BlueBird Simulations 757

I’m not sure everyone knows about the programming decision you made some months ago, which, as I understand it, basically meant the code for much of the entire model had to be scrapped and started over.

You explained it at the time, but some may not have seen it.

For future projects, any chance you can make, either due to it not existing for Xbox users

Likewise with the Learjet. Looking forward to the new sounds on that one when they come (in around a couple of months or so last I looked at their discord)

Yes, I tend to agree with you both although there is always an outside chance :slightly_smiling_face:

I know i’ve said it before but (once again) very commendable and refreshing.

Can you confirm the 757 will be for Xbox users too on the marketplace?

He answered that back in January at the end of the January 2024 update. Yes, it will come to Xbox, but most likely after the initial launch. 24m30s into the video.

Thanks. I missed that. But unfortunate to hear it’ll be delayed

New video with some sounds. Can’t wait to get it.

Will this be available to purchase in fs2024 or just fs2020?

The video says it will be released for FS20, and will get an update for FS24.

I will wait for the FS24 version. I pre-ordered the new sim, and based on what I’ve seen so far, I won’t be going back. My aircraft purchases are on hold until probably early next year.

Ditto, also Ive noticed an increase in sales/discounts from ‘add on’ providers, I suspect the next few months of sales could be difficult.

It would be worth it to grab some discounted aircraft today if…we could be sure the devs would be releasing a true FS24 remake.

But it’s hard to know whether other devs will be focused on truly optimizing their FS24 versions the way Bluebird seems intent on doing.

Thanks for the info, I will definitely wait to get the fs2024 version as well because I will preorder fs2024 on steam I think on Friday :slight_smile:

Pretty impressive sounds they are too.

Really looking forward to this as well.

It’s a shame that it will be for FS20 first but, hey, it is what it is. I am guessing that when it is eventually ported to FS24 they will do a proper job and take advantage of the new features of the new sim.

Seeing the 757 and 767 slowly being phased out in real life these are the only planes I can’t wait for. No pressure… :wink:

Unfortunately it seems they’re hinting at a release into 2025. It sounds good, looks good and clearly flies. Things will never be perfect, just release it and then make a patch. Delay delay delay

I certainly understand your desire to have it sooner than later.
For me personally, I’m fine waiting until they’re satisfied it’s optimized for FS24.

You can buy the 2020 version, fly it in 2024 and it eventually gets upgraded for the full 2024 functionality.

Why wait? 2024 is backwards compaitable with 2020 stuff.

And the people are all over them because some minor details are missing. Have you never seen an early aircraft release? Or look at MSFS release itself.
