Please share textures with me?

I was with VP-90 for a very brief time in late 1976. Was living in Indianapolis, and VP-90 would fly down to Indy's airport and pick up reservists, then bring us back Sunday evening. They had the coolest tail symbol at the time. "Lambert the Sheepish Lion". I have the textures on my drive somewhere. NC

Can you please share the textures with me if you can find them and are the textures compatible with DX10?

P3C Orion Tacpack

I am adding this here because I tried to contact Hiroaki but he is not accepting PM's and I haven't had a reply to the email I sent to him with the address that is in the README with the P3C V3.31

I would like to make this Tackpack powered like we did the S2F Tracker a few weeks ago. Respectfully want his permission before sharing anything.

Where is the P3B for FSX Dowhload

I have read every page all 29 pages and thoroughly enjoyed every reply and even downloaded some stuff that I did not know. I am currently flying the P3C V3.3 but I was personally involved in 1971 and then in 1989 with the P3 Squadrons VP60 and VP90 at NAS Glenview, Illinois. I was in the control group called OPCON-7V1 after having been in CIC Airwarfare aboard CVA-66 USS AMERICA. Guess they figured that if I could help shoot down Migs I could help sink subs.
My favorite story though is spending 3 hours in a circle pattern over an Iowa cornfield "searching for hidden subs" actually the pilot was an alumnus of University of Iowa and we listened to their basketball game against their arch-rival but for the life of me I don't remember who the rival was. Then when we returned to NAS Glenview, we landed and instead of being able to go home, we had to wait while they cooled off a hot brake with the propwash.

Anyway, I also would like to have a native P3B which was earlier mentioned kbt did but cannot find it anymore anywhere.

P3B Orion VP-60

I wish that KBT would upload the P3B Native FSX/P3D but until that time I know that this texture works with other models by experimentation. Ignore the weapons pylons on the wings.

I downloaded all the VP-60 photos I could find of the P3s that I have fond memories of at NAS Glenview. I also found scenery for NAS Glenview and 1970's Chicago O'Hare and Chicago Midway but haven't uploaded it to FSX yet so we are at NAS Whidbey Island for the photoshoot. The first shot is of the real aircraft photo I used for reference and the next 3 are shots of the texture I created over the past couple days. Notice the green deicer boots which is unique to this aircraft only. All the other photos the deicer boots are gray not even black. I found that interesting as a modeler/repainter. Hoping that KBT will read here again and post the P3B into the SOH Library. I will be sharing my repaint texture there maybe tomorrow. Gotta do 4th stuff with family in a few moments.

DX10 Only?

Is this V3.31 only for those that use DX10? Any appreciable difference over V3.30?

I am using it perfectly in FSX Acceleration Box DX9 without any problems FPS or any other problems. In fact the last post here i just finished a new texture for it.
