KATL - Hartsfield Airport Progress for P3v5

[airbadger]

Just tell us it's been canceled. We're all adults. That way, at least another dev can consider taking it on.

TWill this get released in 2021 or 2022?

There is the default (Which became a hand-crafted in the U.S. update) and Imaginesim's version. Take your pick lol

Too bad KATL has lagged for years. You can’t have 1 dude in his bedroom making airport sceneries part time while his mommy makes his lunch. I wish there was a real company with full time staff developers working on this stuff. Right now add ons are part time hobbies for several companies. Look at Imaginesim. 3 years for KDFW and they don’t even have a forum page. By time KATL is out, P3D v6 will roll out for Windows 11 and it won’t be compatible.

I agree, Pauly. To add insult to injury - it's not like these projects are getting any easier with how detailed the sims are getting. Albeit, it seem developers are pumping out sceneries for MSFS at an extraordinary rate, compared to sims prior. I haven't quite figured out if that is due to MSFS being developer friendly, or due to covid and people having additional time on their hands..

I wonder if you make KATL for P3D, how much more work is it to make it in FS2020. Does anything in the development overlap? Can anything be "cut and pasted" ? Or is it a completely re-draw. Though I have both FS2020 and P3dV5, I am not buying FS2020 scenery at this time. Once PMDG planes become available for FS2020, then I'll make the switch on a new computer. Let's check back in 2022 to see if KATL is done - see you next year.

wow - no hint of any progress. thanks FT for the update !

Maybe KATL airport is closed with COVID-19 so in four more years may be released, who knows.

You all realize, by time it is released, P3D will be on a totally new version. I'll probably be all into MSFS by then. But wow, no response, no concern makes me sour about supporting this company.

WOW, (YES IN CAPS!) THE YELLOW DOT ON KATL IS GONE!!!
EITHER F.T . GAVE UP ON IT OR IT IS ABOUT TO TURN RED AND BE RELEASED!!

Anyone care to speculate????

Possibly, it is about to be released. Why would they just stop making it? That's hours of development they won't get back.

Why would they remove the yellow dot? Surely they would just replace the yellow dot with a red dot when it is released? Not that I care, but removing it completely seems like a strange decision unless they have given up on it.

[pauly123]

WOW, a simple response here or on Faceb0ook would be nice. I just can't understand how no one at FlyTampa cares about responding to customers. If I was the owner. I'd at least check the board weekly and reply. I mean only 15 minutes a week at most to keep people updated! I think FlyTampa is a 1 person company and he found another hobby or is smoking pot every day and simply don't care.

KATL was removed from the map because it doesn't fit anymore into our development plans. Odd, I know, and the only time an announced FT airport is being cancelled, but after a long cycle of stopping and restarting, we decided to kill it for several reasons. If conditions allow, we might restart it a later point.
