Not MIL, BUT Project Airbus A380 with VC Released!

Think perhaps they got a little rushed with the packaging, to get it out there.
Despite a "livery installer", there is no way you'd get it working as there are model files missing in the sub-variants.

I cobbled together a Lufthansa version in the end, but could not produce a 2D panel.
The VC is not bad, though perhaps not in the league of the POSKY B777.

Still, a significant FS9 aircraft, and one that fills a much-needed freeware slot.
I still rely on my Overland A380 after all these years...
 
ahh it is a tricky one to set up, you download the base pack which has the base -800 variant (Contains the main model files) and 3 other main variants folders 841, 842 and 861 if i recall, when you download a texture from there it comes with an auto-installer, if you drag that into corresponding model folder then run the BAT file, she's all set, the .cfg automatically gets written for that paint. no 2D but with a VC this nice.... wowzers.... i'm already touring with the thing :D
 
No problems for me getting it together.Did a bit of a "airshow" from both inside and out,very nice!
For me this ones a keeper!:applause:
 
What an odd sound, like my hound when I accidentally stood on her tail.....
and a little like me when she sunk her get even fangs into my calf. lol

Not a lover of modern tubeliners, but I will have to hunt this one down and try her out.
 
I never paid much atention to the previous releases due to the lack of a VC but now that it has one I installed it; I wasn't disappointed! :applause:

BTW the sounds are aliased in an odd way that doesn't work; the variants are aliased to the -800 but that's aliased to the default 737; since you can't 'double-alias' in Fs the sounds do not work. Copying the sound.cfg from the -800 to the others or installing a real soundset in the -800 solves the sound issues.
 
I downloaded the files from the site Smoothie linked to.

I don't know how to open a '7Z' file. Advise please?

Edit: Found zip files on AVSIM, so I've got it sorted. Thanks.
 
I tried to open it with what my Windows 7 uses to open files. I don't have winrar, used it one time on my previous computer and it changed the format for every zip file I had to a winrar platform. Then I began getting messages that winrar was not free and stated that I was in violation if I used it any further without paying them.

99% of downloaded models are opened efficiently with what is on the Microsoft operating system. I find it hard to understand why some people try to change zip file program platforms when Microsoft operating platform handles the job very nicely.

I guess I'll pass on this model. It does look to have a very nice VC though.

Thanks.
 
okay, :salute: there are also 7zip progs for free. But I also don't understand this ... rar and zip are the most usual progs...

7-Zip (Check my previous post) can open RAR and Zip files too; the difference is that 7-zip allows for a much higher compression, giving a smaller filesize. Once you get used to 7-zip there's no need for winzip or winrar anymore.
