C17

Nice shots Mr.Mugel, however having purchased the Alphasim model, I'm sticking with that but for a freeare aircraft this looks reasonably good
 
That is just awesome UKMIL!! I have been looking for a nice freeware C17 for quite a while and this is IT! :) I live close to McChord AFB and see them fly over daily. Now I can finally FLY one!!! :jump:

Look at the screenshot posted by Wilycoyote at post #51.
The HUD support structure is totally black, it seems that it is not textured.
Same goes for the parts that are under and behind the rudder pedals.
It's just an impression from the screenshot. I'm at the office so I can't download and test right now.

the hud mount is not textured, as is black, so that explains it
 
Ok, I just wanted to check if it was normal. Thanks for the info.
I could not test the bird yet. My FSX refused to start for an unknown reason. Fortunately, a system restore to the day before brought it back to life, but consummed all of my free time :/
 
no probs, i never saw the point in texturing a jet black part? anyway, PSD paintkit is being uploaded now to UKMIL, will be available this evening

It looks funny in-sim though...the untextured black looks like a formless void of darkness. In real life (to me at least) when I look at something that's black, I can still see the contours of it and a bit of texture.
 
Missing Texture

Is anyone else seeing this, only on the right side over the wheel wells.
Tried 5 different textures and still the same.

Thanks,

tc
 
these issues are now being addressed along with fixing the VC throttles which have no reverse thrust on them

so, I will now texture the Hud, and fix these other items, a patch will be released
 
ok, the Hud is now textured, the hole has been filled, and also added reverse thrust control to the VC throttles. I will wait and see if there are any more problems before releasing a patch
 
Many a/c these days are released with internal reflections on windows and dirty glass reducing visibility out the windows. Pardon my saying so, but the windows and hud of the C17 are particularly "dirty", or have to much opacity and reflection of the sun. Would be very nice if they were more transparent or totally so in alternate set of windows and hud.
