There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

Fokker EV DVIII update 1
- Thread starter Klein
- Start date
This is an authorised re-work of Gary Aumaugher's fabulous Fokker DVIII, that was available on the "Aerocrate" web site.
The model is from Gary Aumaugher and team, and was re-worked By Martin Klein with ModelConverterX, Gmax and SCASM to provide the most animations and the best rendering possible with multiple specularity levels materials, as an accurately detailed cockpit.
The original Fokker EV / DVIII cockpit was rather spartan with a minimum of instruments, the Virtual Cockpit was modified in this way, with dedicated authentic gauges.
The aircraft.cfg and Fok_D8.air file are from John Fortin ( Aka Polar Lion ).
John's original .dp file was slightly modified to permit bullet holes and damaged textures swapping animations to the model.
The panels BMP's are from Kevin Driver, the Fokker _d8.gau is from Martin Klein
The sounds are from the West Front Team Fokker EIII.
The Fok DVIII livery is the original one modified to fit the new model, the four other liveries are from Martin Klein, and depict a jasta 6 Fokker EV, august 1918, a Fokker DVIII flown by Hans Goerth, MarineFeldJasta III in october 1918, a Fokker DVIII flown by Theodor Osterkamp, MarineFeldJasta II in october 1918, and finally a Fokker DVIII flown by Gotthard Sachsenberg , MarineFeldJasta I, october 1918.

Awesome work, thanks very much!!
Martin, thanks for the pointer. However, looking around the Free Flight Site gave me only two WW1 Fokker aircraft - a Dr.1 which does not appear to be by Gary, and an Eindecker which is by Aeroplane Heaven.
Can anyone give me a pointer to Gary's Aerocrate planes, please ?

Hi Rohan !
You go to the Free Flight Site page, look on the left for the links, choose "WW1 for CFS2", and on the right follow the link "Original Aerocrate Aircraft Page" ( I agree it's not really obvious, such a small link for so great treasures ), now on the right of the Fokker DVIII picture you click on "download", here is the link if you don't find it, but it's worth to have a look at all the other planes

As I mentioned in a thread in July, I'm tempted to duplicate all the great work by Gary and others on the Free Flight site in the main CFS2 library. There are already downloads by Captain Kurt, Allen, John Fortin and Cees Donker duplicated.
Dave "No Dice" Mulcahy did some great work, but his Free Flight Site is a bit convoluted with some download locations not obvious.
Perhaps all the Aerocrate downloads could be in their own category in the Legacy section.
Any ideas?

Kevin, the one big problem with the existing Free Flight Site is the lack of a search facility. Duplicating the files in the Resources library would at least give us a way of doing that. At the very least, I think that the Aerocrate files would be the most beneficial additions,,
