• All important orientation points for VFR included
*When?*
• Devs work in freetime
• No exact release date to avoid pressure for devs
• Expect first half of 2024
*And finally: Why have there not been any updates for such a long time?*
Our goal is always to deliver good quality sceneries.
V1 of Hangelar was a project which wasn’t finished and we tried to update it regularly to get it
closer to being finished. The problem was, that i (Lufgat, the dev of EDKB) did not have much
motivation at the time and worked on different projects at the same time. When there is no
motivation, the product will not end up being good. That’s why we stopped working on Hangelar.
Now with much motivation, i started re-developing the scenery from scratch and began with the
ground layout, which is imported into the sim and you can see in the attached screenshots.
It will also still be changed (not exactly in the right position yet, etc). Every building at the airport
will be 3d modeled. Therefore some of the existing models (from V1) will be used, but updated and
some will be completely remodeled to enhance the quality. Furthermore we want to include 3d
models of the landmarks, which are used for orientation for VFR. All of that will be released as V2
instead of many smaller updates like two years ago. All in all it will be released as one finished
scenery and that is why we still need some time. We hope to be able to update you once every
month (via our discord server). For updates @EDKB-updates is still the right role.
If any questions are left, don’t hesitate to ask in the edkb-questions discord channel.
Always happy landings,
GSMS
