4.12 development update discussion and feedback

I hardly ever fly. I'm too busy making vaporware.

To be honest, doing stuff for this sim interests me more than flying it. I was the same way with hobby racing: build a motor, then wonder who will drive it. Never seemed to occur to me that I could. One day I DID drive one, and I learned why I'd rather build; I like it better when someone else is scared....

Maybe I like it better when someone else is shot down.

Speaking of which! How is that B24 -D yourself and Monguse are working on coming along? I saw the shots of your work in the relevant thread on this forum, it looks FANTASTIC
Will it make it into a patch anytime soon?

I don't know what the team's priorities are as soon as 4.12 is wrapped up (there's just too much we still want to do). I'm a model-texture guy only, so I can only say that I'll fix whatever they don't like as soon as it comes up. Guse, on the other hand, is more than just a model-texture guy, and he has laid down a lot of the ground work that the programmers would otherwise have to do when attention turns to this model. Put plainly, Guse has done eveything possible to have it ready for the programmers to give it a heartbeat. Sorry I can't say anything more helpful. Please believe that the delays don't mean trouble; they just mean our enthusiasm is making a lot of work for us again. Even as I drool over having my 1st cockpit in the game, I am up to my eyeballs in another project for the team (and you all of course). That one I can't talk about yet, because projects have to survive some serious teething before we can entertain some cautious hope that they will live.
