I do recommend you visit youtube however and click 'watch in HD' for some cracking watching even if your not really interested in such detail its still nice to watch :engel016:


Stiz, yes March looks good still.
 
It was a joke back when I was doing Hixon and Nick was pestering me about doing AI to fill them all, if I remember correctly... I wasn't being serious by bringing it back up.

While I certainly wouldn't object to having the other 13-or-so aircraft that would have been operational for a Squadron at any one time, I also wouldn't inflict doing that on anyone, knowing how much personalisation was done on US aircraft and how little information is available to do them off.

phfew, you had me wondering there..
mind you, I am close to having painted a complete squadron of the 357th FG, so if you can make Leiston, I already have 25+ aircraft to fill that
 
I have a question for lewis or anyuone else involved in the project. Is it possible to see the aircraft cast shadows on itself from the VC? I like that very much in the default aircraft, but understood it was difficult to program?
If not it is not a big deal on an aircraft with already so much detail and realism, but it gives a nice extra dimension on especially the low wing aircraft.

kind regards,

Meso
 
forgive me if this has been discussed, but is this a whole new aircraft or is accusim an addon to the existing razorback you offer?
 
Meso, sorry the shadows in the VC are not enabled.

deimos256, the new P-47 has a much higher polygon count, new textures inside and out. It is a massive improvement over the older FSX/FS9 P-47.
 
deimos: It's a complete new aircraft - it would have to be, to accomodate the Accu-Sim features properly, which haven't been modelled in previous versions. I don't know how much of the old aircraft was used to develop the new one, but it will have to be new MDLs.

jankees: The two units I have done bases for (although Halesworth is back in the workshop because Lewis wants more... ;)) are the 56th FG (Zemke's Wolfpack - 61st, 62nd, 63rd FS) prior to their move to Boxted and the 362nd FG (377th, 378th and 379th FS) during 1944.

From the manual, there's a single repaint for a single aircraft from each group in the new pack - the 56th FG one is in Boxted colours, not Halesworth, but the 362nd one is in Wormingford colours - hence I did the base for it. I don't know what information I have for Leiston, or what's left of it on the ground to position it from, but I'll certainly have a look!

Edit: There's next to nothing of Leiston left on the ground, unfortunately, so positioning it will be pretty much guesswork. I can do it, but it won't be as accurate as I'd prefer.
 
Oh, my!!!! I've seen the videos and I think I've soiled myself. I did not purchase the B377 because I'm just not into the complexity of 4-engined aircraft. I expect I will purchase the P-47, I love how A2A has tried to capture all the nuances of the various systems and procedures in operating radial engined aircraft. :woot:Once again, A2A is setting the gold standard for FSX.
 
Well as always everyones helped out sop I dont really need to answer,..

but yes its a new aircraft under the new WOPIII line, for those with the current P47 for fsx, Scott has thought up an upgrade discount package jobby, more detail for that to follow.
