AS A-6E FDE Update

[mal998]

Here are updated flight dynamic files for the aging, but still fun-to-fly AS A-6E Intruder (both packs 1&2). As usual back up your original files and replace them with the new ones.

I recommend turning realism slider to full as thats the way I re-worked the flight dynamics. Let me know how they work for you all.

Thanks for that one. Looking forward to the A-4 FDE.

Duckie has three nice A-6E repaints listed under "FS 2004 Military skins - Cold War". They just need converting to DDS, adding a cfg file, sorting what is common and what is not into folders (a couple common bits are improved over the default). After that they work great in FSX. They are all the earlier hi-vis gray on white base scheme. I flew them all the time while helping test this update for mal998.

VA-65 Tigers

VA-52 Knightriders

VMA-121

Thanks Frank, I have all of them converted and setup. Give me a few days and I'll package them up and upload here.

Doublecool,
make sure you have this fx file in your effects folder:

fx_ALPHA_A6_vapour1

With the holidays and all, just giving this post a bump for those who own the A-6E and might have missed this FSX update.

Unfortunately, the vapor is black
What is the solution?
The effect folder contains the fx_ALPHA_A6_vapour1

Are you seeing any other aircraft with black vapor trails or contrails?

No!

 

[Priller]

No!

Open the effect file with notepad, see what texture file it is pointing to and take it from there.

Ahhh...

So,

Missing the A_f1.bmp and A_f1a.bmp

 

[Priller]

Now what you do is take another white effects texture file and rename it so that they have the exact same names of the missing files.

Or maybe some good soul here can send provide them. I don't have them.

The smoke is already white but still cubic
