I think I jumped in too soon. I've paid and am waiting to be redirected to the merchant's page...for ten minutes now and no e-mail.
 
After another 10 minutes with no progress I ended the process so it'll be interesting to see when I get a receipt and a download link.
 
Instead of here I think it would have been a good idea to start a new topic of the Champs release
 
Okay folks, the work on the Ford has progressed as you can see.
Tom informed me that the sound files will be pure music.
When in idle, it seems that the engines would die at any moment as it should be with those cantankerous radials. And when the throttles are opened they start to purr.
 
Norman, the Tri-Motor is looking really spectacular! I'm a big fan of those smoky old things. To really get the benefit of your modeling and texturing in screenshots, however, you might want to compress the jpegs a bit less. The engine shot above, in particular, is so heavily artifacted that it's hard to make out the details.
 
Okay folks, a lot has happened in the meantine.
The Trimotor is now very close to being released.
You will love the price for such a detailed and comprehensive package!

Norman, I did a PW-2800 for the P-61 that was not even close to the detail of your engine...and it was still a lot of work! What you have done is amazing! :salute:
 
ive a dumb question....im set up for twin engine operations,i could go and make my yoke throttle work...but that would be somewhat akward to work while flying....can the middle engine be ,slaved so to speak,to say the left engine? i have the ch products throttle quads,,oh heck....now that ive fixed my rudder problem i may just reinstall both quads and all my 4 engiened honeys.........
 
Hmm, this could prove promising. The champ could be fun, it's out now right? Any word on how it handles?

You have fsupic? There you can "slave" engine #1 to #2 . Either one should be the middle engine, I guess.


Cheers,

@N2056

Thank you for your kind words :jump:
Very judicious use of textures has a lot to do with the overall effect and can easily double the perceived poly count.


@Tracon

Yes, the Aeronca has been out for quite a while and has also received some updates on the airfile.
I personally love flying it although I rarely enjoy flying my own models.
By the time they're released, I have spent way too much time on them and just want to get away from them as far as possible...LOL...
