New KLAX for FSX/FS9

(1/2) > >>

 A great new Los Angeles for FSX and a revamped version for FS9 would be great.
There is no version for FSX and Cloud9 is good for FS9 but its a little outdated and no AES support.  :(
I think this product would actually sell good considering theres no version for FSX and one of largest airports in the US and in the world. I think people would also like the reworked version for FS2004 also with AES support finally.  8)
Please consider this FSDT!!!  ;D ;D ;D (well after DFW of course  8))

This has been answered already:

Since we gets payed by Cloud9 (even now) because they licensed our sales system to sell KLAX, we can't obviously compete with them with a similar product, on FS9. And yes, Cloud9 KLAX is still selling, and reasonably well, considering it was released 3 years ago.

Since FS9 right now is still (unfortunately) about 40% of the market, we can't afford to dump it, yet. We WILL, sooner or later, but we can't right now so, why would we release a scenery which would start immediately with a 40% sales loss, ( because we can legally do only an FSX version ), when we could release an all-new airport, for FSX and FS9, that doesn't start with this handicap ?

crunk747:
Oh ok I understand that 40% sales loss,  :( but it looks to me that Cloud9 has shut its doors  :-\ ... they havent made anything new in a while and their website hasnt been updated in over a year. And if Cloud9 Los Angeles is still selling well then how about an update from Cloud9 w/AES support and other tweaks??  ???

With all due respect, Virtuali, I don't see the FS9 market as an 'unfortunate' thing. I have no plans to migrate to FSX for at least another year or two, but I do and will continue to purchase your products for FS9 as long as you continue to make them. And when I do switch,I will continue my support of FS Dreamteam as a result of your continued support for FS9. Some other payware developers have already lost my business because they have abandoned the '40%'. And I will not purchase FSX products from them when I do go to FSX for that reason alone. I don't believe you should drop support for a platform that is still very lively. And I enthusiastically applaud the fact that you are still giving us FS9ers OUTSTANDING products to look forward to. You have definitely earned and will keep my business as long as you are creating sceneries for FS. Thank you.
