A2A announcement

@bonchie Asobo. Because it's not finished. They rekon it won't be done for at least a month after release.

Without having access to the SDK, I wonder how they know if it will be viable or accurate enough? Interesting. 

Microsoft clearly stated that 3pd has access to the SDK., They have even gone so far as to acknowledge that they know they need to provide more and clearer documentation for 3pd to take full advantage, but many developers already have projects in the works.

Only selected 3rd party developers perhaps. Which ones and why they were selected and others weren't is also interesting.

Asobo did not say certain 3PDs don't have an SDK.

The public SDK for the general partner program is not ready for release. But it's fairly clear that certain, high level 3PDs have the SDK. Aerosoft has already made comments about it and companies like PMDG and A2A are not going to bet their futures on something they haven't seen.

They've bet nothing, they've just made an announcement. They can always back out. AFAIK the SDK is simply not finished, for public or private. And plenty of devs moaning that they have to use Wasm.

Whatever. I've heard differently.

And companies don't just "back out" of major announcements to support a new sim. If they had no idea what they were getting into, they wouldn't make an announcement. PMDG and A2A didn't get to where they are because they are stupid. PMDG has already canceled P3D products to focus on MSFS. You don't do that on a wing and prayer.

When anyone reduces themselves to starting a post with "whatever" I know how much credence to attach to whatever follows it 🙄

Thank you. For the life of me I will never understand why some fellow folks are so negative.

Its almost as if there is a wish or prayer for this new Sim to fail.

Link please. Several recent posts on PMDG forums state the exact opposite about abandoning P3D.

Where did I say they are abandoning P3D? I said they canceled P3D products to focus on MSFS, which shows a serious level of commitment. I didn't say every single P3D product. They canceled the 737NG3 for P3D and will only bring it to MSFS. They said they are "pivoting their entire development" to bring the 737, 777, 747, and DC6 to MSFS. They announced that a long time ago.

PMDG NG3 (MAX) was stopped for P3D and the NG3 (MAX) is being made for MSFS2020, they released the upgrade to the NG the NGXu (U for upgrade) for P3D but the PMDG NG3 is for MSFS2020.

As Bonchie says there focus now is MSFS2020

This is really good news !

I assume accusim v4 will have things like visible icing, and utilise the same 1000 point surface calculation for the flight model etc.

it just seems strange that they will be tweaking sounds, physics and all that when the default a/c should already be very good in this regard?
