AH Caravelle

[gaab]

Unless you are interested in how we managed to condense uv_Channel_2 to a lower resolution for lightmapping in P3d saving a precious 3 fps at night then really we have no "interesting" news to impart.

No need to be rude. I could not imagine that showing my interest for this project twice a year could be considered as harrasment

I whish you great success with your MANY projects and will take them from my radar.

If you go to our Facebook pages you will have all the latest news on the Caravelle

I was confused by your answer and thought there were recent news on Facebook.

GAAB, I think it is time to quit while you are ahead.

You are right. Should I also quit SOH forums ?

Of course not.
I'm not a Farcebook user so I just wait for news here.

Guys, just settle. It's not the most important thing happening right now is it?

We understand why people get impatient and it is also, I might add, very flattering to think that others are interested in what we do.The fact is, we are constantly busy on all our projects and will only update info when there is anything of import to say.

Right now, the Caravelle is well into its production schedule but it isn't going to appear very soon because of the nature of the beast. It is a big multi-jet airliner, not a Spitfire or a Hurricane. It may well end up being 18 months in development before being close to ready. But in comparison to other similar products on the market right now, that is not a long time.

Our next major delivery is the C-47/DC-3, another massive project representing many, many hours of work. We announced it in June of last year so we are still well under 12 months for production. 5 different models, 38 liveries and a whole heap more. That's pretty quick in our book.

Please remember, we are not a large outfit - basically, just the two of us "in-house". We also do work for others and when we do, that will hold up our own product lines. But it puts food on the table and that is what matters.

Thank you for this additional information. I promise to stop "harassing" you.

I dont think I was rude. I was telling you exactly what is happening on the caravelle , which is what you wanted. I dont/didnt consider it harassment.

The caravelle is in the last 20% of the development which unfortunately is
1. Not really newsworthy
2. takes longer than 20% of a development's timeline.

Thanks for your feedback.

- English is not my native language
- Other people reactions where not so kind

Probably the reason why I felt hurt.

I don't think anyone meant offense either. We're a pretty enthusiastic bunch and Bazzar, we know it'll get done in due time & be super nice being well worth the wait.
