After months of work creating "Extreme Bush Trekker," we are pleased to announce that the product is now with simmarket.com for product wrapper packaging and installation. According to Miguel Blaufuks, CEO of simmarket, EBT should be released between now and Monday (June, 15).

Here's the complete product features:

Generally, similar to its predecessor Raw Grit: PNG Bushpilot, EBT is all about PNG bushflying. The only fundamental difference is that EBT is predominantly comprised of high altitude airstrips ranging from 2,741ft to 11,515ft. But there's more... out of the total sixteen bushflying scenes there are four which are either at or near sea-level, i.e., Madang (AYMD, Saidor (SDR), Long Island (LIS) and Kranket Islands (KKT). And, except for Madang (AYMD), Saidor (SDR) and Tauta (TAU) all thirteen airstrips are one-way takeoff and landing only.

The package specifically contain:

• 15 airstrips from near sea-level to high altitude (15ft-11,515ft msl) with very short to medium lengths. Except for 3, all are sloped invariably at
1.5 to 13 degrees.
• Combination of 8 seaplane docks and heliports including 1 helipad on cruiseliner. A mine exploration camp 1/4 mile south of Indagen (IGN) has
a bamboo helipad sitting at the base of a waterfall at over 7,779ft. Another bamboo helipad sits higher up at 11,527ft at Lake Gwam (GWM)
which serves the telecommunication relay station at 12,000ft.
• Hand-drawn river network and coastlines with white, tan and black sandy beaches.
• Customized vegetation typical of the region.
• Modern and traditional buildings such as primitive grass and coconut thatched dwellings (huts over the water, etc)
• Various animals (crows, white parrots, gulls, eagles, whales, dolphins, etc) with animation, including distinct sounds of nature from birds in
the mountains to waves crashing ashore in the coastal region.
• Night light effects
• Maps with recommended routes and operations
• Airstrip Facilities Directory
• Animated sea and road traffic
• Rural road traffic slowed down to 60KMPH as in real-life unlike the default at 100KMPH.
• Very friendly frame rates (product built on a low-end system).

Lets just say we're moving away from PNG ...for a short while..., and exploring a few Polynesian/Micronesian islands of interest. :mrgreen:
