HMS Bounty for FSX/P3D Going Beta Today

Sorry, lousy word to use. Yes I did mean that the longitudinally rigged sails were fluttering back and forth. In all cases I had a tail wind, but I only noticed the fluttering when the Bounty had problems moving (ie when FSTramp and/or tacpack was enabled). I had thought that the cause of this flutter was the wind direction, but the frequency of this flutter was pretty high (less than once a second).

Ah, thank you for that clarification. :)

Yes, if the wind is directly behind you, there is a slight wind direction variance by FS and as we switch from port to starboard on a 1 degree boundary, you will get this "flutter" as FS changes direction by a few degrees with each FS update.

The values to the left are with General realism slider all the way right, the ones to the right are with the slider to the left. As you can see, RelWind does indeed change to 0 (and the ship no longer banks.).

Thanks for the info.
All the values confirm that (IF it works in P3D, see posts on dependancies on conflicting addons in P3D) the Bounty behaves exactly the same (as to speed, roll, etc) in P3D as in FSX.

Milton;
I anchored for the night and tried to light the lamps.(1)Depending on the view selected they are not visible. (2)Additionally at night if you use the 'L' to activate the lights the salute effect occurs. No sound but the cloud of smoke appears. (3)When its completely dark the cloud becomes something that looks like St. Elmo's fire. (4)One more thing. Calling up the GPS <shift 2=""> brings up the GPS panel but no lon/lat info. The display show the position properly.

FSXA-Win7 64-FSUIPC(full)-FSTramp-ORBX Global Anchored off Cape Jackson, South Island, NZ (S40° 58' ; E174° 16')
