What is the status of CP now after migration to ORBX //42?

Featured Replies

@Keven Menard as one of your customers I got the email today explaining the situation and I really look forward for the new Skypark. However reading the email twice I still can't really find the answer of these two questions:

1) Who is now responsible for Chaseplane? You, ORBX or Parallel42? 

2) You mention a slowdown of development the last 2 years which is true. Is now development going to restart for Chaseplane? Is it going to be more refined and get new features ?

1: The ChasePlane IP is 100% owned by me. Parallel 42 (that includes me) is licensed to market, distribute, update and support the software.

2: Development of Immersion Packages has already picked up but ChasePlane will not see additional features for the time being (unless a crazy idea comes to mind). With MSFS around the corner, we want to put our energy towards releasing The Skypark until we have what we need from Asobo to R&D a new camera system for MSFS.

I hope this answers your question!

Thank you very much for the comprehensive reply Keven! You answered all my questions. I have all your products and will continue to support you and Parallel 42 because you bring excellent quality to our simulations : )

Hi Keven

So, I made the migration from OldProp to ORBX //42. CP works OK with no problem.

The only concern I have is that CP does not restore some key presses for navigation (mainly key presses allowing several views using the same key press)

It is not a big problem, but I have to restore these for every airplane.

Thank you for your good products and support.

Patrice.

I'm quite disappointed with the loss of the community presets since the migration. And judging by the statement made last week it doesn't look like it'll be coming back any time soon.

 

Which is a shame because that was one of the main reasons I bought CP in the first place rather then continue investing in Ezdok at the time, I hate spending time setting my own presets and far preferred the obvious advantage of importing other peoples in a matter of seconds.

That's why we are supplying a bunch of default presets for the most important aircraft you might have in your collection.

You can also import from other aircraft directly in the app, making it really easy to setup
