hey all,
This might be a bit of a silly question but I have always been curious to know if there are any accessible flight or train simulators on IOS or mac?
I would say probably not but I'm still going to put it out there because it is something I would love to see one day.

I haven't seen any, but it would be cool if this was a thing.

I personally play mainstream flight simulators on a Bootcamped Mac.

Nothing on train sims yet :( and Tube Sim is okay, but it does get boring after a bit.

Yes. They were designed specifically for the blind community. I personally played both and find them way more interesting than anything I’ve ever played in the past. Eurofly in particular is such an in-depth experience and will take a few days to learn. Just learning to take off is an experience in itself.
I really wish they were on Mac; Then we wouldn’t have to mess around with getting sAPI sorted and everything.

I have never played anything like this before. I have downloaded Eurofly. I have established a profile and now I have to fly somewhere. The only thing I was able to do is make a door open. Tried finding help within the game but couldn't find a thing. If anyone has some hints or suggestions, it is much appreciated.

I think you might be lucky to find good help on the audio games foram or check out Liam's stream of that game on youtube. I'm talking about Liam Ervin.

The Eurofly website has very in-depth help in the help centre. Take your time reading it all and it will become clearer after a while.
Tip, start the engines with the page down and page up.

i do wish the game had a training mode where it talked you through everything.

Is anyone else having problems with the TubeSim installer? I can't get it to work at all. Trying to install on a Windows 10 machine with plenty of processing power and 8GB RAM, and I've also tried on a Windows 7 virtual machine. The installer quits on the Windows 10 machine having barely started, and on the Windows 7 machine I get a message that the system has insufficient resources - which can't be right.

I mannaged to install it on a windows 7 vertual machine no problem. Have you tried changing the machine's settings?
