Default Condor2, inbound on final glide!

This Condor2 license key issue from last night has been resolved. Please try again with the same key.

I know this is a bummer. I know you want to try out Condor2. I'm sorry about the issue, but confident they'll have it resolved very soon.

I get the same error. Paul Remde reports others are experiencing the same issue.

I ordered Condor directly and didn’t have any issues. Condor itself is a big leap forward. I flew default task in Std Cirrus using thermals and some ridge. Landscape looks great. Tow rope on airtow can break now too! Glider looks very nice, reflections on the canopy, 3D screws and instruments . Nice clouds, lights and haze. Lots of changes that make immersion full. Enjoyed my flight and slept like a baby. Now can’t wait to come from work and continue on converting Blairstown NJ to Condor2

Regards,
Stan

Does anyone have the flap settings vs speed for an Antares 18 - ideally in kts or a picture of the POH ASI flap ring? Either empty or fully ballasted?

Same question for Diana2.

OK, yes, I could go on the website (Condor or yours).....if you had the original version paid for, is there a price break to upgrade?

Condor is not currently offering a discount on Condor2 for Condor (1) users. The two products are quite different. The new version has different gliders and much better graphics. It also requires a more powerful computer and graphics card.

Condor2 is finally here/around the corner. The new site is up, the old forum imported to the new one, and the store is up (buy links not active yet but prices are there)

Yay!


I flew with Condor2 for an hour last night and was favorably impressed. Aside from the graphics improvements, the glider's handling and response (Dana 2) seemed more realistic. Thermals seemed a bit wider in diameter with the core lift falling off at a more gradual rate, making it much easier to center lift. I always felt the thermals were unrealistically tight in the original Condor. Towing is MUCH better with a longer rope. I set up a wave situation and was able to find and stay in lift. I couldn't get any lennys to show up though. Flying in ridge lift seemed about the same. The lack of airplanes is a concern, especially since it looks like they will be selling individual planes for 8-12 euro each. that might hurt organized competitions like nightly soaring that count on everyone having the same class or model of ship for many races. Looking forward to participating in the first real race...

The way the gliders fly is very realistic, even better than the original,
but what a peculiar set of gliders, certainly some are not representative
of modern use. The original was far more representative. No glass training
glider, a Duo is not a basic trainer, not even a K13, and I thought Genesis
was grounded years ago, maybe I'm wrong. Perhaps a marketing ploy, so we
buy new ones.
To render all the work that has been done by keen flyers all over the world
in producing scenery invalid is a bit unkind, I only hope that it is easy
to make the old compatible with the new.
Overall, some good improvements, but can't help being a bit disappointed.
Dave

Converting v1 landscapes to v2 is not an easy... it needs to be rebult from scratch for the most part.
I was able to salvage old textures, which is good because it was one of the difficult tasks in V1, but in V2 all the tasks are difficult due to increased details plus some optional tasks like adding water etc. Overall, after spending a week, very tedious process, but it’s promising - our local ridge at Blairstown NJ looks really great even partially done.
