Attention Rotorheads - new Nemeth/Milviz Huey UH-1C and H available

Is anyone trying to make an UH-1V? I had a lot of fun in them.

can anyone correct me if im wrong, there is no spec mapping for the h model only C

im trying to do a polished metal variant and for the love of christ, i cant find them
 
I just had a look Matt, can't find them either. Really odd that the C has them but not the H. You could try making a really shiny one from the main texture to see if specular is even applied to the model. Something to add to the next patch!
 
performance question

Hello everyone,

I have another frame rate performance question...

How do you determine what version (patch) you have installed? I bought the Huey about a week ago from PCAviator's store, and nowhere in the installed software can I find what version it is...and my account on PCAviator doesnt seem to have that info either. I"m hoping its an older version, because the performance is horrendous to the point of being unflyable. :( I even tried resizing the textures, didnt help much at all. I think its the model. Frame rates with the Huey are just over half that of the CS 757 Pro and stutters are constant and continuous...and considering the simplicity of the systems, I cant imagine why...? The only other aircraft I've had stutters with is Dino's Tomcat, but they went away with the latest versions... but this is the only aircraft i've ever installed with such low framerates.
 
Hi pa-pilot,
There is no single patch. All installers have been replaced (AFAIK), so the PCAviator version should be the current version. There are a lot issues mentioned at the beginning of this thread, which have been fixed with the updated release (e.g. here: http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/showthread.php?t=21382&page=5).
I don't think that the latest update is already released.
Are there any news about the new update?
It's not the most performance friendly aircraft i have, but it's very detailed. I don't have problems in normal areas but i wouldn't fly it in complex areas (large cities etc.).
It's a very gorgeous model.

EDIT: just checked my Simmarket account for updates, but it's still the ND-uh1_fsx.exe with <small>348.61MB</small>
 
Thanks for the response JT8D. And I do agree that its a wonderfully done model, it seems its just a little too wonderful for my machine. Looks like with the new amazing high poly releases, I'll have to start being careful what I buy.
 
Guys - should it be clean or dirty - or an inbetween? Still got lots of dental work to do!!

ready to upload, fictional repaint of Special Operations Group, Vietnam. And thanks to Jeansy for the pilot psd file. Im also playing with the C model dds files to get the rotor blades to render in a darker or lighter color so they are not always green when you fly the H model, seems the C model dds files in the texture.h1 file are all green and those are the files that render on the H model (I think).
