Current version is 1.02, for FSX , P3D v2 and FSX-SE.
Cheers,

I'm assuming that if you've bought it as a pre-release / beta directly from Metal2Mesh, that you've still able to download it from the Metal2Mesh website?
I'd check for myself, but my M2M login credentials reside in a little password book at home on my desk, which is where I'm not.

Looks magnificent! Also looks like I'll need to upgrade my rig to use it properly, but well done you lot!

Yeah.. I wondered about that too. The published specs at Just Flight are.. well.. ridiculously low. My rig (i5 2500K/3.3-3.7gig..Win7Ult..8gig ram..Palit GTX560Ti 1.2gig) far exceeds it but I've more than a feeling in my water that it would struggle. I could get it for a song with my JF points too but I'm loathe to buy it fearing it would run like a 3-legged dog.

Guys, the M2M Mirage 2000 is extremely FPS friendly!! Hence the low specs........
Hank
No problems with the mirrors in FSX Dave, but will do some further checking within P3D. Though I must say I hadn't noticed any problems within P3D so far.
Cheers
This is easily some of the best modeling work of a combat plane for FSX I've ever flown. It's so immersive and my system can handle it. If you like combat aircraft and don't have this yet, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
A definite "must-have" item.

I bought into the pre release beta early on and performance has been fantastic all the waynthrough...mirrors can be disabled in P3D also. I've been using it on p3dv2 for a long time albeit without TP until it was recently released. it's super smooth!

DaveB, no problem just using ctr+E for quickstart, only a few switches extra (for HUD and generator) and you can go for a spin
Hank
Ok Hank.. cheers Something a little more elegant would be nice but Ctrl+E will do nicely

hahahahahaha... cheers Hank
Well.. I bought it. Not only that.. I took the unusual step of looking at the manual. I didn't get very far though.. you need a LOT more than a couple of minutes to even glance through it let alone take any of it in!!
How does it run on my i5?? Actually, not bad.. not bad at all. I am getting some micro-stutters.. not all the time but they're there nonetheless. Anyone running the MV F-15 on a similar rig can expect similar performance I reckon. The Mirage is certainly no worse. To give prospective buyers an idea.. here's what I'm running FSX on:
Win7 Ultimate (64-bit)
Asus P8P67 mobo (rev1)
Intel i5 2500k 3.3-3.7gig (not overclocked)
8gig DDR3 RAM
Palit GTX560Ti 1.2gig DDR5
OS on a 250gig SSD
FSX on a Sata3 WD512gig HD
GenXv3/Treescapes on a Sata2 WD512gig HD
I'd consider this pretty much 'minimum spec'. Anything less and you'd be asking for trouble unless your sim settings were cranked down to compensate.

Yep, the starting routine is quite quick and easy. The first time I d/l'ed the beta, I was able to get it started up without much difficulty at all. In fact, I spent more time looking around the v/c thinking I had more switches to flip than that! Compared to some of the other aircraft in my hangar, it's a nicely 'simple' jet to fly. There's depth, but it's still possible to take it up for a quick spin without having to open a textbook.

Thanks Jimmy
My first flight was (cough) ctrl+E but I'll make an effort. The annoying warning lamp has to go so I need to know how to kill it (not the one that resets when pressed) The FD is unusual and a joy to fly.. especially from the tower view where you can admire your skills (or lack of)!
It really is beautifully made. I spent 20mins just looking at it in admiration. The detail.. the paint (only 1 I've looked at thus far.. Prototype). I've yet to delve into the VC. TBH, it's wasted on me. A very large percentage of what it can do I'll probably never see (like the MV F-15). I don't have TacPak.. yet. Pity about the micro-stutters but they're present all the time and generally.. it seems to put less load on my rig than the MV P-38 surprisingly enough. Still.. I'm a happy chappy. Off to find that 'what if' RAF paint now.

Without Tacpack, can you still load rockets and tanks, albeit as static displays?
Thanks - Rob
