There has been some resurgence of threads related to Emma_X over at the Emma Field Forums these days. Bill Womack has posted some updated shots of the terrain around Emma and discussions are ongoing on timing for moving "beta testers" into the mix. . . .possibly next month sometime.
One issue that seems to have been decided at an early stage was the relative positioning of Emma FS9 and Emma_X to each other in Multiplayer situations. In other words, if we were to do an Emma Field Fly-In. . .open to all Emma users obviously, the two will not synch. So depending on which version you are flying, those in the other version would appear somewhere else in the landscape. Bill mentioned, when answering my question about this very thing, that due to terrain issues, he had to move the main rwy/taxiway area about 400 meters (about the length of 4 football fields) to the southwest to get it back on flatter ground.
I look forward to the release and since I have Emma loaded on FS9 and fly there several times a week I'll have a choice as to which one to fly from at any given time, but it's unfortunate that the two could not be somehow "overlapping" to make the experience even better for all.
To Bill and the Emma_X team. . .keep the fires burning, we're all looking forward to the next release of Emma Field.:applause:
