We've released the User Guide already for ya, and also some more screenshots of this 80.000 square kilometers large, extremely detailed product.

We expect to release it this weekend... finally !!!

Check out our website at http://fsaddon.eu/wpfsaddon/ :wavey:
 
Finally indeed! Great news.

No map of the coverage area in the user guide? (or on the product page (or in the support forums) - do you really have to buy it before you get to see the area it covers?)

Now we just have to wait for Glacier Bay!
 
Here's the coverage area from another thread:

It looks like it's missing from the page 20 in the manual.
 
YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHAAAW! Finally, welll almost finally we can go back to flying in that beautiful area. I can see many interesting MP flights coming up! Can't wait!

Oh and no need to release it before sunday as fri and sat I'm at an airshow anyway hehe. ;)

Thank you - I've been looking for one everywhere - it's such an impressive area that you'd think a coverage map would be easier to find as it might help to sell it.
As you say someone has forgotten to include it on page 20 of the manual - hopefully the actual product has no similar omissions :icon_lol:

I know Glacier Bay is being worked on - does anyone know if there are any plans for Misty X?

The map was there in every version of the manual I've seen -- I even pulled it out and posted it on another forum thread (see above)... something wonky must have happened to it in the meantime. It'll get replaced before release, don't worry.

Here's a page Holger put together that not only has a bigger map, but shows how Tongass X stacks up against the default scenery, and even how it improves over the FS9 version.

Great comparisons. I just fully realized how bad the default FSX scenery really is. For example the shot of default Chutine Lake, British Columbia, the shoreline looks like it's drawn with a ruler:icon_lol:.
 
I am a lifelong Alaskan, lived,worked, hunted and fished around many of these areas. You have really done this justice. My wife was born in Sitka, I graduated from the Alaska State Trooper Academy there.
Outstanding job folks.
Thank you for the effort/hard work. I am one happy dude.

Thank you :applause: The comparison shots really are pretty shocking! I can't wait.
 
I'm so glad to hear this! And eh, when would you expect to start on Misty Fjords (and/or Glacier Bay) ? These three would complement each other in a magnificent way, wouldn't they ?
:applause:

What´s the price?????....any discount on that???

The FSAddon page says US$34.95 but Simflight says 'we’ve decided to drop the price on the new Tongass Fjords' so hopefully it will be less.
 
"Now taking Bets on how quickly this project gets Uploaded to a torrent site.

Winner Gets a free copy of Tongass Fjord's X"

"Just a joke.. Don't take it personally."

But more Seriously, I love the work you guys do, and I love the detail it brings to a game with rather, Boring scenery to look at sometimes. I am so looking forward to Bronson Creek, as I have tried very hard to create my own. Then I saw your Version and said F*** it.

Just makes me want to go on a tour in real life!

Personally I have done a cargo run scenery at Flightsimnation that includes Muddy lake (BD7), to Telegraph creek, to Bronson creek, to Bob quin lakeCBW4, Iskut and ending at Dease lake. Beautiful Flight through the valleys!

Its too bad you had t leave out Iskut as its a beautiful One way landing over a cliff, and Bobquinn as it too is a really nice airport for logging and fisherys type operations.

It pays to live in a country where Euro is used. Euro is really killing the Dollar right now and with todays rates that makes about 25 Euros, which is not bad at all:jump:.

I hope this will be sold through Flight1 wrapper system which I prefer(?)
