Wow, what a surprise! I somehow missed the development of this model. I think both these models will make a good port-over project and hope someone will take on the task. The prop textures appear to be on a Misc texture file and for the life of me I'm not sure how to isolate the material in that file to tweak the prop(it's not a simple drop in replacement from what I see). But if someone takes on the project I would be willing to convert the rest of the textures over to dds format & test them. I think this could be a real winner in FSX.
 
The prop is in the spinprop.bmp and can be edited with DXTBMP in the most traditionnal way :)

Newcomer, can you click on the overhead buttons from the default view position in the VC ? I can't click them until I move my eyepoint very close to them... :/

Same here - I use the pop-up windows to operate the buttons. The only ("essential") button that is not available as a "pop-up" is the button for the plane´s searchlight (which is on the copitlot´s right hand side).
 
A stoof with a roof at last

I have added these entries below the tailhook entry in the cfg for cat launch



[launch_assistance]
launch_bar_pivot = 11.00, 0.00, -7.25
launch_bar_lug = 11.00, 0.00, -7.25


[LSO]
LSOAdjustSpeed=0.65

Just a quick edit to see how it handles

new prop textures

Ah, thanks a lot for this confirmation. I was wondering if it was just my computer or a general issue.
I guess we'll have to wait for the FSX-conversion to get a fully working virtual cockpit then :)

To be honest - before you mentioned that the buttons were clickable, I hadn´t noticed that :kilroy:!
As I have Track IR it is now easy to "lean forward" and "click" ...

Thanks bruce 448 for the cfg entries!
 
plane is amazing !

i uploaded prop Fix just now

Is there a manual available? And also, is there a C-1 yet?

There are E-1B, C-1A, and S2F-1-2 manuals downloadable from the net.

There is a C-1A that will be released this week, possibly Tuesday. Just putting finishing touches on her.
