We're not talking about the Invictus flyby; we're talking about full flight ready, released to the backers so they can fly it and use it this year. When?

TL;DRThe Polaris will be fully flight ready and released to backers at IAE this year, not at 4.0, with just under half the UK art team working on its interior.

Ben CurtisVehicle and Weapons Art Director

The actual release as well. So we haven't just made the exterior and gone.

John CreweVehicle Director

So the Polaris is going to be flight ready, fully released at IAE this year.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

So IAE this year, not 4.0.

John CreweVehicle Director

Not 4.0. It will come out at IAE.

Ben CurtisVehicle and Weapons Art Director

It will come out at IAE. Also, massive shout out to all the interior guys as well, because we've got a whole other bunch of artists that are smashing the interior. It's not at the level where we wanted to show it yet, but yeah, they are plowing through that work and it's going to be great.

Cory BamfordSenior Lead Vehicle Artist

Big ships, a lot of rooms.

Jared HuckabyHost, Community

You'll see the current status of the interior grey box on ISC next week. It's what, taking up almost half of the UK art team?

Mark GibsonLead Vehicle Content Designer

Yeah, just under half the UK art team have been focusing on it.

John CreweVehicle Director

So we've made some efficiencies elsewhere.

Ben CurtisVehicle and Weapons Art Director

Oh yeah, massive ones actually. Shout out to Guillaume and the Montreal Tech Tools team for giving us auto LODs.
