Thanks Bill

ps My virtual cheque for 1.6 million virtual dollars is in the mail.
 
Side note; For those that might not read manuals.

The new Garmin MFD (center panel) has some new innovations.
* Lowered refresh rates for better frame rate performance
* Map rendering sleep mode (Map menu button on bottom row of MFD)
* Terrain button (night mode) [stock FS frame rate saver]
* Declutter; now available on this MFD, allows you to take out all rendered objects in the MFD down to just airfields so that frame rates (with day time textures in map mode) will increase as there are less objects being rendered (and rendered slower or slowly).


Then also, for even slower computers, I have the 'High Performance Textures Pack' installer. This reduces huge FSX DDS textures down to 1024 pixeles square, and in FS2004, textures go from 32bit High Rez, down to DXT3 standard resolution.

Should work out for everyone. :d

Bill, good morning.
I have a question for you. Are the sounds default or custom?
Thanks and God bless.

They are stock FS Cessna Caravan soundpacks, both in FSX and FS2004. They are directly linked.

I was highly impressed with the sounds, especially with FSX, and simply linked them. Its my thoughts that the sounds would be very similar in the two airframes, (Kodiak and Caravan). Neither are pressurized (like the Epic is) so I felt the soundpacks from FS were more then adequate.

HD, what in Tarnation are you doing up this late??

$24.95.

Thanks for pointing that out. I will put that into the website right now.

The original Kodiak was this price. I havent raised it.

Thank you so much LH, I have a question

I dont wanna lose the old Kodiak missions that came with it,

I fly FX but I still fly fs9 as well
 
Rats, just ordered the Aerosoft F-16, but this will be on top of my list next month (Or the month after that, as I'll probably be moving in a couple of weeks!)

:applause:

I believe Bill answers this in the Q & A on his website.

I have copied the relevant section from his webpage

Question: Can I install this over the older version of Kodiaks for FS?
Answer: No. You MUST delete the older version or you will see other versions of the older models mixed in with
the new platforms and textures.

HTH

BTW I really appreciate the time and trouble Bill goes to in producing these wonderful aircraft and the amount of valuable information he provides for end-users.

I already have and enjoy his Bellanca Viking.The Kodiak is now a must buy for me (when I can afford it) together with the others in his hangar.

Well done Bill!Another stellar aircraft for us to enjoy.

best
