Iris Battlefield airlifter. (C-27 Spartan)

Still no version 1.2 on PC aviator. yesterday's download was still marked at 1.1 in the installer.
 
PC Aviator

Had not seen anything from PC Aviator so gave them a call. Mark said v1.2 "should" be posted by Monday 10-13-14. We run in place. :running:
 
If you bought from simmarket you have to buy the plane again from the same account you bought the old model. It will recognize your account and you won't be charged. A new order will be created in your account with the link to the new version.

Dan.

Thanks Dan,
that worked for me too. Now I can finally enjoy that plane again;-)

Hmm, I noticed this big hole in VC glass, if You change a position little more. I dont remember this in 1.1.
Can You check it too?



my glass is broken ;)
 
Check the cockpit for bird feathers. Also check the condition of your face. Thanks for the heads up.

That's an issue with the HUD cone and the windshield, we've never been able to fix why that happens. :(
 
@Txmmy83:
Its a new paint made by myself;-)
I have to do some more steps before it is ready for delivery.

@David:
PLEASE consider to make a new mapping for the radom and the attachment.
It would nice, if we could paint these things in detail.
As said before, this is a well done upgrade!

Karen emailed them again the other night, received an auto-responder (the 2nd one) stating that there is a delay in communications currently. You're one step further ahead than us. We'll follow it up again on Monday evening our time, unfortunately there's not much we can do.

They've now received 3 emails from us and waiting a further week (from last Monday to this), is bothersome, however we will keep prodding them along until we know for sure the product is available. We apologise for this inconvenience.
 
C-27 Irish Air Corps

Just made a final walk around the C-27 with the fictional paint like you see it on the Casa Cn-235 of the Irish Air Corps.
Working with a new paintkit is like the first flights with a new model. You have to get familiar with all the layer, pros and conts of the delivered paintkit.
In this case, the paint itself was not the deal. The time consuming thing this time was the fact, that Iris put the "NO STEP" signs on the wings but not on the top of the fuselage.
Same goes for the decals of the upper doors. I thought about leaving them out, but than again, I knew I wouldn't be satisfied with the solution.
So it took me some time to get everything in place, but now you can see the results. One sad thing: you can't paint the radom in detail to give it the like an AWACS plane for example,
because the attachments are layerd in the same spot. Hopefully David and his team will give it a try.











Feel free to give me some feedback. If you don't find any mistakes from your point of view, I'll take here to a final flight to make some last screenshots. Than its time for delivery.

With best regards from Hamburg,

Christoph
 
hm is it only me or does the new C27_2X_T.psd missing a few very important layers that the old one has?

Hi,

Any chance for getting the real MC-27J gunship and not "the IRIS concept"?

[FONT=Verdana, Geneva, Lucida Sans, Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, sans-serif]The MC-27J is planed to receive both the GAU-23 [/FONT]30mm cannon and precision weapons, with Raytheon’s Griffin-B missile and MBDA’s Viper-E as confirmed weapons that will be fired from a ramp-mounted Common Launch Tube set. ATK’s own GPS/laser guided Hatchet precision mini-weapon is under evaluation. Airborne test firings of the cannon have already been successfully performed.

Maybe not as fancy as the fantasy
[FONT=Verdana, Geneva, Lucida Sans, Lucida Grande, Lucida Sans Unicode, sans-serif]concept, but much more likely to actually fly.. :)[/FONT]
 
Wow. This is a great update! I love the new Airlifter. It's a much cleaner, more immersive, and more fun plane than ever before (and I enjoyed it before). Thanks, IRIS.
 
@ Storm
Jeff I just checked my download at the Pilot Shop and the update was free and I got the original C-27 in 2011 when the price was cut in Dec to $10 and I cashed in my purchase points. Wonder why they are shafting you for a fee. Installing now, can't wait to fly her.

BTW, one more for STORM, can I get a copy of the CS Weapon XML doc that you made for the gunship?
