Hi all,

Just thought to inject an update for those who may not be following this project. I have quoted some verbals from Brano (Developer) in a recent update

"The breadth of the scope of possible Outerra applications is huge, and we are also investigating other possibilities to launch development of other OT-based projects. A hot candidate is a unified simulator platform with the primary initial focus on a flight simulator, as it makes the largest group of inquiries we are getting. This would mean a dedicated development team working closely with the core, and in cooperation with content makers working on scenery, aircraft, simulation cores for flight and other types of vehicles.

In any case, a project of this scale would require a sufficient funding, and so we are currently discussing the development of a prototype usable for launching a Kickstarter funding campaign with several interested developers."

Think about it .. what dose Outerra have to offer now Lockheed/Martin are in the game ? ..... be a huge task to try and compete .

You would be surprised Ian. From talking with Brano, the developer I have a feeling that there is much bigger potential now than there ever was for this to be a mainstream FS. We will see over time of course, i'm keeping an open mind.

Take a look at a video I made using TrackIR in Outerra.

If you watch the releases on many sites you see many new files released for X-Plane - seems like Outerra may join X-plane and will be in the backseat to Flightsim next/new owner, now you have prominent aviation and aircraft names 'Lockheed and Martin' entering the simulation scene I think they will end up on the same back seat.

I suppose we'll wait to see where it goes. The one to satisfy the masses will come out on top and Prepar3d is struggling right now if you see feedback on their forums. LM may have a trump card to pull out.

Same very thing happened with Flight Unlimted 1-2-3 packages and Fly 1-2-3 was another twenty years back , simply they fizzled out due to limited design and builds and the option and ability to build on it , P3D may not be struggling .. its the transition stage .
