They literally could be done with Pcom by the fall and end the shit show
Update on Cali , apparently Mike Fortin said on his page he would like to do that one

Yeah, I think if you read between the lines with the Fortin offerings (Nameless has been ported, Cali is being “assessed”, and NTS confirmed out) and his seeming interest to port them, that its highly likely Neural is making a judgement call based on the popularity of the plug and the amount of effort it will take to port it.
“Licensing” issue for NTS likely = It’s not popular and we don’t want to spend months working on it.
Same with Morello, it may be a cool amp, but did they actually sell all that many of the plug? (I haven’t heard anyone talking about it post-launch)
I’d bet the IIC and Abasi might have legit licensing considerations at play, but I’d bet some of them it’s simply a matter of deciding if the juice is worth the squeeze to port.

W Mesa you are dealing w Gibson and they also have deals w amplitude and they are generally miserable to deal w anyway
Omega unfortunately was sold so again new owner that holds the trademarks and they have to renegotiate

The Mark stuff rationale I go through on modelers is a strange one. I either want a touchscreen with a visual that's skeu AF AND stellar sound or I don't care for the visuals at all and just want great sounds. Hence my love of FAS Marks. Amplitube looks and FAS sounds is probably the idealized digital Mark sweet spot. The TBP Mark was unexcitement city and the Stadium Mark experience was a different version of the same thing with a better touchscreen. I have no idea where the QC Mark would hit for me.
Oh, you didn't like the Stadium Mark? That's one of my top 3 amps on the unit.
And I used the FAS ones extensively when I had my FM9. Didn't feel like I was missing anything, but different tastes and all of that......

That was the time to return it straw for me.
Understood.

You'd think by now I'd have downloaded the NDSP trial plugin and taken it for a spin. But I haven't.
I think I even installed it once and failed to find the time to actually try it, which I assume means I'm SOL.

I heard some time ago that they've been known to reset trial periods upon direct request, so I would give them a poke on that Mesa Mark IIC plugin. If they should do it for anybody, it's you.

Even with my digital favorite being an easy pick for me; nothing stacks up to the real thing through a guitar cabinet. So there is that consolation if nothing else

That’s the thing, everyone has their “one”. I have three plugs of theirs that are either confirmed out or possibly out based on this update. (Darkglass, Granny, Cali) This is why I’m going to stop short of giving Neural any props for “transparency”. When you’re walking shit back five years after the fact I’d call it “coming clean” more than anything else. When they promised plugs they would have known as much about licensing concerns then as now, and if they are letting sales determine what to bail on now, it’s kind of showing weak character. Yeah they may have only sold 2,000 NTS plugs, (source: my asshole) and maybe only 50 of those dudes have a QC now to benefit from it porting, but that means you got 50 people to man the fuck up and deliver for.

I need Granophyre more than I thought. I haven't really played it in a while, but after a week of trying to create a good djent tone with my new 7 string, and with the latest update reminding me about it, I decided to try it out tonight and was able to get a satisfactory tone in 5 minutes.
I've been meaning to try out capture V2 for a while so I think I'll be capturing the tone I made on Saturday.
