Thanks for that Milton.

Tried to do the upload Saturday night but keep getting Database errors when completed. Might be because of nightly backups or maintenance so will try Sunday morning, about 8-9 hours from this post time.

Howdy folks. The A-20 beta v1.0 is now available to exercise. There are a few known issues that are documented in the "readme.txt".

Feel free to "swamp test" it and report any issues here.

Thanks for all your help in advance.

She's a beauty Milton. I have it installed in P3D_V4 and while I have not gone over with a fine tooth comb, I see nothing amiss at this point.

VC Views

The aircraft modeling with the superb paint work gives an incredible high degree of reality.
I know I could reach out and feel the rivets..

I really like doing VC camera views and I sometimes pickup a few things.


A20C

From first pass all looks good.
Love the animated bombardier and bombay doors interior.


A20G - with animated exterior bombay doors.

Bombbay doors missing from VC view and are not animated to close.
Can see shadow of exterior doors move.


P70A1

Bombay doors/ welded bottom of aircraft missing from VC view.

VC radar operator space has day light leaks.


P70A2 - with animated exterior bombay doors.

Bombbay doors missing from VC view and are not animated to close.
Can see shadow of exterior doors move.

VC radar operator space has day light leaks.

Nose gear hatch has missing texture.


P70A2 - with cannon pod.

Bombay doors/ welded bottom of aircraft missing from VC view.

VC radar operator space has day light leaks.

Nose gear hatch has missing texture.

Loving it.

Milton and crew, excellent renditions of this aircraft. Would like to add to WIP list, all portside landing lights inoperative. starboard side functioning properly. Thank you sir. Hawkdriver

 

[docjohnson]

What a great aircraft! Took the beta for a spin today and loved the aircraft. I don't know if this is a WIP or not but when I went to exit the runway I could not get the nose gear to move, tried everything I could think of other than reading the manual...

Hats off to Milton and crew, great work guys!

 

[Sundog]

Man, it's worth it for the sound pack alone! Love it.

SH72,

Do your exterior camera views using the exterior model, not the VC model.

I remove many parts in the VC/interior model to help with cockpit frame rates.
The final release will have very little behind the cockpit.

Doc, it will be very hard to turn that nose gear if you are exceeding 10mph. For ground maneuvers less than 10, no problem.

Hawkdriver,

The port side light is actually a taxi light. The switch is just to the right of the landing light switch.

When I was a kid, an A20 was at the Vicksburg MS airport. As we explored it one night, I remember being surprised that a 2 engine bomber that big had tandem seating and only one pilot pit. (I had been inside a B25 before)

What was odd about this bird was that the fuselage had been reconfigured for executive transport complete with leather seats and a cool little bar to hold liquor bottles. Were these planes ever surplussed and converted for civilian use or was this perhaps a general's hack?

As with all Mr. Shupe's (and Colleagues) aircraft.....excellent! Thank you so much,

You did such a nice job on the A20C I wondered why you did not carry it over to the A20G and P70A2.
Sorry to hear you will remove more. What will you do with the B26 where you have extensive interior modeling.?
