MV F-86F-30 TacPack Edition!

[Mach3DS]

I meant...WE are the targets! No need for AI drones... We would be doing 1v1/2v2 in Sabres. Then people can see how much fun Tacpack really is!

Just got mine with the discount. Thanks a lot Milviz!

Hi, my FSX-SE allways (4 attempts already) crash to desktop when i choose the F86 tackpack. Anyone got this problem too?

 

[Katoun]

Hi,

Make a directory in the root of your sim with the name Milviz. That should do it.

Thank you

Kat.

 

[flaviossa]

It worked thanks

I wonder what RCAF squadron this repaint represents...

Loads of fun...

Well I've had loads of fun in this F-86 TacPack already - without going into TacPack mode and blowing stuff up. Milviz, you did quite good.

Taken the Sabre out and did a successful in-air restart... some cross-countries up and down Washington State & Oregon (like KUIL to KSLE, KBVS to KHIO). It's hard when there's no autopilot to... auto-trim out the airplane, but that's part of the fun. If I wanted to program a jet computer and just worry about terrain avoidance, I'd just fly my beloved Superbug some more.

My main criticisms - hopefully constructive - would be the stock liveries need an explanation of their place in history please, the Huff dragon livery needs to reappear, and the basic manual could have a bit more data.

3.8 hours later in the Sabre, I love this thing. It's addictive. Like the little jet sportster with a big wing... you just want to learn more about how to program FSX right and to fly it right (the forums here were a big help).

I've got assurances the livery I want will be coming, so that'll be even more fun acting like a Planes of Fame demo. Excited.

Here's a few FSX screenies with Real Environment Extreme effects for ya of how much FUN this airplane is.

I wonder what RCAF squadron this repaint represents...

Dunno if the question was rethorical, but the "ship" on the tail suggest 434 squadron.

 

[DISCODAN]

434 Blue Nose SQN.

 

[JosefK]

Thanks, I checked this squadron out. Nice outfit!

Can anyone perhaps enlighten me and my gunsight? For the life of me, I cannot get the gunsight to switch on. I assume it has to be the switch near the knob to adjust the target wingspan, but nothing happens when I press it or rotate it…<o></o>

 

[n4gix]

Round knob just left of the wing-span lever. Left-click and drag right.

Thanks, n4gix, but the dimmer does not do anything; clicking, dragging, rotating the mouse wheel, nothing helps... Either I am doing something wrong or I will have to submit a support ticket with MilViz.

 

[Dimus]

Check if the pipper appears after you made the first radar contact with a target, even a dive to the ground may work. If not I would also suggest to open a ticket with Milviz.

Try pressing "Y" briefly on then off. The pipper may well be out of the gunsight window's area.

Hello Dimus and n4gix,
I was away for work but now got the chance to try out your suggestions. No luck yet.... Next step is installing the newest nvidia drivers. Will get back if and when I find a solution. Thanks for your efforts!
