I’m defiantly going to get this too when it is out.
I love flying VOR ILS approaches with no type of GPS or other visual aid, and this, with only lights, NDB’s, landmarks etc… to navigate and land sounds like a fun challenge.
And the scenery will be awesome too, based on era maps as much as they can replicate.
I guess it is beyond the game’s capability to allow changes to roads and housing. 1935 London had nearly stopped growing because of the Green Belt Act but in that year many suburban estates would have been under construction, fields were quickly turning into Greater London as it is known now.
Anyway, probably not possible, I’m a bit obsessive about the suburban growth of my city. Don’t forget smog!
This is starting to get released. 1935 Croydon (misspelt as Corydon in the marketplace listing!) Airport and 1935 Berlin Tempelhof have been released on the marketplace. According to their discord Köln and Amsterdamn 1935 airports will be released quite soon as well with some French airports needing more work done on them. They also said they expected France 1935 and Germany 1935 to be released before Xmas, I think those are the products that will contain the European airway beacons, replace ground services with more period correct stuff and include 1930s AI traffic but not entirely sure.
Anyway I bought both Croydon and Tempelhof and did spot a few issues which I reported on their discord and should get fixed up. Here’s a few screenshots of 1935 Croydon:
Cool, I was hoping somebody would take the plunge and report back here.
What concerns me a little with these being released on the marketplace, is that there won’t be an easy way to toggle them on and off. You’d have to do a complete uninstall/reinstall every time you want to switch between 1935 and today.
I’m also wondering how the upcoming 1935 ground services will play with the regional airport environment packs from LVFR (and simmilar). I’d probably have to uninstall/reinstall all that stuff as well.
What something like this needs, is a an app we can use to easily switch between 1935 and now. Or at the least, the ability to buy this outside the marketplace so that we can switch it on and off with something like Addons Linker.
if on PC and you’re using a mod manager just move it from the official folder to the mod managers folder i do it with all MP purchases
I got croydon it is pretty cool
