A Lockheed "Rounder"

Thank you Gerard,

I think the package is fine with the textures released.

Different aircraft may have different pilots or clothing, like the tanker has civilian pilots and requires different textures.

The S2crew texture was not needed as it was a texture applied to a hidden animation controlling part.

The radiotexture was not needed in the tanker or civilian models as the radios in back are not there.

But thanks for bringing up the possibility of oversight. :)
 
Lodestar Textures

I currently have eight textures you have done for the Lodestar series. I know there are more out there as WIP textures.

I would like see what you have as WIP and consider if we can use some of all of these textures for the release package.

I think there have been two interior textures done for the passenger versions. Am I correct?

If you would like your textures included, let me know, and conversely, if you do not want them included, please let me know.

If I do not hear from you, your paint scheme will not be added to the package by default.

I think we could have a full beta available by end of August.

I believe Firekitten, Maarten, and Ferondoe have excellent textures in progress and would like to consider them as well.

Anyone else?

If nobody else is working on it, I have been working on a skin for the FSX version for the C-60 to represent the Commemorative Air Force's "Goodtime Gal". I know, due to variations to the type it won't be 100% accurate. I think, anyway. The WIP model I downloaded doesn't have the RDF "football" under the chin as CAF's does, the exhaust is longer on the model, and the structures under the fuselage in the sim model also appear to be lacking in the CAF's bird. I'd be willing to bet these differences are artifacts of many modifications needed to the airframe over its long life. Things just don't stay "factory fresh."
I am LOVING all the work I've seen on the Lodestar and Harpoon series. Cannot wait to see the finished project. I've always been so impressed with the work Milton Shupe and Team bring to the simulator. It would be a much poorer experience without it. Please accept my gratitude for your efforts and talents!
 
Okay, here's the natural metal Canadian Pacific version. A green-over-neutral-grey version is coming, but I have to do embossed-effect registration letters from scratch for it. Not going to upload this anywhere else -- it's a release package exclusive.

And here I've been working on a version of this skin for the last two days. Yours is much better.
Oh well, what I get for being such a late comer to the party. :crushed:
 
Hi Milton

You are very welcome to use any of my textures. As the originals were all done before Rachaels paint kit, please download the latest versions which now includes the great paintkit textures and the updated interiors.

Aero Africaine

Hi everybody!
I'm following this tread and I would like to congratulate Milton and all the team for their fantastic work!
I'm french I find that the Aeroafricaine airline had a Lodestar, it was a company which depends of Air Algérie.




Do you want to include it in the package?

Best regards!
And sorry for my bad english!
 
Julesdr,

Your English is very good. Thank you for commenting. Hopefully someone will do this livery; it's a great representation. Thank you

Thank you Andre.

Got the first four Andre but these are not coming down; I think it wants me to log in; must have reached my limit for today. :)

I'll try again later.

Not sure what the problem is here Milton, I didn't think there was a limit on downloads.

If they don't download tomorrow I'll send you the zip files.
 
Hi again,

Whether I do a "complete" AI version would depend on the frame rate hit of your "lite" version. We'll see. :)
