Alright, some FSAddon Publishing news then.....

It has been too hot and sticky to post forum messages today, but here's a heads0up on our latest aircraft to leave the hangar: Simon Smeiman's wonderful Gloster Gladiator !

You can find it in our - also new - own web store: http://silvercloud-store.com/

Now, back to my fan and ice water........

Looking good, Francois, and congratulations on the new store. Query: on p. 12 of the manual, it says, "We made some gauge needles as well as the center panel to vibrate slightly while the engine is running." Does this mean the gauges are 3D, like the RealAir Spit, Vertigo Hellcat, or Classics Hangar Fw-190?
 
To tell you the trruth, my entire desk vibrates when running FSX, so I wouldn't know. I think Simon has to answer that for us .... *grin*
 
Just bought it but the download stops at 15mb thinking it is complete - tried 3 times.

Now trying to contact FSAddon
 
I've had that problem a few times, gajit - Francois' site is one of those I have real problems with, regardless of whether I use IE or Firefox.

My answer was a trial version of GetRight which, after a major problem downloading a just-less-than-a-gig file from another site, I registered as well.

I wish there was a way of telling what sites I was and wasn't liable to have problems with in advance!

Thanks Ian for your advice.

I tried with Getright but Getright came up with "file does not exist on this server"

I really annoys me as a frequent buyer of downloads when you have so much hassle from one or two producers yet others no probs ever with others.

Now the store had blocked access saying that ihave exceeded 10 downloads - bleeping cheek - I have not had one complete one.
 
I'm having trouble downloading too...

edit: got it on the 5th try! perseverance pays off, well, in my case anyway..

a few shots:

it certainly looks very nice! and you can fly with the cockpit open, and there's a 'guns firing' effect.

I do feel it's a bit too quiet in the cockpit though, and there's a vibration of the tail that I'm not sure of?

Still, my favorite doubledecker of the moment...
 
If Ian is correct and we cant use IE - that is just plain daft
 
I've had problems with both IE (32bit and 64bit) and Firefox, gajit - it's not browser specific, but I also know a lot of people who have had no problems at all downloading large files from the same sites I have major problems with.

"Bizarre", I think sums it up. Or "bl***y computers".

Wow Jankees - that looks great. I hope one day i will get it once they reset my downloads.

I have still not had any reply on the official site but i guess that will be the time difference.
 
I replied now Gareth. Sorry for the inconvenience. As Ian already said, some people seem to have problems with the servers from Siteground in the US (where I have all my sites hosted), and most have no problems.

Tonight was Nina's birthday party, hence the lapse in replies for a few hours ;-) 'She who must be Obeyed' always comes first.

I have increased your number of downloads (want to take that limit off altogether actually, but haven't figured out how to do that yet). I have also uploaded the file to another server... maybe that one runs better for ya.

Will send you another e-mails.

Webshops are new to me and not the easiest of things to cope with, I can tell you.

Begging for some patience ! Thank you !

Kind regards,
Francois
 
Jankees, may I ask what the roll rate is like for the Gladiator?

I have the Incarus Gold Gladiator and it's roll rate is quite unrealistic - it's rate would rival the Fw190. It put me off so much I consigned it to the 'never to be flown again' folder.

How does this model handle?
 
jankees, you said

"I do feel it's a bit too quiet in the cockpit though, and there's a vibration of the tail that I'm not sure of?"

Do you have a force feedback stick ?? can you see elevator flutter in outside view ??
 
Hi Francois

I dont know what to type first - my thanks for your superb aftersales service or my thanks for a superb product.

This aircraft has amazing detail - so much so that I spent over 30 mins on the ground just enjoying the way it looks.

I sincerely hope that you have an awardwinning best seller with this one.

My thanks X2 again

Regards

GJ
 
Amazing detail, excellent frame rates, great sounding and a realistic "feel" to the flight dynamics.
I agree that the engine noise in the VC is perhaps a bit quite but not so bad. Love the firing guns and the vibrating instrument panel section.

Glad we got that sorted GJ :jump:

I'll be spending my Saturday now trying to figure out this server and what can be done to solve the download issues ..... :)

Have a great weekend !

Click to expand...

No to both of them.
It's more in the outside view, where the tail seems to be vibrating/stuttering, I don't know exactly how to describe it. Could be my comp, I'll continue flying...I'm loving it!

eehm, Francois, any chance of a paintkit?
