Bugs are anybodies guess, but I think it's safe to say the computer specs will be somewhat higher than MSTS 1. Hopefully though, the graphics engine is not quite the pig that plagues MSTS 1.-Jeff

>that plagues MSTS 1. Has anyone even mentioned that the " graphics engine " is to be canged or upgraded in 2? I don't remember reading anything about that in any official looking releases.
In all of the " What would you like in future versions " type threads I've read in the last couple years I think that there have been maybe a dozen things that have been brought up over and over again that are neet ideas for content improvement but the overwhelming main theme seems to have been to make what ever the content work properly. That, I assume, would mean giving it mainly a new graphics engine.I always thought if they put in a "good graphics engine" that a lot of us who have been improving our machines to try to make 1 work would have greatly over-built machines for running 2.Is it possible that one of the big disservices that Microsoft did in 1 was to understate the system requirements being that their engine is a " PIG "?I see a lot of your posts and I respect your input, thanks.

-----You are reading my signature now, don't waste your time reading it!-----
Or probably, maybe you should waste your time reading it.
Eh, where did my signature go?
Oh, here it is, the one you are reading right now? Can't you see it? I know I know, it's probably too bright to see it.
Hey, look at my avatar, nice right? I drew it with my own hands holding the mouse in Paint, with the pencil tool(and the Filling tool!)!
It's a picture of me in Planet Stooopid, where everything is the same as what you call "Earth" except that we are called "aliens" in your planet.
Anyway, I warned you not waste time reading my signature! You have just wasted probably about 30 seconds reading it, where you could have spent the time doing better things, like maybe reading the next post below if there is one...

You will only be able to purchase MSTS2 if you can prove that you know basic grammar and punctuation though. Else the CD will spontaneously combust the moment you put it in the drive.
