MK Studios Porto and Fuerteventura inbound

Featured Replies

Hi,

I missed this recently, but on MK Studios Facebook page on 13th Jan, they announced both Porto (LPPR) will be released soon followed by Fuerteventura (GCFV), which appears to be a V2 of their original scenery released in 2017.

I believe both will be for P3D v4 and v5, but haven't seen any specific confirmation of that however MK Studios do continue to develop for the older P3D version.

Both will be a purchase for me when available.No mention of pricing at this stage.

Cheers and Happy Monday!

MK Studios have the MSFS version for sale at 18 Euros. The P3D price should be identical but something tells me it won't be.

The TropicalSim version is 8.88 Euros more expensive and compatible with FSX. Not a difficult choice.

The TropicalSim version you linked is the older one. There is a newer 2022 version which was released on November 30th. simMarket: TROPICALSIM-2 - PORTO 2022 LPPR P3D5

Yes, I think its likely to be in the range of 18-27 Euros for P3D and somewhere near the mid 20s is my guess.

Their MSFS products in comparison, all seem to be targeted just short of the 20 Euro mark for MSFS. I guess they can price this differently since they can make more profit based on the larger addressable market.

If its below 20 Euros for the P3D version, I will be extremely, but positively surprised! Let's see....🤞

This does irritate me. They're going to get fewer sales with the P3D version so the sales of the MSFS one should subsidise the other. I feel we are being and fleeced to a degree. Yes, I know we should be grateful for their continued support of P3D but this wrankles.

Just on a side note regarding MK Studios, I recently installed their LPPD (Ponto Delgada Azores) scenery and found a slight discrepancy with some stand locations on the apron not matching the indicated parking labels on the apron itself.

I duly logged a Support ticket about a week ago and they have now confirmed the issue and plan to release a small update next week. That's what I call customer support! 😄

 

So for those that have purchased LPPD, look out for an update next week.
