »

Wow that looks great...think a visual system would really help. If like me your european geography is a bit patchy then it can sometimes be hard to mentaly plan a route that would give you continuos ATC - the visual system atleast allows you to see what geographical airspace is covered - cant wait !!

EHM-1365 Benjamin · « **Reply #11 on:** March 30, 2005, 12:55:29 pm »

Hi Gergely,

Looks great now

But what are the things like spotlights....are they highlighting the aircraft that are in the selected details place?

EHM-0001 Gergely · « **Reply #12 on:** March 30, 2005, 02:29:52 pm »

Thanks for your kind comments.

Actually it's me who is making this software. :8

The 'spotlight' things are Friends (same as Selections in servinfo), if you selected to highlight them on map.

EHM-1365 Benjamin · « **Reply #13 on:** March 30, 2005, 11:51:41 pm »

Wow! You are so talented! I think most people wouldn't have a clue where to start

And it is already a major improvment if you can have more than one a/c highlighted on the map

The flightplan is also a great little feature...can't wait for a release (need any more beta testers

)

Take care,

Ben,

This is doable in SI2 - I have a nasty habit of accidentally highlighting all EHM flights and GB ATC, as that's my default selection list.

Someone needs to look at the SI help for selections, me thinks...

(Don't have SI installed at work, and I think my evil FW rules would prevent it working any how, otherwise I'd offer more explicit instructions...)

EHM-1365 Benjamin · « **Reply #15 on:** March 31, 2005, 12:55:15 pm »

Hi Murray,

I have checked the help again since last time and can't find anything in there that would acheive this :[ . It seems to only mention the obvous things like setting up selections which you don't even need help for

When I set up my selections (about a year ago now...wow...time flies) I did assume it would highlight them on the map - but I still found it incredibly useful :]

EHM-1199 Philip · « **Reply #16 on:** March 31, 2005, 08:13:32 pm »

Gergely, where do you find the time. First EHM and now ServInfo. Great work! Have Microsoft not offered you a paid position developing FS2006 yet?

Then I'm surprised you haven't seen this in action (only works for flights, BTW): go into the "Selected Details [?]" tab, then click the map button (the globe with a magnifying glass on it). All flights in your selected details window will be highlighted. I'll grab a couple screenies an upload them once I get to work...

EDIT: Ben (and anyone else for that matter), I made a new topic to avoid bloating this one with further screenies...

Neither, I found it by accident one day and have used it often ever since...

And having just read the SI2 help myself, I see this feature doesn't get mentioned at all (which I find surprising...)

errr.....wow, please inform us of a release, i love the graphics!

Gergő, will it work with VATSIM as well?

Would be great
