ALABEO Pitts released! (payware)

Well there is nothing really new yet on the website.

I hope they have paypal - mentions using a credit card.

Did you click on "Incomings" on the left navigation panel? There are a bunch of new screenshots of their two initial product offerings:
  1. Pitts S-2S
  2. Sukhoi SU-26
 
Looks like the Pitts may be available. I'm on my iPod posting this and can't tell for sure

Hi Olboy

I have only had a quick look and i cant find a layered paint kit - unless its well hidden.

Im no expert but i think that the flight model feels right and certainly aeros are fun.

This knocks spots off the old favourite - the Addictive sims one (shame as there are many repaints)

I've got plenty of Pitts aircraft for the sim. And the Addictive Simulations Pitt's was/is a great subject for painting. I did many repaint for it and enjoyed it. Not to be negative, but I am. If Alabeo follows stride of Carenado, and don't supply a layered paint template, they won't get any of my cash. I'll wait for their competitor. No paintkit=no sale
 
In that case you wont ever have the joy of just gazing at this model - it looks like you can just reachout and run your hands allong that lushous, shiny skin.

Must go and take a cold shower! LOL

This is true. Although I get my gratification when I have the ability to apply "my" brushes, to "my" purchase. If I want to look at something beautiful, I'll gaze, and slobber at a real life beautiful woman :icon_lol:

To add to my above comments, like any model that we have in our hangers, they all eventually get pushed aside for the "next" like any new toy.
 
Looks great for the website.

Now what is the flight model truly like - stalls, slide-slips and spins all realistic ?

Can you pay by paypal ?

Oleboy have you overclocked your pc yet ?
 
Just follow the steps I gave you - nice and smooth over here in overclocked land !!!

It was made to be overclocked - that was the official thread !

First off just when booting go into bios and save the current profile with the name "Default".

If it does not work the first time (it probably will however unless you entered something wrong) then on next boot after crash go into bios and load default.

Then try again. What could really go wrong? Most problems are when overclocking far too high and over a period of time.

(personally I would just try again without loading default)

I hereby label you "wimp of the realm" (passes sword from one shoulder to the next....just kidding!).

PM me if you wish to discuss and allay your fears through each step of the process.

My apology for going off topic folks.

About the time I was going to start over clocking, I was already moving forward and involved with a repaint. When I get that finished I will make the attempt to over clock.

Meanwhile, back to the topic at hand. :salute:
 
No problem Oleboy, they helped me build my PC here specifically to OC and I've been too much of a scaredy cat to try it. Well, partly because FSX has been excellent for me w/o OC. However, some of the new Orbx stuff is taxing it and I can't have that, so I will have to OC now. ;)

BTW, isn't Sibwings working on a Pitts as well? As for the textures, I'm not surprised it's just a white texture. Wasn't the model made by Carenado and the rest handled by the other group?
