Idea for next project?

Hi Guys,

(sorry if I'm not in the correct place but did not find a place for futur project)

Now that Precision Ma[...] abandoned the MD-11 in prepar3d, there is no serious alternative to flight the fabulous MD-11. Maybe CaptainSim would develop something for this bird in P3D?

Thank you in advance Wink

IMO they should stay away from glass cockpit and modern aircraft and stick with the analog one.I just bought their l1011 and holly **** its a quantum improvement compare to their previous product in term of system. So i think DC-10,early A300/310, and B747 classic is their best option.

plus they made their own version of INS. so i think it would be kind of a waste if they decide to make MD-11 or any other modern aircraft. Grin Grin

I agree. I think its unlikely they will make a modern aircraft. The community on this forum had a vote some years ago and while the results were never published, it seems the B747-100/200 was the clear favourite.

We will find out in good time as the next project is currently being worked on, and I also hope it's the 747-100/200. Wink

Yes please im begging CS to make the 747 classic line up...

cargo and pax version of the 747-100 / 747-200 / 747-300 and the pax version of the 747-SP

that by far would be the best addon ever..!

Second option would be the DC10 family.

third option would be MD11 family

Classic 747 is also my bet or at least a great DC-10, good system depth and INS + TCAS configurable. Hopefully not a Caravelle or a DC-8-50/60 (in development by one already) or another of these very vintage birds.  Smiley

Win any product - vote for the next project
Apr 14th, 2015 at 9:49pm

April 2017 will soon be here. Has Captain Sim ceased production and letting the web site run it's course? I check the site on a regular basis and there has been no activity since 2015 other than the annual 24 hour sale. Is the Captain Sim team alive and well or closing up shop? Don

Three posts above yours, I said "the next project is currently being worked on", so the answer to your question is no, Captain Sim have not ceased production. Wink

Hopefully we will find out what the next project is fairly soon. Grin

One of the last interactions I had with Captain Sim was with regard to the TCAS on the 777.  On about February 27, 2016 a revision was issued: "The TCAS problem has been fixed, and repacked in an updated installer. Use the Extended Download Service and download the 777-200 Base Pack".  So I know they are still issuing updates at least.  Patiently waiting for the release of their next aircraft.

I vote for 747-100/200/300. It seems it's been ignored for modern simulators. FS9 had a pretty good one from Ready For Pushbback. I'd love to see what CS could do with it. Easily one if not the most recognizable aircraft. I wouldn't mind seeing them do a classic airbus too. Boeings seem to be their thing though.

DC-10 would be cool too. I love the DC-10.

I just hope they add a version with a cabin. That's one of my favorite things to do in FS. Sit in a cabin.

One thing I wish they'd do is make it where you can see the cabin in the VC version of the 777. They said they would in a post a couple years ago. Just cut the cabin a little.

My vote is for the DC-10. Nobody has come close to doing that aircraft justice yet.

+1
But if not a DC-10, then a classic 747-100/200 would be fun.

My vote was for the 747-100/200 and then the DC-10

The 777 1.8 is not the project they have been working on?  Wink I don't hope so.

I agree. We need something like a 747. It would be a pity if they spent nearly a year just working on a few fixes for the 777.
