I did the original "B" model and then you shortened it to the "A" model IIRC.

Really ?, I honestly cant remember, I do remember doing a new air drop animated model that took ages to get included in the package and I worked closely with a guy who made all sorts of specific panels in the VC that needed click spots, that one was never added in either, only existed here and on the other guys PC, think his name was Presley ?, Cliff Presley, used to hang out here before some sort of upset, anyway it was a good set of 2D and VC hot spot panels, radios, systems and fuel panels.

Thanks guys.

Great stuff, have a few already, infact been adding A2A 3D lights to my Belfast the last couple of days, hit a few bumps, but got it sorted now. You may have noticed her in some of the pics in the refuelling thread. I've not bought much payware recently, but have spent a lot on AS products prior to the slowdown. So these are very much welcome, thank you.

PS. Michael, now you've brought it up, you realise no one will buy it now knowing that, be as well getting her out now, lol. BTW, I don't need her.

Maybe, but no one is buying it now, thats why its up for freeware release, I think the criteria is two or three months with no sales or something ?. Shame as I was going to throw the Gmax source out with as well, might throw the Connie Gmax out as well shortly, really cant see the need to keep them locked up when the whole model is now freeware, some of them would make very good AI models to populate the virtual skies.

Michael,

funny, I had been eyeing her up for that very purpose (AI), was very close to buying her about a month ago, decided against it, it was the price that got my attention, but realised I would hardly get the good of her, not my cuppa. If she was free, yeah, I'd probably download her, but doubt if I'd use her, so ignore me on that.

As for 'throwing out' the source files, if you mean bin them, I implore you not to. There are other sims like CFS2 that some talented individual could do some work on. these older FS9 titles are ideal for a sim like CFS2, with the source files there could be a real CFS2 version against a conversion. Also, somebody could use them to learn with if it inspires them. Me, myself have been slowly learning FSDS to convert some FS9 to CFS2, it was exactly that that got me into learning modelling. While Gmax is not my chosen media, it may be for some other budding modeller.

I think you get my drift.

When I say 'throw out' I mean http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=560 :icon_lol:

Does that make more sense ?. Just checking back through all my files I seem to be missing 2005, not good as that was a rather productive year for meshes.

Michael,

Yeah, I saw your thread earlier and downloaded all of them for prosterity, maybe one day I'll progress to GMax. I just thought I'd check, I didn't want to see them go to waste, would've been a pity. Whilst I can't use your source codes, I salute you for sharing them.

Some of my favourite planes are by AS, and there may be a good chance you had a hand (or more) in them, I thank you.

I've been trying to take note of where the AS designers go after release, be assured I'll find out that if they made something I liked, I'll follow them. :d

Awesome! Now I have a Beaufort to go with my Beaufighter!

Thanks, Alphasim!
 
Thanks to AlphaSim for making these planes available as freeware, and definitely thanks to all the creative people associated with AlphaSim who made the planes in the first place. :)
I grabbed the Beaufort and the Tu-16 Badger package. Back in my previous life as an intel guy we kept tabs on (then) Soviet Badger bases in the Black Sea area. I would like to set up a base with some AI Badgers, just to experiment with doing AI traffic myself.

Yes, the Connies do! (so does the F7F Tigercat) :ernae:

Just nabbed the F-80. I do like the early kerosine burners.

And the F-111 is back in the "store", if you've been wanting to get it.

I seen it mentioned somewhere that it was being taken down while they upgraded it,anyone know if it was or not?There is no mention of extra features on the store page.

Just like to say thank you for these lovely aeroplanes.

Have spent an hour or two this afternoon, trying flying the Swift (low level as it was intended) and the Beaufort over South West England. Managed to meet a Belfast at St Mawgan.

The Beaufort brings back memories as was one of the first plastic model kits that I had as a child (think it was built by Frog)

Much appreciated,

Martin

Well, I just got the F-111 and it appears the only upgrade is they put HUD data on the gunsight, rather than just a plain reticle. The screen shots I've seen in the past only showed a reticle. I ported it over to FSX and it fly's great, the FPS is good, the exterior is beautiful, but I'm going to have to swap out some guages.
 
Thanks Alpha, some really nice AC here, the Mig 25 is a bit of a beast and the F80 is deffinatly a keeper, Morton did some very nice skins for the F80, for CFS2 guys who converted there's over, but they should work fine in FS9, check out Mortons skins in the Sim-outhouse library, he's done quite a few so there about 130 files down the list.
cheers ian
 
The two-seater model was left out of the MiG-25 set by mistake. I just uploaded it to Avsim and here. It should be available from both tomorrow I would expect. The way to tell it is the newer one before downloading is that the file size will be about 6.5 MB. The earlier (current as I write this) one was just over 5.5 MB. Go for the bigger one. :icon_lol:

:ernae:
 
I have all of these downloaded, except the Swift and the Badger. When I attempt to download them, after seeing the Avsim download page, when it should jump to the "file download" screen (save, open, etc.) I receive an URL name and a message about a higher directory. Is anyone else getting the same message?
