FSX Screenshots Here!!

That's the most deadly version of the Bounty I have seen

Very nice! Only with this package I could add this ship to my FSX.
TacPack right? Is this configuration can be shared?

Well... even without weapons, this ship is a "must have"... Excellent quality
and functionality !... very immersive from every aspect (in a flight sim's context anyway)...

Weapon addon used is CS Weapons, but I use Tacpack effects for the impact of "cannon ball".
(I'm sure it can be done with Tacpack also but I don't have the knowledge).

You may download the necessary files - if you have CS Weapon - here --> http://simworksstudios.com/forum/index.php?topic=439.msg2320#new

I have also added choice of 3 cannons elevation angles :


For naval battling, you may use CCP (or other programs) for friendly moving ship convoys (use the AI Bounty in this case : )

but for enemy ships is better to use the boat herself static with CCP static files (.STA.xml) since she's an "aircraft" and can be
removed ("sink") by CS Weapons.

I could request for a Greek flag of the 1820 period ?...

Oh thanks, but for now James MacKenzie (saints 76) give me his files sources of the Admiral Kusenstov to rework textures I am working in

Still a fair bit to do to get it close though I might just give up as I don't care for the models FD. Great for going long distances on AP and landing on 10000ft runways but for carrier ops.. it's far too slow in everything it does (sorry mal). Still.. this has kept me occupied for around 6hrs (5 of which was spent getting the nose vaguely close.. the original paints are poop if you look too close). Thank goodness for sales:biggrin-new:

Y'know mate.. I'd not noticed that before but I think you're right. Coral Sea is the SWS model for those wondering where it came from.

Did Mal ever do his good work on this bird's FD? I think the AS A-3 is pretty aircraft (Ed Heineman's favorite design I bevlieve). Not sure what you mean by "far too slow"? She's high sub-sonic in cruise and around the pattern/boat should not be expected to have the high role rate or other high responsiveness of a, e.g., Scooter for such a big aircraft with long wing span. I find her VERY hard to trap - with crash detection on - without a building crash on the Oriskany, but have had better luck on the Midway and larger carriers. Have also lost track if someone did an FSX native model for her (like the Crusader) recently.

Your screenies - the Whale, it's repaint, and the Coral Sea - look terrific.
 
I've had a look and can't see an updated FD by mal (or anyone else for that matter). I appreciate it's size and don't expect it to handle like a fighter but you have to fight it everywhere except when you're in high cruise or going straight. I find it directionally too stable and aileron turns are more like an F5/T3/Zipper (something with a very small wing area). There's more but the short version is.. it aint a great deal of fun to be in which is a shame as it's a great looking jet. I've had a few more stabs at 606..

606wip3.jpg


Between '63 and '65.. VAH-2 made numerous small changes to the Whales livery an markings so I found one decent shot of 606 and went with that. I don't know what the airframe number was and trying to stencil it up is impossible. It's suitable for AI I guess;)

Hi Christophe,

Yes, there's one small flaw with the original download; where you might see angular green screen shapes in the VC, apparently most noticeable for those with less powerful PCs!
There is a separate patch included with your download, which solves this problem! The model is heavy on FPS too, particularly the 3D VC and a second version is included with just a 2D panel, to help those with a less powerful set up!

Take time to learn the start up procedure, it's worth it! There is a 'quick start', but even that involves 9 or 10 switches etc. to be operated.
She's a BIG Girl to handle, and I reckon she looks and sounds pretty good too! There's a whole load of animations included and the detailing on this aircraft is extremely good!

Give it a go Mate, I think you'll enjoy the experience!

Cheers for now,

Thank you very much for your feedback ChipShop.
Will consider the A-400 for the future.

Clean, but not squeaky..

While searching the darkest corners of my HD's for something I never found.. I stumbled over Mal999's A6 Intruder FD update. Next trick was to find the Alpha A6.. mate the two, then take it for a spin. Ideas.. ideas!!! A download of the PK and a general tidy up later.. this is the result..

Where I'm going next is uncertain. I'm out of my 'comfort' zone with U.S. hardware and I can only access the complete PK in CS2 which takes me further out of my comfort zone!! Seems the Razbam model was quite well patronised for repaints (I have that/those models too but prefer the Alpha version with Mal's FD revision.. even with it's old, blurry VC) so will see what I can dig up to mate paints to carriers. VA-52 and VA-35 are currently under scrutiny.

wow, localization please

It is on the NW of the island of Tinos, which is directly NW of Mykonos. Not sure if it has something to do with the Aerosoft Mykonos scenery, as I was using that when I noticed it.

The location and coordinates are shown on the pic below:
