Yay!

Can you use the existing landscapes (Condir 1) with Condor 2?

What it needs is to be able to use Bing or Google earth images without having to flaff about with the landscape rubbish.

Google Maps terms of use state that redistribution of their content is forbidden and even the rules of using their maps in TV or press are quite strict. Not to mention, they clearly state that bulk downloading their data is forbidden too.

Scenery authors need to convert their landscapes for Condor 2. Some of them were part of beta team so have had the tools from us for some time. Others have just started. See http://www.condorsoaring.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=37

Chris, I'll ask again:

Is their any plan to make Condor 2 capable of supporting Virtual Reality (Vive or Rift)?

VR is a TOTAL game changer in flight simulation - it changes something like Condor from basically a procedural trainer (albeit an excellent one) to pretty close to a full-up flight simulator.

And compared to the cost of a big screen setup (especially a multi-screen setup) a good VR headset is cheap.

Head-tracking systems like Track-IR - or worse, using a hat switch or mouse to move your viewing direction - are handicaps for initial training - solved by the natural viewing habits learned in VR.

Please - consider adding VR capability as soon as possible!

There was quite a bit of 'discussion' about that on the forums and I think the official answer was no there are no plans for VR, but they are open to considering it in the future.

Hi,

It looks like I jumped the gun a little with my announcement below. Somehow I came to the conclusion that Condor2 was available for customers. It isn't quite available yet. I have received a license key for myself and installed Condor2 and it is working well. Uros at Condor says license keys for customers should be available very soon. I have received a number of pre-orders and will get keys to customers as soon as I receive them.

Quick Pre-Review
I like the new gliders in the new version (DuoDiscus, Gunau Baby, etc). I very much like that the user-interface is nearly identical to the previous version of Condor. There is no need to learn new screens or layouts. The settings are in the same locations - for the most part. The user-interface does look newer/better. I love the new details in the glider interiors and the more detailed scenery. I like that I can still bump up 1000 m with the "miracle" keyboard key and see thermals with the thermal helpers button - which is also the same key on the keyboard.

You can see many details and get the manual from the Condor web site, or my web site (link in post below).
