obie311 20 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 The modelling and texturing will be in a whole new league. Also systems will become more realistic. It´s no secret that the current Twin Otter is an aging woman that not quite is state of the art concerning quality. Doing the -400 would mean ALOT of additional work increasing the salesprice to where no one will buy it. The Virtual cockpit is the singlemost complex part to do on an aircraft addon. Doing both the -100 / -300 and -400 models would mean almost two seperate projects. So what You will get thats not featured by the current Twin Otter: -New external and internal models with more accurate proportions (we got very good reference stuff). -Modelling and texturing that will be up to if not exceeding current state of the art. -Flight dynamics done by our FM guru John Cagle (Catalina, GliderX, Dimona, Bronco etc..) -Deeper systems simulation for electrical, hydraulical and fuel systems etc. -True 3D gauges. -Floatplanes will have propeller startlatches will be added, eliminating the "surge" forward when starting the engines. -A few other surprices that needs some testing before putting them on the featurelist. It will NOT be an upgrade of the current twin Otter X, but an entire new project. Finn Hi Finn, I have wanted a Twin Otter for quite a while. It suits my interest in flying. The new Twotter is exciting but I I have a very low spec system: WinXP Pro SP3 Intel Core Duo CPU E7500 2.93ghz 4GB Ram ATI Radeon HD4350 I usually run around 20fps w/photoscenery in most areas except extremely dense urban or extremely detailed airports. Would I be better off with your older Twotter with my lame system? Thanks. Obie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Your default FSX aircraft run decently, then the Twin Otter extended will also with a couple of frames less. We are doing our utmost to achieve as little impact on FPS as possible, actually that is our main focus. This does not mean that graphical quality is compromised, nor that it only willo have low level systems simulations, if done right then it will work out just fine. Stefan, our 3D modeller, is among the few rreal professional 3d artists with alot of knowledge from other PC gaming graphics, so he has the right tricks to make awsome looking aircrafts and at the same time not compromise performance.

obie311 20 Posted April 20, 2013 Share Posted April 20, 2013 Thanks Finn. I've enjoyed your Bronco so I'll get the new Twin Otter when it comes out. I worked in Vegas for a while and saw the Grand Canyon ones coming and going from McCarren often. Obie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DocBird 12 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I know its mean showing all these nice pictures but look at the PIC - his hand is actually moving when you increase the power... Nice detail! But what happens if I make a turn on the water: One handle to the front and the otherone at reverse? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinotter_Pilot 13 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 We dont go too deep into these animations - I believe its a big step forward that you actually see a virtual pilot doing more than moving his head. So moving the throttle forward and back again yes but no detailed movements as you see in real life i.e. water maneuvers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn 873 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 External view - throttle position will be the average of the two throttles. Compromises have to be made Finn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caribpilot 58 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 If anyone does repaints, I am hoping someone would be willing to do a repaint of SVGair Twin Otter?
