REX SKY FORCE 3D - STATUS UPDATE:  DEVELOPMENT PHASE

6/20/2018 -

This update is in regards to the use of PFPX.  We have sent emails to PFPX support and we have had only one reply from Judith.  We have not received anything since.  At this point if we don't hear anything from them we will remove this feature from Sky Force.

REX SKY FORCE 3D - STATUS UPDATE:  DEVELOPMENT PHASE

9/4/2018 -

Technical Update 2.1 - development continues, but there have been delays due to the recent string of server issues between REX and NOAA.  Now that these seem to be resolved we hope to commence testing in late September.

Creative Update 1 - this is a major update that is presently in development.  This update will include the free add-on Weather Force which will be a major re-write of the weather engine for Sky Force.  Details on this update will come at a later date.

REX SKY FORCE STATUS UPDATE: DEVELOPMENT PHASE
Build: Technical Update 2.1

Update: 10/4/2018

Development of Technical Update 2.1 has been slow in process, mainly due to testing Sky Force along side with Environment Force develop.  

It is our hope to start our Alpha Cycle testing with the beta team and Insider Program very soon.  The fix list has changed since last announced.  So we will be posting a new one once we start testing.

Stay tuned.  We will discuss Creative Update 1 details after TU2.1 is released.
