Cessna U 206 G Soloy Mark 1 Turbine Pac V2.0

Hi Thomas,

i had also black squarres in V1 also in V2.
i also use FSX Acceleration with DX10 and Steve's fixer.
i could resolve the problem with ModelConverter X.
Just load the Model in MCX and saved as FSX MDL object
and the squarres are gone.
Thank so much for this amazing gem , Thomas !!

regards

This is really weird. What does the fixer do? But thank you for information.

TiAr,

Thanks much for your reply. Mystery solved. I may take a look at the possible MCX option suggested above . . . but for me, the issue does not detract from the model and your achievement in building it in any way!

the fixer convert textures to Dx10,
but i think. thats what you know.
with the MCX tool , you can portover to natives formats,
like FSX native, thats what i tried.
perhaps you have exported the model to P3D native and
some textured could not showed correctly in FSX DX10 .
easy doing, you must only load the models in MCX and
exported in FSX native format.
If you wish, i can do it for you, no big thing.

No, one german user reported exactly this issue in V1. Are the black boxes visible without cabin lights (L-key)? Do you have it in all versions? How many boxes you have with floats (asking because I changed the whees to high poli)

Thomas

1 box, centered, all exterior views. 3 boxes on top of each other over the compass - any interior view, any model, floats, no floats. I thought maybe it was my graphics card at first. The new tires look great.

Stopping control gained with the reverse mode however, turning radius is near to none or non- existant. Water rudders don't seem to have enough or any defection...any ideas
 
I have really no idea for a better stopping control on water without thrust. (it stops on my starting situation after a short time fully without brakes or other tricks). If you don´t like the defection of water rudders, you can change it by yourself in aircraft.cfg. The turning radios depends of 3rd party addons. I respect the work of the authors. Anyway, there will be no changes on it. Sorry.

Regarding the black squares in cockpit issue (I also have it), I've tried to use ModelConverterX to update the model to FSX as Bluebear suggested, but I just get import amd export errors.
Will Bluebear's fix be reflected in a subsequent release?
Thank you,
Dave.
 
Just to add my two bits, I am using FSX A with Steve's DX10 fixer and have no issues with any of the models

Absolutely love this plane!!!

I have had a second look to the interior.mdl
and found there a little bug with the vclight.
the CFGLight has no Visibility Condition.
It must be set to light_cabin_vis .
that's what it was.
I hope I could help :wavey:

Bluebear
 
In regards to the black squares in the cockpit I have never had them since day one
I don't run FSX in dx10 don't know if this is the problem or not

It sounds like Bluebear has a handle on how to fix the black squares, but I can understand that it might be considered a corner case and so might not be a priority right now.
The way FSX and its supporting infrastructure are, some faults don't show up all of the time and in all configurations.
For the record. I'm running FSX Acceleration with the DX10 fixer and I have the squares.
 
I don't know if anyone encountered this: I get numerous pauses in the sim with this plane. The sound goes on, but the sim stops for about fifteen seconds and then goes on again? Never encountered this before! This is a wonderful plane, but if these problems remain I'll have to let go of this one....

Hi Cees, no idea, nobody reported this before. Sounds for me that sim is loading some data. In which configuration/avionics you are using the Soloy? Right panel.cfg?

Thomas
 
Hi Thomas,

I solved the problem partially by keeping just one panel.cfg and erasing al references to the flight1 software. I'll keep you posted. It's a wonderful airplane you made for the sim! Chapeau! Thank you!

Edit: the problem remains no matter what I do. Alas.
