Beta 2 is now available. Please not that while we now have AIRLANDFS support, we do NOT yet have a profile which flies well. 

For this reason we ask that everyone please wait on trying out Airland. For the next few weeks we will be working out a profile, hopefully with some community help, and then we will have something more polished to share. Until then, you may enjoy the other beta 2 upgrades in our integral flight model.

Happy Friday everyone!

This weekend we will be releasing Early Access Update # 3 for our H145 helicopter, and along with dozens of improvements and fixes it will also include the release of our H145 Civilian Variant! 

We've released a YouTube video that covers some of the new features you can expect from this weekend's update, and as a bonus it also shows the first images of our H145 Military Variant inside the sim engine!

As always you guys incredible, thank you so much for your support and being apart of this community. If we can ask just one small favor, it's that you subscribe to our YouTube channel, give us a thumbs up, leave a comment and if possible share the video on your favorite social media platform!

Did no one see the flickering and flashing clipping  textures at the bottom of the exterior cockpit at 0:59? I can't unsee it. Ironic it's the part about maintaining high quality of standards of modelling and textures. How did no one see this before publishing the video? It was literally on display for 17 seconds and no one noticed it? This is an amateur oversight..

This wasn't an oversight, the team is already aware of the flickering issue - without getting too technical, the build that was used for this video had the luxury glass in place instead of the civilian glass which caused the flickering.

The issue is already resolved in the build we intend to release over this weekend, but I unfortunately had limited time this week to record and edit so I had to use the old build for this video or there wouldn't have been any video at all to coincide with the update and some of the new tablet features may have gone unnoticed. 

 

Can hardly wait. @HPGAny more previews of the civilian liveries?

Please?

Yep.. Never going to buy this regardless how good it is. Their crowdfunding method to support whatever this is turned me off. I'm old school.. Shut up or put up. I hate groveling for cash developers. If you think you're that good find other methods to support cause.. Like taking in a line of credit like most people.

Well considering your attitude towards this from day 1 it's not surprising you found something to criticize while throwing insults at the Dev in the process (again)  Dev has already responded that was not the final texture and it has been addressed.  What's your next issue with it?  

Honestly the 145 is getting better and better with every release, adding functionality, adding variants and despite your negativity towards it the project seems to have dedicated developers delivering on what they promised and very pleased customers...

We only created 4 liveries, really trying to keep the file size down for users since each variant is its own aircraft and file size can creep up quickly - we also know the awesome community will do a lot of neat liveries on their own.

 

 

EDIT - I am trying to upload some additional photos, but I have the sad fortune of my internet being out currently and having to use mobile hotspot which isn't cutting it for these uploads for some reason. Will try to add those images ASAP though.

Thanks very much, really looking forward to what you've created with this update. 🙌

And unlike others who have used similar statements I stand by this. I'm not buying it. 

I've mostly stayed out of this thread since then to not be that "guy". With all the hype and promotion since then and to watch 59 seconds of a video and see clipping textures while bragging about modelling and texture standards in a promotional video. I couldn't not comment. I mean come on? They were practically asking for it. I have no ill will towards HPG and I'm sure they even would say. Maybe not publicly.   "You know, he has a point".

It's not what you say it's how you say it.  Trust me, I'm from Jersey too, I know a dig when I see one. 

And as someone who has no interest in this product what do you care?  Just here to throw things from the peanut gallery?

It's a public forum. For all to see, read, say and comment on. I read and observe everything here.

That's what open forums are for. Maybe my approach was a bit too "Jersey" but come on you have to admit I had a valid point. Tough love is still love.

How is calling them a "groveling for cash developer" and then only coming back to call their flickering texture an "amateur oversight"  while completely ignoring everything else they showed in that video tough love?  Topo map integration, chart integration, neofly integration, new variants, new features but sure the only thing you saw was a flickering texture and it's tough love.  Sure. 

You said you stayed away to not be "that guy" it's funny I tend to ignore projects I have no interest in from developers I think are groveling for cash not come back to comment on them and critique when I've never actually owned the product and the people that do all seem to be really pleased with it...
