FSD International Fall Prices... advice?

I see there is a fall price reduction at FSD (seems like a great price for these models), however I am running FSX SP2 Acc. and was looking at the Cessna 337, Navajo, Saratoga, or the Seneca... I would like to pick up one or two of the models, however I am not sure if there are problems are how they look in FSX. I currently have all of the Carenado lineup, however I like the panels of FSD and the Cessna 337 is a favorite. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated. I own the Porter and love flying it....

Thanks in advance!
 
True. They are ports that were optimized for FSX back in 2008 for the latest versions. I have had no problems with them. The O2A is a favorite. The O2A does come with a .dds model as well, so .bmp files can be converted for that one.

luftwulf, it sounds like you have their Porter already. If the Porter runs fine in FSX for you, and looks okay to you, you shouldn't have any problems with the C337/O2A set. Sean Doran did a lot of repaints for all 3 types.
 
I got the Saratoga, 337, porter and the Navajo and i must say the Navajo has been one of the best buys from me out of the fsx GA range (All the above planes are worth it!) i wish i have got my A into G and got these years ago. Had it for a month now and its got 24 more hours than the Seneca:kilroy:
all i do is change the VC panel setting to background_color=1,1,1 to fix the shine in the cockpit
I do this for all my ports.
Enjoy

Thanks guys...picked it up and I am enjoying it.... however, did notice some texture bleed in the instruments within the VC....

May pickup the Navajo as well, but I believe there are some issues there as well..
 
all you do is change the VC panel setting to background_color=1,1,1 to fix Texture bleed
Go to your panel folder open the panel config folder scroll down to VC1 and change background_color=1,1,1 Back up first :ernae:
Now no isues on all FSD planes for me :)
