Epic Victory Mini Biz Jet Released!

Hi! This repaint is awesome and I like it very much, but the flag is wrong!
Italian flag on aircraft is green, white, red (front, center, rear) on the both sides of the vertical surface, so the green is the first color from the front of the flag and the red is the last....

Regards,
Luca
 
Ahhh... Nope.. Mine is supposed to be brown. Having the 'pure black' for transparency made the ring and font way to fuzzy and rough. When Dwight put white on brown, it really looked tons better and cleaner.

You can see what I mean by bringing up the Nav ring on the MFD. Its semi transparent with pure black and you can see rough edges.

So desu ne. No worries, mate. I believe the fuzziness has to do with anti-aliasing through transparency. I switched my GPU to super-sampling for it, but it does take quite a good GPU to maintain good FPS.
 
Peritas,

thanks for the input, just uploaded a corrected version. That´s what happens when you just flip elements without a second thought...:redf: Now it´s Allright! Hope you like it!

Fellas, I've been trying to save a cold and dark start with the VLJ with the parking mode engaged, cowls off, baggage out and Exit door open but the door keeps hanging up. The top half opens and immediately closes, the bottom half doesn't want to budge and the top half opening/closing keeps recycling until I exit back to the Free Flight screen? Anybody else experience this?

Hey Flight1,

A couple of times, I have had sound recycling, but not the door. Try rebooting the plane as it sits and see if that clears it.

This has, in the past, been caused from a looping gauge, but I should now have no more looping gauges that constantly access the system concerning the environment. I have no idea what could be causing this. I'll try to replicate it myself.



@Alex / Grunau_Baby,

Nice work on the interior Sir! Love it.

Great to see people playing around with the interior elements.

Make certain that you're not parked next to a fueling area. The activation box (fuel trigger) is much too large in FSX and will interfere with door animations, among other things.
 
Hey Ed,
Sorry about the elevator. I'll put that on the list for updates. It slipped through...
Great looking paint scheme! Cool that you are also putting uniforms on the pilots.
Bill
Not a problem Bill, I'll release it without that and make a replacement texture available when I can. Just gotta dress the lady and it'll be done. Woohoo, lol.:rolleyes:
 
With Ed making a Air force paint I just had to make a Navy paint

Could I please req a painter to do a CAF Victory please. It would look excellent next to its partners the Epic Lt and kodiak.

AAARRRGGGHHH!!! Of course, at Nellis only 2 Helipads and the Fueling Station in the drop down list. What are the chances I'd pick an airport (1 of 24,000) to set up my cold & dark with nowhere else to chose from for parking from the drop down list. For me, chances are always 100%, just like the supermarket, I always end up in the line where: A. the person ahead of me can't find their wallet, B. they have accumulated 385 coupons they want to redeem now, C. the debit card reader is down, D. the checkout computer is out of paper tape, E. the cashier is out of money to make change, F. the person ahead has only 6 items but 5 are missing priice codes, G.................

LOLOLOLOL....

I thought that only happens to me.... lololol...


Thanks Fr. Bill for the heads up on that.

I was ready to start digging through all the gauge code to see if one was looping..

High Rez Textures

Bill,

Are you going to have a high rez texture pack for the Victory, like the one Robert Rivera did for the Kodiak?

Thanks,

Joe
 
Hey Joe,

Thats a good question. I hadnt thought of that. Already, they are at 2048 pixels, but only DXT-5 format, (16bit). I could bump them up to 32bit. They will be hard to run on some computers. Well, quite a few... lol.
