Officially licensed content coming soon to Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition

 

Chatham, Kent – 22nd July 2016 Dovetail Games is delighted to announce that it has entered into a licensing agreement with leading aviation and aerospace company Boeing to bring officially licensed add-ons to Microsoft Flight Simulator X: Steam Edition.

I wonder about the complexity of the models they intend to develop; to that point, it would be nice to have an updated 757/767 and MD models...

I hope this partnership will extend to their new upcoming flight sim.

Good to hear.

 

I would rather hear about a 64 bit, graphics pipelined FSX, however.

Shouldn't they be working in their Dovetail Flight Simulator to meet the dateline by the end of 2016?

 

Cheers,

Where is the link DTG? It has not reported any news. The topic is old.

The point of the other topic is that "official licenses" deal with intellectual property (brands and logos, for example) and copyrights. They are completely independent of concepts like "ultimate realism" and "system depth".

 

You can develop deep systems without any official Boeing licenses involved. And you can create officially licensed addons straight from the SDK, without any sophisticated custom-coded system modeling.
