I've had the itch to do some repaints on this since I first heard of the release. I need a reason to install my repaint tools to build my enthusiasm regarding FSX in general

Hi there to Yoyo and all,

The "megaupload" link to the broken texture seems to be "broken"... ;
is there another one to get to the file, please ?

Thanks for the help,

Cheers,

Fleurdelys

I posted a new link in the WilgaX topic on the Aerosoft forum

This is a follow up on my previous reply and request for a working link to the USA texture...

Got the replacement texture and the plane seemed worked perfectly until...

- I exited from the flight and was looking at the revolving plane in the selection screen;
- After less than a minute, all the textures went out and i was left with an unpainted model;
- I tried to select another aircraft but the program was busy elsewhere and didn't respond until i got a message that there was no more available memory for FSX and it CTD !

I tried to restart FSX but didn't get it to work, so closed down the PC altogether...

I started the PC after a small delay and opened FSX as usual.
I selected the same USA Wilga plane and it showed correctly as before; chose it and went to my airfield of choice to see if I would get the same results...
It opened OK and I exited to the selection window where the above repeated itself anew...
Lost all paint and managed to exit before I had the same "no more memory available for FSX again as I could hear the PC working hard in the background...

Has anyone experienced the same with this texture or is it just my lucky day ?

I had flown with another texture before without any apparent problem (The USSR one)

Now, let's not bring politics into this equation, please ...

Looking forward to your feedback...

Fleurdelys

Update: It seems that you don't even have to put the plane on the tarmac to get this result and it would also apply to the USSR one; just let the plane revolve a couple of time in the selection screen and it looses all of its painting...
What is the matter ?

 

[OleBoy]

I noticed that slightly when I loaded it up the first time also. Although FSX, nor my PC hung up. When I selected it originally, it appeared to start loading fine, then once it got in sim, the textures were partially there. The model/textures lagged very heavily until suddenly it was all colored and ready to fly. After that everything seemed fine and the flight went well.

For reassurance, the file I uploaded was the very same that was posted by YoYo in the Aerosoft forums. Something is wrong. Either with the model, or the textures themselves. I haven't checked the task manager after loading each of the paints to see what the memory usage is, but it makes me wonder if they all perform this way, or if it just the USA scheme causing all the fuss.

Hi, I havent problem with this US textures, but used different version. Ok here my all folder with texture.N113AS, try this and overwrite all textures (do backup for sure) http://www.megaupload.com/?d=NQT9DVSD . Give me feedback is ok or not.

... And finished the new skin. Warsaw Aeroclub.

All will be in one big pack (200 Mb) or separate in two parts.

YoYo, please do not post IRL photos in this topic, only screenshots from FSX! Thx!

LOL - they are sure superb screens

 

[Fireball6]

I notice that some people are not able to switch between the liveries/models. A solution could be to create a new texture-folder = texture.827. Now copy the following files from your texture-folder = thumbnail, Wilga_cowl_flaps_T, Wilga_devices, Wilga_devices2, Wilga_elements_T, Wilga_fus_1_T, Wilga_fus_2_T, Wilga_vert_T, Wilga_wing_1_T and Wilga_wing_2_T to the new texture.827-folder. After this, copy a texture.cfg-file from one of the other texture-folders to the texture.827-folder. At last, change the texture=-line from the first entry of the aircraft.cfg [fltsim.0]to texture=827. Thats it. Now you should be able to switch between all liveries/models without problems.

As another purchaser with the 'can't fly American' problem, I'm wondering where is Aerosoft. They're well aware of the problem on their forum.

The FS Weekend is on in the Netherlands and Aerosoft is always represented there. Coupled with the fact that the developer is from Russia, the (busy) weekend probably got in the way. I'm sure things will be looked into tomorrow.

Please take note that "I can FLY" the US version of the Wilga, thanks to Yoyo's posting all of his textures on megaupload; they work perfectly !
What I mean is that following my flight and if I stick too long in the selection screen, prior to changing plane and/or liveries, the revolving Wilga model in the selection screen looses all of its textures and if i persist on that screen more than a few seconds longer, that is when the problem really start and FSX crashes ...
The message that I got on my first crash referred to "not having any more or enough memory to use FSX" with the PC struggling earnestly in the background...

I can probably resolve the problem by not loosing time on the selection screen and moving on to another skin or plane right away...

Not being very well versed on the ins and outs of PCs, I dont really have the foggiest idea of what is really going on except that this is the first time that this has occurred and only with this particular aircraft...

I'm wondering if it is not due to the programming itself but I lack the expertise to really understand why and how...

While I don't have this one I have an idea what might be happening. 200MB for one livery seems awfully big. What size are the textures, and how many are there?

I think it is a misunderstanding - 200MB is the size of YoYo's upcoming repaint-pack. He did a few wonderfull liveries for the Wilga and will make one or two packages to share them with us. The original textures are all .dds-files with a maximum single size of 4MB (~30MB for one livery, some a bit more or less). We did not have the strange situation that fleurdelys describe in his post above, during the Beta-Tests - so it is not very easy to resolve this problem - but i am sure that aerosoft or the OctopusG (Developer) will search and help out. Please post those things at the aerosoft forum - then it will be easier for them to notice :mixedsmi:

Check some pages before, for sure not only the one.
I think about series, red, blue and different. Perhaps on Avsim and Flight Sim I will have a problem with do all in one file and better for users too I suppose.

Hello :salute:

Yoyo your skin is very awesome and incredible, ......

Thank You for kind word, it motivates

 

[YoYo]

Finished the new one, yellow.

The POLL : CLICK ! Please vote.

Hello, I think in this week I will release my all skins (I will edit this post with screenshots when all will be finished) for Aerosoft Wilga X.
It will be 8 real repaints from Polish Aeroclubs - with red colors, blue colors and others.

Id like to Ask You what do You prefer, exe file, separate in zip ect. Above is a poll for this with simply questions. Please vote what do You want.
Thx!

 

[imn2sims]

First off let me join in with the others here and say how superb your liveries are YoYo . My security settings won't allow me to go to the Poll website but if it would I would certainly vote for the .zip file option as I try to never run any .exe files on my FSX computer if I don't have to. Thanks again for all your work!
