Avwriter Posted April 23, 2020 Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 4 hours ago, crbascott said: From a pure tower perspective, the return to airport situations aren't that much different than a go around - at least for the size of airports we see in T!3D. The bulk of the actual return to the airport work is handled by departure and approach controllers. Obviously, once on the ground there is some special handling but I don't foresee that happening. But you never know. Good points Craig. It's deceptively easy to forget that departure/approach is not a part of it when I'm not actually playing. I guess to really throw a wrench in the works, we need for departing planes to get out to the runway and then then ask to return to the gate for whatever reason. The occasional rejected takeoff might also add in a little chaotic fun 🙂 Andrew 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelThere_Vic Posted April 23, 2020 Author Report Share Posted April 23, 2020 Folks, Let's keep the suggestions in the Wishlist topic, please. In the meantime here are some new liveries. Yes, yes I realized it too as soon as I posted it. It will be fixed (cargo without the windows) 🙂 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonas243 Posted May 3, 2020 Report Share Posted May 3, 2020 Oh wow, i havent played for quite a while and decided to have a look in the forum these days! This looks and sounds veery good so far, i´d love to see some more of the weather or some airport views as soon as you have something to share 🙂 Thanks for the insight ^^ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FeelThere_Vic Posted May 4, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 We are still using the "old" airports as we are developing brand new materials for the airports itself, but let me show you some drying concrete after the rain 🙂 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonas243 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 Wow, the weather already looks way better. There definetely need to be new ground textures/lights and new buildings. But as you said, you are in development. But the old airport already looks quite good with just some new weather in place 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenturaGuy101 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 @FeelThere Vic so far the visuals are looking really great. I am hoping that you will be able to showcase some of the new and improved "game-play" features soon(TM). Are there user selectable options for the new weather that you are showing? Will there be options for selecting the FeelThere airline schedule vs Real Schedule without having to install and uninstall Real Schedule? Thanks for sharing.

This massive semi-transparent lake can't be the final result. Drying concrete after rain looks quite different in the real world. But I don't want to be overcritical either. Much more important to me than the graphics is the (as free as possible) communication with the pilots, instruments/systems that come close to reality and realistic behaviour of pilots, aircraft and ground vehicles. Will you publish a roadmap so that we can follow the development progress and get an idea of what you plan to include in the new version? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crbascott Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 I'm sorry, but the old airport buildings and ground textures aren't doing it for me. The new plane models just get lost in the drabness. However, for whatever reason, the area surrounding the airport looks better to me. But from a pure graphics perspective thus far, and I know it is early still, my excitement level is at about 5 or 6 out of 10. Overall, I'll need to be closer to a 9 in order to purchase along with the confidence that development support (for what I hope is a sim and not a game) won't be dropped after a year. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it might be a year or two before the infield dries and the airport is usable. 😉 First it was the pandemic and now it's the FeelThere Flood. When will it stop?!? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VenturaGuy101 Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 Craig, Looks like someone else is inundated other than the airport. 😄 Hope all is going well considering the world situation. I am with you that I really want to see the changes in features other than the better textures. Especially the features that increase the simulation quality. Take care. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ATC AlaskaGuy Posted May 4, 2020 Report Share Posted May 4, 2020 well this looks like KLAX only thing i notice in these photos of the next version is that there are no jetways to connect to the planes which i am sure will be added to eventually but other then that the graphics look great to me a lot better then what we have now.

Vic mentioned earlier that the first picture was from KLAX and the viewpoint hasn’t really changed. No argument that it’s “better then what we have now”. But isn’t that a low measuring stick considering this is a brand new version that will cost between $XX and $XXX when all is said and done?

Vantskruv Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Quoting FeelThere: "We are still using the "old" airports as we are developing brand new materials for the airports itself, but let me show you some drying concrete after the rain 🙂 " So the airports showing in the pictures is not the Tower3DXX ones, therefore bad textures and polygons. The atmosphere, shaders and lightning though is the effect from Tower3DXX. (Correct me if I am wrong). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will you publish a roadmap so that we can follow the development progress and get an idea of what you plan to include in the new version? Indeed it will look different once we add the new airports. The current airports aren't mapped for real reflection so they are reflecting everywhere. This is one of the reason why we are not yet sure how we can address backward compatibility. Roadmap? Yes, I would like to have something like that. Either a blog, or some screenshots like these, but I would like to keep you in the loop for sure. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig, No point to even comment on the airports. These are placeholders, you wont see them in the new version. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
