Hmm, well apart from your very rude first post - disrespecting the hard work of all the payware people out there (can you actually do anything better yourself? If not, stop whining!), I'd say that the place you're going wrong is the fact you are playing microsoft flight simulator. ;)
If you've actually bought any recent IRIS product, you'd realize they have great potential and it's not always how glossy they look or if the textures are great (yes, they post chappd my ass too). Well at least you've found shockwave and I agree as they are in my top 3 payware manufacturers. But it really chaps my ass that you're so rude about it.

i'm sorry, i didn't mean to be rude, but i'm not disrespecting their "hard" work, i think they are disrespecting me when they want me to pay for something like this, cause i've seen better freeware stuff.

Fair enough, but I think this boils down to three things:
* 1. The fact that certain freeware developers are so good, they out perform payware developers sometimes (this is comparable to Linux being better than Windows, for example or any other open source philosophy.
* 2. That it seems you are after pure looks, when certain developers put a lot of effort into the aircraft systems as it is a simulation.
* 3. Payware developers have a time frame to make stuff, or risk losing money on a development - where as freeware developers generally tend to work on products in there spare time, or are retired and thus have the spare time.
