Well, I think it's time to reveal what's happening regarding publishers. We've been contacted by nearly all known publishers around, some of them quite big... But they're only interested in knowing if we have a complete product in hands so they can publish it through their methods.

The fact is that if we finish the product by ourselves, without the financial help of a publisher, in this current era of rising digital distribution platforms and self-publishing methods, we would probably drop it on Steam or similar as an independent release (I know the service very well, I have a friend selling two game products through it right now and he is happy with the service so far).

But without financial help this is nearly unachievable, for example, at the moment our (2) programmers are involved in serious "crunch time" periods in the respective studios where they work full-time in the games industry, so JT is nearly stalled at this point (again). the Financial help is needed so a counterproposal is made for them to leave those jobs and be full-time in JT. And after this, there is the issue of the licensing costs of real aircraft brands such as "Harrier" (Boeing Corporation in the US own the rights) and this costs serious money as well.

This sum ups very well and briefly what happens concerning publishers, but there are always a glint of hope and light at the end of the tunnel if we carry on feeding the dream.

Lockheed Martin and Bell believes I'm violating their copyrights so my F35AA1, F/A22A, MV22B are all off line. I got e-mail from them saying the shape of my 3d stuffs look like their aircrafts which are copyrighted.

Não sei porque essa empresas de aeronautica são tão mesquinha de cobrar tão alto só pelo uso de seus aviões, se afinal o que o game está fazendo é propaganda delas

O mesmo problema que o IL2 teve com o Avenger e outros...

Jet Thunder: Falklands/Malvinas Air-to-air mission tests

Sea Harrier FRS.1 intercepting low flying A-4B Skyhawks of the coast of Peeble Island/Falklands/Malvinas islands. The radio comms between Sea Harrier CAP and Royal Navy vessels below aren't ready yet. Argentinean flights are attempting to evade, like they did in the real events, because they didn't had enough spare fuel or air-to-air ordnance to properly fight the Sea Harriers.

Disclaimer: special effects, such as smoke and explosions, are placeholders. Will be completely re-made for final release. Goal here is to test mission functionality from start to end (A.I., weapons, wingmen). The mission is to provide CAP (Combat Air Patrol) for Royal Navy vessels in the Falklands strait.

P.S.: I'm using unlimited weapons and guiding arrow icons in this video, but ended using only 2 missiles and a small amount of 30mm ammo.
