747 Classic Progress
-
Hi, developers
It seems that another 747cl project of felis is coming soon, however it is for the x-plane. I wonder how is the development of the justflight one, what is the main reason that causes the delay of the progress?
Thanks.Hi there. Yes, our 747 is for P3D and then MSFS. It is not for X-Plane.
The main reason for the delay is that the 747 is a very large and complex aeroplane. However, we are progressing and hope it will be completed soon.

So is it possible to be available in this year? -

Totally understand your decision behind you cancelling plans for an XP version, though I would like to know if such plans do also apply to your upcoming A300 (I of course hope that this will not be the case)

The 747 was planned for P3D from Day 1, not X-Plane. I think it's unlikely we'll do an X-Plane version, but we might if there is any demand. X-Plane 12 is coming out soon of course, which might complicate matters.
The DCS version is definitely cancelled :-)
-
I don't know - it will depend how long it takes to complete it. When we have more new we will make announcements. Thank you for your interest.
@derek is there any information on what is currently being worked on in relation to the addon? Systems, model, animations, sounds, etc? I really hope there’s some fixes being applied to the model, and if that’s the case, take as long as you all need.

It's been a while since there's been any new screenshots released of this beaut - any chance we might be lucky enough get some more at some point? Or even better some sounds/footage?
Either way I've now a nice route network lined up for some Cargo Ops for when it's ready :) -
@Captain-Bakon said in 747 Classic Progress:
So October or November is a safe bet? Rich said it should be out before the end of the year is that correct?
That's correct - Rich did say that.
-
@Voice-of-Reason Is there going to be release October or November?
Will there be an Airforce One livery ... isn't it a 747 200 ?
Maybe I'm confused 🤪 -

@gabe777 They had plans to not only do an Air Force One livery, but a proper VC-25 model, however idk what the status of those plans currently are.

...Call me JFK ... ohhh prolly too early !
Who was the first president to rode the 747 ?
No doubt looks like the 800 by now, inside !
@gabe777 Surprisingly enough the VC-25 didn't enter service until 20 years after the 747, back in 1990, so Bush Sr. was the first prez to get a ride in the queen of the skies.
@Voice-of-Reason any info on what is being worked on? Systems, rework of model, both?
-
No news whatsover for a loooong time...kinda lost hope for this one.
And i got this feeling that the reason why is that they ditched P3D for a MSFS only release.Brgds,

StevenI think the Classic is niche.... O3D is slowly becoming niche.... makes financial sense I guess.

Steven@belgiantiger_2 That's not the reason but nice try. The reason as we have explained previously is because the projects lost its way and progress was painfully slow. We've now brought a new developer and new expertise onto the project but it's meant a lot of coding has has to be redone or reworked so just at the moment it's a lot of grunt work getting done meaning we're unable to give a precise update. Thanks for your patience.

I have been waiting for this for a very long time and its very sad that is still not out. I am glad that a new team is working on it but it really should have been out years ago. Time to just get it done, simplify as much as possible and get it out ASAP. At this point I would be happy if you just did the minimum to get the CLS 747-200 working in V5.
-
Nope, no simplification please. These things take time to develop & I'm more than happy to wait for a thorough systems simulation rather than anything rushed.

@simeonwilbury I agree with this, they can take as long as they need as long as they make it work near flawlessly and fix all the issues with the exterior model.
