Well, there's still tons of aircraft out there never done properly for FSX...so why do the popular ones two- or threefold?

Could've sworn there was a Do-328 released a few months back....:icon_lol:
 
I agree virtual models (to me) are like plastic or even the rc models I fly. They are constructed as such and take as long, or longer to make. I was trying to explain this to a friend of mine that builds beautiful rc B-17's. I said you should build or buy a fast computer and get FSX and some great aircraft to fly. I explained they were like our rc models but better because when we crash them they are reborn good as new. He didn't get it and is of the opinion "it's just a game".

I buy, build and paint virtual models to have a flying replica of a plane that there is no way in hell that I can buy or fly in real life. I dig it, I get it, and I love it.

Looking forward to your work on the DC-3 and know it will be great as always.

FSX does come with a DC-3, but it has problems, shape errors, flight model issues, and the port engine's prop turns the wrong way. It simply falls short of the mark.

Not to mention that from the VC, the right wing and engine does not exist nor
does much of anything behind the cockpit seats. A pretty sad case, IMO.

I have a new default model that I compile to include all of that in which you have mentioned not around. but the only problem with it is that the animation for the elevators are stuck. But otherwise it is all fixed. Even made it to be Fully Chrome. one big shiny birdy
 
Making FSX models is like making scratchbuilt models....you either know how to make them or you don´t!!!!

Sufferin' succotash, Sir! Those are spectacular shots, and I love the detail.

And while it may sound like small potatoes to most folks, I note that the little door behind the pee-lot's window opens (I think it's called the "Mail Door"?)!! If there's one detail I truly appreciate in an aircraft's modeling, it's having ALL of the doors operate.

This one's shaping-up to be a real winner, by gum!
 
Hi,

It will be interesting to see what this model offers over the in development Vertigo studios C-47/DC-3.

Very,very nice,Martyn:ernae:

Would a paradrop effect be possible in FSX? Any plans for an AC-47? :)

There are clues earlier on this very thread...now where did I put that MiniGun...:engel016:

This is "The Argonia"one of the lead ships in the first waves on D-Day.

Thank you, Ken, that's highly appreciated and you bet we'll be putting our best foot forward to make sure that our current FS9 version cannot even stand in the shade of our upcoming native FSX iteration. :)

Cheers,
Jan

that makes my neck skin tingle

Dc-3 = the greatest flying machine pound for pound ever made to this date - can't wait to see what you are bringing to FSX

Thank you in advance

yes the FSX included version falls a little flat in many ways - in spite of which I still can't stay out of it...

personally I would never say that there are too many of any given type in FSX - I love to see the work done and the detail put into these 3d models ..I guess I'm either the ideal customer or a soft touch.:wavey:

WOW look at those screenies !
