April 13, 201610 yr Hello all!I would like to know and I'm sure that there are others wondering if your going to create the PMDG series airframes for dovetail?
April 13, 201610 yr Who knows.... Trying to get information from PMDG is as tough as getting updates from PMDG - lol!!! Dave Robertson BE20, BE35, BE02, C560, CRJ, MD80, E190, B777
April 13, 201610 yr It is unlikely that they will be able to answer that until, A. A lot more is known about the new product's capabilities, structure, and its compatibility with 3rd party add-ons. B. the product is actually released, and it becomes clear whether it meets the expectations of with PMDG's customer base. Andrew Jones
April 13, 201610 yr It is a bit too early although there is the DTG Flight School comming soon it is really made to engage people into learning how to fly and all, the DTG flight Simulator is planned for later this year so we'll probably see what it will be worth around the end of the year if it is released as planned.

April 14, 201610 yr It most likely will be many years before enough people acquire DTG's new sim to make it worthwhile for developers to start making products for it. Most people are still hanging on to FSX.

I think developers (and specially big ones) know more about the product with waaaaaaaay more anticipation then you would, and not after release... Case in point: ORBX...
April 14, 201610 yr Yeah.. I think developers (and specially big ones) know more about the product with waaaaaaaay more anticipation then you would, and not after release... Case in point: ORBX... Ahah yeah ORBX is with them, but somehow I think it is a bit different ORBX working on sceneries which is "easier" as I believe both FSX, P3D and probably DTG all share the same original code base, and same "structure". And there is less "bug" and issues with adding scenery or even replacing textures than wiith code heavy addons like PMDG Aurelien Vandoorine

April 15, 201610 yr It most likely will be many years before enough people acquire DTG's new sim to make it worthwhile for developers to start making products for it. Most people are still hanging on to FSX. DTG is already working with several developers. Quietly and without much fanfare. The fact that no public announcements are being made does not imply it is not happening.
April 15, 201610 yr Commercial Member Couple things here: Sign your posts. Forum rule. That whole idiom about bridges and crossings... Do not generate negative theories here about other developers. There really isn't much known about this simulator in general. Putting across the idea that a developer is going to set up exclusive relationships for add-ons is pretty irresponsible. I doubt it was an intentionally negative inference, but it's a pretty baseless assertion at this early stage. Kyle Rodgers

April 16, 201610 yr Me either. Hope you guys are more attentive as pilots Understand though...you see a comment and dive in, not really remembering what forum your are in, though, Kyle's comments pretty correct. DTG do not seem to share early work with major developers, and sort of present it as..."our stuff works, up to others to decide if yours' will work". Must be a code planning nightmare for developers now with many platform flavours, all with their own user populations..all saying to developers..me..me..me Geoff Bryce

Talk about baseless banter. You must have some insider information that no one else has. Let me guess.... you want 64bit. Josh Daniels-Johannson
