Wynthorpe Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Don't listen to those saying you not shown going through clouds, just trolling it seems, each video is getting more impressive, can't wait for the release, will take xplane road whole new level. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anders Bermann Posted February 10, 2019 Share Posted February 10, 2019 Thanks, @Captain Kitten and @Xephyr for confirming multiple cloud types. I was a little worried, that the only cloud types, which would be depicted, would be the flat ones. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
domae001 Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 That video looks awesome, really shows what the engine is capable of. I have never seen anything like this in any sim or weather plugin and hope to be able to try it out myself in the near future! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is no official release target per-se. A realistic estimate could be the tail-end of Q1, perhaps beginning of Q2. Again, that is 100% subject to change and could be pulled forwards or pushed back. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntoX Posted February 12, 2019 Share Posted February 12, 2019 I notice that even with beautiful volumes above, the base of the cloud layers is still flat, like whipped cream on a plate. Is this due to a technical constraint? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Kitten Posted February 13, 2019 Author Share Posted February 13, 2019 Update: right now. We are finishing the light model. Haze has been corrected since it was a bug producer. (one of the factors of the wait between b14&15) Now we're finishing the light model and locking it down. This will take a day or two hopefully. And then all steam concentrates on bug squishing. ETA is still not disclosed and we will never endulge in that public trap. But for anyone telling people that 1.10 is "full of bugs" and won't be released in 2019 is just attentionseekers and should be ignored. We are on track and we are crossing off items as planned. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PAKFA14 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I hope that when the 1.10 is released, there will not be too many bugs like 1.09. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

noooch Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 In your last stream I think you mentionned 1.10 will not be compatible with XPRealistic, is it true? And if so why is that? I think many simmers use this addon ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do too and we sell it in the Threshold store. So we naturally want it to be compatible. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjctyler Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 @Captain Kitten Your my hero. xD I cant even fly anymore cause these 2-d clouds are nauseating. Also, Don't listen to the haters. You guys don't need to make 1.1 a free update but you are for the good of the customers so love that. Keep up the good work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
john1001 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 This is a screenshot I have taken from previous threshold video. " Look at this beautiful cloud " I remember I have seen exactly the same last year in spain over a mountain top. Let me tell you that the xEnviro developers are doing a genius work My Thanks to the development team 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkshire Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 The more I see the more I like, and I was impressed when I saw the early development shots when I discovered this site! Looking good and something to look forward to. And I think the team is doing the right thing by not releasing early and ensuring that it will do what it says on the tin. And if that takes another 2-3 months, so be it. I'd rather pay for a polished product that has been tested & tested than one where everyone starts complaining about this or that! Grateful for the supply of screen shots/videos and updates on the developments. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
