Sorry but subscription is the only sustainable way to keep the program updated.

If there will be one time pay for decent price, I’m buying it. Subscriptions? Hell no.

I like the idea, but with this kind of layout, it’s unlikely many people will prefer the pro version over the original tank inspector. The pleasing, simple layout with the 3d model front and center and just a pullover for the stats is just a better design for the average user.

Of course, I suppose the people who’d pay for this are unlikely to be your average user. I just think it’s a little too data-y, even for me.

I’m sure many bloggers/videomakers will cry tears of joy reading this. No more tedious comparison of each and every model looking for undocumented changes at each patch ! And it’s so nice to see such a neat software coming from Chinese devs. Congrats to Smellyriver, or whatever your team is called now. :)

Hi,
Actually we’ve spent more than 2000 man-hours on developing this program, which, in the price of our salary, is more than $40000. We never expected to make money from this program, just trying to get a little compensation to make this project sustainable. So thanks for your support and understanding.

Hi,
We do received some reports of not being able to connect. This is most probably because your ISP got our server blocked. We are considering to migrate our service to a better place like Amazon at some time.

Sorry but we thought it might be too early to discussed on that, so nothing could be guaranteed.

The latest version of Tank Inspector already has the offline mode. You are only required to login once.

I have been a tester a long while and was hoping we would get Pro for free as some of us put a lot of time and effort making threads for feature requests etc.

Was this decided?
