Haha, thanks for your message, was lovely to see. I read it to my wife this morning and we both had tears in our eyes, she knows how much hard work goes into each of our products and when we can see such positive reactions we just get so much joy that we cannot hold it back anymore…
Regarding the SDK, everything you saw last night is using purely MSFS SDK up to AAU2. Asobo team is incredible helpful, they support 3rd party devs as much as they can, I don’t hold back to ask for more and more SDK features so I can create stuff I am dreaming, and accordingly if there is anything they can do to help to achieve goals they do acordingly. They are an amazing team that deserve much more praise from the community.
I have still many requests for the SDK, but there are 2 in particular that I would have loved to have for M500:
- One Hypoxia simulation…
- I want walkable avatars with the possibility to drive vehicles.
With these 2 I could have added much more immersion, most of the time I am able to write my own custom simulation for components or things I desire to achieve (the SDK is that powerful!) for example, I am writing right now custom ITT cooling off periods, last week I completed a custom ITT cooling efficiency profile based on air density (this means as higher you go, even when air is cooler, because the air is less dense, the engine cannot be cooled as much as at lower altitudes, causing ITT to increase near to warning / red levels).
Is just a flavour of what I am able to do, but I want to do even more… and when there is something I cannot, I ask Asobo means to let me do it… most of the time I get a positive feedback and see improvements on the SDK with one of the next SU updates. For an instance SU10 enabled the capacity to create custom Turbo Prop BETA simulation after Alex (SWS dev of the Kodiak and partner of FSReborn) and myself asked Asobo for this feature.
I am incredible exited for FS2024 because I know many things I been asking for the SDK and that cannot be done currently due to limitations of the platform will be there and I cannot wait to keep creating amazing content and keep pushing the simulator as far as I can get! and if it doesn’t let me… I will ask Asobo to keep improving it!.
Thanks everyone for your amazing support, without you, nothing we have created would exist today.
Love,
Raul
