Doggie Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) After getting to know that there will only be a black and white manual, and that plus shipping to me could cost me $60+. I decided to print my own. Cost breakup HP DeskJet 1180C cartridge =$ 25.50 A4 Paper 110 grams =$ 2.50 Ring binding and title lamination =$ 3.00 ________ Total =$ 31.00 What do you think ?

Distiler Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Cool, but I think the new and printed manual will have 6 more chapters, like going from 300+ to 500+ pages think. I wonder if this expanded manual it's going to be in pdf format for free.

Distiler Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Well, I don't know if they consider this new manual an update of the existing and they'll put it for current customers as a pdf, like they will do with free DCS patches (not only correcting bugs, but also giving better terrain engine, etc.) or they will consider it a new product and charge for it as a paper book or even in and hypotetical pdf versión. In any way, the current manual will be outdated when the first patch arrives, so there will be, I hope, an updated pdf for downloading. I wish it's not only corrected but also expanded.

I wonder if this expanded manual it's going to be in pdf format for free. What would be these extra pages about? If you live to fly again, it's a successful landing. The plane being able to fly again is just a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tnt Snipes Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 Extra chapters just include extra topics one would not ever want to go through... Unless he/she is interested in the helicopters dynamics n stuff... So i think they are of no use... [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bumfire Posted April 2, 2009 Share Posted April 2, 2009 (edited) Owww, so the manual that ED is releasing is only going to be in black and white format ? I didnt know that and if that is the case I will give it a miss, as I aint paying £30ish quid for a black and white manual [EDIT BY MOD: RULE 1.8], it really needs to be colour regardless of the extra chapters as they probably wont tell us anything that we already didnt know about the sim or the helo. Please ED, release a colour version of the manual, cuz I think everyone will want a colour one rather than black and white. Ahwell, after finding out the manual is BW only, I am kinda pissed off :( BTW, excellent job OP, that manual looks great ;) Edited April 3, 2009 by Acedy Rule 1.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
