Milviz F-86F-30 Sabre - Released

Lovin it!!

D/L to engine start and not a hitch. Absolutely a work of art and a great flyer. First flight from Sheppard AFB up to 30K and tried a stall recovery. AMAZING!! Took almost 10K back to level flight but then, I took my time with it. :applause:

It's a real beauty !
Made my first flight from Bowerman, just a few minutes, low to high altitude, just to burn some fuel before landing.
Once again, I get quite a big FPS hit with that plane, just like with the Baron and the F-15, and even with the texture_max_load at 1024. However, given the fact that many people told me they didn't have any FPS hit at all with this Sabre, I am now investigating (once more) my various settings to try to spot the cause of the hit.

The Sabre remains enjoyable (a lot) in the not-so-crowded areas, I love it so far :)

Probably the cause of the FPS hit it's the engine smoke effect.

Damn....Those shots look anything but CG....Too real. Any chance you can send em to me at 1024x768 or higher(same aspect ratio)? I want the top one for my desktop.

No, it's not the smoke. Actually, the FPS are quite smooth in external view. It's only in the VC. I'm still investigating on that. The amount of people affected by the FPS hit is quite small, so it had to be some incorrect graphic setting or tweak on my side.

I have started working on this one which I taxi by every time I fly from my club in Tatoi:

The graphics are awesome but the best thing is that they are combined with a fantastic FDE. These both give this plane some real soul!

Fly the guts out of this bird and you will have the time of your life!

Rgr :)
 
Today, I will be working on a much simplified version of the paint kit so that everyone may use it... Should be done soon...

We, the MV team, would like to thank all of you for all the compliments. They are truly heartwarming...

Thanks,

HEHEHE....1.12 Gig in PhotoShop...It is intense! Scrolling and zooming get's interesting...I did take a nap while it was saving some of the final files!:sleep:

Barnes, I'm using CS 8...On the next couple I do I'm going to clean up PSD's and then flatten them...and then paint on them, When the major painting is done I'll transfer it to fresh PSD and save it that way. That will eliminate the huge files while painting.:isadizzy:

Thanks Colin - that will be very apprechiated.
 
My FPS hit is gone :)
I switched from the internal FPS limitation (I have never been so lucky with the other FPS-limitation modules) to the "1/2 refresh rate" technique with the NVidia drivers. Now both the Baron and the Sabre fly smoooooooooooooth !!! :ernae: I haven't tested the F-15 yet.
The GPS unit of the Baron still hits the FPS a bit when I turn it on, but it's fine like that, the FPS go back up after a few seconds.
