Today third-party developers had lots of news and releases in store for Microsoft Flight Simulators add-ons.
We start with Ouroboros, which released a development update about their EMB-500 Phenom 100.
We’ve got some studio renders for you guys today. This model sprung to life faster than we anticipated but we’re happy to share it with you. The future of this model will be improved with a “V2” but the current version is close to what you will fly as we move into the texture phase. We plan to integrate the Working Title NXi system into our Phenom natively, meaning you don’t have to install this seprately to enjoy a detailed aircraft. Over time, we plan to include a custm EICAS and more pages with enough support and availability. Before we roll out our Phenom 300 model we will need to have perfected the Phenom 100 after the release. Needless to say, yes that is also in the long term pipeline.
