I have just released the Aeromarine 39B at Simviation to day !
This plane have give me more work that expected (specialy whit the animation)
The mission was done and I have made 4 mission, 2 day mission and 1 night mission, the last mission will be a multyplayer mission.
Now I'm attacking the last part of my projet, The USS Langley life boat, Is not so easy to do this little boat, I have no plan just some picture. so if somebody want to help, I will be able to release it more soon.:icon29:


To see this plane in action go here

Mery Chrirtmass and Happy new years !
 
Here is the 39B approaching my version of the CV-1 Langley. This was my FS9 model which I upgraded the textures and fixed a few zits and then compiled with Xtomdl so it is FSX native. I have it loaded in aicarriers. BTW the Aeromarine has a hard time catching up to the Langley on final. This is a well done plane and I look forward to your new Langley.

Best, Paul

Lovely looking aircraft:applause: I have an issue with the windscreen in that it is opaque and with a pale blue colour in vc mode.

Yes Some have reported this problem in my email

I have checked my sdk configuration and I'm pretty sure it was compiled whit fsx sp2 acceleration sdk ? is there a way to verify this in FSX I d'ont remember how ?

look very nice :applause::jump: I think I have your static FS9 model somewhere in fs9, Have you made the life boat on your model ?

I find hard to made those life boats :kilroy:

Yeah, now that I realize what I am looking at, I get the same thing. I took a look at the textures and most are DXT1 without alpha which means no transparency. I can't easily find a texture for the windscreens so if it was done in the model the material must have some transparency. Here is what it looks like in FSX Acceleration.

I have aply a flightsimx color (whit no texture) but I have put a setdefault transparency whit src alpha and a invsrcalpha in gmax and all was transparent here whene I have uploaded to simv ? does I need to put also a dx3 texture ?
 
I searched them for something representing a windshield texture but could find nothing.
 
Ok I have made a dxt3 texture whit a grey texture as alpha and have updated my model
all seem ok here
I will ship to Simviation tomorrow, new version is V2.00 (winchield corrected)

Erase all the Aeromarine folder before instaling version 2, Is there a windows.dds in the texture in the news version ?
 
I still have the opaque windscreen in vc mode only. I deleted the original file as suggested.
 
I.m lost whit this :mix-smi::mix-smi: ?

Take me 6 attemp to get the D... file on Simv last night !

Somebody can explain to me how is mading is transparent windows in fsx acceleration ?

Here what I have do , Made an flightsimx texture in gmax whit "Set Default Transparent" (src alpha and invsrcalpha aply) + a dx3 windows.dds texture whit a grey alpha as difuse map slots for a basic windows is this correct ?

Here all is transparent why is so complicated whit FSX ?
