It would be crucial how KORD sales will be, in this case. We are very satisfied of Zurich, it would be quite interesting for us to see how a big US airport can do, to decide our future directions.

With this statement we can make a very easy conclusion and your words are quite obvious:
- if KORD scenery is successful, if everybody is happy with this team and sales are excellent, the next one will be... of course... the scared one and at the same time, the forgotten one... KJFK ;D ;D ;D

- We don't hold the copyright for KMCO, that's Cloud9 property. This means, we couldn't decide to publish it ourselves and Cloud9 should be involved. Unless, we rewrite the scenery from *scratch*, something that doesn't make sense for us, just for FS9.
- The trick that worked for LSZH and will work for KORD, is to derive both version from the same source data with minor changes, will not work for KMCO, if we want to publish independently.
- Even if we publish it independently, people would probably expect some kind of discount if they already have the FSX version, but that could only be made under Cloud9, because existing owners are all Cloud9's customers...
So basically, we are stuck of either publish it with Cloud9, or having to rewrite it from scratch, and that would be for FS9, because we are also bounded to not compete with Cloud9 with a similar product on the same sim.
For us, it would be far better if we concentrate to entirely new stuff. There are many big airports to do, that nobody seems to be interested doing, or are expected to be in low quality. There's a VERY important one, that everbody seems to be scared to do...and that fact alone might be a very good reason to do it.

I put in a request with Cloud9 as well. There seems to be much support for this effort so maybe you guys can get together and talk. To keep us using Simflyer's version is almost criminal... ;)

I would more so say KDFW is the one developers are scared of... Simflyers holds the record as the worst performing scenery for a major airport in FS history. We really need a nice new KDFW for FS9...

Hi
But KDFW is done by imagine sim. Good or not so good, but it´s done for FS2004... KJFK was done for FS 2002 and updated for FS 2004 if I remember... Anyway I would prefer something in Europe if my opinion would count. Even if we concentrate ourselves in the west or central europe, maybe easier, there are a lot of things to do with quality: Basel, Oslo, Prague,...

KDFW done by ImagineSim?? I think you meant KDTW
KDFW was done by SimFlyers.

Stand by! I agree with this as well. I could not even fathom FS Dreamteam doing JFK and for FS9 as well. Dear Lord would that be nice. I for one will help with ORD FS9 sales...I plan on buying it. Irregardless of what ORD sales do, if they do a FS9/FSX dual version JFK in the quality of Zurich, the team will likely set a FS sales record for the history of the entire sim. Umberto is right, it seems all quality payware guys are scared of it but the one team that actually does do it (dual platform) will have likely the best payday of a developer ever. People the world over know JFK and fly there on FS..it really is a no brainer. If they go ahead and do JFK and at the rate they are doing these great looking sceneries, the late summer/early fall of 2008 could be a great time of year!
