cassis87 Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Hi, I have noticed that all airports released are for the FTX regions.... (except AYPY I believe).... are there any plans to release some high end airports in Europe, US, Asia... for customers who "only" own the standard packs (FTX Global, Vector and LC) ?

shermank Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 I believe several airports in the various packs already released include airports outside of specific orbx areas. But, they all require at least FTX Global. Sherm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Hamilton Posted August 12, 2014 Share Posted August 12, 2014 Check the freeware page, Barth and Rugen are both Global airports. Probably as high end as you'll get without regions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Bruce but still this is not the reply I was expecting.... I was talking about payware high end airports. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vora Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 FTX airports are a selling point for FTX regions and vice versa. I wouldn't bet on a dev chiming in with "we don't wanna sell regions anymore" or " we also feel that the regions are overcrowded". For the rest of the world there are 20+ other developers. OrbX on the other hand needs FTX airports as a selling point for the two FTX regions they release each year. AFAIK, Ken Hall and Tim Harris are developing another Kokoda-like adventure pack outside the FTX regions. Tore Stranden's Narvik was supposed to be an FTX Global payware airport, but only because Sim720 was supposed to create "Norway South" this year which wouldn't have included Narvik. But they have jumped ship since and Holger&Team is creating a complete Norway now, so go figure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scianoir Posted August 13, 2014 Share Posted August 13, 2014 Hi, I have noticed that all airports released are for the FTX regions.... (except AYPY I believe).... are there any plans to release some high end airports in Europe, US, Asia... for customers who "only" own the standard packs (FTX Global, Vector and LC) ? Thank you Gregory Hi If you are looking for high end major airports, most of the payware by the quality developers (Fly Tampa, UKXtreme, Latin VFR, Aerosoft, Taxi2Gate, FlightBeam etc) work very well with FXT Global and Open LC EUR (I don't as yet use FTX Vector relying on vector data from the UTX regions). I think Orbx/FTX tend to concentrate more on developing the lesser known airports and airfields with a few exceptions mainly in Australia.

AFAIK, ORBX have pretty much abandonned the big airports in favour of the smaller and medium-sized ones, so for the big hubs I concur with Bill.

Ripcord Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 Hi Cassis87, I read your initial post, and I understand your question. The short but clear answer is no. No plans for a large high end pay-ware airport OUTISDE FTX regions, at least not as far as we know. ENNK was initially developed as a stand-alone airport for FTX Global, but now there will be a full-fat region for Norway. Tore says in that thread, however, that the airport will be compatible for both the FTX Region and Global, so perhaps this is one exception for you.

wolfko Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 I'd assume it may work with Global, but isn't there a FTX region for Norway coming up? In post #12 of the topic I had linked, Tore states that ENNK it will work with both, FTX Norway and FTX Global. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 We do plan on making high quality payware airports and other addons for FTX Global, and in fact there is an amazing scenery addon being developed right now for somewhere in southern Europe. ENNK was indeed going to be a Global airport, and there will be more like that. I guess I comes down to time/effort/reward/resources. We're not a huge company and I have always given our developers freedom to develop the airports they want to do, although I do offer guidance as to which parts of the world stuff will sell better for them.
