RELEASE: //42 Mount Patterson Camps for MSFS on PC & Xbox
--
by Edson Soriano, Managing Director //42
When we kicked off the concept of building these small and often BLM land camps for MSFS, we weren’t sure how they would be received. FreedomFox / Fox2 Complete was the perfect way to test the waters, so we increased the value of that package by bundling a few of them. The feedback has been overly positive; these strips always have bush pilots zooming around the area.
It’s not all gravy tho; there has been some negative feedback from those that don’t want to own a Kitfox but prefer a Cub or even…a Husky. This kind of negative feedback is always welcome tho; more people want access to these strips, and who are we to hold it back? Queue the UN bundling…
In a prior blog post about 42MX Mexican Mountain, we promised to make these strips available individually at $4.99 for small camps and $7.99 for bigger strips that serve as hubs for the smaller ones.
We begin with a series of 3 small POI in Northern California, which are included for $4.99. This particular set was inspired by a Trent Palmer video titled “I landed my plane on a 11,000ft mountain” In the video, Trent never reveals what the sign says at his landing site, but now you can experience it and see it for yourself in-sim.
If you own FreedomFox / Fox2 Complete Pack, you already own this scene.
Your purchase includes three BLM landing areas in Mono County, California, in the Sweetwater Range.
- 42MW Mars with Flowers
- 42MP Mount Patterson Peak
- 42MM Montague Mine Stone Cabin
Scenes have a small footprint vs. complete sceneries that cover a larger area. Expect challenging spots with immaculate vibes; whether it feels remote or cozy will depend on each spot.
