    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated Tom Clayton has offered to post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

The FSX Only Mallard v1.2 has just been uploaded. This corrects minor issues with the model, panel, sounds, and aircraft.cfg. It also uses DDS/DXT5 textures and a common texture folder to improve load times. Although we do not support P3D and the typical P3D version issues are present with this aircraft, it does correct the load problem with P3D 2.n according to beta tests.

Can't install

I am having trouble understanding how to install. When I download the referenced file it opens up into a folder with a lot of files, but I can't find the MallardTPX1.2 file.

It seems I am getting the wrong file.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Tom

Hi Milton,

No when I download the file it appears to be opening to the expanded file.

Tom

Tom,

When you unzip the downloaded file, you will see a MallardTPX folder.
When you open that folder, your will see another MallardTPX folder.
Open that and you will see the folder I posted above.
The MallardTPX1.2 folder is the one you copy to FSX/Airplanes folder.

EDIT: See attached Folder View

Follow the simple installation instructions.

When I download the listed file it opens 726 files none of which is a MallardTPX folder.

Sorry, but I am at a loss as to what is happening.

Sorry if I'm getting confused, but when I download and install this aircraft (MallardTPX.zip), I find only a single tp.mdl in the model.tp folder. Does the lack of an interior model indicate that this is the port-over version as I thought FSX native aircraft have a external and an internal mdl file? Just wondering if I got the right version.

Tks

Milton,

I found the problem. I was downloading from your thread that listed the new release and provided a download.
As soon as I downloaded directly from the Warbirds library it installed correctly.

Thanks for your help.

Gerard,

Sorry for the confusion. That was simply a Model replacement folder for the v.1.2 release to correct the "leak" in the model.
I posted it so someone could test the fix. I will correct the v1.2 version in place and provide a separate model folder fix.

If you downloaded and installed the latest version, that Model folder may be used to replace the model in the latest release.
 
I have uploaded the official Model Folder FIX for the Mallard Turboprop. It applies to the latest v1.2 releases, FSX and FS9.

If you downloaded V.1.2 before now, this FIX applies to you.

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=8&linkid=21707


I have also updated the original v1.2 release archives to incorporate the fix so if you have downloaded after this post, the FIX is already applied in your download.

The FIX corrects a Model see-thru leak you may notice if you zoom in closely from the front.

See attached.

Hold Sound Folder

I just noticed I left an old Sound folder in the release package for FSX.

It is named "Hold Sounds".

If you have this folder, you can delete it.

Thanks
