General Chat / Re: The Welcome back thread

« on: May 26, 2012, 04:34:55 am »

Hello World,

My plane went thru a Time warp I've been waiting for you all to catch up.... you sure took your time!!!

I'd like to be the FIRST to welcome you ALL back...
(O wait ok, maybe it was me...)

in my defense
I adopted 2 girls from the Philippines and returned to my Aviation job life got crazy, and really busy.
I always loved this project I'm so glad you all kept after it, I was worried when everyone went to college...

I really missed the group!

Stephen, we will have to do lunch I fly to ORD might have an overnight there next month...
been a LONG time.

no but if you want I can post it to this thread and we can all laugh at it together... 

but seriously, if you can use a cad, or drawing program it does not have to be free hand. were looking for people that can help fill in our older and missing Aircraft that we will not be able to find adequate pictures for.

So if I submit a really bad one, but no one else submits one at all, I get the job?

mikhail thanks for letting us know about your issue, we actually discussed your problem a bit in DC and I believe Will thinks there may be some solutions for your problem, unfortunately private worlds are foremost endeavor and a few other priority items till your item could be looked at...  may I suggest you make a detailed list of what exact pages you have issues with the PSP and was exact functions would be needed, please keep them to a bare necessity of items that way it will have a chance of getting completed sooner rather then later.  remember more item more work less chance its done anytime soon, keep it simple example "all I need is a scrollable number pad"

Also Fox Airways, if you find the time I'd be interested in hearing more about AM on a mobile phone.  what phone you use and if all the options work ect...?  you stated "if you have a Java enabled phone, download opera mini, it will run fine on there."

thanks for the input with items like this we can help to grow AM to millions of additional users.

Bugs / Re: Cannot start a new route.

« on: August 28, 2008, 09:59:29 pm »

I believe he is using the Premium gate feature, which is given free for a week to newbies to help with the settling in. 

HOWEVER, in that feature it DOES have a create route button, but if you didn't rent a gate first you get an error if you click create route.  I suggest renting the gate with OCP then click back button then create route.

basically, in the premium feature you have to rent the gates, then create the routes it won't do them both at the same time.

General Chat / Re: [POLL] What do you think of the New Forum?

« on: August 14, 2008, 01:40:36 pm »

I'll be the first to admit I didn't originally like the Forum, however as I learn the new keys and buttons I'm actually finding it easier to navigate and do stuff.

StephenM is enjoying a little R&R so fixes and changes are coming slowly, but be assured they will come.  Mr. Orange fixed a few visuals such and Blackness of Text and font size.  Things are coming back to normal as settings are tweaked.

If your having problems and are voting that you don't like it how about a little constructive criticism, you might just not know where a key is, or it may be an error that's been overlooked.

Something that really helped me was...
Things I've learned,
1. there IS a mail box here, if you cant find "get errors" it email StephenM he will fix it
2.  If you click the forum TITLE  not the green/blue arrow you will see ALL posts.

General Chat / Re: Airline Mogul IRC Server

« on: August 13, 2008, 01:47:55 pm »

Guys What DKTC and Mr. Orange are trying to say is We don't want to have to police the IRC and have it Cluttered with unofficial channels that do not represent what AM stands for.  Having players create and password channels on AM property and not allowing us full access is the same as poaching, squatting, and theft. Please keep in mind you are users and guests, this is a service which you get for free, while StephenM pays the bills! 

I have personally seen good chat sites and forums go very wrong! I'm sure you all have too.  AM staff works very hard to balance the needs of the players while continuing to provide a professional yet fun environment. 

I hope you will consider the above before trying to bend the rules, remember to ask before you create anything.  Also the more time you spend trying to bend the rules the less time the Coders have to programming AM, because they are policing you... you want hotswap right!!??

Sincerely,
Zero-G

Bugs / Re: [W8,W10] Aircrafts With Negative Hours?

« on: August 09, 2008, 03:08:56 am »

World 10, The Brokerage House
Same here I have two aircraft in my fleet just recieved as srcaps today and yesterday that came to me with -100 hrs. 

I believe the -100 is due to some sort of brokerage transfer error. 

I have a seperate aircraft that has -0 but I believe that is just the formula rounding and I some how maxed out that aircraft perfectly.

Bugs / CASA C212-300 Minor Problem (VERY MINOR!)

« on: August 01, 2008, 10:44:40 pm »

They were playing around with the addition of Aircraft pictures in preparation of designing photos and adding pictures into the game.  Then StephenM went away for awhile and the test link crashed, Bryce was unable to continue testing what he was working on till StephenM got back to fix it.  so some incorrect data was trapped in limbo so to say...

I bet you were excited you thought you had an Airbus huh!?  easy come easy go...

thanks,

This is call to arms for artists in our community!
Do you want to see your work on AM?
Can you draw with a high degree of skill?
Do you want bragging rights?  

Airline Mogul is moving forward in its development of Aircraft art. You could be part of history. There are a lot of planes so we will need quite a few people.  However, We want quality not quantity therefor we have developed an artistic test, and we have some rules.

Details and Rules:

1.  THIS IS NOT AN Airline Mogul POSITION.  
2.  THIS will NOT be paid, however based on quality, difficulty and amount finished there may in the future be nominal amount of free credits for accepted & completed work based off past productivity.  I stress at this time May, and nominal...
3.  Your TEST: All artists will be required to submit a 1/2 page standard letter 8.5x11 (approximately 800px × 357px) black on white ORIGINAL drawing of a Fokker F27
4.  An Aerocommander example of an what style and quality we want will be provided on site. CLICK HERE
5.  Artists that are accepted will be assigned aircraft based on skill, availability, & commitment.
6.  We will not be taking aircraft requests, unless you've proven yourself thru past assignments and its available.

Bryce, and myself will be heading up this project, we look forward to your participation making AM a more enjoyable and diverse universe.  Please remember we are looking for quality detailed hand drawings like the above example, so take your time and show us and the AM world your skill. I look forward to your examples please email them to the below email address.

General Chat / An Interesting Observation

« on: August 01, 2008, 05:20:47 am »

I'm In Chicago, and I'm using my premium Excel function...
Although the premium Gate feature had some great features and is easier to use!

Keep in mind there are people that are too lazy to research in the beginning and just copy for as long as they can keep up.
and really how many places can or will you really go in the beginning months with 1 plane there is sure to be some the same espically in an over crowded starting base such as ORD.

PS, you can always move or request a reset...

Game Strategy / A few newb questions.

« on: July 30, 2008, 03:39:06 pm »

Sounds like your fine!  you just have to be patient, and let the growth happen.  your making money on the plane after the 1st day thats great!  don't get suckered into expensive leases.  read before you click, yours sounds fine.  watch the market for better deals.   when you get bigger depending on your style, buy more then you lease but thats more player style and what deals are available.

i have a second nord 206 im renting for 250000 a month i have 13 flights all .5 or 1 except one 2x i am making 304,000 a day 100% loads

Get this thread back on topic!

Are your six routes DIFFERENT destinations?  do not run more than x1 frequency's to start, keep your destinations CLOSE to your HUB.  save the money up.  don't freak out when the month starts and your in the red, thats normal in the beginning... ask questions and search the forum...

Zero-G

First of all right now I just have the startup nord super boratress or w/e its called and make 182.654 a month. I am out of sdf with like 6 flights. Is that a pretty good profit or should i shut them down and look for more profitable routes? Also I am looking into buying another a/c. I was wondering if anyone had anysuggestions for another beginer plane. I was thinking a year old nord like i already have. thanks.
