Slopey 4 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Room is getting bigger!!!! Now one seminar at 3pm as opposed to two or three throughout the day! Link to post Share on other sites
brett 2,284 Posted October 11, 2013 Report Share Posted October 11, 2013 Sounds like it will be standing room only. Looking forward to your announcement Slopey!! Link to post Share on other sites
DaveLeafNiles 0 Posted October 12, 2013 Report Share Posted October 12, 2013 Love AH1 so have to pipe up and say I'm keenly looking forward to AH2! Link to post Share on other sites
Quickmarch 488 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 I wonder if NOW would be a good time to log onto the AH Forum and start filling in the "Wish List" thread. It would be best if everyone did a bit of research within the thread to make sure they're not re-visiting areas already covered. I know I have a few things I'd like to see AH do (and not do) in a revised format. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Some time ago I surveyed that thread (many, many pages) and tabled it all out for Slopey. Not saying it's too late - it's not, but the most intense part of studying it is done. John Link to post Share on other sites
Quickmarch 488 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Are the results of that study available? Sure would put a cap on duplication. I'm assuming that the announcement is going to foster a string of suggestions as there are lots of us who would like to see some changes to the current format - natch! What was the old saying about satisfying 90% of the people 10% of the time and 10% of the people 90% of the time? Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 No, I can't. There is a lot of my own commentary added to what was in the thread that I think would violate the NDA. I'll dredge up the document and see if I can do anything with it. John Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 OK, here's an executive summary of the executive summary and I don't think violates the NDA since it's all from what's posted in the JF Suggestions thread. This was done when the thread was 34 pages long - it's 44 pages now. The first item, User Interface, is just all over the map - no one item really, just a collection of this and that... Summary - Ranked by Topic: 100 - User Interface 69 - Options/Option Setting 38 - AI Efficiency/Capability/User Control 21 - Job Generation 14 - AC Sales/Leases 14 - Contracts 13 - Charters/Missions/Quests/Tasks 12 - Multiple Aircrew Requirement 11 - AC Damage/Repairs/Inspections 11 - AI Hours Limits 10 - Pax Operations 10 - Cargo Types 10 - Random Aircraft Failures 8 - Integration with Other Applications 8 - Cooperative Companies 7 - Operations Assistance 7 - Suspending AH 7 - Rule Enforcement 7 - Rank System 7 - AI Effect on Reputation 7 - AH “Universe” On-Line 6 - Transport of Pilots (deadheading) 6 - Competition (non-human) 5 - Cargo Loading 4 - Bank Interest 4 - Cargo Transfer 4 - Reputation 4 - Stock Market 4 - Business 3 - AI Monitoring 3 - Commodities 3 - AH Determine WX 3 - Random Events (non-flying) 3 - Base to Base Ops 3 - Routes/Scheduled Operations 3 - Multi-point Access to AH 3 - Access Jobs While in FS 2 - Advertising 2 - Parking Orientation 2 - Cooperative Job Assignment 2 - AH1 -> AH2 Company Transfer 1 - AI “personality” 1 - Multiplayer Support 1 - Loans 1 - Cargo Damage 1 - Pilot Portal 1 - Repaints 1 - Base Leasing 1 - Landing Evaluations Link to post Share on other sites
mutley 4,487 Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Good work John, it's interesting so see what is important to people Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 One of the hardest parts of summarizing all the material that was in that thread was coming up with the appropriate and logical set of bins/titles to collect them into. Three guys can complain about suggest the same thing and characterize it so differently that they don't seem to belong together at first reading. John Link to post Share on other sites
Quickmarch 488 Posted October 13, 2013 Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 That's quite a list John, Most of my suggestions can be collected under "AI Efficiency/Capability/User Control" and "Cooperative Job Assignment" although "Realism" is missing. Thanks for your efforts. Link to post Share on other sites
Slopey 4 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Don't worry John - there is no NDA - remember? All suggestions are welcome, and for those that can't make it to the Flight Sim conference, I'll try and post a summary online in the week or so after. Link to post Share on other sites
allardjd 1,853 Posted October 14, 2013 Report Share Posted October 14, 2013 Oh, yeah, that's JF. Well, I always try to behave as if there's an NDA. John Link to post Share on other sites

mutley 4,487 Posted October 21, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 21, 2013 I was busy "working" on the stand but I saw Duncan later and he said there were around 100 attendees! Link to post Share on other sites

J G 927 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 I was with my Dad at the show, and he wanted primarily to see the museum so having dragged him to Mutley's stand twice, I couldn't inflict that on him as well. It would be interesting to hear the thoughts of those who did attend though. Link to post Share on other sites
Slopey 4 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Hi All, The presentation went pretty well (from my perspective anyway!), around 120 attendees, of which over 50% had AirHauler 1. Rich from JF has the first 20 minutes video'd from his phone which is on YouTube at: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9LmnRqPH3xs Note that you can't see the presentation slides that well, and you can only get a feel for the interface, but you can hear yours truly spouting off about it. I'll have the slides uploaded later today and will post a link here and also on facebook/JF, so you can follow along with the slides and the narrative. Cheers, S. Link to post Share on other sites
Slopey 4 Posted October 22, 2013 Report Share Posted October 22, 2013 Here's the presentation (excuse the trial version converter watermark!). Click to advance the slides - this is a carbon copy of what I presented at the show. You can use this in conjunction with the YouTube video to get a feel for it. http://www.airhauler2.com/pres Link to post Share on other sites
