RealFlight F6F Hellcat Released

I can not get the gear up.

I clicked on the lever and tried to lift it up and nothing happens, I tried to just click on the lever and not pull on it and it does not move. I can turn on the switches and other things, but no gear.
 
Great shots Nick!

Question, on your 2nd shot are those whisps of grass growing through the tarmac a edit or do you see that in FSX. If the latter what package has it :)
 
I did throw in a few extra blades of grass too though just to break up the lines a little :kilroy: but it is, for the most part, Plum Island as Michael has stated.
 
Dean is a Champion!

I purchased and downloaded the F6 today
Had some texture issues with the Gauges in the cockpit. Within 2 hours of my posting Dean had the soultion, posted the patch, and had me replace several files in the "Texture.Commom" folder.......

WOW-What Customer service:applause::applause::applause::applause:.....and if I am correct Dean is 6 hours ahead of me so it is past the normal working hours....


If anyone out there is thinking of purchasing the Hellcat for FSX from REAL FLIGHT- BUY IT NOW!!!!!

With this type of service I am now a devoted fan and customer and will stay with this company..I can see many future purchases for Real Flight

P.S.- The F6 is fantastic!!!!!
 
Just bought it. Yes - i too have the VC texture problem and also a FPS problem with the self shadowing switched on.

Fantastic product otherwise :jump::jump:
 
A2A lights for the F6F Hellcat

I played around and now have the F6F with two bright wing landing lights and a strobe on each wing tip.
For anyone that has A2A,here is the light set up for the aircraft .cfg file:

[LIGHTS]
//Types: 1=beacon, 2=strobe, 3=navigation, 4=cockpit, 5=landing, 6=taxi, 7=recognition, 8=wing, 9=logo, 10=cabin
light.0=8, 4.2, 2.1, 0.4, su_combustion_start
light.1=8, 4.2, -2.1, 0.4, su_combustion_start
light.2=8, 4.2, 2.1, 0.1, su_combustion_start
light.3=8, 4.2, -2.1, 0.1, su_combustion_start
light.4=8, 4.2, 2.1, -0.1, su_combustion_start
light.5=8, 4.2, -2.1, -0.1, su_combustion_start
light.6=5, 2.11, 10.4, 00.00, fx_Shockwave_landing_light // Shockwave light
light.7=5, 2.11, -10.4, 00.00, fx_Shockwave_landing_light // Shockwave light
light.8=2, 1.7, -20.10, 1.0, Fx_shockwave_strobe_2 // Shockwave light
light.9=2, 1.7, 20.10, 1.0, Fx_shockwave_strobe_2 // Shockwave light


Attached is a picture but was not able to catch the strobes. This was my first attempt at doing A2A 3D Redux lights for a 3rd party aircraft....

@ MudMarine: You're not completely alone with joystick/rudder strangeness and the guns. I don't have the issue where the ammo covers flap open/closed but to fire the machine guns I have to rotate one of the brake pedals on my rudder control. Which one doesn't matter and it looks a little funny with the guns randomly kicking in while you try to do a coordinated turn. :costumes: The trigger button on my joystick doesn't work even though I've double checked to confirm the brake function is mapped to the control on the joystick. I'm using the CH Fighter Stick Pro and the CH pedals but I don't have their throttle control like you do. Also, I don't have FSUIPC installed. My FSX Accel is a fairly clean install on XP Pro 32bit and I haven't done any custom key configurations on either controller yet nor did I install the CH software (its not supposed to be necessary). So, they should be pretty much "out of the box".

I also experience this. My setup is FSX Acceleration with Saitek X45 flight stick and rudder pedals. Guns fire with the brakes and nothing else. It is odd, but not a problem.
 
I have to agree with the great customer service! I was having a problem with glass textures not showing up and posted the problem on the RealFlight forum. I got a very quick response from Chuck and a couple of patches to download. It didn't quite fix the problem the way I was hoping, but Chuck said that a service pack is forthcoming that will address the issue. I assume that the issue with the guns will be addressed too. I wish that every add-on vendor were as good as these guys are. The F6F is a joy to fly and visually stunning! This was money well spent! Now I can't wait until they release the Bearcat!
 
Time to get out of mine (Edited shot)

More products of this superb standard please RealFlight :applause:
 
Its too late for that.. we've already set our own standard.. things can only get better.

I can only get landing lights to work...no others. Anybody got any ideas?

Hi , the lights are all run with the switches on the right hand panel with the only " Default " light being the landing lights, there are no light entries in the aircraft.cfg , we used only attach points as the FSX sdk allows this method now, the only lighting.cfg entries were used for engine smoke.

"my wife use to as well many moons ago !! I won't go there promise "
PS EgoR64 , you have to go there once in a while or she will seek a divorse
