Looking for some Linux Testers
We are currently looking for a couple of dedicated users that can test a new upcoming Linux version of Aerofly FS2.

If you are interested please let me know.

Please note that we are only looking for possibly two users that have a good understanding of the Linux operating system and are willing to put in some time to properly test a release candidate build of Aerofly FS2 for Linux.

Testing will begin in around two weeks.

Did you have any luck with the Linux testers? If not I can spread the news.

Already posted on GaminOnLinux, another good place would be https://www.reddit.com/r/linux_gaming/

I can maybe help with this. Using SteamOS, i5 4690K, 750ti, Steam Controller.

You just got mentioned on GamingOnLinux so you might want to wait and see if you get better offers, especially from people with better machines than mine.

Very excited to hear about a new flight sim coming to linux.

I don't mind putting in some time, I use GNU/Linux every day, I have a flight stick, throttle, pedals and TrackIR. I'd have to dig them out of retirement.

Though it'd be tested on a slightly unusual machine not typically used for gaming;
x2 Xeons X5675 24 core
72GB DDR3 ECC
GTX 1050ti
850 Evo SSD

I'd be willing to test if you're still lacking testers.

Didn't notice this post until just now when it was mentioned on GamingOnLinux - but if the Linux version includes VR support, I'll be happy to both test and buy the game.

I don't have lot of time right now, but if you need I can buy the game and do some testing on Linux. My system:

OS: Ubuntu 16.04.3 kenel 4.13.0-generic
CPU: i5-3470k
GPU: RX 580 8GB with Mesa 17.3.2 (updating to 18 when it gets stable!)
RAM: 16 GB DDR3

I also have a R9 380 lying around.
I'm available as Linux tester if you want.

- ArchLinux x86_64
- i7-6700HQ
- GTX 970M (Nvidia driver)
- 16 Go RAM


I used to be WineHQ tester for some games so I'm ok with most part of "gaming problem".

Long time X-Plane on Ubuntu user. Don't actually have FS2 but would love to test.

If you still need a tester I've been using Linux for over 10 years and tested around 25 Linux ports of games over the last few years. Good luck either way!
Hi Jeff! Pato here!

As a big fan of flight simulators I can test Aerofly FS 2 on my rig:

I'm an aviation lover and played FSX and X-Plane for a long time. Actually using Arch Linux as the only OS on my PC, being only-linux user for 12 years. If you need testers, I would like so much to become a part of this.
