    Foresight Fitting App upgrade for FSX 2020 promised at 2020 PGA Show...?

    Does anyone have any info on the Fitting App upgrade that was promised by Foresight Execs on video at the PGA Show 2020. ?? It was to be a free of charge upgrade for FSX2020.
    I have asked Foresight UK but their response is that they don't get told by Foresight US about new releases.
    Rumours are around about new engine in January, I wonder if they plan to release the fitting app then and if it will still be free to FSX2020 purchasers.

    I have heard from my rep it's still in development, to be released soon... which could mean anywhere from a few weeks to 6 months probably. He says it is free for users who have FSX2020 though.

        I have been asking Foresight US and Foresight EU about this. They are being extremely cagey and reluctant with their responses. One liner replies with zero info. Videos from the PGA Show 2020 where they herald the new app as FOC for FSX 2020 owners have been removed from their webpage.

        I suspect that they have had a change of heart with regard to the FSX Pro app heralded by top Foresight Sports Execs at the PGA 2020 show as being free of charge for existing FSX 2020 owners.

        It will be interesting to see their explanation if they decide to try to charge for it on release, when the videos from the PGA show start to get published online again,potential customer relations disaster looming........

        Perfect business example of how to disengage existing customers and destroy trust...

          Any link on youtube to any of these videos showing it being FOC for existing software owners?

            I don't have a link and I have not looked on Youtube for the videos but I distinctly remember watching at the time of the PGA show where I think the VP of Foresight was trumpeting about how they had listened to everyone and were producing a new fitting app that was FOC for existing FSX 2020 owners.
            I can't find the videos now as I think they have been taken down from Foresights own site. However I have an extensive email chain where I have been discussing the new app with Foresight Sports UK support arm and they have stated to me that it is FOC.
            The responses to my query from US and UK Foresight were pathetic and frankly insulting to someone who spent £3k on software alone with them.
            I hope I am wrong and that they will honour the promise but the nature of the replies I have received give me the feeling that they will lump it in with the new engine release and charge for it.

          Found a link to where the Foresight execs talk about new app and refer to it as being part of FSX 2020. From about 2.00 minutes onward.

            I'm still hearing from a reliable source that it is free for FSX 2020 customers. I would wait until the app is released before jumping to conclusions.

              Let's hope you're right. I think we're all bracing ourselves for another Foresight disappointment as it relates to software side of the equation. As Kmurray stated, we've all spent a pretty penny for this software (that frankly, relative to it's peers in the market, is grossly lacking).

                What is an absolute scandal is them wanting £6,000 for the club add-on...
