  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

Uses the same textures! How nice is that. Magnificent! The only visual glitches I saw were the edges of 2 button polygons peeking out on the left hand top corner of the glare shield on the instrument panel, and a wee bit of 'dirt' on the edge of the prop disc- a wee ball of left over line ends, or a hole on the texture maps?
Yowza! what a beauty! I must get going and finish up the ASW weapons packs. Just need a Nuclear Depth Bomb effect.

Works for me in P3dV2 (and FSX DX10) but I had to tweak the mdls with Mdlmatxx to eliminate the reflective bodywork and vc.
Can you share what those tweaks were please? Using MDLMatXX is a slow process of trial and error. . .knowing exactly what you changed and to what would be very beneficial.
 
Just Installed the latest posted by Team KBT , they obviously read the issues did the fix's and it worked straight away:encouragement:
 
Great job KBT! The new VC looks great! Same for the external models and skins!

(shameless plug/request for Aero Union model :wink:)

I posted this at NZFF to hi-light this superb piece of freeware :cool:
 
Now which P3 variant is the one with the AWAC dome?? I can't remember it's official name, but I did see it RW at KSAT with DHS markings recently. I can report I have the P3 now working in P3D V1.4.
 
You know. my Dad was in for 30 year. I spent all of my childhood around these planes. I never noticed that. I talked to my Dad about and yes you are right. Maybe I was to awe struck to notice.

Great pics guys.

The P-3AEW&C had the dome. They were converted RAAF Bs. That one I had to look up.
 
I think it all depends on the power setting youre watching them fly at. As an example, most of my firefighting shots the exhaust isnt evident... They're usually diving down with no throttle. When they're in a typical cruise speed, level flight, they don't smoke a whole lot. :)
