G5!</SPAN></B><BR><BR>RealFlight G5 is here -- and look out, this one is ready
for battle! How would<BR>you like to go head-to-head in aerial combat with 31
of your closest friends (or enemies)?<BR>G5 can make that happen, with four
different combat events. Outfit your aircraft<BR>with streamers...arm them
with rockets...fire machine guns or paintball markers.<BR>RealFlight G5's new
combat feature brings an exciting new dimension to R/C<BR>simulator
flying.<BR><BR>G5 also has greatly enhanced Multiplayer capabilities. Now, up
to 32 pilots can<BR>fly together over the internet or an LAN. You can host a
<I>huge</I> fun fly or dogfight<BR>to your heart's content -- with models that
are instantly repairable, and without<BR>spending gas money traveling to
events.<BR><BR>Voice Chat, too, has been improved over previous versions.
Using your headset, you'll<BR>be able to talk in real time with everyone else
in the Multiplayer session.<BR><BR><B>Combat...what's it all
about?</B><BR><BR>RealFlight's new combat features are impressive to say the
least. Four different<BR>basic games are available: Streamer Cut, Rocket Wars,
Combat and Paintball. G5's<BR>targeting system lets you to select an opponent
and track him throughout the virtual<BR>world. When you get your targeting
pips on him...<I>fire</I>!<BR><BR>In <B>Streamer Cut</B>, all participating
aircraft are equipped with different colors<BR>of streamers. You receive
points each time you clip an opponent's streamer. Points are<BR>displayed on
the Scoreboard Multiplayer gadget -- and they're deducted if you crash.<BR>You
can fly from a fixed point on the simulation or from one of G5's many new
points<BR>of view (more about this later).<BR><BR><B>Rocket Wars</B> is your
editor's favorite -- lots of noise, smoke, and fire! Make<BR>no mistake, a
great deal of skill is required to score a kill. These rockets don't<BR>track
their intended target. But if they get close, they'll explode and score on
it.<BR>Flying from the cockpit is especially fun and challenging in this mode.
You'll see<BR>rockets go by and hear them exploding behind you...and you'll
know when you've been hit.<BR>Of course, hitting the red button gets you back
up and flying instantly.<BR><BR><B>Combat</B> incorporates both rockets and
machine guns, and it can get crazy. If<BR>you miss your opponent with a rocket
from long range, you can try to get him from up<BR>close with your guns. But
remember: He's trying to get <I>you</I>, too.<BR><BR>Now it's time to get
messy. Like Combat, <B>Paintball</B> can be wild at times. Paint<BR>splatters
everywhere. And just as with real paintball markers, the speed of the
paint<BR>balls is not that fast -- you'd better lead your target well. Each
airplane has a<BR>different paint color, so you'll know who is after you. Both
the new Sopwith Pup and<BR>the big P-51 are available for this scenario. You
may want to start with the slower<BR>speed of the Sopwith, as a P-51 battle
can really heat up!<BR><BR><B>Multiplayer enhancements</B><BR><BR>Thirty-two
different pilots can now fly at the same time in a Multiplayer
session.<BR>Even with this many flying at the same time, the frame rate
remains very fast. And<BR>with the enhanced Voice Chat, your conversations are
basically as good as being face<BR>to face.<BR><BR>In G5, the host can
automate a Multiplayer session, setting up different flying<BR>scenarios from
a fun fly to all-out combat. The computer can automatically switch
from<BR>event to event after a host-determined amount of time. If you wish,
set up multiple<BR>game lists with your favorite events; then, just select a
menu item to run the game.<BR>G5 comes with several pre-programmed scenarios,
too.<BR><BR>New game gadgets are also available to enhance your Multiplayer
experience -- including<BR>Pilot status, targeting and targeting ring. And
you'll be able to create and share your<BR>own pilot profile, choosing an
avatar, name, location, tagline, favorite color and more.<BR>The profile keeps
track of how many hours you log on RealFlight. That number can be scary<BR>at
times!<BR><BR><B>Camera views</B><BR><BR>G5 could become the version of
RealFlight known as the "pick-a-view" version. When<BR>flying at a 3D site,
you'll have many different views available...and you can add<BR>even
more.<BR><BR>A few of the views available with many of the aircraft are: fixed
(ground); cockpit (some<BR>cockpits now have incredible details); nose; chase;
wing (looking at aircraft); tail camera;<BR>looking back at the aircraft and
looking out over a wing. These can all be toggled from<BR>the keyboard or
selected via the menu.<BR><BR>Not enough views for you? Add more! You can add
multiple cameras to the aircraft<BR>anywhere you'd like. You can place them
out in front, to the side, behind, under or<BR>over -- even make them movable.
You name it, it can probably be done with the aircraft<BR>editor. During a
combat game, try a cockpit view that pivots to follow the
targeted<BR>aircraft!<BR><BR><B>Aircraft and Flying Site
Editor</B><BR><BR>Significant improvements have also been made to these
editors. You now have different<BR>backgrounds to select, and different screen
layouts to better suit your needs. Adding<BR>components is simpler than ever
before.<BR><BR>Do we have your attention yet? We hope so -- but this
newsletter hasn't even begun to<BR>highlight everything about G5 that's
newsworthy. Be sure to check out all the details<BR>at
RealFlight.com!<BR><BR><B><SPAN style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt">Upgrade to
G5</SPAN></B><BR><BR>If you never took the plunge to upgrade from G3 or 3.5 to
G4 or 4.5, we have some very<BR>good news: You can use the older Interlink®
Plus controller with the new G5 software,<BR>as well as the current Interlink
Elite.<BR><BR>We also have a great software-only G5 Upgrade package for you --
priced at only $79.99.<BR>And if you've purchased G4.5 <I>very</I> recently,
there's an ever BETTER G5 upgrade<BR>deal waiting for you. Visit
RealFlight.com for more information.<BR><BR><B><SPAN
style="FONT-SIZE: 18pt">RealFlight Basic</SPAN></B><BR><BR>What's RealFlight
Basic? Well, some customers want to experience the same great
aircraft<BR>physics as the full version of RealFlight, but with a lower price
and fewer bells and<BR>whistles. So we developed an "essentials only" version
of the simulator.<BR><BR>RealFlight Basic fits into tight budgets and is still
a fine learning tool for anyone<BR>just getting into radio-control. Know
someone looking for the best flight simulator at a<BR>bargain price? Recommend
RealFlight Basic -- they'll be glad you did.<BR><BR><B><SPAN
