(Payware) C-90B Released
- Thread starter sidler
- Start date
A new FSX Kingair release should be about 15 pages and triple the post by now.
This one faded quick but the good news is there are alot of dedicated tweekers who have already fixed alot of minor issues. I used a mod last night that puts invisible hotspots that are mousable on the forward display so you can change heading/course without looking down or using the ap popup.

Me thinks my bank and the IRS would notice if I made a hundred grand purchase online
"Party and spend like a Gov employee."
Luv' your comment about party like..... from being a govt' employee I remember that when the mgr and supervisors got a retreat to some resort, we the employees got a tutorial about not excepting any gifts or gratuities, just one of the oxymorons of working for the feds
I worked for a state and use to fly public servants, uuum I mean "officials" to beach resorts for the weekend to attend meetings on poverty. I did not know you needed gold clubs or to bring along your pretty secretary, uum I mean "daughter" either.
We had 2 Kingair 200s, 402B, 182RG and a Bell 206. Also a Lear 35 for the real estate side. Flew the wings off everything up until election time then nobody went any where for fear of being labelled "wastefull".
Then after the elections it was back to doing 50 mile flights in Kingairs with 2 souls onboard and doing photo ops landing at highschools in the heli at 500+ a hr.

That looks pretty nice. For the repainters out there, these days the US registered C-90B's have to have their inboard, lower engine nacelles painted flat black by requirement (anti flash from the bottom beacon). Subtle but important detail if someone wants to get the textures right. In fact, I think that is a requirement now on all us registered King Air models.

I am eagerly awaiting the US Navy CONA paints....or any US Military paints, for that matter
Anybody working on some repaints for this beauty ?
I must admit I've never seen a new release appear to lose interest on this forum so fast in all my life ??
Its a good sign! Not too many moans and everyones busy flying the beauty which in my option is better done than the flight 1 Cessna mustang
Oh its getting plenty of attention at their "unofficial" site. I quit going there a long time ago because of some wierd cookie issue that had me dropping alot of my antivirus protection just to post there.
I gotta say its more like a console gaming forum with some pretty nasty post. Its about 50/50 with those who understand this is not a cure for cancer and Carenado will correct these issues. The other are tired of paying more and more for prematurely release products. There are already at least a dozen tweeks and fixes to some issues.
The Kingair really is not that bad at all. I am just still getting hit hard simular to the F-15 with full avionics/HUD and more detailing. 15-20 with some stutters around airports.
Again I think the pricing and the loooooooong wait for a Kingair has everyone feeling let down.

I Just visited the Avsim Unofficial Carenado site and I'd rather be forced to listen to 1000 hours of "Gardeners Question Time". At least the conversations would be civil, if not my cup of tea.

Better than the F1 Cessna Mustang is pretty high praise in my oppinion. I think it is one of the best all round!

...That would be nice...especially considering there are myriad switches on the upper panel that look like they do exactly that, but have no functionality....
From the Unofficial forums.
If you want to disable the ambient lighting // out the first light entry in aircraft.cfg.. Should look like this.
[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing
//light.0 = 4, 0.65, 0.00, 1.00, fx_vclightcarcn
light.1 = 4, 1.90, 0.00, -0.50, fx_vclightcarcn0
light.2 = 10, 1.20, 0.00, 2.90, fx_vclightcarcnb
light.3 = 10, -4.80, 0.00, 4.00, fx_vclightcarcn2
light.4 = 10, -9.50, 0.00, 3.85, fx_vclightcarcn2
Not a fix from from the pics it removes the ambient lighting that lights up the cockpit area. But still the panel lighting is way to strong but its a start.
