• 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.

Gmax Source Available

I will list here some links to download gMax source for FS2004 aircraft I have modeled. You may use the gmax source below as long as the caveats listed are adhered to.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From Milton Shupe,

I grant permissions for my gmax source to be used to enhance any simulation and I am happy to make a contribution as long as the following caveats are understood and adhered to:

You may use the gmax source for reference, parts, or you may improve on it and release it as freeware as long as there is free access to the freeware (i.e. no membership fees required to get to it). You must mention in credits that the original source copyright belongs to Milton Shupe and that I give permission for its use, modifications, and redistribution. (This hopefully keeps hundreds of people from writing to alert me. :). The original source may not be redistributed.

If you choose to re-release the model with your modifications, you may not use any other part of the originally released MSFS model package or panels, gauges, sounds, textures, or flight model (.air file and aircraft.cfg). These items are copyrighted by other individuals, not me.

That means that after your mods, you must remap for textures, provide your own gauges, textures, sounds and flight model.

Have fun!

I have uploaded most of my aircraft gmax source as of May 2013 to the SOH library here:

http://www.sim-outhouse.com/sohforums/local_links.php?catid=8&linkid=16504


Some minor variants were not included.
This package does not include the Grumman Tracker series of 13 aircraft models. Will try to get them uploaded soon.

There you have the FS2004 VC based models. Contact me with questions.
 
That's most generous, Milton; thank you! :d Progress shot of my own wip coming shortly.

Milton,
Enjoy the B26 Invader and am having steering issues on ground taxi.
i.e. the left/right turns are not as sharp as they should be and so I
have to use the F11/F12 differential brakes to steer the plane
in a more responsive manner. What do you suggest for a fix to
make it steer a bit sharper then it is. Thanks in advance...
 
I was recently asked if I would share the gmax source code for my old (2003) version of the F9F-2 for another project. If anyone else is interested in it, you can download it from this link: http://www.mudpond.org/F9F2_gmax.zip

Please follow the same general terms of use for this one as Milton lists above.
