    If you are going to accuse me of the (NoXP) tag to try to make it look like I am guilty, then I will get into it and give people more details.  GoranM, I have tried to avoid you in this thread, but si

  • I suspect this is going to shatter all past Toliss sales.  Happy for us and for them.  Looking forward to the plane.  

  • Their systems are about as deep as you'll see in desktop flight simulation.  Airbus is actually a commercial customer of Toliss and no, I didn't write that the wrong way around.

I wonder if this is Toliss's first step into the MSFS market. From the Navigraph survey and SteamDB numbers, the MSFS market dwarfs the XP 12 market, especially when you factor in tne XBox market. 

This reminds me of Heatblur from DCS World. Their first MSFS add-on was a collaboration with India Echo Foxtrot. And then for their next add-on, Heatblur decided to do it all themselves, without collaboration (Heatblur misf have also made enough in sales on their first add-on, to convince themselves it was worth their time to work on a second add-on for MSFS).

I guess we will see where Toliss heads, but it's always smart to diversify, especially when the MSFS market is so much more lucrative.

That will be interesting... since iniBuilds also announced an A340 yesterday.

For transparency: I'm a community mentor at the BATC discord. However, I do not get paid for it in any way.

From Toliss social media, it seems they will only provide the systems to Aerosoft, not building the entire aircraft themselves. According to their posts, they remain committed / exclusive to XP. We'll see. I think it's wonderful for both Toliss and MSFS... and us consumers. The Toliss A346 in XP is fantastic.

Aerosoft certainly need help with systems.  Perhaps they can get Carenado to handle the modelling and texturing...

How are Toliss aircraft systems generally?  Decent depth?

Well... they managed to create a taxi camera at the very least. That's pretty impressive. I thought that wasn't even possible (yet) due to MSFS limitations.

That's insanely good news for our hobby. I hope they will consider other widebody Airbus aircraft next to the A340-600. An A330 NEO would be a dream...

Aerosoft/Toliss will take a significant chunk of A340 sales from Ini given the depth of Toliss systems in XP. Many are saying their version will be superior given past history.

That depends. The Toliss is just the 600. I don't know what Inibuilds is cooking in that regard.

From the registration that they showed in the video (D-AIGU), an A340-300. 

Apologies to FBW, and their superb A380, but the A340-600 is my dream Bus! 

Surely not everybody was kung fu fighting.

Based on what I see in the video, that’s just the default 2020/2024 synthetic vision ‘camera’ that only renders the terrain, they just have an A340 overlaid over it.

If you look closely the ground textures in the camera view don’t match the ones outside the cockpit window, that’s because it’s only rendering the satellite imagery, not the airport scenery.
