The developers of Prepar3D, Lockheed Martin Tweeted earlier that they’ll be hosting a Reddit AMA (Ask Me Anything) on Tuesday 26th September between 1pm – 2pm ET. During which time, they’ll be open to questions from the community VR, augmented reality and the software itself.
What’s most interesting is the Reddit thread (link here), has now been deleted, whilst the Twitter post currently remains active. Why? Well, we think it has to do with the fact they may have accidentally revealed that version 4.1 of the simulator will be out very soon. Quoted from the Reddit post, they said “we just released v4.1, so we thought this would be a great time to answer any questions you might have”. I was quick enough to capture a screenshot of the thread before it was deleted. Also note that some of the comments question 4.1 as well.
(Note: 4.1 is NOT released! We have just checked and it’s not available to download)
However, if you then head to the account which posted this thread (u/LockheedMartin), you will notice they’ve posted a new thread, with the above quote now missing.
We’re expecting that the release of version 4.1 is pretty close now and I’m guessing we’ll know for sure by Tuesday. Hopefully this means that beautiful looking A320 from FSLabs isn’t too far behind either.
