Falcon 50 in FSX

Hi folks,

sorry for warm up an very old thread,

but i have converted Yannick Lavignes Dassault Falcon50 to FSX native version,
with FS Developers ModelConverter X.
The F50 works great and looks pretty good.

I like to share my work with interested flightsimmers.
But i can not reach Yannick Lavigne to ask for permission.

I'm not a native english or french speaker, so any help to do this is welcome.
My last english lesson is forty years ago and google translator is my friend ;-)

i think i need permission from
Yannick Lavigne, Fred Banting, Rob Young ,
Eric Dantès who build the FS2004 version
and André "esmdu" ,"expat", Ludovic "vonstroheim" who has build Version 1.1
which i use for this project.

I would like to respect the copyrights and want give all credits to the original
authors and involved persons.

what do you think about that ?

Best regards

Bluebear

Good luck, Bluebear. You obviously have done a lot of work. I hope you are successful in contacting people and obtaining permission! NC:encouragement:
 
That is great news!
I'll dig into my archives for Lavigne, Fred and Rob emails, and I'll help you with this copyright issue...
 
Some of these names are well known members of the French forum Pilote-Virtuel.com.
I have created a topic over there to catch their attention :)
 
I am very glad for your help. :jump:
Thank you, Navy chief, Vonstroheim and Daube for his topic in the
Pilote virtuel forum. :encouragement:
I will prepare the package before.
And yes, it took some sleepless nights with trial and error
to do that. :dizzy:

Wow, the cockpit and cabin still look really good. You have to look twice to see that this is a 10+ year old model.
 
Hello Bjoern,

In fact, the lady looks very good for age
and it is a great pleasure to fly her.
The inner textures could be rejuvenation,
They are a little blurry,but that does not really disturb .
I've tried to improve them, but without good results.
Perhaps some texture artist can do this.
I know there are some really good ones.
i imagine, how good she would look with spec and bump
textures.

Wow!! Superb Bluebear!

Your lifting is a miracle.

Marvelous work. I hope that you can contact with the original developers and release this gem. :applause:

Keep in mind that before anyone can add spec and bump maps, they'll need to be enabled in the model's materials.
 
That's the magic of a good texturing coupled with photorealistic textures. They keep looking good for ages.
I mean, look at the Mirage F-1 by Kirk Olsson. It was made for FS2002 perhaps ? And it still looks awesome today, including the virtual cockpit. (ok, there's nothing clickable, yes... but still, it looks so nice...)
 
indeed,
with today's possibilities you can push up the look of an old airplane up to date .
Some exterior repaints look okay,
Only the interior textures must probably rebuild from scratch.
I have unfortunately no experience in creating textures, spec or bump maps.
at first I had to get involved in the topic. :dizzy:
this great plane would it be worth .

Flysimware is doing a Falcon 50!

I too installed this ole FA50 but had some issue with the VC clockspits not working right

There was a texturing problem with the original model.

Both motors are using the SAME paintkit "area" thus prohibiting any writing on them.
Better explained by this picture seen in pilote-virtuel.com

Do you think you could do something, as you have recreated the model ?
