Messerschmitt 108 Taifun SP 1 Released

SOH-CM-2024
Go get it while it's hot! :)
Service Pack 1 includes, apart from a few minor bugfixes and cosmetic texture improvements, a number of new features and functions:
The pilot now has company in the cockpit. New passenger figures on all seats are visible in exterior view, configurable using a new manager interface. The new real time manager provides quick access to fuel and payloads and to a number of commonly used simulation commands.
In preparation for the comming cold season there is now a visible and audible preheating aggregate available that facilitates engine cold start and helps avoiding engine wear.
For a complete description of all features please visit the Bf108 product pages at www.classics-hangar.de and download the updated user manual.

Existing customers can redownload and reinstall the product at no cost at their vendor's website.

The updated installation files are as of today available to customers of the Classics Hangar Shop and Simmarket. FS Pilot Shop customers will be able shortly to redownload the fully updated product.

And here's a selection of screenshots depicting some of the new features:

I am downloading now....awesome!!!

Some quick questions
- do I need to uninstall the old one first ?
- do I need to reinstall the popular soundmod3, prop mod and viewmods ?

Thanks so much for this free gift upgrade !

Very grateful.

EDIT: from reading page 27 of the new manual it refers to "Cold and Dark". My guess is we have to shut down the planes switches ourselves and then save it "cold and dark" (by saving the flight) and then upon reload of the saved flight we can use the "pre-heater" - is that correct ?

Basically yes, the preheater works only when the aircraft is parked cold and dark and with the Just Fly Utility set to "full real".
Doesn't make sense to care for your engine if there's no ill-effect to expect anyway. :)
 
Merci beaucoup Mathias... :icon29:

Just finished downloading the new version.

Will there be access to passengers in the wartime version or is it restricted to the modern rendition of your plane ?... :kilroy:

Thanks

Fleurdelys
 
The passengers are available to all planes.
There's not really a wartime version actually.
All except D-IOIO (which is prewar civil) are depictions of Taifuns that flew post war in civil hands, even if their respective owners painted them in Luftwaffe colors.
 
Thank you so much for the update!

Lukas

Edit: Yes, the Bf108 from the Classics Hangar Shop is 1.1. I should read more carefuly, but I was so excited :D
 
Guess it would be an appropriate time to finish up those WIPs that I've had cooking for some time now... :sleep:

Cheers,

Fleurdelys
