FlightSim Developers P38 Now Released

[gajit]

Sorry - can you confirm that we will have to download the whole lot again in a while?

 

[Tim_FSD]

If you have been getting an error 1173, try the new installers I just uploaded. You might want to download the smaller of the two to save some bandwidth.

Let me know this this corrects the issue.

Hmmm...

At this early stage am hanging back a bit before attempting install. May redownload the full installer again later if need be,
though here is what is being shown after downloading:

Looks good to go file-sizewize, guys, to me anyway.
.

The misery not yet come is to be avoided... & ole boxcar needs no mo o'dat here now.

Holdin' back a tad here, no rush.

It looks like the 329MB is the final file size. Im downloading it myself to give it a try. Give it a go!

Roger that, Kevin. *takes deep breath* Am going in. Will report soon.

I'll be waiting over @ SeaTac!

Love that Red Bull aircraft..modern avionics going to be nice with RTW... was up to 330 knots@ 12K.

 

[gajit]

Mine seems to have installed - just starting up FSX again!

 

[Gibbage]

I fly into Renton myself. I live in the area BTW.

 

[gajit]

Oh dear - frame rates are struggling over 11fps in external views over sea!! Smooth inside the cockpit - its a bit like the probs with the Nemeth Huey

 

[JRC]

New installer (329 MB) worked great. No problems. Looks great!!

I noted with this aircraft turning off aircraft shadows and ground shadows would greatly increase framerates on less powerful machines .

Aircraft shadows almost double the number of polygons being drawn.

that was my main fear

Dont have that prob on others. Do the textures look right on this?

 

[Gibbage]

Something is amiss. Do you have your cabin lights on by chance?

 

[gajit]

Yes sir

 

[Gibbage]

Thats why the dash looks a little bad. At night its a better effect.

Couple of screen shots=Great Aircraft!

Great Aircraft
Very Frame Rate Friendly!!

Highly recommend this one!

This plane is beautiful. And I love the modern cockpit in the Red Bull one. Nice option. A little different. I did notice I have an invisible pilot "bon homme" flying my plane. See? Not a huge deal for me, but I know this would be big for others.

Hit "Shift 1"
You will see 4 different avaitars
The first one is for the pilot-click on the green bar until it turns red and now you have a pilot!

Manual is in the FSD Folder under Programs

IMNSHO If you have your scenery settings dialed in and don't have performance issues with other aircraft, payware included, you shouldn't ever have to mess with the settings again to "accommodate" an addon aircraft.

Interesting that some here are getting great performance and others not so great, wonder what the differences are.

Congrats on the release guys, hope it does well! :ernae:
