Alphasim's Eurofighter for FSX?

I would say go a little slow or they are stranded in the complex work that is C-17?

Objectively Vcockpit their typhoon is a perfect base ... I think they potentially a fair number of buyers ...

We do not work on just one project at a time - that would be business suicide!!
 
I can only speak for myself (AlphaSim is a group of modellers and painters, fm guys etc)in that I model only aircraft that interest me. I mean most models take months if not years to finish so there has to be a certain level of interest to keep me motivated that long.

If aircraft that I'm interested in prove popular then thats good but for me personally it's all about whether I like the subject aircraft or not!!
 
If you look on the Alphasim site, the Typhoon isn’t listed in their shop area. Does this and the present upheaval at Alphasim mean it will never be updated for FSX. That would be a real shame.

As I'm still enjoying the Alphasim Eurofighter in FS9 I'm not exactly biting at the bit expecting an updated version for FSX. To be honest I gave up hope of seeing one a long time ago.

My dream is that one day someone, preferably Aerosoft, will do a Eurofighter, in the same vein as their F-16. I simply cannot understand why no one has come up with a decent model for FSX yet.

"Present upheaval" is better characterized as "re-affirmation" and "expansion".

As far as the Typhoon goes (and DON'T quote me on this), she was originally built by a modeller who left AS a very long time ago. Hence, we are not likely to see an update.

If I hear anything to the contrary, I'll be happy to pass it along.

Well if AS won't be updating theirs, then hopefully another developer can give it a crack. Someone like IRIS would be an ideal candidate.

yep, there are quite a few very talented developers out there, so there's always hope!

I wouldn't count Iris out, they mentioned on facebook that they are releasing a single and 2 seat fighter as there next project, people were guessing Rafales, F-18's and I finially quessed the Typhoon to which there was no reply, so my moneys on that for Iris's next jet!
 
Peter, David said 2 people have it right so far which narrows it down to 2 aircraft that fit that description... :wavey:
 
I think the fever pitch in UK circles regarding the next Lightning or Typhoon could mean potential suicide for the next company that makes either.

Models are models and rivet counters can rivet count but FDE's are FDE's and both aircraft are really unique, the latter just goes batpoop in the air at the hands of a twenty something year old and the former has some serious quirks that would snap heads with a blink of an eye so who ever is brave enough to step upto the plate has some serious guts.

Then again knowing this hobby no matter what happens you will never satisfy everyone so... :)

P.S. I do not mean this as a negative post, a little tongue in cheek but far from negative.
