X-Crafts recently published a new development update concerning their upcoming Embraer Lineage 1000 add-on, a 50 million dollar ultra-large business jet variant of the popular Embraer 190 with an 8500 km range.

Cabin texturization is nearing completion. They will next animate the window blinds, cabin doors, and all tables, add customizable lighting throughout the cabin, create a custom fuel system with additional tanks, and add new EFB stuff.

Their custom interior will include different zones made with ultra-high resolution materials and heavy optimization work to warrant smooth performance despite the level of detail.

Regarding cabin accuracy, the developer claims to have access to a real Embraer Lineage, allowing them to capture each nook and cranny of the aircraft as realistically as possible, with precise dimensions, accurate furniture, and more.

While there is no release date yet, X-Crafts expects it to be ready within a few months for X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 12. Owners of the complete E-jets Family will receive the new plane for free, whereas new owners can buy it separately. There’s also an upgrade path for owners of any individual E-Jet, which warrants access to the whole family for $67.45.

Refer to their blog post for further information on the matter and purchase links.
