747 Classic Progress

[Martyn]

Yes, we'll be including a variety of custom cockpit sounds.

[Captain Bakon]

Is the night lighting almost complete?

[Rich]

Not quite yet, but we at least have some work-in-progress shots we can show you now.
More pics coming soon.

[Noob21]

That is some delicious looking night lighting. Can’t wait for more images. Hopefully we can get some images of the GE and RR liveries as well.

Can you please forward this on to the relevant department please. I would VERY MUCH enjoy, appreciate and INSTANTLY PURCHASE the upcoming 747 Classic from Just Flight. This looks very exciting. Can you please add in my FAVOURITE airline of all time, British Caledonia as a livery option please, I would love to see the that repaint on the 747.

Just saw the pics of the night lighting just one question: will there be a way to control the brightness or is it on/off?

We'll be releasing a number of livery packs for the 747, so I'm sure we'll cover British Caledonia in one of those.

Each lighting circuit is independently controllable and fully dimmable. It's powered by the latest version of RealLight.

Is July a good month for the initial release?

[Noob21]

That sounds optimistic at least and unreal at most. My guess is late August, early-mid September.

No, not realistic. Not too long after that but no firm news on release just yet.

Thanks for your interest.

[Captain Bakon]

I've been told in the 2nd post we will be seeing it this summer.

[Roebuck]

I'd imagine as with any development process things like timings are subject to change. It's difficult for a developer to give a firm date on any FS platform.

[Voice of Reason]

@Captain-Bakon Definitely the intention. Does Indian Summer count though? :)

Joking aside, it's getting there, still a fair amount to get done, tested, redone...I'm sure you can imagine....

[Captain Bakon]

Yes I can and thank you for the effort to bring us a study level classic!

[Captain Bakon]

Any progress made? Any more night pictures?

[Martyn]

Lots of progress made in a variety of areas. We'll be sharing new pictures soon.

[Captain Bakon]

I just saw the new pictures posted on your facebook, I guess a July release is out of the equation, will it be released next month?

[Martyn]

Unfortunately we won't be committing to a particular release date or period at this stage. We'll be sure to share that information here when it is available though.

@Martyn Great job on the main instrument panel textures. That really has come along and it looks so realistic. I can’t wait to try this aircraft in VR. We’ve waited years for this version of the 747 and I think it’s going to be worth the wait.

[Captain Bakon]

I guess it’s not coming this summer, that is a MASSIVE bummer :(
