Wingwalker on the wrong side
« on: February 11, 2019, 09:35:07 pm »
Hello,

sometimes the Wingwalker is on the wrong side of the Airplane.
As far as i have seen on different Airports, he takes all the time the shortest way.
So he takes the inside of the curve to walk.

There's nothing in the GSX code that tries to evaluate the shortest walking path.

O then tell your developer to include something like that, because walking on the wrong side is very unrealistic.
That could not be sooo complicated.

We are working on far more important things that this incredibly minor detail.

Oh yes there are a very lot other things to fix and update, nut
even i would not call this bug minor!
If you do this in real, you will maybe lost your job.

Why don't you stop with all these niggling complaints and ridiculous suggestions and leave Umberto and his team to get on with important updates that will benefit all users?

I think it is embarrasing to protect the developer as a paying customer. It is not a gift we get but a product we buy and it was great when we could give inputs before.
I loved GSX long time but since the last months, even though there was a great breakthrough with GSX2, it has faults who diminish my pleasure using it and Umberto does not want to hear it anymore. It's a shame.

you are soo right.
But i think virtuali has no longer a programmer for gsx, he is maybe not a programmer.
Remember, the lst update was on 7th Dezember.
Also there are sooo many requests and error reports from other user which are not implementet and not solved !
Also it seams he has no idea of the ops on a Airport.

You don't have the slightest idea how what you are talking about. Really.

Just stop making such useless comments, because while I'm "surely" have "no idea" on airport operations, you don't seem to have the faintest idea of what making a software means.

"the last update was on 7th December" ? And that what's exactly is supposed to mean, other than we have been working very hard for the past 2 months to do the next update, which will cover things WAY more important that the nitpicks you continue to suggest ?

And yes, all WE GSX programmers (there are several, including me), are quite annoyed after working late hours each day for the past 2 months, to have just been labeled as "non existent"...

Maybe, if you stopped making losing my time on the forum replying to your all your minor issues which are NOT even bugs, the next update might have come sooner.

Wrong, wrong, wrong, and wrong again.

The only faults that are not solved are only the one that are not properly reported. A proper reproducible report is the best way to ensure a problem will be fixed. Do you even know what happens when an user make a report ? This:

- Before replying, I try to replicate the problem, with the (usually) limited information provided. Because, 95% of the time, a post fails to include important data like the airport used, the airplane used, the gate used, if the airport is default, if it's not who made it, if it's customized by GSX and if it is, who made the customization and how, if the airplane is customized or not and how, if it's using the default GSX configuration or not, the precise, exact, sequence of operations chosen.

Not a single time, I ever found a post made this way, but that doesn't stop me from going through EACH SINGLE POST, and trying to replicate the problem with what is almost invariably partial information. For example, if the problem involved the airport customization, I would never be able to replicate the problem unless I either had that customization, or at least a description of what has been changed. But this almost never happen.

So, usually, I find myself unable to replicate the problem, so I reply asking for further information, which usually doesn't come.

I can assure you that 100% of the problems that we could replicate, has ALL been fixed, because being able to replicate a problem is the ONLY way we can fix it, but it's also ENSURE it will be dealt with.

Now, there are some problems we are fully aware of, like the issue with KCLT/KSDF and the new SODE, and many other things that has been reported here, which has been already fixed, but we already explained, so many times already, we cannot just push a quick fix NOW, because we changed almost *everything* in the very structure of the GSX installation, because of the replacement with totally new models with PBR (not just new textures, but entirely remade models and animations too ), we rewrote the Live Update FROM SCRATCH, to make it faster, so we had so many changes, and we are ALSO working on totally new service vehicles, that it's so much new stuff (the installer size will probably double in size), making this FREE UPDATE almost bigger than the whole GSX L2 expansion, so we cannot just publish the small fixes until it's all done AND TESTED.

Because I know perfectly well what will happen: those complaining about "no updates for the past 2 months", will be the same complaining about "why you released it before testing it ?"

So I'm sorry but, this time we'll go through a proper Beta testing period (we are in Beta testing already, since more than a month), and we'll probably have a Public Beta too, as soon at least all the new vehicles are ready.

Ahh, this should be a WARNING for all other users who just says the Truth.
I can not count anymore the Issues and requests which are not implementet jet
and maybe never.

Dude, you saying "TRUTH!!!" after every post doesn't really make it so.
They do whatever they can with the informations they get. I highly doubt any of the team enjoys being bombarded by countless threads as much as you enjoy complaining.

Well as I see it: We all could test GSX 2 on several Airports before buying it. So we knew what we will get. I think It's very cool (and appreciated by most of the people here) that Virtualy takes our further wishes and feedback into account. But they are not obliged to. You did buy the licence for a program, you did not buy the company and are not in the position to give them orders.
Virtualy has prooved that they listen to customers. And developing a software that complex is not easy, it's always a hard decision when it's the right time to release new features. So I for myself am very happy and think they do a great job, caring for customers here in the forum while trying to repair and enhance things in a way that does not bring up 7 new errors for one fixed.
So I am very happy, of course i would love to see whats going on, but i am sure  it will be released as soon as it's safe and worth a release.

1. remember, the last update was at 7th december !!

Then i just had a short look in the Forum for rejected requests:

1. GPU Request by Markoz  : http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,7114.msg60080.html#msg60080
2. Roller Board luggage by rcoultas62 : http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,19584.0.html
3. requests without any answer: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,19151.0.html
http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,19151.0.html
4. Here he dont unerstand, that this message is absolutely nonsense, why is GSX saying that ??? : http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,17642.0.html
5. http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,16335.0.html
6. i read anywhere in the Forum about the Luggage dollies, which are filled when you start DEBOARDING...and also
if you start a flight at any Position ( not a Turnarround ), as we all do most of the times i think,  they are going away first and
come back to load the luggage in the airplane. Absolutely nonsense.
Then also the asking at every start if we want to start the engines and you have every time to answer NOOOOOO....
Just a little option in the GSX Setup or GSX Aircraft Setup would help to eliminate thi stupid question.

i forgot one: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,18453.0.html

and so on and so on ..... the list has no end
